   Hi Jody!
   Thanks a million for the manual pedal pulse video on a Lincoln square wave 175. That’s what I have and I’ve been pioneering my own peddle pulse rythem based on watching your machine pulse settings. I was also impressed to see the video about a bike builder (Mike Zangcanotto?) using the 175 like mine. Now I don’t feel quite so antiquated. Thanks again for your videos, I’ve bought 3 tig fingers and a stubby kit, Keep up all the tips!

   Jody, I enjoy your video every week. I have welded for several years but I`m the first to admit I surely do`nt know it all ( & I have a hard time with those that do )I like the fact that you are still open to new tech. ( the manual pulse ) PS your arc shots are the best. thanks SS

   Works for aluminum as well. Also, the stick out/cup size can be set to where the cup holds the tungsten just above the puddle/tungsten contamination area that we are normally on that fine line of. It’s especially useful for welders that end up welding a few joints they are not used to welding every day, instead of finally getting the feel for it on the last of a small order of a few parts. Often times, I will have 4 flanges to weld and will notice that by the time I get to the 3rd or 4th one, it is way nicer than the first, otherwise.

   Another benefit is while walking a weave from thicker to thin material and a host of other variable amperage/torch angle requirements to save from undercutting of the thinner material.

   Great video and a great topic.
