you are going to need some 6011 electrode for that....and I would also reccomend doing an up weld vs the down....the down will have poor penatration and that bracket needs all the penatration it can get. clean both surfaces of the joint with your grinder & tack in place..then starting at the bottom , start your weld, and when the deposit starts sagging , pull the electrode off to the right, pause, let the puddle freeze, go back in start your puddle again then pull off to the left when it starts sagging again, pause , back in (all without extenguishing the arc)...it sort of helps to count, start the arc , get the puddle 123, sag whip to the right 456, back in the puddle 123, sag , whip to the left 456, back in the puddle..you will find a rythem when all is right. you may also need a little more amperage then you would think, I would suggest at least 125 amps with 1/8 6011, and probbably wouldn't be afraid of more...I hope this helps, it helped me get thru my vertical welding in school....Shawn
