It’s important to go to welding school but it is more important to learn how to weld. It doesn’t matter what you do just practice and keep practicing. Nobody can hold your hand. It’s up to you. American Welding Society! Welding schools!

😂 I love everything thing about this video. I kinda forgot about your channel because I forgot to tap that bell. I fixed that now. Your bottom welds are way more beautiful than I’ve seen on downhill. The super far dimes just don’t look right.

[@bradvincet1848]

Inspectors are guys who couldn't cut it themselves, so they're eager to pick other welders apart.

[@mikesumrall-bf8hb]

Blues Brothers is my all time favorite movie, thanks for all the tips, I work on heavy equipment, and this helps tremendously

[@TaylorWelding]

It’s one of those timeless movies that will always be good. Thanks for letting me know. I’m glad the videos help.

[@paneltruckbob]

Absolutely you make me laugh and I learn something in the process, Thanks

[@TaylorWelding]

Glad to help

[@user-yj5ye9wm5t]

man your videos are gold. not only huge amount of useful information, but also fills me with motivation to keep working and getting better. many thanks

[@stujones3566]

Wow dude, I can't believe how much the inner root run improved by welding over it.

[@chargermopar]

Glad to see your welding videos are back! I have been so busy I have not had much time to go online. Those welds look what I produce for my trailer and skid steer attachment projects. Get plenty of experts telling me my welds are not good enough but so far none have broken,.

[@bjen2005]

@TaylorWelding ---- Good to see you back on the welding channel again. Thanks Chris !!!!

[@Ag112493]

Love the videos, i have taught a few guys how to weld thru out my career but this past few years welders have becomed so obsessed over the way the weld looks that they rush thru the root and filler and they might have a nice looking weld but its just good looking on the surface

[@WelderB1Family]

Underrated situation! Thx for the info!

[@kez0o9]

Always try and get on with the welding inspector is a pro tip. Worst one I ever had was on a clad steel LPG tank in Germany one time . The guy was flawed to say the least always half cut from the night before and always getting a hard on for me and my two brit pals we eventually got somewhere else to go but before we left my mate got his certs stamped and accidentally picked up his TUV stamp. Due to communication and distance he unfortunately never got it returned 😉

[@gamerboy-ry4hc]

Love the uploads men more tips let's go

You got it!

[@Borderweldingservices]

Thank you kindly sir! I so love and appreciate your videos!

[@robertparsons1386]

I was taught to try and get hi/lo on top and let gravy help. Nice to see an option!! thanks for sharing the knowledge. I passed weld inspector school but didnt know anyone, so never got a job!!

[@downhilldaddy5282]

It was very chilly in the freezer brother 😂🤙🏾 good instructional video. The part, “ I didn’t strangle him” 😂😂💀

[@OVERCAPITALIZE]

Man this was a good video Mr. Taylor. Learned a lot more in these videos with the example and of you running the bead on camera.

[@TaylorWelding]

Cool, I’m glad

[@jovannechavez4493]

Good video brother keep it up

[@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736]

That’s the first time I’ve heard schedule 40 used on steel pipe. For some reason, I always think of PVC when schedule 40 or 80 is used, so it’s good to know it’s also used for steel pipe. Lol😂

[@brianguest561]

I like this line of video you will learn more from sticking with it and not giving up and figuring out how to make it right no matter how long it takes your videos will really help someone learn and develop a great work ethic. Please send me the information so I can buy one of the stingers from you if you have a extra Thanks again

[@TaylorWelding]

thank you. I don’t have any more stingers. I only had a few extra and I probably shouldn’t have sold them.

[@spotweld]

I think i hate you ,, your mister perfect..your smart , well spoken,a great welder and can play the harmonica and a pretty good story teller...Just kidding, so glad you're sharing your life experiences with us. Thanks

[@TaylorWelding]

Lol… if you think I’m Mr. perfect you don’t know me very well. Thanks for watching Bud.

[@EliAngwin]

I worked at VC Summer unit 2 and 3 before it went bankrupt as a weld inspector. At one point welding was stopped for several areas, for several days because the inspectors( weld engineering) and QC could not agree that a lap joint is also a fillet weld. No shit.

[@TaylorWelding]

I don’t doubt it

[@kingmandc]

The end part of this video about picky mickey made me think about a joke I heard other day about inspectors. Why do they have lawyers, doctors and inspectors??…because they don’t know how to weld.

