Testing The Yeswelder Dp200 Welder: Perfect For Small Engine Repair Shops!

[@WJCTechyman]

That's the nicest interface I have ever seen on a welder. I never thought I would see a welder that looks like it could run iPadOS/iOS or Android. It's funny but makes things easier.

[@REDBIRD-95]

I purchased a 10lb spool of Yeswelder .030" flux core wire for my MIG welder from Amazon awhile back. It's better wire than Lincoln for much, much less. Definitely a high quality company.

[@gary-e4c]

just a tip donyboy take a piece of foam rubber and run the wire through it when it comes off the spool and it will help clean the wire and save the liner. another thing when welding with a stick dc neg. will cause porosity.

[@donyboy73]

Thanks for the tips.

[@waynestefinashen239]

A very diverse welding unit that does everything you need for a small engine repair shop. Based on your video it appears it can do a lot more, great review Don.

[@jeffstoodley6155]

That's a impressive little welder!

[@davidedwards1855]

Well Dony, I finally took the plunge and ordered a welder after watching your video.

[@donyboy73]

What did you get?

[@davidedwards1855]

I placed a deposit on the yeswelder dp200, the one you reviewed. It goes “live” tomorrow. I guess that means that’s when they start selling it to the general public, and when I’ll have to fork over the rest of the money 😁

[@donyboy73]

@@davidedwards1855 It's a lot of welder for the price! I just welded a deck with it yesterday.

[@davidedwards1855]

Well, I have a deck or two that need some patching so maybe I’ll finally get to them! I have very little welding experience but I think the welder at work will be happy that I won’t be bringing him all my little jobs.

[@rogercarrico4975]

Great review! A very impressive welder! Looks much better than the typical Chinese junk

[@donyboy73]

This one is definitely a few steps above!

[@oakiewoodsman]

Looks like a nice intuitive interface. Great job

[@imyselfandmex]

3:40 look how slow it responds to the inputs!

[@liljoeii6091]

Awesome welder that was pretty good demonstration that you did there thank you for the video

[@putteslaintxtbks5166]

In the last year, I watched alot of welder reviews and the Yeswelder looked to be at the top of inexpensive welders. I see that has the pulse setting. Many of the pro welders said that was a game changer. Plus, it sounds nicer too. I think it was last year, some welding organization, the Yes welder won 1st place for best.

[@WJCTechyman]

Wow, that's cool. I guess Don and your sources tend to agree then. I don't know much about welding, just a bit more about its relative, soldering. And when it comes to soldering, I have a variety of equipment ranging from a 260 W max Weller beast soldering gun down to my 25 W Weller and no name soldering irons as well as owning for the first 20 years of soldering, a Chinese desoldering gun (think variable speed iron matched with a small diaphragm pump and chamber that looks akin to the average Weller soldering gun with variable heat). I used both the 25 W and desoldering gun to reflow some of the solder in the gauge cluster of my brother's CR-V for him.

[@davidcoudriet8439]

Yeswelder is coming on strong

[@marcmyers1465]

Thanks Don. Great Review ? 😃👍 T his one kinda goes to the top of my list, because of it's overall flexibility, display, and build quality. I just can't afford a New Lincoln. 😕 Besides, I Still want that Plasma Cutter ! 😂 LOL.

[@catfishstalkeroutdoorswith530]

Awesome unit

[@EzRay11]

Cheers Don. Looks like an awesome machine. $399 US equals $544 Canadian at today’s exchange rate. Add the 13% tax in Ontario and you’re at $616. Just in case any Canadians are wondering.

[@jefflyon100]

I'm really liking the metal wire feed drive setup, even if it probably is a pot metal of some type. Many other brands use plastic and that's not acceptable. I'd love to see a lot more plain welding on 1/4" to 3/8" stock. Almost all these review videos show off fancy settings not needed 75 % or more of the time your using it. The machine is fully manual adjustable, both wire speed and amperage can be dialed in !

[@knighthawk86855]

Cool machine.... It's on pre-order as of same date 8/24

[@nephtalilucero8084]

How does ot compare the the yes welder 250 pro? Thanks

[@aslerunarborgersen5175]

That was a very good machine for a nice price. Too bad it isn't available here in Norway.

