Love your positivity, man. Can't stop binging on your videos. Lots of interesting stuff too, even for a total newb like myself. Learn a lot. The fact that you don't show the stuff you don't like deserves separate respect. The old motto of "If you don't have anything nice to say about it - don't say anything at all!" still stands. Thanks for the content and keep up the AWESOME work you do. Cheers from a [hopefully soon] frozen wasteland of Moscow suburbs.

Hahahaha u totally had me with the Edge guitarist thing dude. I laughed and sed "no way!, well I'll be damned Edge, good on ya" and then u sed JUST KIDDIN! GOOD TO SEE U. ACK BROTHER! Great informative video with new cups I've never heard of

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Nice! Yeah I hoped at least someone would laugh at that dumb humour I couldn’t resist😂😂😂 Thanks brother! Hope you’re doing good?

Just started using Edge Welding Glass products and they are AMAZING! The reason you won't go back to the ceramic has to do with the extra screens that are in the glass. It makes your arch 10x more stable because the gas flow is UNREAL SMOOTH! That's why I am so hooked on Edges glass cups. I just can't go back to ceramic.

[@youngmango4508]

The moment I saw that adapter Infront of those cups, I knew I had to buy it.

[@andrewhiggins9732]

Amazing what you did with a simple plate of steel. Love your videos.

Another top video my friend, always enjoy your videos and tig art 👌😁👊

Had me for a sec with the edge welding. We all know it’s Bono. Cool cups tho

Flip flops with socks! Major faux pas! Hahaha!

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Hahaha I love that it took this long for someone to chirp me for that! 😂 Cheers my friend 🍻

[@untipoverable]

Excellent presentation. I think I'm finally gonna branch out beyond the old pink cups I've used for years. I saw some rather unorthodox shapes on the Edge website. Have you tried any of those really long XXL cups or the "#12 narrow" with the rectangle opening?

[@77Avadon77]

Once you do you'll never go back. I was one of the last ones to start with the glass cups thinking it was gimmick. It's NOT! The extra screens you can put in the glass cups make the arc tremendously more stable because all those little stacked screens. Once I tried edge cups for about 30hrs of welding I knew I was hooked. Went back and bought a few hundred dollars of their cups. Now i'll just use my ceramics till they run out and not renew them.

[@petermccuskey1832]

Thank you for info on edge company. Am going to order some.

[@Levidanielz]

Love the video! I'm an industrial pressure systems welder looking forward to trying some out in the field. Thanks!

NICE !! getting ready to order !

[@lakeschoolrestorationchann1567]

Found you through a post on Facebook welding art page. Excellent video 👍🏻

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Amazing! Thank you so much for checking the video out! Do you tig weld as well? Cheers 🍻

[@lakeschoolrestorationchann1567]

Pacific Arc Tig Welding Yes I do, I have done a bunch of pieces on stainless. Some of them are on oldschoolrestoration on Instagram. I will have to look your IG up if you have one. I like that you seem to do a lot of freehand drawing on plates. Most art welders use clip art and other stuff to make it easier.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Thanks! I appreciate you say that. I have used a stencil for one piece, but am trying to do it completely without now, I like drawing the pieces from my sketches and ideas freehand, straight up. Makes them more original I feel:) Tag me on Instagram! I’d love to see:)

[@jakemichaud8219]

Thanks man, I've learned a lot and appreciate how creative you are!

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Dude thank you! That makes me pumped to hear you got some value from it! Do you tig weld too? Cheers my friend 🍻

[@jakemichaud8219]

@@PacificArcTigWelding I'm a self taught metal artist. I've been teaching my self how tig. I just got an AC/DC machine last month. I've been watching your videos to learn aluminum. I really appreciate the attention to detail in your videos.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Wow! Dude that’s amazing! Hit me up on Instagram so I can see your work! I love to see how people are doing when they’re getting going. Great you invested in your own machine! What did you get?

