    yep nice welds well you still may with a mig you can set it up to spot weld timmer or plus weld. what that will do is give you more of that pronounce row of dimes look to the weld what many like to see and is strong but many fail a weld test. the test i took out in TX they would not let you work in and out of the puddle or stop in go more or less stitch they did not want you to work the puddle they wanted to to stay in the sheild gas and wanted is much heat in the part and a hot flowing weld . but not like i said the welds that has the dimes on there side look. were a mig weld should look like a 7018 or 7024 were the machine is running in spray transfer. Tig you can get the dime look and have a very strong weld but you have to be dead steady with the torch with my screw up back it s hard less i get laid out with muscle relaxers . as for old eyes i go one up or two on the shade that helps abit as well
