My first few attempts at welding...
No prep, just lifted the welder and started welding. I'm told it's not too bad Sheet metal welding will be a bit trickier I know

Run the grinder down through it to see how deep you have burnt into the orig metal, looks like you could go hotter, when your welds are supporting the weight of the car (as a jig) you want penetration for sure.
NB: i am absolutely not any sort of a professional with welding, just been taking an avid interest this last while , picking up as many pointers as i can for my own stuff.
You're 100% correct about thin stuff being a different ball game too, its very frustrating dialling it in for sheet metal
Very exciting progress, looking forward to seeing her progress wouldnt mind a poke about her in real life at some stage if it suits
