I just started welding school after 30 years in culinary and it is awesome! I'm stoked by your videos!

I think this video was great. Austin focused on the weld, and the WeldingFlyDuck talked through it. I’d love to see a series of these.

You guys made a great choice and choosing the student to do the video. Great job Austin, this young man will do well in this field, best of luck to him.

Good job Austin, your going to do well in this field!

You are going to make a great hand out in the field Austin!! Keep at it youngster!!

Good video. I just starterd my first training. Been 3 days now. Your video helps a lot. Thank you @weldtube!

Another great video guys. Keep up the good work.

Great instructor!

Great vid! Keep them coming

In my own experience in welding technic, circling the rod is the best if your hands not shakey but if your hands too shakey, the best stroke is whipping.

Thanks Austin

Good job Austin!

Thank you so much ❤ I learn so much hear

The A B C's of welding. Always Be Comfortable. SMAW is by far my favorite process. And I have never been formally taught how to run a tig torch....I struggle to get Comfortable with that....I'm 42 now...time flys!! Would have been the cats ass to go to school for welding!! I hope these young guys make the best of it!!!

Love these videos keep it up guys 🔥🔥🔥

Thanks for clarifying the hot pass inverted T was 6010 and you could be asked to use 7018 weave. That was a good video, good explanation while you as a instructor watch and teach.

Good practice Austin.

Great video, love the details...

I'm Brazilian and I liked your videos

Exelente amigos, saludos desde Santiago de chile

Awesome video.

Yes thanks very good

Good job Brah! 🤙🏽 wish I could go to SOUTH COAST ACADEMY. , for now it’s on the job training.

Amazing skills

Good job my friend ❤

The Hot pass technique used here is nothing more than glorified tack welding 🤫 Don't watch the puddle cool down but instead make sure the puddle is chasing the electrode which means your amperage & speed of travel are correct. If the puddle is solidifying before you whip back into it then you aren't actually controlling the puddle are you 😊 The "Hot" pass is a process that helps smooth or resurface the root pass and make it usable without grinding the weld. The extra heat also helps remove any remaining trapped slag from the root pass. You're looking for a smooth weld bead with tight ripples and not a stack of dimes or in this case quarters 😁 Small circles on the E7018 stringer will flatten the bead out so it won't look so lumpy/crowned. Also, triangles for E6010/6011 hot pass will allow you to carry a larger puddle while still keeping a flat/smooth bead profile 😉 On a side note, a short arc-length will cause a crowned/lumpy weld bead profile too. This will cause the arc-force to be weak which won't spread the weld puddle out correctly making it more difficult to control. A good way to verify if your arc-length is correct is to try running some E6013 for your cover pass. This particular electrode is similar to E308/309 stainless and requires the welder to manually manipulate the arc-force to control the puddle. If you have any flaws into your technique then E6013 will definitely expose them when it comes to welding out of position 😁 By the way, you can use E6013 open root if you want to challenge yourself. I've used it open root before on a PTO-Drive shaft on farm equipment and it works just fine and is more ductile to boot! Just know that the world doesn't revolve around pipe welding so don't be afraid to try other techniques.

thats a really sick weld or starve sticker you got there!

Good shit I plan on becoming a welder in the next two years I need all the info I can get and you guys are amazing at explaining technics thank you

No need anything just go and sign up I have 3 weeks u see my belt at school and from watching videos my words are at 3g did 2 passes and they said move to the next and so on videos and techniques from others on here help me so much to make different welding

Great video sharing

excellent

Great job young man and way to go teach. As this is what we were taught in 10 grade welding 1" 4g 3g unlimited. As a union ironworker in local 25 Detroit. But from northern michigan " Cheboygan mi. " As boiler makers and fitters alot if times get to use "wire wheels and grinders" during testing. Not in high school or my union i.w. test for a.w.s. I fell all testing should be done with out the use of power tools. As in the feild say your power source is down. And back in the day all a ironworker had was a torch and welder. And then a air arc. And i think all trades should have to do there weld test with a open no backing strip root pass with Bend test. Just my opinion as i watch 90 percent of these videos on line people use power tools to clean and fix there welds. But hay guys great work showing and explaining the process and little tid bits.Tight lines ya all. From the white fish.

This helped me out a tunnn

Wish I could go there and get trained!!!

Nice job sir

Sick!!

That weld looks good 😊😊😁🤗

Good job

This is an incomplete test,where's the bending and assessment..full test please.

Thanks frineds

I go to Lively and we learned it a bit differently. We still used 6010 for the root and 7018 for the fill and cap, but we did a single vertical weave fill and a vertical weave cap that just covered the bevels. We used 3-stringer caps on 2G and 4G. We have 1/8in gaps and 1/8in landings on the bevels. They have us do vertical weave beads whenever we weld vertically even on pipes. We used weaves on 1G and 5G, but used stringers on 2G and 6G. They even have us do this for AWS cert testing.

Get used to a 3/32 gap and land. Reason being fits on pipe are rarely perfect. Tighter is easy to deal with wide not so much. On a tight gap with 3/32 land you can cut it open with a wafer wheel and will weld perfect. If lands get to thick after cutting open, thin the lands with a grinder. Also keep 3/32 in your bucket for tight gaps. Please don’t be someone who needs grinder lines to weld straight. That is rookie shit along with needing arm and hand rest. All of those are not needed.