[@TaylorWelding]

Lol

[@FG-qh7qx]

I have been a welder for close to 20 years now. I've been there. I've met all kinds of inspectors. Honestly, it's turned into a shit show. I WISH they made the inspectors test out on what they were going to inspect. That would eliminate a lot of the problem. Like you said, real-world scenario is different from the book.

[@reconscout706]

Hey Chris, could you possibly try the titan 225 voltage stick welder from harbor freight

[@TaylorWelding]

I would if they sent me one

[@StackingIron]

The best Inspectors are old grumpy welders that are still figuring out how to use a touch screen lol Inspectors need to be welders first, minimum 6 years at least you can have a understanding. I'm not gonna tell Elon how to build electric cars cause my daddy paid for me to take a test and got me a job lol My favorite inspection story was on my first tie ins. I was nervous only a year in and that old man taught me a lot and made it so simple. We started chit chatting after words and he told me back in the 70s when he got his first job he thought a pancake was made flat so your helper could hold it while you ate your "powdered donuts". Haven't seen him sense that job but forever grateful for the wisdom and the story's.

[@TaylorWelding]

Lol! That’s funny. Old Welder’s are hilarious

[@pkplexing]

A slight tangent question, but a while ago I bought a $2000 inverter welder when I started learning that could do 6010/cellulose rods, primarily because it is such a popular rod in the US based on videos such as yours. I definitely loved learning the rod, and found it quite fun to use, and it turned out to be the easiest rod to run on thin metal ( as in 1-2 mm thick ). But what do you think about its brittleness? I have not personally experienced it in any actual welds, but definitely noticed it in tacks, that it does not seem very ductile like 7018/7016 is. Have you seen any cracking/weld failures with 6010 related to its brittleness , and can perhaps you talk about the other variants such as 7010 and 8010 and how they might compare in general fabrication duties? Also, out of interest, have you ever tried 7016 twin coated electrodes (sometimes called 16TC, or KOBE LB-52U) ? It is a low hydrogen rod, can run on both EP an EN, and can run at very low amps ( ie, 30 amps on a 3/32 ) and still behave. Cheers and thanks for the videos

[@TaylorWelding]

Great question! I’ll make a video about this. Or at least put my next video

[@aaronwilson3952]

Hey does the inspectors require a minimum and maximum on the reinforcement of the cap and root? In your field of pipe? Or just sound weldment without undercut and lack of fusion? Thanks for the video.

[@TaylorWelding]

Above flush. Is all that has been required of me. As far as welding pipe fab.

[@rentonarc]

Great video ! Thanks for sharing

[@TaylorWelding]

Thank you!

[@welderapprentice5074]

never stops amazing me how much trash a guy can burn out and that he doesn't have to be overly hot to do it

[@TaylorWelding]

So true

[@mider9996]

sir, did you learn to weld on the job?

[@t-bone1890]

Mmmkay!

[@TaylorWelding]

Lol

[@neilshahndynasty.8882]

so you "push" the bead not lead it ?

[@TaylorWelding]

both

[@fztfabs65]

So when your running the bottom, regardless of hi lo or not, does a person wanna go really slow to build it up so it’s not so flat?

[@TaylorWelding]

No, there’s no need to go slow if the fit is good. Fusing it together above flush doesn’t take much metal. All you really want to do is break down the walls. I have a small bead in there. Anything else it’s just time, material and extra heat

[@fztfabs65]

@@TaylorWelding okay thanks for the reply. I’ve been told that maybe adjusting the rod angle a little can help a little with stacking it in there, is that right or wrong?

Don’t sweat the 1 inspector that walks around like he got King George’s boot up his ass (and proud of it), it’s always the inspectors JOB to critique others peoples work and be critical. Since pipeline work is one big interconnected project, it only takes a single insufficient weld to bring the entire line to a stand still. So it’s an unfortunate necessary evil But it appears this inspector is making a very serious error in judgment. He is confusing a clear professional who’s a realist explaining the ins and out of the job in field w/ the stereotypical hot shot welder boasting how’s he’s a pro. To the inspector who can’t see the difference, you are very clearly letting past experiences bias your comments and failing epically. Then again when you look through glasses smeared with shit, you’re gonna see a world covered in. Keep up the videos, I always appreciate the creators who show you what it really took … not the cleaned up edited version that makes it look like everybody and their grandma can pop out dime stacks before having breakfast.

[@wafflestomper3982]

You’d think it would be a requirement to have atleast 10 years welding to be an inspector🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TaylorWelding]

At least

[@dylanwinningham4829]

love to see what kind of a job that inspector from the comments could do with anything but a pen.
