Gas Not Getting To Nozzle

[EdK]

I got sick of running beads so I tried welding on an actual project. Didn't do so good, cosmetically anyway, but I think the welds will be plenty strong for the project. The first picture I made two passes because the first pass didn't fill in the area. I should have done a weave on it to fill it in one pass. This is welding 1/8" steel to 1/4". I have three more of these to weld so I'll try the weave technique on the next one.
