=C2=A0 I've had this MIG for years. never was successful in welding anythin=
g. Now I need to weld part of the soft top and diff. extension. I got it ou=
t yesterday. It's a 220 volt Craftsman unit I am practicing on some thin me=
tal pipes. All I'm trying to do is put some weld on the pipe. It is on the =
lowest voltage setting, but I'm burning holes through the metal. I've looke=
d at YouTube videos on how to weld, but am not sure how to stop burning hol=
es. The only other adjustment I have is wire feed speed. Do I adjust this u=
p or down? Any pointers welcome.
