[commando7144]

a great tip when welding stainless stick is not to chip the slag ever!! use it to hold your bead just like running jet rod7024

[xxkibafanaticxx]

well when i started to arc weld my welding teacher said for me to use the 6013 rod but i didn't like it more or less, so i still like using the 6010 rod but that me. arc welding for a year lol learn how to use mig and tig

[TheLoneWolf258]

@xxkibafanaticxx 6013s are so easy a baby can literally weld with it lol. I made perfect beads with those the second I started (though I did have some prior experience with welding). They can't really hold that well though.

1 sec ago fuck man, i just started this aluminum welding job and we have to weld huge vent type things. The problem is welding the inside in tight corners and shit. The welds come out to ugly. How do I weld inside corners and really tight spaces nicely?

[HunS22]

6011 makes it easier theres less flux

[pntballer4life01]

@HunS22 6013 is easier 6011 is a little harder because 6011s weld hotter

[ariverasan]

im attending wtc,advanced welding,dude.......its so awesome,and we get so much practice too,we go at it all day,anyone got project ideas to make that i can try?

[kiapolo2002]

welding is actually a lot easier than i thought it would be when i first started out...7018 electrodes are actually the smoothest rods i have worked with so far...6010's just look too sloppy in my opinion...but yeah i run on dcep at anywhere between 90 amps and 100 amps and have little problems with sticking...the only position im really bad with is verticals, so next time i get a chance, im going to try it from the angle he was doing them from...might help...

[GunGemini]

@kiapolo2002

I just started classes yesterday and the first thing out of my instructors mouth is "We are welding with 6011 cause its harder!! If you can weld with 6011 you can weld with anything!"

[TheMick1015]

6010 is the hardest to start welding with cause of the slag . The 6011 doesn't trap slag as easily.

[lavalamp12343]

turn your ampage up and you wont stick as bad...try welding with a 9018 rode is is supper smooth

[darthdude123456]

well 6013 is pretty good for beginers

[TheEliminator1992]

@kiapolo2002

what do you think about 6011s? i find them pretty smooth

[3blindmicefilms]

Have you guys seen "You Can't Weld This!"? It's pretty funny... The guys over at WeldingMart com had it made! Do a youtube search for it :)

[ala4akbar]

GOD BLESS THIS VIDEO and god bless youtube now imma show my classmate show them weld they'll be suprised

[sirlunche]

kool

[MrYacquub1]

i wanna buy this vidoe iam new welder and stading mma welding

[mpoT3CHY]

you need to check your ground or move closer to the base, your rod keeps burning out

[Bradderz203]

Whats The Best Way To Weld a Roll cage out of Metel Box Steel?

[elainmac]

if you dont pause on the sides on a weave ,you welders know what happens,down the road you go

[melaniew77msn]

I graduated from Hobart Institute of welding technology. If you really need to learn how to weld I recomend attending their Combination structure/pipe progam. With the training I recieved from them I have held jobs welding boiler pipe,heavy equipment , and more repair than I can rember.All code I have ever welded to required 7018 a.k.a. 'low-hydrogen' to be run on DCEP meaning Direct Current Electrode Positive. Wonder if that's why he keeps losing his arc.

[2500Jerry]

i graduated from yechnical HS and i took welding for 2 years but before then i had been welding since i was little, i prefer stick welding and my teacher recommended me to HIWT, is it better to take the combination class, cause i was looking into just doing pipe in 2G and 5G

[roaringwaterbay]

@melaniew77msn where is the hobart institute?

[imacf90]

he makes it look easy lol

[czf21]

i take adv pipe in collage is awsome but man is get's hot ass hell

[mastersniper13]

i am taking a welding class at my highschool

[misarasdaniel]

Mig welding is better Co2

[chopperasta]

[coilgunner2]

I really want to purchase this video, I already know how to stick weld but I think I would benefit from it. Looks like a good watch.

[rottiemaz]

have any of you guys cone thermic lancing with your mma sets?

[punishedexistence]

I didn't know Mike Horner knew how to weld...Seriously, informative, as although I can weld, it is not a pretty sight, and I would like to get that "stack of quarters" weld. Well, thanks for the info, I shall use it wisely.

[elainmac]

allways pause on your sides on the weave,any postion.rod angle is everything

[1388dimevader]

stack of dimes is better!!!

[angkasawan2007]

if i want to be a welding inspector should i know how to weld?

[changmappgas]

[rickb731]

who is going to call you on your bs esp. if he is an ironworker you better know your shitand be able to back it up

[millerz2]

It would be handy

[marmaladekamikaze]

How can you adequately inspect without knowing how to weld?

[jeffery19677]

If you want to be a welding inspector who is respected, you need to learn how to weld and get a few years's experience. I remember a weld inspector told my my weld wasn't good enough and I handed him my hood and electrode holder (called a stinger). He looked at me and asked what he was supposed to do with that. I said "Show me what you want."

He said "I can't weld." I said, "Go away and send a real inspector."

He tried to have me fired. Didn't work. They fired him instead. Every welder laughed..

[mastersniper13]

well yeah.

[aoxomoxoa88]

It would really help!

