    Hi, just wanted to say thank you for a simple but informative video. I haven't welded before so I looked at 'welding for beginners' etc, but they were useless. You took it out the box, wired it up and and gave a simple demonstration. As you know, real men don't need instructions! 🤣🤣.
    Thanks 👍🏻

    Flux Core is so underrated . it may not produce eye candy welds like gas mig or tig but it's just as good and can weld outside

    We have used the ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

    Never use an A/C flux core machine as they are very difficult - always buy a D/C one. Never use the flluxcore wire that comes with the machine for anything but practice - buy some good stuff for real jobs. Practice plenty before trying to do real welds - particularly on thin material. Enjoy.

      @@cestvraimenthorrible3465 My first flux core machine was an A/C one and it is very difficult to use - I no longer use it. You will find videos of people using the with some success but they are normally very experienced or well practiced on the machines. Because the polarity reverses with the mains frequency of 50/60 Hz they cause a lot of splatter as well and burn through thin material. DC is a lot more friendly for the novice (as long as you set the polarity correctly for flux core) and is much easier to become proficient with. If the Parkside is DC then it should be fine. I love my DC welder which like the Parkside was very affordable.

      My Harbor Freight welder was 125 amp, AC output. It was slightly better than a hot glue gun. I converted it to DC electrode negative (DCEN). It made a whole new machine out of it. I took on a rather large project with it. I mounted a hydraulic cylinder on my HF motorcycle lift. I had to fabricate and weld the mount for the cylinder. The welds had to withstand 9,000# of force to lift a 1,000# motorcycle. I've been using it for about 3 months and the welds are holding well. Harbor Freight sells a 125 amp welder that is DCEN for a little more money. I bought mine not knowing anything about welding. The one advantage mine has over the one that's already DCEN is that it will accept a 10# spool of wire and the one that comes DCEN will only take a 2# spool. If that isn't an issue for you, I'd recommend buying the one that's already DCEN.

    I can tell you first hand that this is a dreadful machine - I have one - however I also have the more expensive Parkside multi-process welder, which I use to run flux core & it is a little belter of a welder. Excellent machine, can't say enough good things about it.

    • @laszlovona
      @laszlovona 3 роки тому

      3mm you would want to set wire speed to 4-5, and start with heat (voltage) from D+ till you find the sweet spot while lowering it.. (aka lowest spatter and smoothest sound of arc) btw this method is common for all MIg/fcaw welding.. you usually set the wire speed first and then find the proper heat for it...start with high heat and lower.. for 1mm?? ehh.. that would be a bit difficult...no continuous bead for sure.. try wire speed 1.with heat A-B and try tacking.. (all what I said goes to a 0.8-0.9 wire)
