WOW if you learned anything from the posts, other than there are a lot of experts out there with different ideas about welding rod them I'm surprised. 6010 is for AC welders and good for flat welding 6011 is for AC welders and is good for all positions 6013 is for AC welders and can be used on old rusty farm equipment without loosing the strength value of the rod.
7014 and 7018 are for DC welders since you have an AC I would stick the 60 series rods for best welding. You should get a welding rod chart that shows the amperage for each rod. Any welding shop should have one. You have to know three things type of rod. Size of rod and thickness of the metal. Just think bigger more amps. 6011 1/8 rod is the best for all around home welding with an AC welder. Cheap does a reasonably good job and works in all positions. It might help to take a night school course on welding to learn the basics. Its not an easy thing to do to learn how to weld by just playing around as you need to know how to move the rod for different welds. Also next thing get a good 4 1/4 or 6 in. offset grinder you will need it. Harbor freight has some good ones and also an air needle slag remover is always good to have to make better welds. Walt
