   Jim - You'd more avoid positional welding with solid-wire GMAW.  You'd   
   want to turn the work much more than with "stick" (SMAW) where   
   vertical-up welds are very doable.  Different prep. angles?  You'd have   
   to ask someone more streetwise than me...   
      
   ---------------------------------   
   Almost my only use for my little MIG has been patching rust holes in   
   fenders, which I usually want to remain vertical. The exception was plug   
   welds in spotweld cutter holes to attach a replacement radiator support.   
      
   In night school I practiced vertical up with solid wire MIG on their big   
   Miller. I could do it but no one would hire me to.
