Striking a proper arc and maintaining the gap between the electrode and
the base metal takes practice. A beginner may expect to extinguish any
number of arcs and freeze more than a few electrodes before acquiring
the necessary skill.
Knowing when the arc is just right is a matter of experience. A crisp,
cracking sound, accompanies a good arc. The sound is similar to that
made by eggs frying. To lay a weld bead, only 2 movements are required;
downward and in the direction the weld is to be laid. Always watch the
