I will be welding with a standard 220v/200A AC stick welder. I will be welding two pieces of 3/4" thick plate togeter at a 90* angle (finished product will look like a piece of angle iron, but 3/4" thickness).
I was planning on beveling both the edges of one piece to get max penetration, and then just make multiple passes to fill.
Is this a good idea? Or can I get away with a standard fillet on the surface?
Also, any suggestions on electrodes and amperage setting?
The application is a farm implement and will be made with new/clean mild steel. Appearance is not important, but strength is.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
