I loved point # 4, You can practice all you want but if you don't know how to fix your problem you won't get any better. Good instruction is even MORE IMPORTANT than practice. I work with a kid who is eager to learn and listens, in about a years time his aluminum welds could all be posted on some social media and blow people away! He has "practiced" very little, but worked on a decent amount of stuff, and we don't just weld. When ever I see one of your videos that deals with something we are working I on sit him down to watch your video's, They are Awesome!

I've been welding 55 yrs & I am still learning from your videos. Thanks !

You’re always calling out my mistakes😂 Awesome video Dusty, keep it up!!

Dusty says Chill-N-Fill folks. Don’t let that slide 🛝

Thank you. 62 and learning every day.

Thanks champ it's great that your sharing your great amount of knowledge with us all one can never have enough of it always different perspectives.

Mate these videos are such a great learning aid. I'm glad i did my research before i fired up my machine. Thanks heaps from Australia

#4 is really helpful.

Another awesome video, I'm doing a piece of stainless steel art piece for my daughter. It involves some silicon bronze. Your video will definitely help me. Thank you, Dusty.

While learning to weld food-grade I took to keeping my rod always in the puddle. Even when I have to reset position I let the puddle cool with the rod still in the puddle, very smooth starts and stops. I have become a poor dabber.

Great tips. Doing ok practicing on flat plate that's decently thick. But then I try thin stainless exhaust tubing. Having issues with small puddle and not enough room to insert filler in right place in puddle. Or if I let puddle get large, blowing a hole in the tubing from too much heat. A video on common problems with stainless tubing and how to fix it would be great. Best tungsten grind angle for tubing - penetration vs area. Fixing holes with patches, filler, or starting over. Options for pulsing, androgenous, etc.

I learned heat control by taking that tube, strike an arc and walk a puddle all around the tube, NO rod, just the tiny puddle, you are teaching your body where that sweet spot for heat is. At this sweet spot you can actually control the temp of your puddle based on how much rod you cram into it, it will never hurt to back off heat a little.

Thanks. I definitely need all the practice I can get. What happened was my purge line came off and I ended up with a huge hole. I watched the TFS video where he fixes a exhaust with cracks and holes with bridging. Still ended up with a sugar mess. I ended up cutting out the bad metal and fitting in a new piece. Lots of work and looks like crap. Now I'm concerned that I cooked out all the chromium and it'll end up rusting. Just ran across a Everlast video using an aluminum backing plate. So now I know about backing plates and welding tape. ...Yeah, I'm new to welding, backing plate never crossed my mind but makes perfect sense. Hence my interest in how to fix or correct things that have gone horribly wrong.

You rock Bro.

Can you do a video on how to properly clean the tungsten after dipping it in the material?

Thanks!!!!

I only welded for two years. None of it was TIG, lots of flux core wire feed or MIG. Even in the welding school I attended there was only two TIG machines and one was broken the whole school year. We all spent waaay too much time on gas welding because that is what the school had the most of.

Dusty send me some contact info of this people who have nice TIG machines collecting dust in their garage so I can buy a better machine!! 😂. You seem to really know your audience and man if people just listen to you it’s a recipe for true success!! I do get frustrated too and mostly because I feel stainless flows like water. That puddle flows like a lake rather than a sweet ⭕️ pond shape. And when I fill and chill it’s going to be grey grey Grey. So I need to keep practicing but I know there is success inside stainless somewhere for me. If you can tell us how to keep that irregular puddle flow back into a nice DIME shape that would be a blessing. Titanium flows like butter 🧈. It’s so smooth and easy to push out into the surrounding metal but stainless really acts like a rushing river going its own direction for me. 😂

Everyone always discusses stainless and aluminum. What would be different about simple carbon steels?

Do you have any tips for F4 welds?

Good morning

I have baseline tremors I can only tig aluminum. My stainless looks like actual poopy

Any tips for filling up holes? Im either burning them bigger and bigger, or making it look like bird crap because im just jamming the filller in there.

Heat is AMPs over time so keep each time you turn the torch on as short as it takes to add one or two drops of filler. Also keeping a wet rag next to the hole your filling to wipe the area to cool it can help speed things along.

Is he using a CK230 torch?

My bro I have idea how you attain such clean welds. .. I'm always feeling that my gear is faulty somehow an d it drives me nuts. It's like no matter what I do : amping up and going faster, amping down and going slower, adding more filler, less, autogenous, they always end grey, dark blue...

That is a sign your welds are not being protected by Argon, try turning the supply higher. Most of all: practice, practice and more practice.

How does the hex-chrome risk of TIG welding stainless compare to the risk of plasma cutting stainless?

If it aint round put it down

You've been welding for 20 years? You look 20 years old

This is all basic day one stuff you learn even from the crappy "how to weld" books that come with the welder. Just more click bait trash.

That's pretty harsh. Several dozen, at least, of his videos go into considerably more detail than the pretty decent book that came with the welder I used. Those videos seemed self contained with clicking not required to complete the free instruction.
