Stick welding in the vertical position, also known as uphill welding, can be challenging but with the proper technique and equipment, it can produce strong and high-quality welds. Here are some tips for stick welding in the vertical position:

Choose the right electrode: Use an electrode that is specifically designed for vertical welding. These electrodes have a coating that helps them to burn more slowly, which is important in the vertical position where gravity can cause the molten metal to flow downward.

Clean the joint: Clean the joint thoroughly before starting to weld. Any grease, oil, or other contaminants can affect the quality of the weld.

Use the right amperage: Adjust the amperage on your welder to match the size of the electrode and the thickness of the metal you are welding.

Angle the electrode correctly: Hold the electrode at a 15 to 45-degree angle in the direction of the weld. This will help to control the pool and prevent it from sagging or dripping.

Travel at the right speed: Move the electrode at a steady and consistent speed up the joint. Too slow of a speed can cause the weld to pile up, while too fast of a speed can cause a cold lap and lack of fusion.

Pay attention to the puddle: Watch the molten metal carefully as you weld to make sure that it is not too large or too small. If it is too large, reduce the amperage or increase the travel speed. If it is too small, increase the amperage or decrease
