Exceptionally gifted teacher. I have boots older than this cat. Your never to old to learn and never to young to teach. Thank you

went to school for welding and now specialize in stainless steel tig. Yeah that guy is good, and that's some thick material.

do you mind if I ask how much you make doing tig welding?

[@RuShEd_AltF4]

@@Chris-wd2ey much like stick welding you'll do well making money. I'm currently in welding doing Tig, Mig, and stick. Just learn how to do all of it, it's not hard, and it opens you up for more job opportunities

This has to be the best walking the cut tutorial. Thank you very much for the time and effort you took to make this.

[@richardgallegos36]

I just got a new position as a welder at the company I work for, and I got lucky getting into it with zero experience. So I find myself learning on the spot or by feedback from coworkers. So these videos help and are perfect for someone like myself who is just getting a career started welding, and I’m sure I’ll keep watching and learning for years to come. Thanks a lot bro.

I just finished my first 2 welding classes, my instructor asked us if we wanted to see him do tig, so he sets up and starts going and it was SOOOO quiet. Not only that but it was kinda hypnotizing watching him do weaves and it just clicked in my brain that tig welding is actually art bro.

[@autodidacticartisan]

Tig welding *is* art. This dude is Rembrandt

[@BigPowerAL]

Watched the video and went to the garage to give this a try. Dang, it worked as described! Who would’ve thought KZbin would make me a better welder! Thanks for the info!

[@mrbones4399]

Thank you for the comparison at around the 11:00 minute mark. I've been welding for a few years, still have much to learn, and just entered my first foray into the world of TIG welding. I got the hang of walking the cup with no filler (trying to build consistency before I tackle adding filler in). After much frustration I can now get a half-decent result. My current beads look like #1, and it was insightful to hear how it's what most people's beads look when starting out. I'm certainly no exception! Thanks for telling us what to do if we want to change the appearance of the finished weld, I'll definitely be trying out the different weave patterns next time I get a chance. Cheers

[@thatjackedwelder]

Just got my Pressure ticket in TIG about 3 months ago and have now been working at my new Gig for the Union for about 2 months. We are doing Sched 10 Stainless Steel and I had no fucking idea what I was doing.. lol. I strictly learned how to pass that test Through this channel, believe that or not. I practiced for 3 hrs at the Hall then I went in the following Friday and passed the test, beginners luck I gues... Since being on this project I have progressed a lot and mainly due to the other experienced Welder being super rad and helping me out so much. I am proud to say I am finally walking the cup on every joint now. Does it look perfect? No, but it's certainly getting a lot better. Thanks dude for everything you do, you kinda help change my life. Love this shit.

[@MopMan-n7f]

I want to complement you on both, your excellent job when welding, and your clear way of communicating. Using the big pipe to communicate the concept made it really clear and easy to understand. Thank you.

[@madjack956]

A lot of people have exceptional skills at their chosen trade, but very few have a knack for teaching. You are a great teacher.

[@johnrandall125]

I intend to do a TIG welding course at college come September and this has been a very helpful video. This guy is a natural teacher.

[@Nordicduke369]

These guys are notorious at my school for giving oversimplified and basic knowledge but this video actually helped so thanks

[@ericfranzen8413]

I've been tig welding professionally for 23 years....wonderful job teaching! Please please keep it coming! With good, encouraging craftsman like you, we can close up the skills gap for sure! Thank you!

best one yet thanx cant afford school so all i have is watching yall and doing it on my own at night i watch yall after work every day i practice

[@elirobertson182]

Man I've been watching all kinds of videos just trying to get a good feel for things. This one really helped me, especially with the arc shots and you can see the stick out. I realised mine was way too short and my angle was all wrong too. Great video, thank y'all!

[@chui19801]

You have to be kiddind. Th best tutorial I have ever seen. So simple but requires discipline. Thank you lord Jesus because I am about to do and learn welding. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to you and love ones.

[@bearsharkp3901]

I've burned thousands and thousands of pounds of stick and flux core wire but never had the chance to run tig. This is a great video for people like me who understand welding fundamentals and how to manipulate the puddle. Good job

[@sahibdial8856]

Me too

[@deltathunderfalcon8512]

I'm just tuning in to this video for the first time. Just started class at my local tech school for welding. Steady trying to burn, learn, and eventually earn. This helps out a lot! Gracias Aguilo!

[@rowlinstoned3715]

Dude I LOVE how u explain it. I've had 20 guys try to explain it and that's it. I've been welding a lil while now but that can help even someone that just needs a lil cleaner looking edges.

[@macspeed5464]

Who needs welding class when you have this video and channel! Thank you! Learned a lot watching this video

[@andrewrussell2729]

I’ve been watching your channel for a year now and love the explanations. The “ mini me” walking the cup truly helped me. I did slip because I had too much Tension and the image of the “mini me” helps you relax. I’ll be down for a class when I’m off rotation. Always learning in the trade.

[@juscruzen]

I’m not a welder yet but I’m looking at videos for a reason! I’ve needed to weld stuff in the past and took it somewhere to have it welded, because I didn’t have a welder and never welded before except when I was in the army back in the 80’s. I’ve welded a few things and cut a few things with acetylene. I was nervous thinking about TIG but you make it look easy! Your Demeanor is excellent and the way you teach! Really a nice and understanding video! Thanks for the info Mr!

[@shawnzemo8806]

The school I went to sucked the instructor ended up sleeping with the nurse instructor and we got left out..I ended up stuck on structure building rigs..I had to pick up a tig rig during lunch... I wish I could have had you...it's so good to see there's actually good instructors out there keep up the good work!!!

[@ARSZLB]

shawn zemo ...i feel like i might be stating the obvious here, but did the thought ever occur to you that part of the reason that it didn’t work out so well for you is that you fucked the instructor? and wtf is a “nurse instructor’ in the context of welding school...?

[@larrymasterspowerbuildingc4477]

I am a new welder and will you tell me what you think of this: I just had an idea for the hand that feeds the filler metal: Get some line paper or a yellow legal pad and practice at home feeding the filler in between the red line that runs the length of the paper, or in between the horizontal lines or on the blue lines one row at a time. Practice different speeds. And get some graph paper and score sections to feed the filler rod at different speeds. Bout to get this money y'all! Thanks WeldTube! You guys are the best!

[@sylejmanisma9944]

...I must admit that first when I listened to u, I hit unlike button cause I thought that u are not going to show nothing and I'm just wasting my time...but when u started to explain how to use imagination and the example that u took....than everything changed, cause I found the best explanation on youtube ... thank u for giving me this opportunity to learn TIG welding !

[@texaspipeliner9432]

Also, a lot of welding is preference, however, in the beginning of your welding career when you are on non critical task your preference will prevail. As you gain experience from plate or dummy legs to Critical High Pressure (CHP) you will be welding per code. So be open minded of your preference.

[@fezthemagicman]

When i first did tig welding i found it was similar to oxy-fuel welding with a filler rod but with a foot petal included, i played drums alot at the time so it helped out being in tune with my hands. But thats thinner material. Thicker material you can pretty much just floor the foot petal and go.

[@luvkountry]

Very nice tutorial.. I've always preferred that once I've established the puddle I would cross from side to side quickly. This creates your tight bead. I've also applied this technique to stick welding. Once a good puddle is established cross from side to side quickly. Creates a tight smooth bead profile.
