Anyhow the jist is that stick (arc) welders use a coating around the stick/electrode which melts,vaporizes or burns to provide a barrier/shield preventing air reacting with the molten metal.
The other odd thing is - this welder controls the welding voltage not current and it does this with 3 switches (ie 8 settings), I would have preferred a knob or even a rotary switch but I'll get used to it.
The other annoyance was this welder didn't take "mini-spools" which I'd been told were a standard and I'd already bought a 500 gram mini-spool of aluminum wire.
