mig https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26Mfs_nViC0 anti spatter spray with flux core welding, MIG without gas. Use smaller thin tip,not the larger copper tip, allows seeing the welding. Blue nozzle gel,place on tip before welding, prevents crud on nozzle . use silver streak white pen instead of white stone.

=== warping ===
http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/shop-tools/1949354-avoid-metal-warping-shop-table-top-legs.html Build the frame. Weld, drill and tap some solid bar flush with the top of the legs and bolt the top down with countersunk hardware.
Or another problem folks have is they full weld all the way around the legs to the top when a few 1" long welds will do the trick AND be easier to cut off if something goes wrong 
Angle iron supporting the sheet in the middle helps out a ton. You need to tack it heavy every 2 inches and stagger those tacks and you shouldn't have any problems. Every thickness CAN warp with enough heat though.
I came across this table a few years ago and always thought it would be a decent way ensure a flat top, or at least as flat as you can get with the tools most of us have in the shop. Thread here: New welding table. - OFN Forums . http://www.offroadfabnet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5289 Essentially what he did was weld all-thread to the plate that attached to stringers. Once it was all together, he could adjust those studs and push or pull the plate flat.
