Another episode of rate this weld
20 year old, 4th year mechanic. Customer brought in his tractor bucket to have a 2 inch receiver welded on. Customer has light duty trailers that he’d like to move around the property. MIG, 19 volts, 245(?) wire speed, .035 inch, 75% argon 25% CO2. Welds were very similar along each edge and I did not weld the back side as to not weaken the base material. 2 passes. Looking for tips, critiques, and everything in between to make it even better next time.
