We need more videos from the field you can see how it actually works and learn so much

@@TheWeldLab bubba I would love to see some more tig work and more 6010 roots maybe break down the heat form your sa 200 so we can try it out at our trade schools or wherever we practice

[@Furrierity]

[@fattestjesus]

As a high school welder, your videos always help me out. Thank you!

[@TheWeldLab]

Thanks for watching

[@1ironbelle]

Great videos. Subscribed last month. I did a career change(at 54..) and just got my first welder/fitter helper job. Not a welder yet but your videos are very informative. Thank you.

[@TheWeldLab]

Welcome aboard!..you can learn how to weld asap just need to be on it everyday

Mmmm welding in the field u must b fit at 54 it'll b a tuff rode I do think can b done if in shape but man after 60 then what . Truth be told

​@@mikeundereood1071 Hey man. My goals are my goals. You don't think they are right, you can scroll by. You are the only person who has said anything. Everyone else given me encourage and great ideals on other areas of welding. If you read my post, you would see that I did not say I wanted to field weld. Good day.

I'm a painter, have been doing it since my senior year of high school but after seeing your channel.. It has motivated me to learn welding and attend a school to learn.

[@TheWeldLab]

You can do it!

[@damianpascual97]

Keep up the good work my dream isn’t even to work in welding I just like watching the videos

[@robertjohns7786]

The machine you have is set just fine, next time try to adjust your temp to 52,53 on your remote that setting will be your sweet spot for stainless sch.10. Try it!!

[@TheJsote1988]

I like that you keep it real and simple if need be, saves everybody money and time.

[@TheWeldLab]

Thanks for the feedback !

[@4040pmora]

You should do a video on different types of grinding disk and what their used for and such.

damn man thats crazy lol

Great video as always. Watching from Florida!

[@TheWeldLab]

Thanks for watching 💯

[@mikecousino1721]

You can wet your finger and feel argon flow but your lips are very sensitive, you can really feel the tiniest purge flow with your lips. Also you can feel argon flow out of a gas lens or just the gas flow out of the cup. I always set my flow meter by feel rather by cubic feet per hour to give me a smooth non turbulent purge. Too much argon can be worse than not enough. Also remember argon is heavier than air, always if at all possible introduce the argon below the level of the weld joint and have your vent point at a higher level. Think of it like you are filling the pipe with water, as the pipe fills it displaces the air inside which flows out of the vent opening on top. I worked in aerospace primarily, so some of what I advise may be overkill but the stuff we welded is in the space station right now.

[@TheWeldLab]

Great info brother ! That’s rite !

[@robertjohns7786]

You can also use a sheet metal deburring tool, to also get in the root, to get your grinding shavings out from the backside of the root. I used to use it, to make sure my roots were as I chose to not fail! AS I always say keep'em guessin!!

[@merkwey]

Ay man no lie your videos get me super excited for working, im 18 doing combo starting tig pipe then tig stainless pipe soon , your videos give alot more good info for pipe welders and its so much more personal.

Nice seeing a lot of younger guys doing trades work. I'm 23 and just rigged out in Oct doing gas distribution work. My advise to you is to get into gas distribution cause usually when a company finds a good hand they'll keep you working in the long run.

[@JavierAldoMacedo]

The only alway you fix the pipe not being level is If you roll it. The only thing that can go wrong there is you gonna draw the pipe in or out at the 90. Or you can also draw the flange to the left or right side.

[@VinnieG4]

Be careful for them saw blades. The paint can come off and be on the bevel causing weld porosity.

[@jamesposs]

He’s back!! 😎

[@edwarduresti243]

Nice video bro 💯 Do you usually grind out your tacks when it come to 3oclock & 9 ? & what about on your stick welding do you weld it until u get to your tack or just tie it in?...

How do you purge a pipe with a lot of 90s ts and really long? Besides using bags? I always purge from the lowest part of the pipe but sometimes when im welding at the very top of the line it wont purge right.

[@danieldelagarza5057]

Sick bro, the root on the stainless steel came out nice and flat all the way through.

How do you do a root pass on the pipe

[@dilyantodev3180]

I like your videos, bro, thank you for sharing with us! I have a question. So not long ago I've grinded a bevel like you did in this video (the stainless pipe ). I ended up with a grinding powder inside the pipe, contamination and failed Xray. So , how do you extract that dust out of the pipe, and do you even get any issues with it. I extract the powder with some magnets from time to time, but not working on stainless. I only had low pressure purge, do you think that may caused the problem?

[@danielmendoza7419]
