Was this video made in the 60's or something? Where are the welding gloves? Exposed skin for welding? Flammable clothing? Changing the tip with the power connected? A lot of very unsafe practices.

You don't need no stinkin gloves when your hands are leather. Smell that... that's the hair burning. :)

thanks for the info. sure the video is dated but i needed this info and this was perfect. Ill be testing for flux and mig next week and wanted to see the differences in setup. safety is important but not being a crybaby about it is even more important. that old man knows more about welding than anyone leaving comments anyway, so he knows whats up with safety. i bet if he grabbed your arm it would bleed because you weren't allowed to go outside and play. @pff

He definitely died of skin cancer

@mysitesrock says the guy thats prolly been welding for 50 years... because he never learned how to read blueprints :-P

When welding, it appears it it not necessary to button your polyester shirt. Just take that shit in the bare chest like a man.

@personalfunfest When a position is unsupportable and you are plainly wrong, the only recourse is name calling and profanity. I thought I was talking to a man. You are clearly a boy. A boy who attempts to validate himself by anonymous internet chest pounding and acting out. You are free to weld anyway you choose. I give you permission. I know that’s what you wanted.

@prestonkd

You have the right to be a pussy too! Fuck you and YOUR pansy saftey rules! You can PROPERLY weld without gloves you imbecile -- your saftey nonsense has nothing to do with proper welding! moran

[prestonkd]

@personalfunfest Certainly you have the right to injure yourself and violate whatever safety rules you want. What you shouldn’t do is make a video aimed at showing new or inexperienced welders how to properly perform a task, violate basically every safety rule that pertains to welding and tell them that that is the proper way to do it.

@prestonkd

There are the years before men turned into PUSSIES -- I dont weld with gloves and a space suit - me a man not some safety bitch -- as a man you can make your OWN saftey decisions, not some sheeple 'do this do that becasue its the safe way' BS ---

[pentatonic1000]

since this video is 60's,how old this man now??is he still working or seeking for a job?

I am a half assed welder but I did hear her say 2 to 4 cubic feet per hour. Is that right or should it be cubic feet per minute??
