  • my philosophy is.. if it sounds too good to be true.... it probably is! But I have never read the book.

  • sounds like he's desperate lol

  • If you really want to get good at welding use a journal. Ever seen a High Power Rifle competition? They use a log book to track every weather condition, sight setting/change, call, plot, for every shot fired. They keep notes on their body position, sling, sights, clothing, and way more! If your doing the 6G position its to your benefit to record your Amperage settings, note how you prepare your tacks, how you correct problems, travel angle, etc. Can't improve if you can't track errors.

  • They were considered Divisional welders, they couldn't Fit Pipe for shit but they could burn rod to x-ray quality. They were 1st year Apprentices but were paid Journeyman scale while working at the Nukes. If you like welding, NOT PRODUCTION, real welding go union. Boilermakers and Pipe Fitters Unions are the best for welders. The available work, per diem, wages, are huge. You can also be an rig welder on a Pipe Line working for yourself charging $100+ per hour. Think Keystone XL.

  • The guy is not completely full of shit, there are no shit jobs out there where you can $30hr-$100+hr. You just have to be a no shit 6G welder on a couple of welding processes, like Stickin/out, Stick in TIG out, TIG in Tig OUT. 4 years ago there was a very big demand for welders. My local Union hall took in a few applicants for apprentices, it was different than the normal method. They had to go to welding school at the hall on their own time, once they got certified, they went to nuke jobs.

  • this guy is a fruad

  • if you had 20 of the best welders in the world teaching you you couldnt learn in 60 days. im 18 and i can pass a 6g on stick still working on tig but ive been welding since i was 13 best way to do it is get everything you need, get a job as a helper and practice in spare time,

  • I left that company after 2 years making 9.60 hr. hired in at a non union rail car company for 11 hr. and have been there for 8 years currently making 14.80 hr..

  • i learned to weld when I was 15..got my first welding job at air tek. inc. they had thousands of jigs that held exhaust/converter pipes, flanges o2 sensor bungs and air tubes ect. into place.i started out at 6.50 an hour at 19 years old. they were real strict about the welds and they had to pressure test every last one for epa. I thought well i would move up quick being a decent welder, boy was I wrong..

  • this dude is full of shit !!! the book can be very informative but the only way you will become a good welder is if you practice,practice,practice!!! school will provide the material as pipe, rod's and machine is not cheap !!! aint no book gonna make you a good welder that's a fact !!

  • no F'n WAY??? u neeed to go to school....and even then need years of experience to be really good.....

  • im 36 years young and went to welding school 3 years ago i saved money bought a truck n machine and made close to a 100,000 last year.wouldnt want to do anything else.

  • I've been welding for 20 years. Nowadays no one wants to pay you any real money. If they do, you have to travel all over the friggin country. Case in point, I took a TIG 6G stainless test for this company and they had the unmitigated balls to offer $13 an hour. I laughed all the way to my truck. I'm just jaded i guess. That's why I'm starting my own business.

  • this is bullshit

    i got a certificat from welding that means gas welding and cutting

    arc

    mig mag

    tig

    and i am stil getting mastered in mig mag and tig dint get any lessons a bit of theorie and some show offs more not its all about practice if i want i train a day for the certificat for pipe welding with stick(arc) and ill pas

  • If you can get into boilermakers or pipe fitters union you can make 50 60 k a year. I made 47k my first year and I didn't pay a dime for school. Just a 90$ welding hood and 30 $ welding jacket.

  • so your telling me that a college welding student with a 3.5 gpa will weld worse then a guy who read your book?

  • im already at 56k this year and still going haha and im only a structure welder and i learned at my house watching "how to weld" youtube videos :)

  • this is a bunch of bull crap. he just wants your money and doesnt care about if you make so much just starting out. listen no one is going to just start out welding on top. theres just no way. plus your not going to make 75,000 your first year ever welding to. go find a good school like tulsa welding and start from there. after that go buy the offshore welders guide for 25 bucks not no 67 dallors. your not going to learn how to weld from a book.

  • This guy talks alot but I am not hearing anything making want to buy a book from him. Sounds like a scam to be honest

  • Hello there I am a french canadian and willing to go to welding in alberta. I've done 3 years of welding in 2 different vocational courses. First is welding and fitting second is pipe welding. I own a few cwb card and I have 3 years of job experiences.

    Do yo guys think that if I go there in AB, companies would hire me a 35$/h jobs ? Do I need more certification like the red seal for example ? Do I need more experience ?

