[QUOTE="Bigwrench, post: 447562, member: 13822"] Thanks for the tips on warpage control , I actually had to deal with that today, was just getting ready to post about that lol and I didn’t think about the wet rag! I did use scrap aluminum panels with heavy steel billet cutoffs on top of them to sorta heat sink away from the weld areas. I cranked the amps up to 130 and after tacking it I would weld for like 4-5 inches and then stop and let it cool and move to another area entirely just jumping back and forth. I still had some issues but I think they are fixed now with the wet rag issue if I run into that again. Thank you ! [/QUOTE]
