That's the way I (the amateur) do it on long pieces Dave. That way you don't get a lot of heat build-up at one end of your parts, while the other end is still cold. You want to try to spread the heat out across the entire area in small batches.
I watched a new video that was posted this morning that is a good example of what NOT to do. Funny thing is, the young man in the video is a graduate of the Hobart welding school, and has welding certifications up the wazoo! Just goes to show that even the best sometimes gets forgetful.
The good thing is, he's smart enough to know how to fix his mistakes and beat Mr. Shrink at his own game.
