also a noob, so take anything w/ a grain of salt, but your bead isn't very straight, nor is is uniform in size implying you didn't move at a constant speed

welder here. Like the other guy said, shaky hands. The only way to learn welding is to do allot of it and have a good mentor. Get a fuck ton of steel and keep going.

to be more steady, make sure your elbow is planted on your work surface, and your legs are spaced fairly wide apart. The mistake many beginners make is to not keep a good stance. If your elbows aren't braced against anything, you will shake, and if your legs are too close together, you have less balance
