For those that want deeper context for each weld aside from cosmetic appearances: #1 Weld - Underfill, concave weld - unfinished. Granted it's only a railing, but railings matter. In this case it's structurally sound. #2 Weld - As said in the video, inconsistent. Which isn't a crime. Other than that there is a slight underfill, and cold spots, but is structurally sound. #3 Weld - Only issue with this I don't see the undercut he's talking about, but it looks like a cold weld with a cold tag, looks like welder was welding too fast and NOT hot enough. #4 Weld - Hot crater is a HUGE issue, this is a result of not terminating your weld with a trail weld (letting off the heat and gas slowly). Craters lead to cracks, especially in aluminum. #5 Weld - No problems with this one, slight cold tag but not an issue. #6 Weld - The weld itself is not that bad, it looks like a penetration pass, but it is extremely underfilled. Slap a cover pass on that and it's a go. #7 Weld - Again, railings matter. Railings saves lives. This weld is completely cold. The reason it looks like that is because A: The welder didn't have enough amperage to heat up the base metal, or B: The operator was too impatient to let the base metal heat up before throwing down the beads. This is the equivalent of super gluing these together, hardly any fusion in this weld. #8 Weld - I'm not a stick welder but I'm assuming he's talking about cosmetics, to me it looks structurally sound. No major discontinuities in this one. #9 Weld - Gorgeous. Structurally sound human height gauge.

Keep in mind, the best welds on the park will be on the coasters themselves, not so much the stations built around them. Older rides don't have the same standards now, but since the mid-90s, it has been standard to ultrasound and x-ray all track welds, along with most support welds where the structure is likely to be under a high load. Visited a track factory in the Netherlands a number of years ago, and they actually said the reason is longevity, rather than just safety. Each track piece is pretty unique, so it's cheaper to invest in better manufacturing from the start than need to come back 25 years later to replace the worn/old segments.

@livingintheLight. Funny you say that because you apparently don't know what qualifications you need to even take the class and test. You need to have been a Welder for a minimum of 5 years and if you haven't then you can't take the class and test. It seems like you are a weldar and not a welder.

It’s good to see that the best welds tend to be on structural joints for the roller coasters themselves.

Exactly. And most of the crappy welds were on railings and non-structural parts.

The welds on the measuring sticks were probably the best because they were done in a shop. As opposed to the others which were all probably done on site.

[@nicopaoletti3501]

Probably more like a factory for most of those welds. The really bad one was probably a maintenance guy or something on site though.

Wait a second I just remembered HR. We need to get a real list going and plot this all out. Bartenders and Welders definitely have some competition. I would actually even take Bartenders out of the Top 3 honestly but maybe that’s just because I don’t deal with too many of them? Or maybe it’s because there might be a certain type of Bartender I just haven’t become familiar with yet?

[@jonathanchavarria17]

People don’t realize that without thinking your putting your trust in someone’s welds every day 😂

[@Samuelfish2k]

Notice how the weld on the actual ride was done pretty damn good compared to the rail in the waiting line. My guess is the guy who welds on the actual ride is most experienced and gets paid the big bucks while rail boy is a rookie.

[@lasergames1798]

I'm work for a General Contractor and certain buildings or structural components will require a 3rd party inspector to x-ray welds. If I were to guess, the welds for the rides are all x-rayed to maximum safety.

[@rory9088]

Thankfully, you place your trust in the extensive testing process and inspectors too. That’s why all the welds on the actual ride were so much better.

God rest my Uncle Brian's soul, past away 30 years ago. Civil engineer who was contracted by the original owners of Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California. He inspected every weld of every rail, roller coaster track, building construction and even the The Sky Needle. He was telling us about how it kept "falling" which was engineer speak for the counter weight falling. He made the park disassemble every piece of track from the park tram and reweld every joint. They complained about the delay and he reminded them they don't open unless every ride is safe.
