Re: wire feed welder ?
Is it a wire feed? Solid wire or Flux core? or Stick welder?

Re: wire feed welder ?
it is an AC flux core wire feed. welds good for what I do. just lots of berries
in corners or tight areas. Rod |

Re: wire feed welder ?
There are better grades of flux core wire..Hint: Don't use the stuff that comes with it.

Re: wire feed welder ?
I have a Century (Lincoln) Flux Mig.
Like Mark said, the amount of splatter depends on the brand of the wire. I only use Forney and Lincoln and the amount of splatter is minimum. |
