Get you throat protector ((Tig welding)

Do you have an link to the t3 turbo flange? I can’t find it

Looks like you pushed that 7018? Instead of dragging or am I just tripping

That looks good!

The algorithm presented your vid, thanks Algo..what material is your table top? It's grounding through that AND a cast iron vice?

Really appreciate this, great video. 1.5 years later, have your thoughts changed, e.g. how did that champion generator hold up, or were there other issues?

So I found out what that noise is 4:00. Had the same issue on my setup. Turns out that the idle air control valve runs on 500hz instead of 300hz which is the stock setting on the haltech. Idk if you have fixed that yet but, fyi for those who were wondering.

Nice i run a Yeswelder 135 fluxcore/stick, Titanium 125, Hone stick 185 dual voltage, Lincoln FC90 ,and Guozhi 200 dual voltage off a Wen 4000/3500watt inverter generator off the 30amp TT-30 plug outlet kicking out 3600 watts 🧑‍🏭

Nice ,i

inventors is that to hard to invent a battery bank to be conected to electricity all the time when we are using the battery bank to weld, meanwhile we weld, so we never be out of charge and the welding machine will be in operation all day!

How many watts do you need to run 200 amps tho?

I just burnt out the windings of a 5 kw Diesel generator after replacing the AVR twice, running 2.5 stick welds. Yes you can weld from underpowered generators but you will destroy them, be left with no power half way through a job and spend more money in tne long term replacing all the equipment.

Most coat effective? It absolutely is not. An automotive alternator and a lawnmower engine. $150 or less, depending on your skill at finding and scavenging.

Im kinda getting obsessed with an order of these plugs. They make plugs and stud caps both. Im thinking a set up to 5" for exh and down to 1/4" size. Jist to mask blocks and parts before painting. How awesome would it be to have bags of them to jam in bolt holes you have already cleaned just to protect them from crud

D16y7 make one for me please

Thats what i did for a back up rig for the help . Brand new 10,000 watt champion generator. Bought a multi processor esab 210 emp . 210 is junk . Its broke twice in 30 hours . So i bought a miller 215 multi process . NO problems ! Ive got 4 esabs now ther all junk ! Esab 141i had smoke just roll out of it at 20 hours . Strickly used in the shop . The esab 210 emp has broke twice now with less than 30 hours. The 215 rebel is stuck in mig mode only . The 285 esab glitches . My 10,000 watt champion actually runs the rebel better than my 8000 dollar trail blazer ! Be safe !

Did you seal them afterwards? How do you prevent water seeping in when it's raining?

Ran my dynasty 300dx off of an older non inverter generator. Smooth as could be. No issues.

I do mobile welding I do not have deep pockets with that said I do have a new engine drive I also worked my 40 a week job to pay for the truck welder and everything else b4 going on my own

Best "Budget" - I doubt spending 10k would get you any better - method is to go buy 2 real cheap machines. First is an MMA (stick) machine off Yeswelder. That will run you less than 100 dollars. It will outweld machines that cost 10 times as much, easily. It will also run off any piddly electrical supply - a crappo generator or off a long extension lead on 220V. That thing will weld all day & won't blink - it's also smooth as silk. 2nd, go buy a cheap flux-core "mig" machine - I personally like Hitbox for those & they are brilliant little machines. They too will run off absolutely piddly electrical supplies - a small generator or a long lead. I used run Mosa towed diesel welders - blink & you'd spent 10k plus on one. I also ran honda 13hp petrol welders & 5hp Mosa Magikwelds - neither option leaves much change out of 1500 to 2000. I can say hand on heart that if I had been able to buy a Yeswelder mma machine back then, I would have bought nothing else - I would have run one off a lead or a cheap genny & it would have welded EVERYTHING I needed to weld. For C.A 300 dollars for the 2 machines, you can go weld pretty much anything in the normal run of things & if the job is up high or in a pita spot, they weigh absolutely nothing. I have lugged heavy machines into position - I know which I prefer - tiny & light. I can confidently say both will run off 100m extension cords - 2 50m leads connected - so if you have power-outlet within 100m, you're set. Add in a 60 dollar Vires welding helmet (thank me for the tip later), some consumables, a couple of decent angle grinders and the usual small tools everyone needs & you're set. If you want to get real fancy, buy a Parkside plasma cutter that will cost you 150. Mod that so it becomes a pilot-arc machine (takes 30 seconds) and you now have another very very cheap but powerful tool in your cheapo arsenal. It has its own built in compressor, so you don't even need to go buy one of those. Bang - you're a weapon ready to weld/cut/fab ahead, for less than 1000 all in.