[martinxlive]

I miss welding : ( I took it for all four years in high school and I ended up with some decent welds. brings back good memories

[taigaboi]

im goin to be a welder. it takes time to be good at it but he said alot of good stuff

[Seamart07]

A lot easier for this guy or for the viewers if he or the viewers used DCEP rather than trying to teach using AC current

[msanchez007]

I remeber I opened a little welding shop and the only welding machine I could buy was a small arc welder. I did everything with it, windows, doors, rails, I even had to weld sheetmetal with stick welding.

[Dragula12]

i'm 16, junior in high school in oregon. we just recently had a welding skills competition and i got first place in arc welding. Won a 225 amp arc welder, $250 scholarship, and a bunch of other little things like electrode containers and stuff

[welshbarbarian]

well guys as long as its fused with adequate penetration it doesnt fucking matter how you bevel etc etc. simple really, amd of course heat and keep it clean. done

[videofp]

Is this video for sale anywhere??

[videomandw]

yes, this video is for sale. for purchase information, look to the right of the video screen under "about this video". it gives all order information including price.

[6lfcash6]

omg people fighting over welding

well let me say ;)

IM first year apprentice pipefitter and im not too bad at welding.. have done MMA and TIG

Tig has to be easier but mma isnt bad.. leaves alot of slaggy shit around the pipe though >:[

Ash From Grimsby :D

[samcotterellrules]

aaargh! welding nerds! roflmao

sorry welding is really cool i do it at school i made a go-kart and a motorbike.

they rock TIG welds are the best

[jeffery19677]

Good welding nerds make $100k or better a year. I make $80 and take the winter off.. Whose laughing now.

[williamschad9]

I have a 120 arc welder. I use it for light stuff. But I am planning on getting a 220 amp welder. I am definately a beginner. Welding does rock. I got my first weld to stick together after a few tries. But now it sticks everytime. This little video helped.

[cowboy42088]

welding a easy skill to learn hard skill to master

[johnnythedrummer]

im in welding at skool...and this video has been really helpful, i just started arcing yesterday...but im only on my practice piece until i start A-1

[LILPICKUPMAN]

a person can learn to weld in a week. and a different person might not learn to make a good weld in a year... no way to answer that

[tkhiebs]

6010 root 7018 fill and cap.

[vilimaaman]

anybody got any advice on how to make a air tight weld between two pipes? needs to withstand presures of about 160 psi. using a stick welder.

[1Calisto]

Root with tig then hotpass and cap with stick.

If you're a novice you've no chance.

[turkeylips17]

just weld the same as you would a straight bead, making sure that you make a smooth bevel over the edges. clean all slag off between runs and stop-starts to endure minimal contamination and good fusion

[cazloty25]

What you want do is bevel the pipes to about a 1/16" landing. Weld it in a few passes, depending on the diameter of the pipe. Be shur to clean it good in-between passes, blend in the tows and use the correct amps. That's about it! Good luck.

[Jokenimo]

I guess it depends on the pipes thickness, I mean man... make sure the pipe is thicker than it has to, then jus weld them two pipes together. and err... I donno, what metal would the pipe consist of? if its a NiCr steel for carrying acid or the like I mean... then you'd need one electrode. if its a MbFe steel for carrying extreme airpressures under short time, or if its like whatever it may be... jus ask some guy selling electrodes which type you should buy.

[mustangalex08]

im in metal shop and i am def gettin into welding after i graduate this year

[remain666]

i've been startin learning weld MMA,, boy thats difficult,, ! it's fun to !

[psychoschizophrenic]

good for you! MMA is great! definitely fun:P

[nikiliste]

anyone that knows how to weld-do u think a person can learn to weld good enough in 2 yrs to weld on transmission gas lines with 1000 psi?

[redlew5607]

That all depends on the hours you put into it in that amount of time,your knack for it, your will power,your instructor's area of expertise and ability to teach what he/she knows,availability of proper materials to practice on and a good machine. Welding is practice,practice,practice and more practice. There's stick,gas,wire,mig and tig welding.

[psychoschizophrenic]

there's also submerged arc and plasma welding:D

[fraser35]

welding rocks!

[SpankyTheHouseRat]

@fraser35

How do you weld rocks??? XD LOL

[jasp1520]

use a stick welder if you on a budget. A good wire feed from home depot will run $500 you can use flux core wire or to get even cleaner better looking welds attach an argon filled bottle and use mig wire.

[BadDayRaising]

Argons not cheap I use CO2... tho your really not supposed too...

[duplex82]

I loking to make a dump trailer what type of weld should i use?

[BadDayRaising]

SMAW or stick arc welding with 6011's

[omygoodnessiluvit]

this could be bad for your eyes..i just got a lincoln electric welder for working on my car..i have very little experience and this video will surely help

[crazyarcher00]

Been welding for over 20 years, it's just KEWL.

let me tell you how cool, I have been certified by many states all phases of welding, also by the government, I will be lucky to retire , as many of my fellow past co workers have died with horrible illness all related to welding, like lung cancer. Oh how kewl!

[nurvina]

I have been welding for over a year and he pretty much expalned it pretty good

[reffrythewelder]

I am not a beginner,however, I will say this video is great for beginning stick welders!

[vapor8]

sweet >_< I'm a certified mig welder! thanks to job corps.

[AmericanFabricator]

Nice video!

[sangredelic]

I'm totally buying this...

[Anthranox]

Hmm,seems like a good video for anyone intrested of welding,with not too much experience,out of curiousity checked this from view of experienced welder,since i've been working for years now at shipyard as welder.

[hypersupermamado]

many many thanks!!

[duwf16]
