  So I am looking to learn to weld, this video is 2 years old. What do you think of it now? I plan on using it for making Jeep parts and hobby welding.

  Looks good! I was always told push not pull for better gas coverage, 3/4” stick out and run higher cfh with aluminum than usual mig welding?! Seems it all went well for ya nonetheless! Kudos! Aluminum is fun!!

  Spot on 100%. If you pull which you should try to avoid because it's easy to get porosity, you have to crank the gas higher for coverage. I pulled this to manipulate the amperage. By pulling you can cheat it a little to make it run a little cooler.

  I've found another way to use them. No need to cut the ends of the packaging off. If you look closely at the tee rail the sockets slide on, near one end is a partially molded piece that pops off. Now you slide each socket down and off the rail so that helps. Now take each socket to your vise and clamp up socket and use pliers to pull out remaining post with pliers. Look close at each post and you'll see partially molded slots on each post. Take a hacksaw, razor knife or I found using a sawzall blade by hand and open up those slots. This allows posts to compress as you pull sockets on and off. Now, slide them all back on the rail one at a time.

  I tested some thick to thin fillet welding on DCEN with these 6013, 1/16th. Welding .042" walled conduit pipe to 1/8" plate. It was extremely frustrating on DCEN. Even on high amperage the penetration was ZERO. Switched to DCEP and then the weld was reliable. So I would be careful about looks versus testing the weld.

  Another happy customer, Brandon!!! So, a few bucks, and a little time, and there you have it....a repaired item that is better than new.....those welds where they broke did not look too good!!! Love the use of the Crescent Wrench for straightening the metal. Good tip!!! Thanks and be well, be safe, and be Blessed!!!

  Hey Brandon, nice repair and a good explanation of the job as always. That's why I follow you and look at the videos. Aluminum is a very strange metal that you can compare with solder lad? when you don't see it, it's gone before you know. If people, who almost can't weld, ask me to learn them weld aluminum, I always say " start with stainless steel" that is much easier than aluminum. I wish you a very good weekend and greetings from the Netherlands.

  Beautiful repair and a learnsome lesson of that great spoolgun. Interesting to know that a spoolgun has its limitations on difficult to reach spaces. We've to switch to TIG then. Fabulous job Brandon. Aluminium is the least preferable ally I like to weld on. Very soft and the cleaning it requires. You can't permit making one fault whereas steel is more forgiving. Enjoyed it enormously. Thanks and greetz from holland.😃💯💥👌

  Brandon, I noticed you pulled the welds. Didn't you mention push the weld instead of pulling because of contamination?

• 
  @BrandonLundКүн бұрын

  I did and you are correct. I had to do some manipulation because my settings were still a little too hot. The idea of pushing is to ensure you have good gas coverage ahead of your weld pool. I cranked the gas a little higher to allow for it. Good eye! 👌

  Two things. 1. Before you put the zip ties in remove all the sockets, then slide all the holders off, tap them on a sander of your choice or a dremel and you can be more precise 2. I would only cut off the bottom end, keep the top end so you can tell at a glance if your grabbing SAE or Metric. I have never thrown those socket holder away and I keep all the sockets on them, it tells me if I have left one lay.....

  How is expanded metal labeled? You said that was #9, would #10 be thicker or is it like wire gauge? I have a tandem axel car hauler trailer that the wood has rotted off of. I would like to replace the wood with expanded metal but I don't know how to order what I need. Thanks!

• 
  @BrandonLund4 күн бұрын

  Expanded metal comes in all types and sizes. You can get flat, raised and you can get different size openings. I used #9 3/4 which around here is the most common for car trailers and landscape trailers. The smaller you go for example, a #6 would be heavier than a #9.

• 
  @1978garfield3 күн бұрын

  @@BrandonLund Thanks! I would like to go pretty heavy. I can never get a straight answer on is the wood in a car hauler just decking or is it structural. My plan is to take off all the rotten wood, see what I have to work with and go from there. Many people have resurfaced these trailers either with expanded metal or something like 1/8" sheet. I doubt most of them were engineers. I would not try to build a trailer. However I think I can safely reskin one. Thanks again!

• 
  @BrandonLund2 күн бұрын

  I've done a bunch of commercial trailers. The long flat bed over the road trailers use custom milled oak that has a lap joint on each edge. For typical car haulers and equipment trailers, just regular pressure treated lumber from the big box stores works great. They both use a black oxide bugle shaped self threading bolt to fasten the wood to the metal framing.

  Very nice work. Good presentation - you show/demonstrate as you talk ( I dislike the long-winded videos where the majority of the presentation shows the talker displaying his/her dental work or imperfections thereof). As a retired engineer from the Defense industry, may I suggest test fitting a piece that took significant design/layout/fabrication effort prior to finish welding it. (I required this of my engineers and technicians, and the cost of the incremental test steps - mechanical and electrical was always factored in the contract. Precluded huge and expensive problems many times)

  I love doing things that way. My latest video (I think) was building a set of custom shelves and I did it this way. I built patterns, then I built the final project to those pattterns. I was so confident in the patterns that I sent the finished product direct to powdercoat without even test fitting them and when they came back, they fit like a glove 👌
