Good job bringing up wire size as #1 thing - the minimum current to melt .035 wire is twice the current required to melt .023 wire, that is why the wire size increments are what they are and why sizing the wire to the material is important. Great videos!

I taught myself to MIG weld when I was 18, i'm 52 now and still have the same welder, which I use regularly, despite over 30 years experience, I still learned a few things watching this. Thanks for sharing
