It definitely is a art. Just trying to figure out the balancing act. Patience is key to welding. Lots to figure out as far as when to push or pull a weld. Welding one big pass or making multiple smaller welds to build up the metal. Stitching the metal or fully welding it out. I always get myself into position and rest at least one arm on something so I'm balanced well. A wider footstance while welding will help you crouch and bend around something as you weld.JSinMO wrote: [mention]Jancoe[/mention] question fits me. I have a difficult time starting with my fixed lens. Trying to get everything in place and strike the arc is a challenge for me.
When I run whatever, stick tig mig torch I have in hand and make sure I can make a complete pass without having to reposition myself during the weld. So basically a dry run on all my welds. Sounds funny but it helps.
