Tried the 90 degree angle instead of the 45 and it helped fix my weave. Severely reduced my undercut to almost non-existent. Thanks!

If you're having trouble with your work angle/weave dont be afraid to grab out further on the rod itself and guide it kind of like a pen.

@@daltronium_4781 it’s generally for people with less experience that haven’t developed that muscle memory yet but even after 16 years of welding I still find it helpful in awkward positions, especially when arc marks alone will result in a bust. I’m of the mindset that if it is helpful to you and gives you consistent finished product then it’s an asset not a crutch or lack or skill or ability. I say that because we all know that welder that thinks he knows everything and everyone else with different tactics is below him. Very annoying. Do whatever makes you better!

Jody, I cant even begin to tell you how much your videos have helped me on my journey into the world of welding. I have been able to make my booth time at school much more valuable by studying your techniques and tips and then going into the booth with a game-plan. I learn more from your arc shots and commentary than I ever could in a classroom or trying to observe my instructor over his shoulder. I truly appreciate the effort and detail you put into every video. If there was a Mount Rushmore of welding instructors I think you would be on there with Steve Bleile. Thanks, Eddie

Blaze 1UP I always thought over head was as easy as flat welds. Keep the rod tight and weld the same as if it’s flat. Vertical on the other hand (especially vertical but joints) was the most difficult weld for me to learn. It took several years. But I’m self taught on the job. And 15 years later, videos like this are more valuable than gold to me. 👍

I’m using 7018ac with my old buzz box and I sure find the vertical welding tough. If I go above 90amps it doesn’t matter how I move the rod, the puddle drips down. At 90 amps I can make it look half decent but when I start I have to long arc for a while before I have enough heat. This is with 1/8” rod. Oh well, guess I need more practice. All your videos are awesome. I can tell you have a passion for welding, you’re darn good.

That technique in the second root pass of pausing left and right and and coming up the bevel was taught to me by an old-timer as 'drawing the edges'. It lets you get a lot more metal deposited in the wider section in one pass and spread the heat out a bit. I don't know if it's a common expression, I haven't seen it anywhere since.. Quick tip for anyone learning to weld: try learning with both hands - it will make you much more versatile!

I did X-Ray on submarines for years with almost a 0 rejection rate. Mostly using 11018 and 8018 in every position imaginable. That's how my slag always came off AND I seldom removed the slag before tieing into the previous bead. Most times the restart would pop the slag off. 40 pounds a night of 1/8 rod and that was with an interpass temp requirement of 200-300 degrees. Moved onto horizontal (and flat) subarc and even some experimental hand held subarc. 100 pounds USA not unusual but again temp requirements and engineering inspections kept deposition rate low.

Jody, I do not understand how your weld puddle doesn't drip out when you weld as methodically as you do (say, at 6:50 in the video). Whenever I slow down to anywhere near this speed when weaving on vertical up 3g, the metal heats up and within a couple inches the whole thing is a big mess. Plus, I've gouged out ahead of the puddle something fierce. I've turned the amps anywhere from 85 to 110 and it doesn't seem to make a huge difference (maybe just delaying the drip if I turn down the amps). One difference is that I've been just practicing on 1/4 mild steel coupons, so perhaps they heat up a bit faster. I'd be very grateful if you could give me a tip or trick or two! Darren

Z bead was what I was taught for stick and mig, and tested (bend test on flat (horizontal), overhead and vertical) for my certification back in 1995. I am not a professional, took welding in High School and was tested and passed certification. I only use it when I need to fix something around the property. Have they changed it to require a straight bead for vertical now? I was taught that was wrong and it would fail you during certification. Also, aren't the amps determined by the size of the rod?

In Canada we have to do a fillet pass on each side of plate for first passes and also have to stop and start where inspector marks the area of choice . Definitely will make it harder to get slag or lack of fusion in the middle of the first passes . The root pass with a weave would make it a better test to do . Thought it was the same . Good video anyway . Thanks

Man i dont know how you go straight in without any angle up. Thought i had a decent grasp on vertical 7018 but i failed visual :/ too high of a bead. Not sure what i did wrong. Weld lead at work said i could grind it below flush and retry the cap but that got me thinking underneath might not be good either. And how do you keep the puddle from rolling up and dripping wicked bad? I was running 90amps 3/32 7018 moving somewhat fast or the weld would ball up real bad and quick. Any tips from anyones appreciated.