[@philliphall5198]

Would like to have it but my stick is really all I need 😮

[@georgemartinez1720]

Used a AC Buzz Box were Use to work once they found out I was studying Welding . Man weld this I need that welded And was not my Job I was hired for I used to order 1/16 6o13 Electrodes from Sears because they wanted me to Weld Thin Galvanized pipe to Schedule 80 Steel Pipe Nipple Sear only I knew who carried That small of 6013 Rod No Amazon then

[@alang.4570]

Another great welder machine video/demo review. I am curious, though, as to why you didn't put a weld on the inside of the snowblower auger, too. Only the outside.

[@michaelsa892]

Is this a a/c or d/c welder?

[@akjeff64]

There's a software update you can do that gives you the 75-25 gas setting

[@devinmurphy5901]

Do you know if you are able to control wire speed and amperage separately or are they dependent on each other?

[@jonyovanno4145]

Are consumables easily accessible???

[@donyboy73]

Yes easily accessible and cheap on Amazon

[@TODinWY]

Can it do Al ?

[@coltonware5627]

Now, out of curiosity, what is under the advanced setting in the bottom right? Would that allow you more flexibility/control over what the machines auto settings are?

[@jp_davis]

What amp circuit are you running it off of? I need to install a 240v outlet in my garage for this.

[@GrantsDad]

So how does it compare to the ARCCAPTAIN MIG200 considering you have used and reviewed both?

[@donyboy73]

Very comparable, but the Yeswelder has much better cables and seems of better quality. I find that the ArcCaptain does stick welding more smoothly.

[@Jack-ox9iz]

I am so excited to get this.

[@DavidBergman1776]

Hey Don! Love the video, whenever I need a welder this will be at the top of the list for sure! On another note, you made a video a while back on a Craftsman lawn tractor that was surging. I can't for the life of me find the video and I really need to find it as my tractor has the same issue. Do you have a link for a video like that? Thanks in advance

[@MumPyro]

How did you get one of these if they are still on Pre-order and waiting for a kickstarter campaign? I signed up because it seems like a good deal but I'd like to know the wait time to actually purchase.

[@georgemartinez1720]

I remember doing a Temp Job Were they made Off Riad Heavy Equipment They had me Doubg Flux Core welding God it Burn up my Sleeves in Seconds I had to wear a hear Shield Over my Fore arm

[@michaelcountryman9130]

Looks like you need a bigger shop with all the welders that you have

[@eyyubsahin7319]

I’m welder from france and I want to buy this this welder where can I found it please, thank you

[@donyboy73]

check on their website or Amazon yeswelder.com/

[@thyubernoob]

For thicker steel it helps if you bevel the metal for better penetration.

[@donyboy73]

Thanks

[@ricardosantana5424]

That’s what I thought. Bevel each side like a V shape and you get better deposition. More metal on because of the greater surface created by the bevel.

[@cornbinder]

Looks like this is the one...

[@soctnights]

Beginning to think of a welder like a firearm, better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Price looks affordable.

[@marcmyers1465]

For Small Engine and Equipment Repair it's almost impossible to get by without one... 🤷🏼‍♂️ I grew up on a farm couldn't go a week without firing up the welder... 😂

[@knighthawk86855]

399.99 American, as of 8/24.

[@philliphall5198]

It’s a great buy for the price ❤

[@marcmyers1465]

That's allot of features for $399.99... 😯 Really nice display & gun ! 😉👍

[@EzRay11]

That’s $616 Canadian including 13% tax, in Ontario if anybody is wondering.

[@RockLander818]

That’s awesome. Paid 550.00 for my YW MIG-250 Pro. Happy with that machine so this one looks awesome. Might upgrade…. Worried about that screen getting damaged or quit working one day though.

[@mikey_mike]

I just got mine and I can't use 90% of the options. It won't let me choose. It's like it's self limiting what I can pick. It's on 220v. This thinkg might be getting sent back.

[@thomaswakefield6889]

Wow, I'm actually surprised you tried welding the thicker metal without actually beveling them for better weld through penetration. I mean, no real experienced welder would try to weld 1/4" or greater steel plates without at least putting 45° angles on the section that is going to be welded together.

[@georgemartinez1720]

Tog welding Aluminum is Tricky Should take a Welding Class And get some practice

[@marcmyers1465]

I'm just signing up for a couple more classes, and I'm 64 ! 🤷🏼‍♂️ No good reason to stop learning. 😉

[@jefflyon100]

I don't understand why your adjusting wire size to weld thicker material. Forget the auto settings and set your amps and wire feed manually, left and right knobs are there for that purpose!