In welding school we learned to weave for 1 day, then the instructor that was a 66 year old CWI that spent the first 20 years of his life welding pipe told us to "never weave again unless they let you or made you" after that everything with him was the hard way first. Open root plate was done with a 3/32 gap and the whip method first, then he showed us the 1/8th gap and just jamming the rod in, he then lifted his hood up, and looked at us and talked to us while he finished the root. He said "That looked way easier didn't it?" we said yes why didn't we just do that to begin with he said "If I showed you guys how to work with a ideal scenario I wouldn't be doing my job." we learned Tig and stick and spent 1 day on fluxcore, the one day on fluxcore was all test plates, that we all passed with zero problem. Then we had a local contracting company come talk to us and tell us that the next to last week of school they had a shutdown going on and if we wanted to come work it we all had the opportunity, we were given a whole day if we wanted to come test out at their place. "They were not paying us to test like normal, but still a great opportunity" Well I decided to end school a little early and go test. It was a 6g pipe test Tig root and hot with a stick fill and cap on schedule 40 pipe "We welded 80 in school" This contractor did a majority steel mill work, and some paper mills so you can guess the quality they were accustomed to. I got my root in with zero problem hot pass went good, fill pass went good, then I got to the cap, I had two beads on it and after that then joint was filled but I had undercut all the way beside the pipe side of my last bead, I was straight scared and thought I failed, the guy giving the test walked over and said "What's up" probably because my 18 year old self was just staring at my test piece with a blank look I said "I failed didn't I?" He said "are you not just going to run a third bead right there?" I said Wow I can do that? He said "Dude this isn't a test for a nuclear power plant, do what you need to, I'm not going to specify exact demission's or the number of beads for each pass run another bead and it will be fine". I went to a strict welding school, so strict I thought that the guidelines I was given in school were set in stone. Then after getting said job I watched one of the best welders I've still to this day ever meet get a terrible fit on a low pressure 30 inch water drain pipe, break the flux off a good 20 7018's shove them in the gap and weave over them to make a root pass. In welding school the teach you to weld like you are going to weld a joint for a nuke plant. In the real world I've learned that a lot of places want you to pass a test, then go out there and make every day bad situations work. That was the moment in my carrier only a couple of months in I saw that a real welder is the guy that can weld with inspectors watching every joint in a nuke plant, but it's also the guy that can shove 20 fluxless 7018's into a huge badly fit low pressure water pipe in a steel mill, then fill it and put the best looking cap on it, then have the "pipe superintendent" walk by and say "Wow great job that will never leak"

yeah, wish i could get a good position out on the field at work. next time i need to tell client to change the position up or down or so before i can weld. because i need it comfortable

I am a Bangladeshi I am always yours Watch the videos and I am learning new welding watching your videos helps me a lot so asakari step step brother step1step 1g to 6g please give all the videos asakari thank you

Sweet vid just wish you did a bend test on it

this is the first thing that popped up on here and i got my first bend today sooo

Nice one

Very nice

বাংলাদেশ থেকে দেখছি, ভালো লাগলো।

Gotta show a video of the bend test

Good video. You did good for a student. I was taught a little different but there is more than one way to skin a cat. I keep my weaves tighter and don’t count. I would tighten up that 5p hot pass, if done properly it should look like stacked dimes. I was taught to watch my puddle behind the rod. Reason being on pipe if you count on a 5G field weld, you may have problems with dead mans corner. Build up to much metal as it heats up and puddle drips off pipe. I was also taught to leave 1/16 of bevel for my line to follow for first bead. Then follow toes to run straight stringers.

This is the same way I’ve been taught as well. Never thought necessary to grind a guideline. Seems like a lot of extra work, and potential for a mistake.

The way the light reflected on your nose at first made me think you were wearing a fake nose till you turned you head a bit there but thats just cause im high. 😂

“I’m going to go up, down, side to side!” Dude, just do ⭕️ circles or triangles, 10x faster and your beads will turn out better.

At my shop, we seldom ever do stick welding. Unless we go out into the field for installations. Otherwise, it's nothing but Mig and Flux Core.

At my job we usually do stick welding since we're always in the field, and it's kind of a pain hauling our 65lb mig welders around. We bring them out for bigger projects once we have decent paths and scaffolding though.

Do a vid for 3g open root tig

Do a bend test. Let's see if he would qualify. I qualified my 4G, and I had a single 8th inch tear on my 3G bend test which then the CWI failed me for that. It needs to be perfect and clean all the way through. My 4G had no tares, no stretch marks and no indications. It was perfectly clean on my face and root. So when you guys do tests like this could you bend that coupon and show us if what we see is really going to be good enough. I'm practicing for my 3G test with some very stringent specs.

This student would fail because the second root pass has too much slag. Same with some of the weave techniques. But it'll hold farm equipment together.

Just got my first stick welder and IV only tried stick welding once about 10 years ago. Probably a dumb question, so please don't hate to much. But does the other clamp always have to be clipped to what you are welding? Or if your welding on a metal table with the piece your going to weld. Can you clamp the other clamp to the table and that creates the circuit? Hope that makes sense. Thanks

Your ground clamp, can be clamped on the table if the piece of metal you are welding on is touching the table (or tacked preferably). You can also clamp direct to the piece you are welding on, just make sure it’s not in your way. Hope that helps.
