Or... You could do the opposite, which would be easier. I'm no pro, but I have more control when the feed is low.

If its your first time welding a frame I might suggest that you be liberal with the welds. Although they may not have the beauty of a thin bead a thick weld will have a better chance of getting maximum penetration. Don't be afraid to glob it on.

(but remember to alternate between welds to avoid warpage)
