I don't think you would want an inspector to see any of your welds period, that is some of the worst arc welding I've seen in a long time and I live on a farm!
lol this guy knows nothing... honestly... u dont wip and pause with a 7018... ull get slag inclusion.. u only wip and pause 6010.. goood luck passing a bend test dumbsht
@95347stroker.... Stroker, go back to stroking yourself. If you watch the video, he is wipping with the e6010, then comes back with a 7018 and doesn't whip that rod. You retard! I liked the videos. I just love all of these self-proclaimed arm-chair wanna be welders talkn shit. PUT UP YOUR VIDEOS and let's see how retarded your stringers look! Jack ass.

okie??, here's the go, your root pass needs more deposit on the back of the plate, push your rod in more. your hot pass was fecking horrible, if you can see individual platelets of weld on your hot pass, ITS NOT HOT ENOUGH! run a spray arc on your cap, if you run it hot you get a better finished weld profile. especially with 18's
holy shit! you are trying to sell this trash to people.... I guess your welds are uniform, they all look like shit! and that was the easyiest weld position possible. Sorry to say but if you layed that weld on an interview with me I would have stopped after one pass and this vidio could have been the best of 25 welds.... Some times the truth hurts...

Dude.., your electrode angle is wrong, as is your heat and travel speed. Its a solid weld but looks like shit on a white horse. Of coarse I weld for a living so I'm a little pickier than you, but don't give up you'll get it.
Dude, I'm sorry but your weld looks like ass. I promise you that you have trapped slag through out that whole fill. Maybe you should buy someone elses "Learn to Weld" video's and get yourself up to speed. WOW, just wow!?
when i close my eyes it sounds right. when i watch it looks right. i don't see anything cooking out so i know you are clean. i think young welders are taught to grind too much and they don't have the experience with cooking out tiny slag pits. that is a solid weld. it would obviously pass. if i were inspecting i wouldn't even bother to shoot it.
your 7018 looks like garbage... I would have used 1/8 7018 and also your technique for welding up hill is a joke... I wouldn't pay you anything for a DVD... I would pay for you to have some more welding lessons though....
i have tried to get footage of a weld and it was either to bright or to dark i do things somewhat different than you do but i like a hot machine to kudos on the footage you can really see whats happening
I think this is a good video,this is where we all start at with plate on a welding table or bench,we need more quality videos like this,good job thanks joe
When your putting down the cover pass it looks like your almost pushing the rod instead of dragging it. Isnt 7018 a drag rod. If it was vertical up I would understand but at the end of the video it looks like its in the flat position.
good looking welds, something that I have come across while taking weld tests is that often you will not be allowed to use a grinder or wire wheel while testing. that sort of scenario is where you really learn if you have your skills together or not. Really cool vid, I like actually showing people exactly what welding is, most don't realize just how much finesse is required. Good Job!
think about this idea. what is the difference in welding a root on a pipe or a plate? why couldn't you use the stuff and drag method on plate just like you would on a pipe weld?
that is what I demonstrated. the root on the back of the plate was fine with no whipping stepping extra energy. I just stuffed the rod through like I made a pipe weld. sorry I jumped on you about the 1/4"
cool i'll bring my camra in friday! hey! look up..... tig pipe dorks....not the best but just new at this u tube stuff. u can see the weld going in though!
@randy4536... It's been two year! Still waitn to see your "bitchen" video. Where is it jack ass? [cricketts......cricketts....... cricketts......] Thaaaat's what we thought, chump!
im on 6013 2,5 on a 6 mil plate but joint i have passed most of my course but the but is taking longer becouse i keep blowing out or not enouth weld bead :( so im happy at the moment becouse im improve over time people with stick are still learning i know i have long way only after three weeks of course and only 5 weeks left
Feivel69 yeah your weak and and it seem that you will learn the hard way. In fact you are on the yellow brick road to the hard school of knock with welding. Your probably already getting it in school but are too dumb to know it. That is why you are using 1/4" rod only three weeks into the course.They are just saying yeh what a dumb ass.1st thing is you never diss a person that is helping you.2nd a true welder does not compare welds.A weld inspector compares.last time I read yur green
