Tig Welding TIPS for Mitred Corners! TRY THIS!🔥🔥

Another request came in via my Instagram, someone wanted help with Tig Welding tips for welding out a Mitred Corner! And I said HECK YES! I love this joint! It's really common, simple, and I would argue one of the BEST chances someone can have to practice getting dialled. If you can master this joint, then you are definitely styling and on your way to laying some nice lines on more difficult joint configurations. So grab a clean tungsten and a cup of coffee, and let's party.

I just recently got a new Miller Infinity with the HD that enabled me to see that thin line of contaminant coming out of the joint and down the center of the pool. I did not realize it could be traveling in from the inside of the joint. I will be trying your tips in the morning!!! Thanks Dusty!!!!

    Thanks for all your videos. You've helped me tremendously with aluminum joints. Especially helpful is your emphasis on patience at the start of a weld in establishing a proper puddle. The difference between a beautiful and consistent bead and a row of sooty, ugly pebbles seems most often to be the result of impatience and poor prep.

I was welding up this joint this week (actually mitred alu angle - 2") and I found I was getting better results by grinding the open corners flat so I could get better pen. When I left the points on, I found them kinda thick. That said, the crap off the grinder wheel made the welds really drossy, even though I "cleaned" them with acetone :D What's your view on this?

    When welding mitered corners on tubing especially thicker tubing as you do in this video . Why do you not bevel the edges of the tubing in order to get more penetration and a flatter finished weld ? I would have beveled the edge first was just wondering why you left it square and flat your welding is beautiful I’m not critiquing just wondering I can understand on thin tubing but I usually bevel thicker material 3/16-1/4 and definitely anything thicker

    OK, This was good, but..1st; it was hard to tell the succession of the weld joints. I think you kind of went over it at the end and if I understand it was "butt-outside corner-butt-fillet". 2nd, you need to describe about how much your stepping on the foot pedal. I'm pretty sure you did not weld all those joints at 200 amps. Maybe a little more narrating about the things you automatically do for us fledgling beginners. I'm just saying that the tasks that are second nature to you are not to a beginner. Sorry I don't mean to sound negative just trying to learn. Love your work and thanks for sharing. OH and one other thing. Any tips on using a foot pedal other than sitting, like standing up or kneeling down? I tried it the other day (I was welding steel, repairing a log splitter) and boy was that weird. I've always been a lift arc starter and am new to a pedal & finger trigger.
