Arch 5281 I made the mistake of forgetting that my clear face shield was on... took a few minutes before I could get back to work 🤣🤣
Don’t ever change, Mike.
The best thing I got out of this video was the trick of removing flux from the center of the rod to make it less "flippy". Dang, I've been cutting the rods in half, then removing flux from the cut end (factory end is OK on the other piece). Now all I have to do when using more than one "short" stick is to just flip the rod over in the stinger. Thanks for the tip, Mancub!
Learned a lot thank you! That small pipe can be tricky with the temperature so it’s always good to keep letting the pipe cool down
I'm need to try this. For some reason I didnt understand a few things and missed the point. But this video clarified it. Thank you.
Good job. We had to do that test and three others except we done it in 6G and we had to make a three stringer cover. We did that and a tig root a 6G.a unlimited in 6G with a tig root on a 6 inch pipe, and a 10 in with a stick root flip test. We had a three year clock. Plus all the other certs we needed stainless ,mig. On pipe . Loved that job retired now. Every welder does things a little different but that's close to what I did. I liked a smaller keyhole then you, i seem to have more control, and it slowed things down for me. Great video I enjoyed it. You are fun to watch.
I love learning something new every day!
I needed this I always have hard time making the root part during in class.
While there is a lot to be learned from these well-prepped fit ups using "modern" welders, I'd like to see tips and tricks for welding the likes of 2" barn/pasture fencing with an old-school Miller 225 Bobcat (or something similar). Typically, the pipe is nasty and often magnetized. The saddles are rough cut with a torch. So essentially, just about the opposite of a nice shop or commercial job. Love your SMAW videos. Stay safe!

2 very different types of welding. He has that type of prep b/c he is putting in a "to code" high pressure pipe joint, usually to x-ray quality. Throwin up a pasture fence with old drill casing pipe or whatever doesnt matter. Its just gotta stick together.
Excellent video. Careful and good preparation, good welding position, that's exactly what needs to be done. Perfect.
I like how you show how human he is. I’ve left my hood on grind mode too. Thx!
Thanks for the video. Good stuff
Great presentation as everyone agrees. I think the photography deserves a compliment - especially I like the split screen arc views.
Great video thanks cub
Went to my doctor and he wrote me the prescription for weld.com. Thanks Mike...
I was getting ready to say mancub can finally talk, but in the middle of typing you guys played the bloopers! 😂 he can weld though, and is entertaining, thanks mancub!
Excellent presentation fast talking love it always on point skillful and great knowledgeable thanks mike outstanding
Nice work ManCub!!! 💪🏼💥
I am a self taught welder, no I don't have certifications and all that. I do like learning better welding techniques. I appreciate all the info, I'm really interested in learning to tig weld. I guess after watching a few videos, it's best just to buy a setup, and practice. Any tips on someone like me becoming certified?

Well idk if you listened to Bob but he seems like a person that learned traditionally . Im not sure he fit with the idea of KZread and being able to have numerous videos on different types of welds/weaves. You know sometimes as humans we like to over complicate things to sell and market more complex ideas/machinery. In the words of bob " Keep it simple."

@@bbrill9886 I would agree Bob's style was quite formal, direct and no nonesense. Exactly the right style for pupils/studdents to respect and listen too because teaching a skill requires a formal approach in my opinion. I am not saying Mancub or anyone else isn't good enough, but the over easy style Mancub has is a bit too casual (possibly the wrong word?) for me. We all respond differently I suppose to tutors and tutorials.
Thanks

Are parameters for making your root or bead to wide on pipe?
for this vid I give 2 thumbs up !
So there needs to be a space between the pipes equal to the diameter of the rod you’re using? Or is it always 3/32 spacing between the pipes no matter what the size Rod your using? Thanks
@Choldjonesy
6 ай бұрын
it doesnt depend on the rod you're using. i run 1/8th rod for a 1/16th gap pipe. it just depends what youre comfortable with. Tig welding has an even bigger gap normally.
So, at the 10 minute mark on the root pass, on the side facing the camera is that a crack along the top of the bevel down into the weld? Or is that a sharp ridge from grinding the weld? It looks like a crack from my view.
@Choldjonesy
6 ай бұрын
it most def is a crack but im really not sure how he got it considering thats ground metal and he would have at least blended that by grinding
4:44 wish I could’ve seen where you tapped. I’m assuming on the top of the pipe. But either way, I like seeing multiple people showing how to weld, even though Bob is MIA.

