Butt weld thoughts
Posted: Mon Aug 30, 2021 6:06 am
I don't do much mig welding, and don't really have an opinion on butt weld gap for mig welding. But I thought this first video was interesting because it goes against the accepted general opinion, it is dated 2014 and may have been updated, I don't know. Maybe someone has time to test gap-vs-no gap with perfectly straight cut coupons of some size, welded with no backer, to test for distortion difference.
