wot size rods are you tryin to use,

wot metal thickness, and amps?


if have problems with the rod sticking, then try stricking with less force against the metal, and more stricking across it.

as sed above, always clean parent metal up b4 weldin, inc where earth is conected (also put close as pos to where your weldin) and try turnin up the ampage,


it will all come with practise.
