Also try a adjusting torch, Thats what the gf has.. She HATES foot pedals..


I'm sure I did, still getting the feel for this thing, controlling both hands and the foot pedal all at once is not as easy as some people think. One thing I need to do is make my work bench taller, I find I need to lean over my work a little too much, being more comfortable will only help. I'm not and don't plan to be any pipe or structural welder so I'm not at all concerned with being able to weld perfectly in all positions.

Better foot pedal, more comfort and more seat time will all help for sure.



Try a hand control torch it MIGHT be easier.. it's a dial you can move around with your thumb as your going.. that way you can PUT ALL pressure on your legs you want.
