That turned out awesome. Just imagine welding all that with a stick welder🤣🤣🤦‍♂️

[@coreyadams4129]

Imagine if a guy had an endless supply of wrought. You wouldn't need the texture tool. I love it, I was pumped to see that you made a video out of it.

[@FeatherHorseforge]

I have over 10’ of 1 1/2 or there abouts of bolt grade wrought iron with more to go and get.

[@jaehallett3743]

It was forth it looks good, but more importantly you like it. You are going to see it all the time, with pride.

John, that is absolutely spectacular. Nicest shed I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@SushiKing123NorskGaming]

Even though you will be forging leaves for the nest 57 years we will still be here to watch your videos, hahah. Anyways, awsome project John, got me inspired to do something similar! Looking forward to more projects and videos, take care.

[@johnathanjones1765]

Where did you get the leaf stamp ?

[@peltiereric6497]

Your welding issues are most likely related to your machine and the process FCAW of Flux Cored Arc Welding and those little Lincoln Electric Machines are not meant for that kind of welding, it’s meant for Sheet Metal work. Now if you went and got a Gas Bottle of 80/20 Argon CO2 then you could do better but still that’s not what that machine is designed for. Newer 110/120 Machines that use Inverter Technology are much better equipped for heavier applications than the older style machines like your Lincoln Electric and most of those Newer Machines are Dual Voltage Input meaning you can run on 110/120 if that’s all you have access to or run on 220/240 Voltage and have the full potential of the machine and capabilities to weld heavier steel. There’s also new Multiprocess Machines that are a single machine capable of doing Mig Tig and Stick Welding that just require a push of buttons to change the welding process then change the leads and Gas.
