Doing a Tafe tig test atm, doing a 3G on 1/4" mild steel
Wondering if there is a differance between running up or Down.
I know there is with other welding methods, but just now wondering g if this also applys to tig.

It's only a visual test, and the teachers couldn't tig their way out if a wet paper bag.
A pass isnt up to my stds but a pass is a pass, and I can prac more when I get my own tig.

I have a soldering iron!
Oh btw it's a 2 pass.
Having prob with the 2nd pass
Been told weld is too concave
Using 1.6mm rod
Found twisting 2 rods together makes it easier as they only have that one size filler.
Using 140 amp
Number 6 cup
No gas lense

140 amps and 1.6mm filler sounds wrong to me should be at least 2.4mm plus for those amps
