One thing you'll want to do is get a bottle and use gas instead of flux core wire, the quality of weld is 10 times better with solid wire than with flux core. Bottles can be rented at a welding supply that does oxy/act bottles and they are cheap and so is solid wire compared to flux core, just make sure you set your polarity accordingly.
