Where can I improve

[u/Mosquito_Reviler]

I have been welding for around 4 months, helping here and there. I usually cut the material, but every now and again my boss will have me put something together. Before this I had never once worked in any sort of trade before.

Today I helped weld together this porch that we are making for a customer.

I think I need to be a bit more consistent on my speed. Looking for any commentary on my welds, what it is that I could maybe be doing better?

Smoother movements will make the weld look more consistent. Watch the puddle and keep moving.

If that last photo is a down hand, then up your heat a bit and see how that works.
