Eating my words
Last post I mentioned my 6013 rods were “purt-much crap”.
Well, being the cheap-ass frugal squirrel I am, and not wanting to write off $25 worth of rods, I said to self “Self, ya have the means, flip that polarity and just see,,,”
So I did.
‘Purt-much crap’ turned into “wholly whomuguzzits, thats cool!” The box states DCEP, AC, or DCEN. Well, DCEN took the crown here. I haven’t AC function on this Lincoln, but I’d bet these burn pretty good on that too. They do not like the electrode positive and I flipped back just to verify; all the original problems I was having came right back.
Now I know.
And Yeah, I’m practicing.
A lot.
Not just while building the trailer up. I set up a 6g test setup and I’ve been .working that too. Who knows, maybe by the time Duh!kee and I can take first place, I’ll be ready to drop a couple bills and get certified by AWS as well. That means more than just laurels on the wall: more like $$$ and around here, thats slim pickens most days ,unless you work the mines or the gas wells in some form.