[@jakemichaud8219]

I got a Primeweld tig225x. It a 225 amp Ac/DC inverter. It's got tons of good features. I will hit you up on Instagram. My art is on Instagram at JakeMichaudCreations.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Just found you! Glad you got a good machine! Little inverters are so nice and compact...!

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

Cool little adapter! Are the o-rings replaceable as they wear down over time?

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

They would wear down over time, especially if welding at higher amps:) Not a big deal to order and replace though:)

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@PacificArcTigWelding so, easier to replace the whole cup plus O-ring than just the O-ring?

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

No; it’s a common type of heat resistant o-ring, I think they’re generic sizes. You can just order replacement pieces off amazon:) I’m sure they’re used for lots of different things. 🍻

[@Moparmaga-1]

Do you have a basics video on how many amps for different types of metals ? I tried out my tig welder yesterday, I found out I did alot wrong after trying aluminum & also I tried outside in the open air. I had alot of respect for your talent, I never expected to be able to do it very good in the beginning but now my respect for your skill is tremendous. I need a few pointers for starting. On my AC cleaning am I supposed to be on the 30% or 70% Also ceriated tungsten is it no good for aluminum ?

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

You can use ceriated for sure! I find I tend lo enjoy it more on an inverter as opposed to a transformer type machine, but you can rip AC or DC with it. For your balance, a great ballpark is to start 70% DC- and 30% DC+. This will give you great cleaning action and with a balled tungsten, it’ll hold its shape well. As far as a general vid on settings, I don’t have one video. If you watch my demo ones I did a while back on the 4 welding joints and the torch setup it’ll get you pointed in the right direction with ballpark settings. I also have a couple stainless vids where I go over some settings for flat position that’ll get you started:)

[@Moparmaga-1]

@@PacificArcTigWelding great. I'll give all that a try. Thanks

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Absolutely. Hit me up with any questions at all:)

[@Moparmaga-1]

1st how do you get tungsten out of your eye ? (I had a mask on & my glasses were sitting out so as to not fog them) I guess at this point, I'm going to need to figure out the questions 1st if you get my drift. I take it you must've had some welding experience or training ? I think there's a tig training center down the road from me.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Ha well I’ll say first off I have no medical training of any kind- so that’s one I can’t help with 😂🙏 But yes- I was taught at my job for my apprenticeship, then through all my schooling. And now I get to be on the other side to teach people now which is super fun. Both in person and online as well. :)

@@PacificArcTigWelding ive seen them in your video and realy impressed😅 but ive got one more question when you do stainless steel artwork, where do you get your steel plate from and hom much does it cost or cost per kg?😅

Hmmmm. About a case of Heineken per piece...!😂 My buddy owns a waterjet shop, I bring him beer, a random piece of stainless shows up at the end of my driveway the next day...! I have one piece of stainless that’s a giant oval shape- I gotta figure out what to do with that one! It’s been challenging to sketch something that jives well with that shape!

[@gregwilkins7649]

Another really cool art piece Dusty. These cups look pretty nice. I was actually looking around earlier today and found there site. Then this video was the next in my journey through your video playlist. They look like a good alternative to Furick, I don't care for the choice of acronyms he uses for the FUPA line it's a rather vulgar term. Not sure what the other acronyms he uses stand for bit I imagine they aren't much different.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Edge makes really nice stuff for sure. I definitely rep their brand because i genuinely really like it💪 Plus their amazing people who run it!

[@gregwilkins7649]

@@PacificArcTigWelding I'll have to check there site out more. I have a Miller Multimatic 220 AC/DC I'm sure I'm going to want to upgrade the torch at least with a gas lens. I also really want to try making my own acrylic back cap. I make pens and shave brushes and stuff like that so I just need to find oit were to get the brass threaded part. May have to disassemble some inexpensive back caps to get them.

[@PacificArcTigWelding]

Oh damn and then make some for me too right!?😂

[@gregwilkins7649]

Absolutely. If you have any broken back caps send them my way. I'll salvage the brass part and make some custom ones. Or do you know a source for the brass threaded part. I'm assuming different torches have different size threads.
