My wire welder came with an adjustable flow regulator with no gauge. I put the tip next to my ear and pull the trigger to hear gas rushing, then regulate to a medium hiss. On my welder, I could never use fine wire, but I did rather well with .033 or .035. Like the guy above said, weld things that don't need welding to stay in practice.
