It's part of a pharmaceutical unit we're working on. I wish i could share more pics of the stuff but we aren't allowed to take pictures, everything is patented or pending patents.
Not particularly no, it's all in keeping everything consistent. Timing, arc gap, speed, and travel angle need to stay consistent. It sounds like a lot but it's really not
Lol. Modesty. @parisqeen- there’s fine motor control and overall skill. So a nice, consistent, straight “wave like pattern” is as easy as drawing, or painting, or playing an instrument. If you can do it, it’s easy enough- but most people who regularly use a pen or pencil still have a bit of challenge making a perfectly straight and uniform line. So most people who try their hand at welding can’t get “clean” viable welds on their first try, and it takes time and repetition to master an even speed and the eye required let alone the experience involved in knowing how a piece of different materials take to heat. In simple terms- like most skills yeah, if you repeat them enough earnestly most anyone can do it. But not everyone can, and some will pick it up faster or better. So I’m not contradicting @metalman, but I personally feel there’s some modesty to the statement. I couldn’t lay a weld like that. Maybe with more practice, but skill wise that isn’t something just anyone can just do.
Haha I agree, you're being way too humble @metalman. My uncle does welding and whenever I watch him it seems almost effortless (because he's a professional) but the skill involved is incredible and certainly visible.

Absolutely stunning
