It’s a privilege to have two professional teachers in one video 🙏👏👏👏

When I first saw walking the cup it looked easy enough but when I started practicing with my everlast I realized getting even ripples in the weld took a lot of practice.

My boyfriend and his buddy are welders and I feel like their speaking in some sort of Alien language when speaking of all the terms and Techniques, this channel really helped me understand and it's actually interesting. Thanks

Eurika! At last a YT instructional welding video, that contains a genuinely skilled/experirienced and knowledge welder and not a 'Charlatan Chancer' or an enthusiastic. I've been in the welding industry since 1985 and I know a fellow craftsman when I see or hear one talk of his craft. Bravo, bravo. Any newbies to welding need to watch and listen to this guy cos ' He knows his onions'👍

I miss Bob so much on this channel, man's a natural teacher :(

ive been a plastics fabricator for about 20 years, learnt to braze, oxy, arc and mig weld in high school, but that was 25 years ago. so while i can weld plastic 5 ways, id probably blow myself up lighting up an oxy rig now. just wanted to say how cool it is to see how the other half live. these videos are quality... just like the welds. cheers

Im a beginner welder and been at it for 5/6 months in a Tech School in PR. Had to stop due to hurricane Maria for about 4 months into it. Theory has been crap but actual welding i can say they(proffesors) have done an awsome great job but theory based just lost so much time in the learning process that we just lost it. But thanx to this and other multiple channels ive been getting up o date. So thank u so much!

this is very informative. best i've seen. i did some tig 2 welding courses but the dutch NIL never learned me this. The teacher never wanted to tell the fine secrets of welding. i stopped welding because the lack of welding information they gave me. i really miss the smell of hot argon. thank you,

Excellent video. Very much enjoyed Bob's take on walking the cup. Now here's a welder that not only can talk the talk but has defiantly walked the walk or in this case walked the cup. Please invite him back as often as possible. Ed K. Cleve. Oh.

Amazing looking weld's....thank you for sharing !

Learned so much. I will try tomorrow! Excited!!!

and yet again I learn more from youtube than the years spent in school .

absolutely beautiful welds there!!

Great looking welds, great technique, would love to see two or even three filler rods though!

YES! Thank you so much, for all of the awesome instructional content. I've been wishing to begin learning to weld for nearly thirty years. To this day, I've never laid my hands onto any type of welding outfit, but I've been searching out high quality content like yours, for the past two or three years, trying to become acquainted with the tools, components, and nomenclature of the welding trade. Of course it's probably not possible to learn everything I would need to learn to begin welding, but it's an invaluable primer to prepare one for the day when one finally has a chance to begin a welding course, or even just going out and buying a welder and going to it in their home workshop. I get really excited while watching these type of videos, but especially when it's produced by such talented welders and instructors. Your videos are top quality professional presentations, and I really love watching them. I just discovered your channel and subscribed to it about two weeks ago, and already I've learned a great deal from you guys. I have to agree with that last post, that those are some darn pretty welds you laid down with that cup walking technique. I can hardly wait to get back home to my shop in the States so that I can begin putting my hands on a welding outfit and getting busy. My shop already has a wiring circuit for a welder, I think it must be a 240V circuit, because it's clearly not in a location where you could put a clothes washer or dryer, which would be 220V, unless I'm mistaken? Thanks again for the effort and commitment that you guys have put into developing this fantastic channel and educational content. Have a great new year!

Son muy buenos videos Los felicito!!

i welded steam piping for 30 years. that was cool you know your shit. i know the codes dont like running more then one rod . i ve ran as many as six. while walking the cup, on the cover pass. i like to think of it as rolling the barrel light touch is very important. never thought about pulling down slightly makes sence. great video.

🔥Always learning valuable information🔥

Mr.tig, I am curious to see if you can walk the cup around a 1/2" sch 40 buttweld.

Good seam.

Its just years of experience, good job.

This is my fifth time watching this and I always wonder one thing. What lens do you guys use for the arc shots? The clarity of the arc and the surrounding area is amazing.

This is good info.. although it's worth being aware that it's not always acceptable, walking the cup can make scratches on the surface of the workpiece and for some employers/ customers can be rejected, in particular brushed or polished stainless surfaces. This technique definitely has its place and looks fantastic when it's done well like this.

We are starting Tig this Monday, I'm excited to learn another process and gain another feather in my hat. To all the welders out there be safe and lay sexy beads 🤘

Would absolutely love to learn how to weld. It would make me eligible for more work at my current job. I'm glad to see the amount of content on this channel for free. Definitely going to see if I can start a certification program at my local college once I'm not working as much.

God dang TIG is so clean! I do some flux core MIG welding and compared to this it is so messy (even though the welds look halfway decent after you clean out all the slag and brush it). What are the structural differences if any? I may have to start TIG'in! I do mostly projects for my Jeep such as roof rack and bumper hoop type stuff.

