  • DUDE i wanna LEARN TO WELD LIKE THIS!! UR GREAT!!!

  • Great video, do you know if they sell Everlast welders in the u.k? Or if they ever will sell them here? I want one. Thanks for the upload, best welding video's on u-tube.

  • Great video man,i love your videos.

  • I watched the vid over again and answered my own question I asked previously. You used DC+.... I don't know how I missed that the first time. Maybe it's because I watch the videos on a small iPhone... Hard to hear sometimes! Great video!!!!!

  • very helpful. I am going to be making a grinder stand soon, and the tacking tips will help a lot.

  • Hi there, you should be a teacher at a welding school! Great welding! Happy holidays!!!

  • Jody, first i must say i bought one of your shirts when they first came out. I had so many comments from the aircraft mechanics at work when i wear it. I hope they bought some to support your enterprise. You're a true educational resource!!! About the vid: okay, you're using 7018. Did you use AC or DC rev? Also, did you preheat the rods by chance? Thank you.

  • Great video, my friend. Welding can be a fun thing to do when you are not in production.

  • 1 person should not have watched this vid

    Great website and vids, I'm sure you have helped many beginners. Cheers.

  • 8:23 Damn! What a nice looking weld.

  • Jody I've be practicing Stick Welding but still not quite their yet. I'm pretty good with the Tig but not stick. When arc welding, do you keep the rod in the molten metal or just above it? If it's above, what is the best way to regulate the distance and keep it constant? I just want to get better with arc as it is another skill I'd like to master.

  • very cool, i'm currently taking a few welding classes, when i'm there i'll ask the teacher for help, if his advice doesn't work, i watch your videos and surprise the teacher the next day!

    thanks!

  • Thanks as always Jody! Great video.

    (non-ETOPS)

  • 1/8" rod

  • Could you please demonstrate an effective technique for 6010 uphill aswell as a 1F 6010 butt weld?

  • what brand of gloves would you recommend for welding and fitting, the gloves they sell at my job suck, the stitching sucks too

  • Jody- what a great video, thanks man.

  • Dear Sir, I just want you to know you speak and teach the lesson so well that when I click on your videos I end up watching them from beginning to end with full attention. Your an excellent teacher is what I am saying, thankyou sir.

  • any body know how old you have to be to be AWS certified

  • ivegot one question. why does eeryone stress clean metal so much? ive run welds through oil before and still passed the destructive test

  • Added this to my favorites because of the showing how to "square" the tubing against the flange, really beats strying to cut it off square

  • Jody I am not a stick welder at all so could you explain what puddle details we should be looking at to run a good bead? Sorry if this is basic stick welding 101.

  • @RobRichmondRPG there are all kinds of things to watch for, but the main thing is arc length. thats the distance between the tip of the rod and the molten puddle. keep it short. the rod is getting shorter as it burns so the tendency is for the arc to always be getting longer. if you keep it tight an set the amperage hot enough that it wont stick with a tight arc, you are halfway home. the puddle should have an oval shape and look the same for the whole bead.. rod angle and speed also matter

  • Really enjoy your videos. Its also nice to see all the state-of-the-art equipment. It would be nice to see what you could do with the POS equipment I have to work with.

  • i just received I tig finger works awsome. Thanks for taking the time to make videos with your help i have been geting some welding jobs in-house at the plant I work making the boss very happy and getting plenty of overtime for myself.Keep up the good work.

  • Great video,my welding instructor showed us this video in class last night..

  • wow great demo. didnt know it moved that much. thanks

  • what kinda electrode did you use for this job?

  • @citydriver 1/8" 7018

  • Hey, I been welding on and off for 40 years and i got to tell you, I learn something new in just about every single one of your videos ,its also good to see the new technology as well as the old tricks , done by someone who knows his stuff and above all is good at explaining , and knows how to get the good videoshots too

    Keep up the great work and thanks

  • I like the finger to thumb steady technique.

    Once the base is tacked, does it matter in which order you then run the rest of the weld beads?

    Oh, and I really enjoy your videos BTW. Not only do you know your stuff, but you can explain it well. Just wish you worked in metric ;-)

  • Great closeups of the puddle! Good info on the tacking locations and why. How are the Everlast welding machines holding up? Do you like their performance?

    Are you on facebook?

  • Do you use an auto darkening mask?

  • nice beads man!

  • outstanding, you really know your stuff

  • You make this stuff look so easy!

    another great video, thanks very much

  • Great to see more stick welding! Nice shots of the puddle too. How much drag angle are you using?

  • @Richardsmusic , I am using a lot more drag angle than I need. You cant see it, but there is a camera in my way.

    normally, I wouldn't use that much angle, but it goes to show how forgiving stick welding can be.

  • @weldingtipsandtricks Thanks. Great tip on getting the post straight.

  • I just bought a PowerArc 200. I  love stick welding.

  • why can stick welding weld over rust and other contamination without porosity while mig can't ?

    is it just because of the special flux on stick welding rods ?

    can flux core mig weld on crap like that as good as stick welding ?

  • @shodanxx , Its the flux. Flux core mig does not have as much flux and might work ok but not as good as stick.

    At least thats my take on it.

  • Top tips. Thanks Jody.

  • yes! welding for the masses...

  • Great info as always Jody...thats going to help me a lot. Thanks!

  • Fantastic

  • thank you , that helped me a lot cause I can never (NEVER) get my tubing level. Either I pull too much or not enough but oh well, practice practice practice...

  • looks good!

  • thanks for the tips.
