Do not quench the joint with water or force the cooling, too fast a cooling rate leaves too much ferrite in the weld. Set the gas post-flow long enough for the pool and the electrode to cool under the shield. Grind the tungsten tip along its axis and hold a short arc, otherwise the pool spreads. Thinner diameters suit root runs and thin sheet, thicker ones suit filling.
