Stick welding a steel rack out of scrap pipe - 6 part video series

Those are very good looking weld beads! E6010 is my favorite type of stick electrode.
 
6010 is a great rod for deep penetration's, similar to 6011. Lots of spatter though, I prefer 7018 , or 7024 for flat.
 
It's not too bad, just gotta keep your arc length tight. I did not have to use my chipping hammer to scrape off any BB's. Just wire-wheeled it and good to go.
