O/A welding question: tip size

Mike,

Did the tip I let you borrow help?
I am building a mount for my HF Mobile antenna mount and may need your
help.

Hope to see you at the USO Swing Dance Saturday and the Poker Run
Sunday. If you can get in my 150, you can go with me on the Poker Run.

you need to use a smaller tip. Just be sure you are getting enough of a
puddle on the sleeve as you turn down the heat.



Someone in the office suggests if I go to a much smaller tip, then the
area I'm heating will be smaller and therefore I may be introducing
stresses closer to the work.
Is that a consideration in the world of 4130? - Mike
