So neat with such a not neat tool. Goes for all your work really. You can tell a quality welder when every job they leave finished could be metal artwork. You could maybe experiment with metal sculpture in your off time. You have the tools and skillsets in buckets, it would only be your imagination limiting what you could create.

Deep respect of what you do. I never knew with an arc rod you could blow out the slag like that. That was the way to go. When I first saw how it was cracked and patched I was wonder how the heck your going to do that since you did not have much room in there to V that out. Seriously you do real nice work! I learned arc welding in high school and all we had was AC with some powder coated rods then we got a DC welder and some I think 6018 rods. Wow it was so nice to learn on bad ac rods that would just stick all the time. Again much respect in those working conditions and what you did there is impressive.

Something I would have done in preparation for working under there would be to wrap something around the hydraulic cylinder to make sure that no spatter, or a stray arc, wrecks the seal on the cylinder. I, like others, am interested in a little information on your equipment, welder compressor, etc., even which gouger you have, and why you don't use an auto darkening helmet.

@@jamesfranks545 I do a lot of side work, but I can only do that quality of work on my best day, in a non restricted vertical or overhead position, but looking at that tight spot he was in, I’ve got a ways to go. There is nothing easy about heavy equipment repair, but that’s why he makes the big bucks. Welding in school versus welding in the real world are complete opposites on the spectrum.

You can watch the artsy tig welders on Utube and learn how to lay pretty beads in perfect conditions, or you can watch Isaac and learn real life field work, but you still have to be able to lay pretty beads in less than perfect conditions.

You seem to get the HARD spot area repairs. Just a super repair and you sure know how to place the camera to detail the work, for us guys that enjoy seeing you at work. Man you are the best. After you stop welding, you can teach how to get detailed camera views. Thank for allowing us to watch over your shoulder.

Common problems around the rock quarries.. I have my own portable welding service.. Been doing these type jobs for many years now.. Can't express it enough! Please call me before it gets this bad.. I noticed from the starting of your job the weld and the patches.. Everyone is a welder until the welder shows up ! 😎 Track loaders, Drill rigs, track hose, And more.. Small problems Result into big expenses If these small problems go unnoticed.. I can't just weld over a crack and let it go.. I've watched several of your videos you do good work ! It's called PRIDE !

BROVO BROTHER! Nice job once agine! I've been watching you for some time now and I want to complement you on your "Plasma Cone Discipline" as we call it in our world of professional Weldors. You hold a good tight arc and use your amperage settings well even in tight positions! We use to say " If it dont sound like Catfish frying turn it up! LOL! Also you run a Gouger and a Gas-Axe excellently! Keep on keeping on bro Stay safe god bless.
