!!!!!!look at his nails!!!!! 1:02

[EddyKicksAss]

Worst "How to" I have ever seen. All you showed was a really far away shot of you welding.

[wroughtirondude]

Great demo on one of the old tricks of the trade. Nice=)

[Guitarist101]

wicked cheers mate.

[papapetad]

@hexcane i've heard something like that before...ella fitzgerald and louis armstrong. Was surprised to see it in this comments section :)it was potatoes and tomatoes and stuff but yeah

[racerguy500]

It should be obvious to fill the hole. You have to weld to the steel and fill it, so round and round, side to side, whatever you want. You're just filling a hole with weld then grinding it off to make it flush.

[RyersonRobert]

I cannot comment on the Technical side of the welding, but please if you are going to make video's that you want people to learn from get the sound sorted out as it is rather important to be able to hear everything apart from the grinder.

[Tramsootru]

@RyersonRobert Were the subtitles in the video when you made this comment?

[RyersonRobert]

@Tramsootru No there are no subtitles, maybe the sound track could be added after the vid is made, would be very clear then.

[Tramsootru]

@RyersonRobert Mine plays subtitles. Maybe click the CC button at above the view count and you too can have subtitles.

[RyersonRobert]

@Tramsootru Thank you for that.

[abrogard]

He showed us nothing! Brass underneath doesn't weld, well okay, that's something. But how did he fill the hole? Round and round the rim? In the centre? What size wire for what size metal? What volts for such a job (where there's no penetration required except on the edges) ? And you're going to show this to a welding class? Might as well show it to a bakery class.

[IIDASHII]

Did you fill from the outside in or from the inside out?

[FEEDTHEDEER1]

am blind

[domandybiking]

help me i was practising using a mig welder and i connected it up to some metal and it just turned off and now it wont turn back on again

[vessbo1234567]

@domandybiking yer either your fuse has gone, of one of your fases has gone on the lead if its 3 fase

[Lovasi2]

@vessbo1234567 Phase.

[smallenginemods]

@domandybiking dude it happens to me all the time, your breaker switch in your home got shut off for the outlit just turn it back on and youll be all good

[beckenheim101]

hmm, drilling trough a weld is harder, drilling trough half the welded area and the normal metal...if you need a precise hole that can be tricky lol

[Oldsmob455]

"Aluminium" 

[lucky51762]

You should be wearing your gloves.

[lucasthomasemailcom]

Nice video and a great tip! I prefer to use aluminum as my backing plate, but I don't have to pay for it, my boss does... :-)

[ghostrider433]

Thank you! next weekend im gonna use this on my pocket bike that needs reparing!

im only 13 so i have no idea what im doing. ill have my dad help me though

w00t

[Ari2k8]

u can use ceramic tile aswell lol :D

[helloman1976]

The f-ing clamps hold it into position? Get angry!

[jrpg909]

wow, adjust your machine old timer. either lower the feed rate on your wire or turn up the voltage>

[Tennant909]

never lay your grinder face down you old cunt

[LRSS46]

Old tricks that are learned working hard at your job. Thanks for the tip! Good Vid!

[DarkFuryPunisher]

Did he say Adamantium?

[mta415]

@DarkFuryPunisher  Aluminum, but he sounds like al-loo-many-um.

[ekologikjno82]

wow :D

[thebirdistheword93]

ur the uglest muther fucker ive seen 

[thanxx]

Hey man , you,your beard and your welding skills are turning into quite an internet legend!

Keep up the good work and thanks for the tips.

[formosalaurie54]

good job well done. I will be showing this clip to my welding class.

[chevyvictor]

ear muffs?

[jeffurry77]

great. But he was'nt wearing ear protection, in that garage, the noise! bet his ears are ringing.

[gheatwole]

Next time, they should put the mic on him instead of on the table. Christ.

I turned it up to hear him talk, and got an earful with that grinder.

[jeeeeeff007]

Next time punch the frigging hole in the right place.......

[freakboynv2000]

next time shut the fuck up and spare us your lame ass comments.

[formosalaurie54]

i suppose you such a shit hot welder , why dont you just shut up

[kiotikid]

It took me a while but I think what he did was to fill the hole with the wire weld?? Using a backing plate of some type.

