This is a skill exercise for tig welding fillet welds.

With just a small bit of 11 ga steel, this skill exercise provides a ton of arc time on fillet welds with minimal time spent in preparation.

I ordered some of the metal from jflf.org and also got some from a local ACE hardware store (the small pieces from ACE were very overpriced but I needed them right away).

I cleaned it all using Walter 2 in 1 enduro flap discs followed by an acetone wipe.

I used a #8 furick pro clear cup for most of the welding but then switched to a Ceramic 12 furick cup.

ER70S-6 1/16” (1.6mm) filler metal at around 100-125 amps.

Aluminum backing for a small weldment like this helps a lot…especially for the tee joints where both sides are welded.
