Anyway, I was wondering if when welding two different thicknesses of metal together you should bevel the edge of the thicker piece? See drawing below.
I'm assuming I should try and aim the MIG wire mostly towards the thicker piece. Is this correct?

If you prep the weld like that it should weld very nice
You will need a good 120 amps and 0.8 wire

John,
I got the .8 (.030") wire so I'll use that. Where should I aim the wire at?
