My First MIG welds

[High Plains Mopars]

i say its a litle "coold" turn it up a litle bit and move slower i think it wold be perfect sorry for my bad english

I think it looks cold too. The bead appears to be laying on top of the bar instead of having a smooth transition into the bead. Did you cut a groove into one of the pieces or just butt two pieces of 1/4" together?

You might also consider working with thinner material. I mean, how often are your going to be welding 1/4" plate together? Most stuff on cars is thinner than that.
