hi mate, I started making stainless exhaust parts like headers, manifolds, etc. My welds usually have colour on them, gold, sometimes even blue. they look nice, do you think theres any benefit to cleaning exhaust stuff like this? Ive found when the exhaust gets used and the stainless discolours, you can usually see a band where the heat affected zone was, not sure if this would help with that

I have never used bristle brushes before. I dont do any sanitary but do a lot of highly finished stainless and brass for high end retail displays. I wonder how these would hold up as a the first few steps towards a number 4 brushed finish on irregular shaped parts. I am going to order a few. Thanks

What’s the deduct for 1/4 air tubing bending a 90 or is there?

I loved this video because I was a sanitary welder for 5 years. I'm a maintenance mechanic now because that's where the money is but I love this type of work. Once in a while the company I worked for would contract two guys, a fitter and a welder. And they made four times what I was making. I'd like to know how to get that gig.

You should make some tacking bands that will hold the bend onto the tube while you tack. And also when you tack have your machine set to about 90amps and on 2t setting and fast tack that's how you tack dairy tube bud

Very informative! I found all of the info in Audel’s Millwrights & Mechanics Guide, but it was helpful to see actual examples.

Just saying appreciate this kind of info

I guess mobile tig welding you only use pulse ?

A walking the cup vs free hand video would be nice

How did the magnet compare on the Sola?

Absolutely, love your craft!! WWG1WGA 🇺🇸 MACHINIST FOR TRUMP 🇺🇸

Bit of a random question, but how would you go about welding Tri-Clamp Flanges into something that's not a tube? Mainly something like a large boil kettle, would you just be taping off the large opening and going about business as usual, pretending the kettle is a giant tube? Secondly, are there any special or different techniques for sanitary welding copper? Appreciate the videos!

Even as a British pipefitter this is a great video as our pipe and fittings are measured in imperial

Just found your channel and you seem to know your shit. I'm in. Steel biz 45 plus years but tig is new to me, looking as a retirement hobby, artsy fartsy garden shit, fountains, whatevers.

The HF bender for 10 bucks just flattens it

Are you getting power off a generator out in the field? Are these capable off of 110 if needed in a pinch?

Love your videos man, keep it up 🤘🏼

I just purchased some 316 Sch 40 stainless steel pipe for new davits on my sailboat. I found a good price from Onlinemetals, but the pipe finish is terrible and needs some attention. I was wondering what the best way to clean-up the pipe and found your channel. Perfect timing. I'll order a few of the suggested products to clean and brighten up the pipe.

Great video!

Great video can you please include mm conversation on your video even just subtitles every time you mention numbers in inches some countries in the world doesn’t understand inches. 😢😢😢

what is wonder gel

But dragging your file clears chips… damned if you do damned if you don’t. Or use chalk on your file. It helps keep gummy stuff like aluminum and stainless

1/4”스테인리스 파이프도 다뤄주시면 안될까요?

European pipe design engineer here, I basically use CAD to make plans and measurements of all these offset distances so our fitters don't have to bother with it. I only have one question: If you use a calculator, how do you convert the base 10 result fractions into base 2, 4, 8 or 16? That seems really bothersome to me, as a metric system enjoyer.

Do a video how you connect your tig torches together for longer leads

Need to post more drew

I’m always been fascinated by piping and pipe fitting but never understood any about it but your videos make it so easy that a caveman could do it 😅

Do you ever use that brown gravy, that Ox-Out? Im curious how it compares to your "death sauce".

Bon Boulo 😆😆👍👍

you're awesome

Nice Teaching.. more practical needed, and be little bit slow

great vid, thank you for making - greetings from Denmark

Awesome video. I remember a similar video you did on Instagram. We do pretty similar cleaning at work. One thing I’d like to try is one of those pasivation electric machines they seem handy.

Great info, thanks! I'm currently teaching myself TIG for the soul purpose of building my own exhaust and headers and this is going to help me get the finish I'm looking for.

Thank man. Keep the sanitary stainless videos coming. Just bought some new purge plugs yesterday 👍🤙🤟

When does multiplying by 1.5 stop working. I guess my question is does is work for all schedule pipe? Or sanitary?

Badass video man. At what point does multiplying by 1.5 not work regarding take off? Obviously as you thickness increases sched 40 to 80 you id changes so it would still work. But will it still work for small schedule pipe such as 10 or sanitary fittings?

As a Canadian I laughed at the grams per inch chart. We're technically metric but use a sometimes confusing combination of both. Height and weight are imperial but we're clueless as to what that is in metric even though we understand what a kilometre is perfectly well. So on and so on.

Can you covert this to metric?

Seen this video was posted 10 month's ago. Looked up but not much to be found and no link to purchase anywhere yet. Maybe sometime later.

Awesome video mate. Very edumacational. Apart from the nonsense fractional measurements! Ha ha. As an Englishman now living in Australia I haven't seen imperial measurements for a while.

First time using one of these, I had a panic attack when you started doing math equations

I wish you’d show where the marks line up with the 45° bends.

Wow amazing! Now that you’ve said it into detail could we get a hands on video of you building the spool piece and fitting and welding it out to understand it better for others great work tho
