    Those vertical welds on the slider are a bitch and yours look good. You run those beads top to bottom?

    Yea, top to bottom. I had trouble going up, I'll try again in the future now that I have improved.

    Yeah I can only weld vertical going to top to bottom. If I try to go uphill my puddle runs right back down haha. I've tried different heat settings and gun motions and can't get anything to work

    I think maybe running a little fast might help because you won't keep the heat in the same place for long. The puddle might cool instead of drip

    Probly right. I moved a little faster on the horizontal overhead welds, not staying in the puddle so much, and it helped prevent the "dripping"

    Welds are looking good! Vertical uphill is a total PITA, I still can't manage to master that shit, I always end up going downhill even though uphill is stronger. As many times as I've watched this video, trying to watch the puddle and keep a consistent gun angle while jamming the MIG gun there is easier said than done.

    I wanted some nice battery terminals to keep the wires neat looking, I found these made by knukoncepts. They are sweet, they accept one each 0 guage, 4 guage, 8 guage, and a bolt on the side for ring terminals
