Must be in the air....Was going to post a question conerning my welder
which is a WELDPAK 155. It is a 230VAC and I have added the MIG Gas
conversion kit:

Now I have never used my welder in this way and I was wondering if there
are any basic instructions/suggestions that some of you more experienced
welders could provide. I have read my manual and found very little
concerning this thus far. I am in the middle of building a Kinyon style
hammer and the welds that I have waiting are 1/2" PLATE TYPE WELDS and I
wanted good penetration for them....Don't need the hammer coming apart
ya know...ha

TIA
Mark