Hey Jodi, I like the video, it cleared up some problems I've been having. My instructor has moved me from 1/8" 6010 to 7018 and threw me straight into vertical up. He says my beads look fine, the only problem is my start and stops. I can't seem to grasp how to get a seamless joining of two beads. My instructor told me to strike an inch or two above my previous bead and quickly drag down then loop around the puddle of the last bead and hold for one second. I keep finding myself with a globular start. Any tips on how to get a consistent bead with multiple starts and stops? I'd like to hear what you have to say. Andrew

Do you have any videos on welding dirty/rusty materials? Alot of the stuff i encounter at work (coal facility) is in rough shape, but i always try to grind away what i can before i start. Also, the backup plate looks like it helps keep the puddle from running off where it don't belong. Any tips without a backing plate?

Great videos. I use 1962 sa200. I can run tiny 6010 (1/32"?) to 1/8" in third gear, just moving fine adjust from about 25-85. But lately, been shifting to second for uphill welds. Seems to not fall out ( less "dig"?) so bad. Thoughts? Preferably without childish name calling but will endure some. Thanks

Another quality video from Jodie. What'd you recommend for a welder amp range Max in a welder to look for? My tig maximum is 130 DC in stick mode and find it cold sometimes. Does Max of 185 DC in tig why the big difference? Should I buy a dedicated stick machine ?

Does 30, 35' of #2-0 orange ultra flex (34 gage strands of copper wire in bundle vs. 30 gage) coupled up with 10-15' of #2 orange ultra flex compared with 10-15' of #4 make any difference with how the rod will burn?

1.)When i set the machine at120 amps, i end up ending with a bulge at the ending of my plate. 2.) Why ans when do you use the arc control?? Thanks to the intelligent response...

Your video just came up to my suggested videos to watch and love it. I will be taking a certification test later this year and will be watching all your videos thank you. My quest is do you keep your amperage at 120 on all the passes or do you change your amperage only on your cover to 110? And what is a good amperage for the 3/32 rod if i use that for the test?

Hi Jody. You mentioned that the vertical test and the overhead test pretty much come hand in hand. Could you please make another in-depth video on overhead groove welds with 7018? If you have the time that is. Thanks!

Hello, I regularly watch again that serie, and it shows me different things along with my personal 3 months progress on stick welding now.++sudden better laying of beads when I used 120A, not 100 110 as I did before, but may be with a thinner metal lower amperage will be useful. I also did regulate dig to 10% as I do not understand well what effect it provide. Just a polarity question : first pass DCEN is it mostly used (by some) for open root, just to have a more manageable arc ? no value for that flat bottom surface ? Thanks

I'm starting to weld and this Grove 3g is giving me trouble, just wondering, when you're doing multiple beads where do you start the next? do you place the next rod on the toe of the previous bead? the center of the new rod on the toe?

Ma favourite all arounds. 7018 3.2 mm. Love them. Nothing easier to weld with. Nothing better.

Jody can you answer this question? I like to set my heat so the flux curls off like yours just did .But what exactly makes this happen? I have yet to have someone answer this for me.thank for your time U.A. 537

Are you changing your heat at all between passes? Or are you consistently running the same amperage?

Well one thing that confuses me is your settings...when I use 110 Amps with a 3mm rod it's always too hot and droops down. Yet my technique is similar. I get good results going 75 Amps with 2.5 red but with 3.2 it's always too varying. This is with old caddys and new. Any tips?

i cant seem to find any videos that show a proper "weave" with 7018s. could you possibly make a video? the weave is very frustrating.

Love your videos Jody. I've watched every one of them from the time I started welding a few years ago. One thing I learned the hard way that you stated in this video was leave enough room for your next bead(s). If you leave enough room, you definitely will have no trouble burning out any slag if there were to be any. I probably bent six plates and failed before realizing that. Thanks for your videos and keep up the great work!
