MIG Weld Troubleshooting... Having Issues with your MIG Welds? (Video)

[ChuckE2009]

Goodmorning everyone!! Here's a little video I put together recently, about common problems that people have when they first MIG weld, what causes them, and how to solve them...

This video covers:

-Travel Speed (Too fast, and Too slow)
-Setting Wire-Feed Speed (Too Much wire... And Not Enough)
-Too Much and Too Little Stick-Out
-Wrong Polarity
-Shielding Gas Issues
-Welding Too Hot & Too Cold

Hope it helps... Enjoy the video, and have an great weekend everyone

Thanks for posting, Chuck. Not a MIG guy but your videos are instructional and entertaining. I watch them on Youtube for TIG tips and tricks. Would love for you to visit our fab shop near Dallas if you get up that way sometime.
