I'm used to old-school welding with a stick, and just gacking it in hard & deep.
Today at work I needed to do some welding, but all there was was this box with a stinger with a tiny piece of wire sticking out of it.
I hooked up the ground, plugged it in, turned some switches & dials, and touched the stinger to the metal.
Nothing.
I looked at the stinger and seen a trigger on it.
I squeezed it and wire came out.
I touched it to metal again, nothing.
I squeezed the trigger and SHAZAM, i'm welding!
I got the job done, but i'm not quite sure how you coordinate distance from project with how much wire you feed out.....and those dials.
I'll getter' fingered out, i'm sure.
Who da' man?!
