im currently taking a welding course at my local welding school and I am stuck on the assignment the instructor has given me, which is fillet weld t-joint with a 1/8" electrode. what is the best way to achieve a specified size weld. im having trouble getting the multi-pass fillet welds the right size. also he mentioned that there are occasions in the field that they will call for either a convex or concave type weld. could anyone tell me how convex and concave welds are produced when stick welding?
