I began working recently as a pipefitter and welder and after seeing this video i am very happy that i got lucky with a nice colleague who taught me those tricks in my first days of working, but still - the process of learning never ends its until you retire hehe. Nice and helpful video !

[@rufusmacck3712]

Ingenious. Makes a frustrating task much easier.

[@willb3018]

Now if that isn't one of the handiest tricks. Thanks.

[@txtoolcrib]

Which one?

[@willb3018]

@@txtoolcrib I kind of meant the whole thing as dealing with a pipe. But all of them for sure.

[@nixic_]

@@txtoolcrib The centering trick and the seam tape to get matching sides for drilling is going to save my ass in the future. =)

[@robertpatterson3406]

Been a pipefitter welder for 50 years and have used those techniques forever although I have never liked using the paper to divide the pipe rather I will find the circumference and divide it into fourths, eighths or sixteenths, use a 1/4” wide tape measure to make my measurements and then use the angle iron to make my lines .

[@ringsidejudge4302]

Really clever , just what I was looking for to make a metal curve to create a curve on a wall coping mould . Brilliant demo ,

[@viking8781]

Nipping the corners on the paper was a new one for me, I'll be using that. Lately a lot of customers have been wanting things made out of pipe or tubing and I'm taking to long so all the tips are welcone

[@txtoolcrib]

I hope you find them helpful

[@randmayfield5695]

You have produced an outstanding instructional. Well filmed, well described, and lots of detail with no 'holes' in the content. I 'liked' and subscribed. Thank you as i have learned something valuable.

[@txtoolcrib]

Thank you on all counts sir.

[@jaysondearhouse2769]

Thank you for saving me from hours of headache! Awesome!

[@GrimThe21]

Nipping the corners. Be using this one tomorrow. Thanks dude

[@txtoolcrib]

You’re quite welcome.

[@davemowers7827]

That was SWEET!! Well done. Thanks man!

[@wayned5872]

Great idea on the seam tape , I've gone thru( burned up& had pilfered) too many wrap arounds..they aren't cheap anymore

[@txtoolcrib]

Nothing is!

I am currently moving this type of content, including knot tying videos onto my other channel. I am going to focus that channel on layout, fabrication and construction methods and tips. I hope you’ll check it out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYWvl5dqh7-of8Usi=TRS8NcMmrk4eqLSW

[@AlpacaRenee]

Thank you! You just saved me the price of another tool as well as room in my tool kit! That paper tape marking trick is like making paper dolls when I was a kid.😇

[@MrSixxshooter]

Really great video . Thank you

[@txtoolcrib]

Thank you.

[@Dragon-Slay3r]

How ironic. Lol

[@larrymasterspowerbuildingc4477]

Outstanding! Thank you. New welder here and I have to learn howt o do this for my new job. I am not a piepe welder, but we are going to be doing some freelance stuff and I want to stay at thsi company. They will appreciate my due dilligence. I thank you for this teaching so I can have some know-how to feed my family.

[@PriceReynoldsMaker]

Well done 👍

[@danielbadiang3817]

Nice 👍🏽. How do I miter a Y on a 6” pipe were you would have your straight peace and then Y off your next pipe on a 45%

[@benjaminvalenzuela3948]

I think you are referring to a branch. Just so I understand correctly, you have one continuous pipe that goes through, and then you have another pipe that connects to the straight pipe at a 45° angle?

[@danielbadiang3817]

@ yes exactly

[@sstanley1911]

Great video but if you use the protractor that goes on the starrett center head with scale you can achieve any angle you want

[@nixic_]

Thanks for sharing =)

[@ElFlako0525]

You could also use the first method to quarter the pipe. Just mark on the side

[@frankreinhardt441]

Yeah, a lot faster to use the square and level to quarter it than to make and use the tape method.

[@retnav92]

Cool tip 👍😎

[@txtoolcrib]

Thank you.

[@foxxychakoi5692]

Really useful video thanks sir 🤙❤️

[@jasonchampion9932]

[@amsoiltek]

Now let's see if i can use this trick on a 20ft 2" diameter aluminum pipe. Need to have center-line for a ham radio antenna project. Thanks

[@dfish1]

Dry wall tape was slick

[@fahadalrashid8411]

Good job 👍🏼👍🏼

[@curtisbergeron5585]

Bro, you can just crease your tape lined up with the side that makes it square. Also using the square method for finding center works on the sides as well as the top using the 1/2d method.

[@nickjohnson9515]

Thank u

[@EC20121]

Yes thank you!

[@gurmeetjakria]

Thanks for sharing

[@briandonnalley3156]

Use a small magnet to hold the paper tape in place at the seam. Bigger pipes it gets hard to transfer the marks while holding the ends together.

[@txtoolcrib]

Excellent idea

[@86prime]

I’ve laid out many a dummy leg with adding machine tape, but drywall tape would work so much better.

[@toggs6545]

Perfect 👌

[@coreyblanchard5177]

Or set center finder at the degree you want. "Close enough".😊

[@yep-yayaeasypipes5045]

good job...thank's

[@StevenJevnisek]

The paper tape trick is great, though, I think I would make the second folds separately, (so that the resulting tape made a "W" instead of an "L"), resulting in a more accurate 90 and 270 degrees. More important in machining than pipe fitting. Also, using the tape trick would provide a more accurate circumfrence tjan using a tape measure.

[@johnjacobjingle8302]

Ok you could just skip most of this video and go to 4:03.. put the level on the blade of that straight edge for plumb.. turns it 90 degrees for level and have 4 timing Mark's in 1 min.. you could even rest the end of the straight edge on top of the pipe.. find level useing the blade and mark both ends..

[@yep-yayaeasypipes5045]

good job....

[@alexlazarevich2656]

*Bonus Tip* 1.Tac weld the angle iron on to the pipe 2. use it as a guide 3. now make straight, length wise, cuts.

[@keithboyd7333]

Very good technique, simple and accurate.
