Plasma Water Table Journey #3

By SCWD • August 28, 2023

It was a very eventful “Day 3″ to say the least. I started to weld and realized I was out of gas. Only that was half the problem. I get home, hook up the gas and the welds still looked like birdy doody. Turns out my connecter feeder knob was loose. I have no clue how that happened, but that would explain a lot of terrible looking welds. Now my confidence has gotten a big boost. I proceeded to double check my bevels and sure enough I didn’t go as deep as I should’ve. I got to where there was about 3/16” of an inch at the base of the bevel.

I think that would be good for proper penetration. Again, I’m using 1/4″ material. After getting all my miters squared, I placed the top frame on a flat surface.
