3g Open root

Instructor said cap was beautiful, root was a little too reinforced. Got 90/100. Whats marked in red on the root was done myself. Feel it better to point out my own imperfections. Dont need qc to tell me its got an issue for me to know.

First Bend Test!!

Howdy everyone. Im 16. Graduating highschool early. I want to be a welder. My local college has concurrent welding classes at our very nice technical center. Ive got a passion for the trade and today was my first Bend Test. 3/8 plate 2G. 6010 root 7018 hot, fill, and cap. Face Bend had a little porosity bust open but shes less than 90 thousandths so well within 1/8 tolerance. First attempt on 2G so im pretty damn happy. Pics of the bends and finished plate.
