2011 02 12 nbsp 0183 32 I just got hold of some 6013 1 8 rods and tried welding 6013 again Seems I might have held to short an arc because when I lengthened the arc a bit the slag pushed back in the puddle If I held a short arc the slag would kind of catch the edge of the rod and start to solidify and the puddle was hidden below the slag all the time Felt like welding blindfolded And the
