A major issue you will have with this welding type is distortion. It's an issue with TIG as well but TIG due to the shielding gas that helps with heat control is the best at controlling it. The distortion means that at mock up stage where everything fits on a tack welded together piece by the...
Ok cool I've not had exposer to it before only stick, mig and tig. I went looking for info and this video seems good esp from 4:55 with regards to machine electrical inputs and outputs V spatter.

So SFA has had a population growth of 565,000 in the last 50 years from 2.775M to 3.34M and Munich a city I like and have visited a few times has grown by 309,000 from 1.275 to 1.584 in the same period. Manageable modest growth over 50 years. Here we have gone from 2.477M to 5.316M over the same...
