[mightykong86]

[thanxx]

fucking assholes coming on here dissin this guy when i can see he obviously knows he's stuff.

like he said "thanks for telling him to do what he does" lol

[paramandans]

I can run a beutiful little bead that looks like stainless on Alum. without any preheat.....just one of many tricks I know!!!!

[PatrioticAnarchist]

What I do is wear a MIG glove for my right hand when aluminum tig welding, and a normal workglove for my left for having a better feel on feeding the rod. Getting real comfortable helps.

[JCVDFan1]

thank god i have thick leather gloves....i was just gonna buy some thin ones today...

[snivesz32]

Yeah would be a good idea to preheat that piece first. Also switch to a heavier glove. Whatcha making?

[oxen10550]

hey dummy you need to pre heat one inch think allumnum first thats why you burnd your self. and 380 amps is waaaaaaaay to high you should never go higher than 200

[500passwords]

a real man aint afraid to show a mistake, everybody gets burnt sometime welding . good job

[SerbianResistance]

In austria we have weldingmachines for stuffelectrode welding...it costs around 50 € and its tig compatible...a professionel tig welding machine costs 20 times more :D

[tmunny1313]

hey moron, just hold the TIG torch properly and you wont feel the heat.

[abrahamx]

what an asshole

[lukzter]

How much is a Tig Welder Machine like this on the Video?

[abrahamx]

could'nt realy see what he was using, but at least a grand usd I would imagine or even twice or more than that

[SirNails]

It depends on the way the arc is created. Simple and cheap tic torches are using a short circuit. It's cheap but pretty quick and dirty. There is also the high frequency ignition. Torches with this feature are very expensive. You can get good ones at around 1100 USD.

[abrahamx]

a good used one for 1100, but not new.

[SirNails]

Oh yes, you're right. My fault :-)

[babyjaedyn]

Vuoi iscriverti ad una comunità di saldatori che non hanno ancora la telecamera ma vorrebbero averla?

vieni con noi

[zampadibradipo]

Attento alle scottature e metti la maschera alla telecamera altrimenti non si vede nulla

[85raminator]

you dont need thicker gloves, put on a cool hand, in my last job i used to do heavy aluminum tig like that alot and the cool hand helped, yo could also put a bend in the filler rod, so you can hold your hand further away from the puddle and still have control over it

Nice fab work!

[6psycho9]

those tig welding gloves are good to feed the rod more and more because any thicker u wont have control, and the hand is 2 close to the heat or ur pusshin 2 much gas, make sure its on 25-30 , and aluminum bout 15-20 for the gas

[ardillavolante]

more help.

thank you

[Trecares]

It's hard not to anyway. Need the fine motor control. Besides his gloves aren't thick enough. I have a set looks just like that. Just about as thick as a pair of leather driving gloves or something, not thick enough on the back of the fingers to protect it from the heat.

[cr4zyw3ld3r]

Are you still beginning to weld or what?

[ardillavolante]

what? you don't make any sense.

beginning to weld or what?

what do you mean?

[Taggra]

First off, wear safety glasses, that is the last line between you and the UV light

Second, don't put your hand so close

[ardillavolante]

thanks for telling me how to do what I do.

[Taggra]

No problem

[JonSpink]

should I wear safety glasses too when I weld? also I`m thinking about carrying acid, should I use a bottle or just hold it in my mouth?

[thegenrl]

@ardillavolante seriously, everyone's a fucking know-it-all