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i dont really think this guy is great and i dont think he would pass a CWA or CWB certification test. lots of undercut and contamination. im taking a welding course and im 3 weeks in and i think he sucks (he knows what he is doing but need a lil more practice) the school is giving us excalibur 7018 1/4 inch to weld with and im runing 125amp and my welds are beautiful, a lot nicer looking than his, i stick to the plate at anything under 110 !!!
actually, I have passed more tests than you have been alive I am sure. There is no undercut whatsoever on these welds.
I will say that working with a camera directly over your shoulder and lighting in your face did make my welds not as smooth as I would like them. All you critics out there have absolutely no clue about what it takes to film and produce something like this. If you were using 1/4" welding rod you are brain dead. LOL My goodness man, you would burn up the common plate test!!!
i am 47 yrs old. i've been welding for close to thirty yrs. in the last 6 monthes i have passed 2 6g PQ's and 3 6g WQT's on stick, flux core, and stainless tig. anytime i am given the chance to learn or improve my technique or knowledge i am greatful for it. Michael is pretty good. 1/4" 7018? dude! seriously? awesome.
thats because you dont use a 7018 for a root you use a 6011 or 6010 which i run mine on 92 im 17 been in college for 9 mouths im working on stick vert & overhaed right now ( i made an A- on my vert bc ive already took the course but im not satisfied with it so im doing it again you try to weld a open root with a 7018 and ee how long you last and another i belive i can weld better than you bud ive been doin it 4 12 hours a day 4 days a week and 5 hr on friday for 9 months now just stick
also ...... im still in high school last year b4 i started college i woke up at 5:30 4 times a week to meet my shop teacher at the high school so i could get sum practice in b4 all the freshman came in and i had to teach them im not shitting you im going to make something of my life im not going to end up like most ppl down here in south GA do when i get out in the field welding i want the old journeymen to respect me but mostly i want to amaze the hell out of them by what i can do
another thing dude i think you just earned the title of DICK. i bust my ass hes damn good and trying to help you ........ you know what i think ill give you an up grade your now an ASSHOLE
@Feivel69 ive been welding for about 5 years or so and if theres one thing ive learned its this....its not about how beautiful your weld looks its about the penotration (sorry i know the spelling is bad) you could weld a beautiful weld on 1/4 inch plate and it break every time and u can run the worst lookin weld ever and it pass a bend test and x-ray every time let me put some of your weld and some of my welds in the bender and we'll see who's good
one of the biggest things to remember is the sound if it dosent sound like a rocket ship when your welding the root you most likley not penitrating enough
well when you drag your rod to start it off you shouldn't be doing it where you're welding 'cause you're going to leave some crap where you are going to wel and it can contamiate where you're going to weld and make it weaker
It doesent look good at all, what kind of standards do you have in USA? Your first string did'nt penetrate enough! And i think i can see some binding errors.
watched your tig vids and they are very intresting but the welds in this vid dont look all that impresive . lac of pen and you say you use stuff and drag but the rod looks to be at the wrong angle . keep the vid coming though as some are very good
are you putting landings on yours? if so, how wide and what size gap do you have? im having trouble with my 3g v-groove i cant get my root in very well. and when i do, my hot pass always looks messed up.
Oh I don't know. I just didn't use any. I have taken tests where you didn't have to use a run off. If you bend the specimen you won't use the first inch of each side of your coupon anyway
Can you tell me how you were able to video record the weld without blur?

PAINTBALLFREAK56 2 years ago
undercut is also associated with angle, that is, how high or low above the weldment your electrode is pointing.
Speed can also be a factor, make sure your angle isn't favoring one side, and take the necessary time to let your puddle do it's job and fill up.
I know this because I've finally gotten my hot pass and cap under control myself.
