[QUOTE="CHOP SHOP, post: 1481569, member: 17493"] Flux core is garbage and has NO bizz being used in our hobby/sport. Unless you are making excavator buckets or welding up old dirty semi trailer then leave the flux core and dual shield to the huge dirty stuff. You need a bottle and either .023 or .030. I would prefer the .030 but your machine might not burn it in real great. If it doesnt make enough heat to burn .030 then you might try .023 and turn the wire speed up a little more. The welder can put more of its power in the base metal and not waste some much of its (limited) power just melting the thicker .030 [/QUOTE]