Michael Kirst if you're doing welding for vehicles, definitely do tig. You'll get a gorgeous weld(if you're good) and also it's very clean. Make sure your skin is covered though, tig is much brighter and produce more UV rays due to no smoke production. It CAN get very technical tho.

an interesting technique thank you for explaining , also the pattern the weld leaves reminds me vaguely of the belly of a cobra , kinda like their scale pattern

If I am doing an x-ray quality weld on pipe and don't have a foot pedal, I like to run my arc to the side and pull out up my filler rod if possible and then break the arc. Does not leave those ugly craters from the arc break, which in turns make less grinding for me. Just my 2 cents

Better yet, brake your arc on your filler wire. When your cappin, you don’t have a bevel anymore.

that was awesome to see that number 10 cup I'm guessing, just glide through the groove of that heavy wall

It is a wonderful welding Please also look at welding in Japan

I now have two Lincoln Electric Mig welders and two Tig. The Migs are HD 100 and the Mig 180. Esab seems like they give you more features like the auto for when the sitck out gets impossible for the Lincolns ? I only have limited control over that.

+Weld.com - Walk the Cup is somewhat more difficult to explain verbally, but here goes. When Welding you want to manipulate the Torch properly to produce a correct Weld. With Pipe Welding you "Walk the Cup" to move the Torch sideways and forward. The "walking" is sort of like walking on ice, you want to *slide* an extremely small amount forward *OR* backward *while* moving the Torch *forward* (the tiny sliding is IF you either walk too far or not far enough). You "walk" by rocking the Ceramic Cup sideways, the ceramic _grabs_ the steel similar to planting your foot on ice (so you don't slip) *and* you lift the other 'foot' (other side of the Cup, not _planted_ on the Pipe) eliminating friction (or physical contact) by rocking the Cup (one _foot_ on the ice, the other lifted up) and 'planting your foot' slightly further ahead - *with* 'micro-sliding' forwards *or* backwards to correct the forward Travel Speed. The sideways motion of the _walking_ is to accommodate the width of the Weld *IF* you choose to Weave instead of doing the entire Weld using Stringers (a straight, unweaved, Weld bead). It's a convenient *crutch*, that makes it easier to produce a quality Weld *and* happens to manipulate the Torch close to what you would have (when done properly, and with any 'micro-sliding' *necessary* - IE: Do not walk incorrectly or it (the Weld) won't be OK). For Experts to attempt: Don't walk, run. Assuming an entirely manual process of Welding (no 'PipeMaster' manipulator, but rotation by motor is OK) it *is* better to Weld all Stringers (same as the Root, it's a Stringer) and push the Wire (manually) the same as "Wirefeed TIG" - simply push forward on the Torch and *shove* the Wire in (like Soldering, just shove it in). After Root and Fill you likely want to Weave the Cap to make the Cap polished smooth, a Stringer Cap *is* acceptable but it should be *smooth* also - smoothness comes from cranking it (and Welding correctly). YT, Rob

the best!!!

it's a video ..& nice work

Good video, but wish you would've shown the video of the 2 stringer bead cap?

Rest the cup > Do figure of 8 > Pull backward while going forward. Got it! Thanks, guys.

question about the filler rod . Is there any movement of the filler rod as the tungsten moving towards it? .Or does filler rod stay stationary as it is being deposited in to weld puddle? thanks!

Just lay the wire for practice (Don't move it, just let pac man eat it), then once you get comfortable with your torch control, start feeding in wire to make a larger weld. Pause on your edges to fill the undercut.

I had a quick question. What amperage are you set at? I understand that amperage settings are probably dependent on the specs of the piece as well, but I'm curious as to what amperage you're running at.

Bob reminds very me of my old boss old time welder who knows his stuff and don't ever suggest anything other then how he does it not in a bad way just someone you need to pay attention to because his time is more valuable then any class you will ever pay for

i would like this man to teach me more about welding .... specifically tig welding ... looks interesting and his welds are really really amazing ..... respond to this pleasse

Strictly my own opinion as a 25yr welder who does alot of tig,mainly stainless pipe,I do not walk the cup ever.Ive always felt its a cheater technique for people with shaky hands. Nonetheless Bob is very knowledgeable&has taught me some valuable tips,many thanks!

I need some serious help on this. Biggest issues are... How to start a plate where u can't walk at 1st? I try and free hand but without a place to prop I usually end up dunking tungsten. Then once I get going parts will flow smooth and others I stick,skip ahead or am just going side to side with no forward progress. Do u have any joints to practice on or any tips? Need to get this down for 6g Tig cert.. have asme ix in smaw now but need Tig to be employable.. help please