Keep you chanfer sharp, undercut may pass an xray with a good cap, if you leave an edge in your root xray no bueno
Love ur shop . I've been in lots of real shit holes. Ol' metal fab garages .
I tried this today on 2" pipe in my backyard, my problem is my fit up. All I have is a grinder and a pipe vise not to mention my darling wife asking when am Im coming in. Also I only had 1/8" 6011 and 1/8" 7018. I thought I could manipulate the puddle around the bad fit up but my keyhole blew out on me. What made it worse was getting a spark directly in my right ear.
Glad to see a sch 40 6010 everyone on KZread does sch 80
that pipe is so pretty lol . my steam pipe that is 50 years in the ground never is that clean. trying to fix a leak is a fun time. how about a video on crappy pipe in a 4' by 4' tunnel with no room to work. if you need a location i can help.

Taking the flux off the middle and choking up on the rod is a super badass trick. Keep it coming bruh🤙🏼
Was wondering, if higher PSI is needed, could you use 7014 (I think?) for the root, cut into it with a grinder and finish with 7018?
@kf8575
2 жыл бұрын
For higher pressure, over here in the UK we use 7016 for the root pass DCEN. Then sometimes 7016 sometimes 7018 (depending on procedure) for the fill and cap. Fleet 6010s are only ever really used here for class 2 or low spec pipe.

Man the camera view of the rod and its manipulation is really lacking on this video. Did you just drag the bead or did you whip it in, did you manipulate the rod or puddle with your 7018/cap. It's hard to tell, decent looking weld tho man.

Combination of both, He dragged and whipped the root. When it opened to much he whipped. The cap he just dragged with no rod manipulation. He had about a 15 deg angle of drag on the cap.

Actually looked like you are pushing rather than pulling. Glad you clarified that as the angle is a little deceiving on camera.

A while back viewers were asked what welding issues they were having. Note: I am not a professional welder just retired hobbyist. If you are open for one of my many issues here it is: using either TIG or MIG when I try to weld a much thinner metal to a thicker one I usually end up cremating the thinner one. I have seen videos where the heat is to be more directed to the thicker one, but it seems when I try to blend in the thinner part I burn through. If heat is lowered it does not seem to be enough for the thicker piece. Maybe it is just a lot more practice, but any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
@jcnpresser
4 жыл бұрын
I’ve had luck doing what you said by keeping the heat on the thicker piece. If the two pieces are drastically different then it may be damn near impossible. I just keep an eye on the puddle and dip it into the thin piece quickly then back to thick. They always say practice practice practice!
They should make welding helmet with a camera built in for filming

Yeah I figured you were. I am too, I work for a new car dealership and my 77 year old father lives with my wife and I. She works at the dealership also. She’s been laid off with pay from the dealership, and so have I. She gets bronchitis, pneumonia every year. She got pneumonia when it hit our area, doctors wouldn’t treat her, scared she had the virus, got sent to emergency room, they wouldn’t treat her, said they were only treating people dying or on their deathbed. It really woke me up, I was thinking this is a big joke until they take your wife back in hazmat suits pretty much. The manager keeps bugging me to come back to work, no health insurance, no thank you, the owner made a deal with and I’ll probably ride it out till it calms down. My dad has leukemia so he’d probably die from it if he was to catch it. He ain’t worth a little more money. Sorry for the tangent, but some people just see what’s up til it affects them like it did me when my wife went to the hospital. Also they said she could have it, take these meds and it you don’t get better then go to a bigger city and get hospitalized there where they have sufficient test equipment. Took her 3 weeks to get back to a 100%. Thanks for giving us something to watch mancub. He might even get better than you redbeard by the time you get back lol, probably not! Thanks again!
