Oh, and I do have a jar of nozzle gel.

I'll buy that for a dollar.
Good job of troubleshooting.
Good beads Ed, but they look a tad cold. Bump up the voltage knob a bit next time and you'll notice that the edges will "wet out" better and flow into the parent metal more smoothly, and not have the lumpy outline.
(Unless you were in Auto-Set mode - in which case you would bump up the wire feed instead.)