    Otherwise I go there like right now :)

  • I took 2 years of highschool welding and we would look in the book maby once a month. I took a 1 year college welding program and we would spend the first hour of the day looking in the welding book. From what i've learned, the only thing the books are usefull for are the flow charts. A steady hand and a sharp eye come from experience, not from reading.

  • @s46d45m17 where you from man, im a pipefitter but i work with lots of welders. we are all union workers that im with and they are making $35+ an hr and gettin crazy OT hours. most of us are making over 100k a year...but i am in canada. and i live 30 min away from home and i see my family everyday....people with no training or schooling are makin 20 hr at a mill. its very hard to get a job tho with no exp.

  • all that talk dont matter when your camera man is a fucking retard :)

  • @s46d45m17 its sad but true i been building expansion joints for years now welding all types materials .

    I'm 6g certified in g maw ; smaw; f caw; gt aw shit I'm still in the teens with my pay

  • why do are you so nervous

  • WAS IT WORTH THE MONEY??? ABSOLUTELY

  • I READ THE BOOK AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. REGARDLESS OF UR SKILL LEVEL. THE BOOK IS NOT GONNA TEACH YOU TO WELD...WE ALL KNOW HANDS ON IS THE SKILL BUILDER. ITS HARD TO EXPLAIN...YOU HAVE TO READ IT. I WAS SKEPTICAL WHEN I CHECKED OUT HIS WEBSITE...TO EACH THEIR OWN. WAS IT WORTH TJE MPM

  • The best way to learn something is hands on in the field. Learn about your surroundings with safety in mind first. Union apprenticeship would be a good way to start. Wages, benefits, and conditions would surpass what others have to offer...

  • I have a 4g. I didn't know 6g was already available. I'm gonna have to check on that and the just to let you know I can weld half inch steel in one pass with the Iweld app on my 3G iPhone at a 100 duty cycle. And yes i am only joking with this comment. : )

  • I can't imagine someone teaching themselves to 6g. Without a beveling mechine, life would be hard. I'm in school though. I'm on horizontal pipe. You don't learn to weld pipe in 60 days even with the fancy equipment and 2 instructors a shout away. Good luck to anyone who tries this. 

  • Sounds like some1 is shoveling shit ! Guys go to school do it the right way

  • A book isn't going to teach you how to weld and a company isn't going to hire you if you go into the interview saying you learned how to weld from a book

  • alberta is the place, but gotta be tig welder, 80k in 11.5 weeks ,

  • @HierPower Hahaha. Thats so true it's not even funny. When he talks about going overseas he's probably talking about Kuwait or somewhere near a war zone near the oil fields. What else would anyone need to weld pipe for other than natural gas or oil?

  • @CMink7777

    try ANY port. anywhere there is pipes. you want to work on a rig? 36 an hour easy. nuclear facilities, pipelines, power plants. the list goes on

  • I am not a welder but I would like to be. will this book help me become a welder from beginer? I would love to order this book study practice call and get certified. can this help? Im kinda under the impression that it is a book telling you to buy diffrent books & dvds. I have very limited funds so I would like to buy this book and win. Please let me know

  • school is the why to go it gives good background a book doesnt do sh*t

  • ICC is a Certified Welding Inspector? I thought that was a Structual Code Clinic? Are you a Certified Welding Educator, or a AWS CWI? Are you a member of the AWS? The trade needs people, but there is more to it then reading a book, I believe you should be honest and tell people that the best way is to catch on as a welders helper, and learn the trade before you outfit and try it on your own.

  • Kool

  • @3rni3PL For must of us rig welders or pipeliners its about lovin what we do... not about whats easiest. I myself cant sit behind a desk and would rather travel and weld and make money for all of that at the same time.

  • Can this book help me out? Im in my last quarter of welding school and im taking my certs 6g tig, 6g t1, 6g 7018.

  • i have been rigged up for 2 months now in one of the busiest areas in canada. Word to the wise just because you are certified 6g means nothing in journeyman with 6g pressure tickets in 2 provinces and that means nothing its who you know

  • are u still selling da book

  • witch one do you like better Miller or Lincon i like the lincon 200D

  • I LIKE THE PART WHERE HE SAYS IT'S ABOUT MARKETING. IF YOU ARE MARRIED IT'S BECAUSE YOU HAVE MARKETED TO HER TO STAY MARRIED LONG ENOUGH. LOL

  • Im a weld engineer.  I love it more than being a manual welder.

