Want to see a Jedi master welder check out ICWELD

On the QDs for the O/A hose I bolted a set to the hose rack so I can connect the hose to something so I don't get water and dirt in the connectors.

I have the same 3M quick release mask and love it! I love that you can easily drop it below your chin like you did without having to take the whole thing off. Thanks for the tips

All my memories of my grandfather (Dad's dad) was with him and his little talk box. LA county iron worker. I wore one of those resperators and they were going to fire me for not being fit tested first. I said "go ahead, pull the cord on my termination papers and we'll have a chat" needless to say that was the end of that conversation

I utilize the Miller Titanium 9400i with the PAPR, also I have a Miller Classic Series set up for the PAPR. Yes the rig is expensive, but it is worth it. Plus it helps cool you. I push the same advice on health. A good respirator is one of the best things to have. I also want to thank you for getting the message out to the crowd.

Thank you so much. Love this channel never quit!!!!

Thank you Brother! Have had and use that 3m respirator for years. Fits great under the hood and really filters out all the garbage!👍

Right on! Thinks for sharing!

Those black stallion brand gloves are the best!!🇺🇲🇺🇲

Keep up the good work anthony,thanks for the tips, love your videos

Yes more of this content please really helps !!!

Thanks for reminding me about a respirator. Mine got burned up, and I hadn't gotten around to replacing it, but with your reminder I went straight to amazon and bought a replacement. Thanks

Looking forward to the Sunday special...

I have been using 4 out of the 5 items you listed for a long time and can agree with everything you said about each one. I just wish I heard about that spreader clamp years ago.. that will definately be a near future purchase to add to the arsenal. My other go to item is a good face shield. I always wear safety glasses and a face shield. Cant weld if you cant see!

Thanks for the tips. Loving the Sunday Specials.

I've been using #3 since 1971. Probably every heavy equipment mechanic I ever knew had one in his tool box.

The scarfing tip is a great tip! We use them in welding school to wash off the backing plates on out test cupons. 👍great channel I'm looking into getting into the mobile game soon and have learned alot from your videos.

I love the scarfing tip for removing fused bolts and nuts...

I’m not a welder but I love your watching your videos man

"your lungs are very important" I learn something new everyday from you, I've been using the damn things to breath so from now on I'll put them in a box in a safe place

All these videos on here talking about tools you need for welding or whatever, and they are always the same common tools you already have. This is the first tool video I've seen where all but 1 (the respirator) I didn't know existed and are extremely useful and cool AF! Oh the quick connect torches I've seen but forgot about until this video! Awesome tools!! Thanks for the video!

Took your advice and ordered the respirator. I’ve been looking for one that fits under the hood. I was eyeing it in some of your other videos. Thanks!

Fantastic video again as all ways. Great tips i love that clamp I will be getting 1. I’m just starting my own welding business and all your videos are a great help and inspiration massive thanks 👍👍👍👍

5:13 finally dropped the 60$ to get a good respirator for under my helmet while stick welding. Reading these comments from old timers and hearing the stories finally bit the bullet. Only 15 right now so 60$ is a pretty penny

Thanks Anthony for the great video

thank you brother

Great information. Keep spreading the welding gospel, brother!

The respirators are a must! Every shop I've gone too i get on everyone's ass about protecting themselves. Took me a few years to find it myself but once I did I've never gone back! Worth every penny!

Hey Anthony, Great Job Brother!

A scarfing tip is not for piercing plate. It is for cutting spigots and risers. It is a flush cutting tip that can cut off projection features clean to a surface. It is not for severing, it is for trimming. ---Doozer

A video I can stand behind!

been wanting those bottle caps for while might have to order some now lol

Thanks mate

Great info thank you!!

Tip #4 , the light weight and rugged 3M 6503QL Respirator has been a major improvement in my welding enjoyment and lung safety. I used to use N95's but usually ripped them off part way through the weld because my glasses fogged up and I just ended up breathing in all that flux core or rod smoke. Since I bought the very affordable and effective 6503QL (using 'my boy's' link) , I use it all the time. I really like that you can breathe normally - and the drop-down function means I don't even have to take it off for non-welding work and then no adjustment when it's time to mask up again.

Thanks for the tips

Another awsome tool, the heavy 600lb dewalt wood working clamps. Come in various sizes, anytime you need an extra hand pushing, pulling, holding spreading, they are handier then a shirt pocket and at like $28 to replace if they get melted whatever just buy another.

Pretty sure I have 6 dewalt clamps on my truck at all times that together cost me less then $200 and iv had most for like 4 years. Just don't go laying full hot beads 2" from them and they last perfectly fine.

thanks man, learning a lot from you, but can t use the product links here in germany. anyway thanks!! elmar

Wow I work on some big high rises and Ive never seen some of this stuff

For your spreader gadget check out push pull dogs. Easy to make.

I suggest a hydraulique hand pump, or steel wedges

A magnetic ground is another one that's really useful.

good investment. especially at that age

Anthony, when you are making a surface cut with a torch and you don't want to cut into the face of the other metal: preheat like you said, rotate the head like you said, but when you start the cut, slowly move the torch head back in the opposite direction of the cut while pressing the oxygen. Release and repeat while you gradually work forward in steps. You will notice when the "swipe" is complete when the "line" of your cut appears and you see the surface of the metal you are saving. By backing off each time, you give the metal you are removing a place to go, up and out. Once you get it you will see what i mean. Love the channel. -JIW, lo. 512

Solid technique,

That weld by the toolbox is "wicked". Was it done on take your 3 year old to work day?

You need to get an airfed mask bro i have an esab papr and g50 mask never looked back not as spacious as a speedglas but alot cheaper

I used to HATE your little intro beep bop theme song. I have grown to love it and do a little dance when it comes on.

Should have mentioned a Magnetic burning guide, mine is a CurveOmark.

u are right

Excellent info. And thankyou. Can I ask. Should I wear mask. Tig mig and anything else?

I agree with you on the whole mask wearing for welding, not for covid. Anyhow, you should try out the Miller masks, they are legit & way lower profile than that 3M but if you like the Miller and wanna save a little coin get the Eclipse brand mask they are the ones who make the Miller masks.

Sure thing I’ll add it to the list!

I had every victor tip they made and we call that a wash tip

I dont mean to sound like a nob but you know on the respirator side you can also get air fed masks? Especially in florida it might feel nicer to use, i never really see them in American videos but in the UK theyre as popular as normal masks. Incase you havent seen them they have a filter pouch you attach to your hip on a belt and it feeds aid through a tube up into your mask, which is sealed around your neck and face... your welding mask can normally flip up but stays secure as a clear mask instead. If you can source them they are much better than a 3m mask and welding hood ontop

That respirator is the most important to any welder can have but only about 10% of them wear one

Where's the list, hey I have a suggestion, a clamp that allows you to clamp angle iron on ends, a 90 degree v

5:42 are those dust cartridges or charcoal cartridges??. They look like dust cartridges which do nothing for harmful vapors or smoke. Charcoal cartridges are for vapors and smoke.

You seem like a smart guy -them connects will leak 80 percent of the time Def need blowback protection. Push cut is always better than a pull or rip cut depends on aesthetic value or weld joint geometry ibeen doing this shit for 40 years and there is still smthn to do better every time I'm a pro had to learn then xcell taught many a young fella one thing I can tell ya - do it to the best of your ability no one can take that from you TORCHMAN HA just ol farmboy