Why my Lincoln tig 200 won’t go more than 125 upper? With same equipment as yours

Your sharp enough to flick your Slag on the rod but your pushing 7018.. 😮

Cool

👍🏻👍🏻

Think a yeswelder 250 pro would run off this good ? I was thinking about buying this kind on generator for side work.

damn this is such a good idea

Post up at a racetrack, customers will find you

What are the ect after this? On a hot day after hitting boost a few times or going up hill under boost? Great video

We have a Ranger 225 and it works. I prefer the preditor generator and omnipro 220. The omnipro pushes around 5-7lb of .035 a day. I can load the preditor and omnipro buy myself. The Ranger needs a hoist or it's tied to a vehicle for the whole project.

I know this is a old video but I am finally going to pull the trigger on a bender. What dye would you recommend? A 1.5” round tube dye?

You made measuring the port and branch spacing way too hard. On the flange - measure left side of one hole #2 to left side of hole #3. This is your centre to centre spacing. Put the Tees together and measure their joint face spacing. Halve the extra and cut it from one side of each Tee. The same measurements probably work for the cylinders #1 and #4 but check anyway.

you: "Do Your Own Research" me: You are my research.

The lines are a bit too low. In a straight line, you’re fine but going in and out of driveways, I’d be really nervous. Thought you had to delete the mechanical pump. Great video and great idea mounting the rad over there

So how are the hood dampers holding up. Does the hood shut flush?

I bought an A-ipower 8000 generator, tomorrow I will go and pick it up from the warehouse, it is needed for an alternative power supply for the welding workshop, since there is a war in my country. Problems with the power supply, I think the generator will help me shake in formation, the price is terrible, $3,000, there are no other options. Thank you for your video, it was useful

Can you give us an update on the generator running the welder?

I started with a predator 6500 and my dads 95 f150 flareside and a lincoln mp31 multi process and big bottles and learned to weld on the go doing small mobile jobs and lost everything multiple times and now I got a full rig with a weldanpower 225 in a 2nd gen ram 1500 and I got less than 2500$ in my fully equipped rig, the secret? Be a highly motivated young guy working hard to make his dreams come true and people literally give you things or great deals

Both hands on the wheel pick a gear and stick there. You lost so much time one handing it.

Nice start. Next Step Take an electric trades course. For Garage electric. Save the Gen for your truck. Get a DC Transformer welder for said truck they out perform inverter welders on stick. Leave that nice Lincon in the garage. Leave the welder and the genny on the truck chained to bed. Build slow and don't give up. From an Old guy Old ways! 😊

I ran a very similar setup for about 2 years I did endup burnng out a generator by overloading it with a Hobart mig setup , but the inverter welders can compensate , definitely a good mobile setup and uses way less gas than an engine drive , my miller bobcat goes through a tank a day! thanks for the great video!

Very nice 👍

Literally looking at one of these!!!

Great video!

Is that where the money is? Mobile?

Hell yeah new video!

I see you use a band saw to cut your metal. What band saw do you reccomend???

What did you use for triggers have problem with home count. Thanks for video. I have the same ecu just haven’t started

Salesman alert lol...super clean white walls...dressed for church and can't afford a ten dollar blind...

Best not to place the ring gaps on the thrust side of the piston.

Nice bro
