 Don't let the bastards win. This is a good newsgroup with lots of
knowledgeable people.

Ignore trolls, and do not respond to them. That is the most effective way
of keeping the NG clean.

I'm not seeing a lot of trolls at the moment.

However, I'm not used to welding vertically. Using the regular setting
for ESAB 7100 Ultra, I was getting my puddle dropping to the floor
occasionally. I went ahead cut the wire feed by about 1/3rd, and that
seemed to help some, but it would still drop. Should I increase/decrease
the feed or the voltage? I'm doing a triangle weave and welding upwards.

710 ultra is my favorite dual shield wire.
You left out he wire size.
For 1/16" wire the magic numbers are 23 volts, 200 amps.

.045" wire. Sorry.

OK more like 21 volts, and 165 amps for 0.045" wire.

Still my favorite.

I like the 0.035" version for assembling architectural pieces like
stair cases.
It makes really clean welds on 3/16" to 1/4" steel.
