All these kids know how to weld is Wire.
You gotta love it when the tell ya that they can out weld you because Stick is to slow and all they have is a 110 wire feeder.

I use to challenge every cocky welder that I was Inspecting. That I could weld faster and have a cleaner weld with Stick than they could with wire on the flat. I bet them $1000 and I told them I would pay for the UT Testing
Everyone of them laughed at me until I pulled out the 1/4 in E7018 Electrode that I carried around with me to Stick it to the Cocky ones the larges wire they could weld with was 5/64. No one would take my bet.
I do not make that challenge anymore because they have stepped the wire size up to 3/32 and that NR305 wire has a scary fast deposit rate.
But the wanna be welders with those 110 feeders for the most part are a Joke they only think that they can weld.
