[QUOTE="tilt, post: 1481547, member: 16319"] I haven't welded in 6-7 years and I just picked up a little Lincoln mig machine (Model is an SP 125 Plus that I picked up used. Its prob 10 years old, but looks and seems to function like brand new - the settings are identical to the 140s they sell now). I am planning on doing some sliders and bumpers for my jeep. I know the limitations and that I should have gotten a 220, but I rent my place and its a condo with a small garage, so I don't really have the option for 220 at the moment. I am still a few years off from buying my own place. Anyways, I am using flux wire at the moment. It seems like the only way to weld the thicker stuff. Here are some welds on 1/8". Is this good penetration? (I know they aren't the prettiest welds, but that is why i am practicing - before delving into a real project) Any advice for using the 110 on 3/16? Bevel edges, settings, etc?
