Does anyone have any experience doing any down hill pipe? Or ever take an API 1104 test? Got any pointers on how to go about downhilling? Been trying some lately with a little success, but I'd like to be better.

crank it up brother, you need to run hot enough to blow slag out of the way,dont be scared to move your rod around to manipulate your puddle, you will be amazed at what cant live in a hot puddle,ive made over 2000 pipe welds down hill and you can beleive, without a single repair.

thanks for the advice. by manipulating the rod, do you mean I should try and whip and pause or just side to side, to tie in? I've just been dragging it straight down with no manipulation. Do you run the "penny gap and penny land" or something else? thanks in advanceSA-250 Diesel
