You are one of the very few ppl that can accurately answer the question that people are looking for the answer to without having to watch a full video and just have more questions because it didn’t even explain anything to do with what you were asking, but I confused you about a whole bunch more stuff that you didn’t even apply to this scenario or situation😅 .

Thank you for your videos, it really makes a difference showing different results. I bought a Simder Mig 140amp flux core/arc welder. I had an old Harbor Freight 120amp, but did not change to DC, so I thought the Simder would solve my problem - not. I'm 69 and build motorcycles and decided I need to learn to weld. I have built a high performance old 1976 Yamaha RD400 drag bike and I can't keep the front wheel down, so I need to build a wheelie bar. Problem is that whatever I adjust the volt and amp (amp also controls the wire feed wtf!) control knobs, the bead never gets that nice tan color you made and no getting that bright bead. It always looks like I'm burning the metal. I dropped the voltage to 14 and amp/feed to 40 and still burns. I'm practicing a flat bead on a 16 gauge coupon. I set the machine first to 17v and 60amps (roughly 110 wire speed). Maybe I'm getting old and stupid or this machine is a piece of shit - perhaps a little of both. Any thoughts about what I may need to try? Other than to toss it and get someone else to build the wheelie bar. Thank you and sorry about the rambling on.

@NightWrencher

Ай бұрын

Some machines are tricky to get right. Usually amps and wire speed are tied together because its the rate of the wire being pushed into the weld that causes the increase in amp draw, not nessesarily the machine adding amps itself. When I get stuck, I turn the machine all the way down on both voltage and speed and make a big spot weld. The machine should sound smooth as its making the spot weld and if its not, add wire speed and try again and keep going until the machine sounds smooth. Then try to make a bead. If you look close and move slow, you'll be able to add in what youre missing in no time.

Best advice I ever heard is it should sound like bacon cooking. 👍🏼

Absolutely love this video and the results driven examples of changes in heat and wire speed and what the weld can look like at the weld, the heat marks, and also ease of slag removal. This is by far the best explanation and has helped me out tremendously. I'm 2 days into welding and doing some test runs and some real runs. It is evident I need to practice learning my machine and settings and metal thicknesses. I have the Ironton Flux core 125 for some basic home welding. I have 2 settings for voltage (1 is low and 2 is high) and 1-10 for wire speed setting. Where I struggle is what settings to use when I'm joining 16 gauge to 1/8" material as an example.....finding the right balance between just enough volts to not burn through the 16 gauge but hot enough to penetrate the 1/8" stock. For 1/8" material the settings are Voltage 2, wire speed 4. For 16 gauge the settings are Voltage 1, wire speed 4. I'm going to try to find a bunch of scrap metal sizes and really work the settings to get the best welds like you did in your example. Thanks again

That might work, or it might not, but you could try it and see if the welding is bright enough for the camera to see it through the filter. Otherwise, maybe a lighter shade of filter might work. Some experimentation might be required to get the best result with the weld visibility. It would be unique, because I'm not aware of any other KZread channel that does welding that's tried it.

Your not taking in account your "preheating" the metal when your not allowing it to cool between test welds. When the metal is hot from the first weld the setting will act like they are a bit higher from then on.

When you are welding 2 different thicknesses of metal together, do you use settings for the thicker or thinner material?

@NightWrencher

2 жыл бұрын

I always base it on the thinner one because you only need to worry about keeping the thinner metal in place while you weld and using the higher heat settings will make you burn through a lot easier.

First make sure your polarity is correct. Flux core is electrode negative so the ground clamp is +. Next I would make sure your gun tip is about 3/8"(10mm) away from the surface of the material, the closer, the better. Finally move slower and dont move the gun so much

I honestly wouldn't bother changing an older welder over. Technology has moved so fast you can now have a beast of a welder that weights less than a watermelon & costs less than 150 quid. They have synergic technology onboard so all you really need do is tell it what wire gauge you are running & what metal thickness, It does the rest, pretty much. You can twiddle amps & volts if you like, but meh.. Older machines are heavy, suck at running flux core, draw far too many amps & are a general pita. My current favorite machine weights

People tell me that flux core is rubbish and I cant get good welds without gas then I show them " rrrrrr I don't have gas...that is a flux core weld" Gas is not cheap in Australia if you are not welding all the time. Plus I have got so used to using flux core I only look for others if it is critical.
