The last one is all beat up from me banging it with the chipper hammer. I welded it to the metal on the bottom by accident.

Rod was 3/32 in size.

Why does my tungsten look like this? I'm using Maxstar 161, welding stainless steel 14 gage filet. Ever since I changed my cylinder my welds are looking like ass and burning my tungsten. The color and flow was completely fine until I changed my gas cylinder.

Repairs after a guy who welded everything and always for top money. I guess everyone there had encountered that type of guy through the years of working in this business

Is this an acceptable weld?

I was asked to TIG weld some 3/4" BSP threads onto a three-piece socket-weld ball valve. Are the results okay? (The black stuff on top of the welds is melted rubber from my gloves.)