Would that be correct? Being a newbie I would not have thought of this. Nicely done!

[Necrokutan]

He used the brass to make sure that the wire from the MIG laid flat and stuck while liquid so that it wouldn't drip or bead along the bottom before it turned solid again.

I think that answers your question?

[kiotikid]

Just got a mig a couple of month ago and haven't used a mig at all. Thank you. I'm beginning to get the picture. Kid

[Cstrife234]

Lol didn't you listen to him? He said that he was using a non ferric metal (in this case, brass) underneath the metal with the hole, so that when he would fill the hole with the molten steel it wouldn't stick to anything, but would fill the hole.

[kiotikid]

Nice going - It all seems so simple when you know what you're doing. Thank you!

[detroitbluesguy]

We use a slug of copper as a back up.JC

[kiotikid]

My mig is still in box. Will keep this in mind when I need to use it for the first time for this situation. Thanks for your reply.

[salemcripple]

Why not bust that thing out? Hell i go out and weld stuff together just for the fun of it lol.

[oioi1988]

id recommend the use of ceramics. easier

[jobbly1234]

expert village more lik amateaur village u dnt need any brass behind a hole dat small dat was about 7-9 mill hole iv filled in a 21.5 mill hole without anything u jst blast it on turn it over blast it again c wen u clean it of wit da grinder u dnt need to clamp it hold da metal wit 1 hand n grinder wit da other y r dey geting ppl to teach others wen der da 1s dat need teaching BLOODY AMATEAURS

[daaero]

Everyone has to start somewhere, You weren't born with the experience you have now. Comments like that just show your mental age

I think these videos are great

[theweirdthings]

@daaero they help me quite a bit and im 14 haha hope to weld at my uncles this summer

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

@theweirdthings you should practice welding on your uncle. tie him up, chuck it on the most aggressive setting, and go fucking nuts on him !

[theweirdthings]

@1973mazdarx4coupe what the fuck is wrong with you you fucking sick bastard

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

@theweirdthings its only a SUGGESTION you whackjob ! watch my vids for pro advice on tricking

[theweirdthings]

@1973mazdarx4coupe no its not a suggestion its just a fucking phsyco being retarded

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

@theweirdthings i suggest you protest by committing suicide ! or watch my videos

[theweirdthings]

@1973mazdarx4coupe haha not after that little stunt you fuck up

[1973mazdarx4coupe]

@theweirdthings i wish you all the best in your pitiful life

[theweirdthings]

@1973mazdarx4coupe wow your pathetic 

[formosalaurie54]

you should go back to school and learn some maners, you obviously dont know much about welding

[STARRPORR]

@formosalaurie54 Sir you should really learn to spell before commenting on others efforts.

[salemcripple]

Just for your own good. If you want to correct someone, you might want to use PROPER ENGLISH! It's awfully hard to take someone seriously when they for some reason can't use a "th" in anything they say. It makes you look like a dumbass tween.

[peanut8500]

what kind of loser sits on youtube, clearly trying to teach themselves something, ( or you wouldn't have searched for this vid or watched it then pokes fun at someone accomplished enough to make a video for the benefit of others? SALEMCRIPPLE.....MY GUESS IS YOU LIVE IN SALEM AND YOUR BRAIN IS CRIPPLED

[salemcripple]

Did you even take the time to read the conversation that was going on? If you had, you probably wouldn't have wrote that. Here's a hint, I wasn't commenting on the video smart one! Do yourself a favor and know what someone is talking about BEFORE butting in! By the way, nice insult jackass. You really showed your intellectual prowess on that one.

[astranine]

The video is "how to fill in a hole with a MIG welder". It is assumed you know how to set up and use the welder and have some knowlege of the MIG welding process.

[parkertr2]

these guys are f'n useless at making help videos

[OregonDARRYL]

Maybe you could turn the welder OFF and show us exactly what you are doing with the wire, THEN turn it on and do it.

[dilltron24]

what setting did u have your welder on? i usually use a cold weld to fill holes

[04steeler]

because you are thick @_@

[bjarneolsen1]

why did i not learn anything from this video ?