  • i cant 6G to save my life lol

  • @kyle17428 The book is meant to be a comprehensive guide to accelerating your certification and landing a job. Will you need other materials? Yes. Please go to my website and read the FAQ. As for getting a job, what really matters is that you are really really GOOOOOD - And if you can prove that you are so good and I mean in the top 2% of welders (I tell you how to do this) then you can land a job even though you learned without going to school. Thanks for the comment.

  • How many pages is the book? Do you think it's possible to learn every thing from a book?

  • @themomo6710 The book is meant to be a comprehensive guide to accelerating your certification and landing a job. Will you need other materials? Yes. Please go to my website and read the FAQ. Thanks!

  • @themomo6710 The book gives you the detailed path you must take, including what materials and videos you will need. Also, you get the support of the author. 

  • @SHEPARDWISPERER Just go to 100kwelder(dot)com Thank you.

  • This guy is telling you the truth. A lot of welding schools are out to make money, and they drag you through so much training that they don't have to , so they can keep you there as long as they can to get your money. All welding schools should start teaching all students welding 6g pipe, but they won't, that comes last in the schools.

  • IW 377

  • Hey IAMACANADIAN, I agree with your comment. I was finishing up a new kitchen job and normally do the electrics myself but was pressed for time so I rang an electician mate of mine. He used to be a bookeeper but went to night school to be an electrician. The screws he used to fix the lighting under the wall cabinets were too long and came through into ALL the cabinets ruining ALL my work. But hey, the lights worked.....

  • im a 6bg welder in plate not pipe

  • @ghujkk : move to Alberta dude, I make 100K + and I live only 10 minutes from the shop, home every night.

  • @Metalxen did you have to go to collage to get your welding certificate, or did can you do on-the-job training? Im graduating in a few months and looking to work in alberta/fort mcmurray.

  • dude it's NOT that easy.. i'am in fort mac welding pipe for the last 5 years ..it more than just welding.. its a art trying to weld pipe 30 feet in the air up side down with 2 inch clearance on either side of the pipe and a foreman yelling at you to get it done..and if you get a repair your fired.. but it is a good chalange

  • @iamcanadian1978 Your right I worked in the 'outback' in Australia as a 'Pipe Fitter' and met many great welders we were all a real'Band of Brothers'.....and met also some really seriously dysfunctional welding Inspectors who had big time anger managment issues.. Welding it's a tough job and a pressure job regarding that Foreman in your ear "What a Plonker".... We had an oldtime welder known as 'Dad' .. they reckon he was rhe only Welder that could Weld by 'Braille'. Good luck in Fort Mac..

  • @Metalxen Did you get good grades in school

  • @electronicchronic High 80s for most of it

  • Comment removed

  • @Metalxen Alberta.......I bet 100k could buy a sweet ass igloo haha, jk

  • @Metalxen where is that at??

  • @2fastg35 In Edmonton,Alberta,Canada up here we're "B" pressure welders.To quallify you have to be a certified j/man with an iterprovincial red seal.The test we do to quallify is a 6" sched 80 coupon done in the 2& 5 G .The first 1/4 of the root done in 2G,then it gets laid over in 5G with the first 1/4 you just did placed in the upper half,then starting at the 6 o clock root it in all around & fill &cap up to the 2G ,place it in 2G again fill & cap,the 6G here is done on 2" schd160 to recertify

  • @Metalxen Tell me about your job and how old are you how long did it take you?

  • The fact is most people are to lazy to do the HARD work involved in being a proffesional welder

  • any one wants hands on training with the best equipment field like situations"like tie in welds" and muddy situations and also making welds so close to the bank of a ditch, then call me this will be like no other schoolling you've ever got, i have the experience and have made many test for many diferent gas companies, and i have all documentation to prove it...from my school, i will not give you a "DIPLOMA" because what i teache is for pipeline use and nothing else thats where all the "money"

  • At least the man is trying to pass on a useful skill to people, not like all those other "make a million dollars guaranteed in 2 weeks using Google Adsense" con-artists. I hope the course really does help people to pull through these tough times.

  • would like to hear from some one that used this book. it all sounds great but is it realalistic. please let me know

  • I bought the book... verdict is still out. I already knew most of what he's telling about 6G welding.

  • Let me know, cause I just got laid off, and I don't know what to do. I know how to weld, not by book, but by learning on my own.

    So, let me know how it goes. yes?

  • but can you weld on 6G

  • I could weld 6G BEFORE this book was even published.

  • LOL you aint na no welder!!
