Welding Day 2

Continued learning my welds today, finished the last two I needed to do which were the lap weld and the T joint weld. Had a couple of goes at the lap weld before I got the hang of it but I got there eventually. The T joint weld was alot more difficult to get the hang of, trying to get the two surfaces molten and keep feeding the rod on this one was proving a bit of a challenge.


Close-up view of the T joint weld, its a bit messy cause I had trouble keeping both surfaces molten.


Another view of the T-joint.


The lap weld after a couple of tries.


Close up of the middle of the lap weld, took this photo to show what a proper weld looks like; A little row of coins.
