TIG Welding Aluminum Fabrication - Bike Fork Welding Fixture / Jig - Part 2

[@6061]

All welder settings/fabrication questions are answered on the website: Http://www.6061.com Http://www.6061.com/tigbutton.htm Thanks for watching

[@2000jago]

I sure do love these un-narrated, un-captioned and context-less videos. Awesome.

[@RonCovell]

Aaron - I always love your efficient, fast, and accurate ways of fixturing components for welding. I can't wait to see the next installment!

[@bernardstark]

I subscribed to the 6061 website last year and would highly recommend it for people struggling with tig welding. I had previously been trying to learn to tig weld using all the great videos that are out there, but the results were mostly poor, and I didn’t feel I knew what I was doing, or how to adapt to different joints or metal thicknesses. The 6061 method is carefully structured, and quick and simple to follow. I have run through the method on 3 mm (1/8”) aluminium, and then successively thinner sheet. Now, on real-world joints on real projects, not coupons, many of my welds look really good, with full penetration. Plus it’s clear to me what settings to use and why. Thanks Aaron, you've enabled me to fit learning a difficult skill into my limited spare time. I think you have a great approach. I think your subscription fee is very reasonable, and I recouped that many times over, just by following your fabrication tricks, and not falling into the trap of buying a load of new tools.

Thanks Bernard!

[@VictorMPR]

Your videos are super entertaining and informative. Somehow you manage to do it without speaking at all. I don’t mind people talking, but this way it’s always straight and to the point.

[@palma2289]

Highly underrated channel!

[@ajsironworks3937]

I liked how you sharpened that drill bit. Never seen that before and it’s kinda cool wanna try that.

[@cest7343]

His skill level is intimidating, but his videos are inspiring :D

[@justintasht1067]

I love the attention to detail and skills. 👍

[@jamesa7506]

The most amazing part of all this is, he's also driving his truck/shop downtown Salt Lake city... At the SAME TIME!!!😱

[@anthonysanchez3901]

Love your videos so pleasing to watch

[@viorsa8200]

Buen trabajo maestro, gracias por compartir tanta información y conocimientos, un saludo cordial y por supuesto un gran like desde Narón (Galicia) 👍🤓

[@ДимонСветлый-и1ш]

Nice work! Waiting to continuing

[@glenpiro313]

As usual, outstanding video man! I’ve learned a metric shit ton from you, thank you. Looking forward to the next one

[@angeyman]

Hey dude, I am awaiting your next video lol. I have a video idea if you need one 😏

[@pandawrx3886]

I felt all that frustration when u made that dowel too short 😂😂😂

[@leszekpaterek2389]

11:55 Sprytne imadło. Aż sobie zrobię takie :)

[@wadepatton2433]

Idea: tap bushing with a v-cut base for use on rod or tubing.

[@PowerstrokeBoiz]

Video is awesome…but one thing is lacking…..we need more mini bike action :(

[@JBLewis]

Really interesting to see how, on that drilling op, one flute was making nice chips, and the other was not.

[@nigelsmith7366]

With so much lathe work I thought I was watching ToT🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@nathkrupa3463]

Great build sir thank you so much for sharing sir.

[@ales.1]

Good work man!! 🎉😊

[@garthbutton699]

Always interesting content,thanks for posting🤗😎🤗😎

[@keithjurena9319]

Spending lots of time on jigs..must be mass production in future?

[@sonikempire]

the jig is up, everyone knows now

[@TheUnknownMacha]

Hi there. May i know what is the material of the solid block under the bike frame?

[@taterscustomfabs7946]

Aaron I notice that you always are welding aluminum on a aluminum plate on your welding table. Is that a recommendation or is that just by habit?

[@EZCarnivore]

I had to do a double-take when I noticed the gloves were off when filing on the lathe lol, almost feel like I saw something I shouldn't have...

[@larrymashburn7789]

I wondered how light an aluminum strider would be. I guess we are going to find out.

[@rainmaker3700]

Makes me wish I had a lathe and tig welder in my garage. :(....

[@veljo10z]

what's that stuff you spray when drilling? great vids keep up the good work.👍

[@motoz3939]

WD40 likely. Kerosene works too but it’s kerosene and people get worried when you start spraying it everywhere

[@dunbarautomotive]

wd40 I think

[@Sentimental_Steve]

why kind of lathe are you using?

[@shanewoodard1632]

I know its a lame question but what frequency do you use? Love your videos!

[@jf7393]

Judging by the sound he’s somewhere between 60 and 80hz

[@codys_fab]

Aaron, did you get a new lathe?

[@6061]

Yes, but this lathe is the same one I've been using for 15 years now. I have a bigger CNC one that I use from time to time too.

[@aarond4628]

Man I wish I watched this before I made my janky bars

[@U.F.O.Technology]

6:51 super.

[@monochrome2363]

Yo ma man. I noticed a couple of your videos were reposted on facebook without any credit to you. I dont know if you gave them permission or something but those reposted videos were full of misinformations. ✌🏻

[@6061]

Thanks, any of my videos you see other than here on my KZbin channel have been stolen. Please report them and/or send me the links.

[@6061]

Do you have links you can send me? Thanks

[@monochrome2363]

@@6061 It's weird cuz I can't seem to find them anymore. I left comments on those videos saying who's the real owner and it should pop up in my recent activity log. But i can't seem to find anything. I guess they were deleted as i reported every post that i found. I'll be sure to inform you in the future if i come across those videos again.

[@6061]

Thanks!

[@TheOneAndOnlySame]

Hey lefty bro Also pacific art guy is a lefty. It's of no importance really, but we are few so...

[@andyb7754]

Interesting build but it would be nice it you explained what your doing and why (your not a mute) instead of hitting your helmet when you screw up. Thank you for the work in progress video instead of the other non-essential stuff. Yes, I subscribe to watch your videos to try and learn.

[@6061]

Feel free to rewind or ask questions if something isn't clear.

[@wertza720]

90% of the time no idea what you're doing and kinda losing interest :/
