It's much easier than she's making it look. Just go fast and get the colored welds everywhere; It looks cooler and still works like a beast. It's an exhaust pipe, we're not welding the space shuttle here. lol. And she can make it as perfect as she wants, but it's going to heat up and change the color of the pipe as you ride it anyway. So then what was the point in taking all that time to make it perfect?

[@silversoozookee2839]

Who would I contact to inquire about getting an exhaust made for my motorcycle? Been poking around for a few years and keep getting no help from local shops.

Natasha is a excellent welder but you can tell she would be an even better instructor. Very articulate and able to explain processes without rambling. 👍 for Natasha and awesome video!

[@ncstonecrew]

100% agree!

[@dereklalande8011]

She makes me think of My teacher in welding school right now shes really good my teacher used to do earospace too actually idk why she left but we have seen her weld and jesus christ im so happy i have her to teach me tig welding

[@enchantedape8180]

I weld tested at unobtainium last year. The shop is absolutely immaculate. I felt like I was welding in a laboratory.

[@calholli]

That's because you literally were.

[@iandemachine8914]

Did they run you?

[@enchantedape8180]

@@iandemachine8914 no they paid low $30's an hour low benefits. I was already employed making $52 an hour with maintenance job at a refinery. With a child on the way it was a no Brainer to stay where i was.

[@iandemachine8914]

@@enchantedape8180 Yeah I've the same problem. I get $60 an hour for welding garbage. $30 a hour doesn't go far in Alberta with a wife and three kids. It would be cool if they could pay more for that type of work. But I suppose its oil and gas that makes the world go round.

[@enchantedape8180]

@@iandemachine8914 ya you nailed it. If I was starting out in the trade this would be the absolute best place to work. I also live in edmonton so to fold up everything for half the pay might not be the best idea. But God damn I was like a kid in a candy store so many nice cars. Still a pleasure to have been in there.

[@draincctv8659]

Natasha has some mad skills & this is one of the best Titanium welding demonstrations I've seen.

[@newportbeach3621]

She a amazing welder and her knowledge of welding refreshing how she explains what she is doing..

[@SETtheTONE.]

We need more videos like this, I’m opening my own shop to do this exact thing! She is very skilled & knowledgeable, keep the videos coming & feature her please.

[@andrewhawksworthwood1372]

She's awesome 😊

[@kleinbiker1]

I love that she is reinforcing that color is bad in a ti weld. So many ricers have promoted the whole rainbow "titanium look". Drives me crazy.

[@jamfd3s788]

Color is bad in the WELD, coloring the metal after the weld means nothing and just because u think something isn’t cool doesn’t mean it isn’t lol

[@tripwheelerton2417]

awesome work, first time seeing Titanium without any coloring.

[@jacobcarolan1172]

That cup setup is crazy!

[@lowhydrogen7018a1]

I can’t imagine how to figure all of those cuts. Amazing work, I would definitely struggle doing that day in and day out.

[@jeepwk6.5L]

Actually fairly easy although it looks challenging

[@SergioPena20]

Doing it day in and day out would make it easier over time. It really just comes down to taking your time and making accurate cuts.

[@davidswanson5669]

It’s possible that they are all the same cut angle. If you look at stove piping (household stove pipes), you can create any type of winding curves and even straight runs, just by twisting the orientation of each of the angled section pieces.

[@jeepwk6.5L]

@@davidswanson5669 yes that is exactly how you do it. Usually 4.5 or 7.5 degree cuts

[@vongdong10]

Pie cuts are super easy to do nowadays. There are plastic pieces that are used for mocking up and equipment for making the exact same angled cuts.

[@michaelnoyes4817]

Allways good to see an artisan at work

[@Factory400]

That BBW cup allows a HUUUUGE stickout on the tungsten. I love that setup.

[@Blanc777]

This is great. People tell me all the time that colour in Ti is fine, I’ve never believed them. Interesting needing to leave the filler in the shielding gas. Makes a lot of sense.

[@confuse9]

For exhaust systems its fine. Basically its not a structural part and there is almost no pressure in the pipes (a few PSI maybe) Those tack welds were probably enough to keep the exhaust together. If you are working on a jet engine... nuclear power plant etc. There might be a bit more concern on the strength and corrosion resistance esp inside the pipe where it is difficult to inspect.

[@peterpeter5666]

very impressed! im no where close to being A professional welder but i weld from time to time and this woman is a beast at welding ! hats off to you !

[@Kajpaje]

Real artistry. Always happy to see women in the trades, and you can be sure they've had to earn their place there.

[@rawbennett]

Today I learned about purging the pipe with argon!! Every day is a school day (if you turn up to class haha) My tig welding is rank armature at best so watching you do such acute job of that titanium exhaust is literally a pleasure to watch!!

[@hmerced3668]

Like always thank you for the time you spend with all those watching who are willing to increase, or just learning to weld, the artful skill of welding. Thank you.

[@jt5747]

Word on the street, guys, is that Natasha is going to pick one lucky fellow from the comments section, whom she has deemed most complimentary, for a lifetime of marital bliss with her. So keep those comments coming. Comments like, "Beautiful!... and the welds look good too😘" are considered particularly original and will score you extra points. You can pick up more bonus points if you mention that she is so much better than most male welders, coupled with a version of how much you support women like her in the industry. Let's get busy, boys. Natasha is waiting. Contest closes 12/31/2036, at which time some of you will surely still be posting on this video, looking for her attention.

Awesome video and perfect explaination on how to weld Ti! Far to often ppl believe they can weld Ti, but damn, she knows how!

[@Welder_Danea]

Nice work! Love seeing other women crushing it in the industry!

[@Welder_Danea]

@Yo Joe I’m not bias 1 bit I look up to male welders as well not just female. I’ve been in the industry 10 years. I just get tired of the boys in the industry who think we don’t belong. Maybe because they are scared we could take their job?!

[@Welder_Danea]

@Yo Joe if you were female and knew what extra bs we have to put up with you would understand.

[@Welder_Danea]

@Yo Joe sadly it’s true but an arrogant man wouldn’t get it. Where’s your video on this since it’s so “easy” I’d love to learn from you.

[@Welder_Danea]

@Yo Joe well obviously you wouldn’t have to teach someone who does have it figured out. Obviously if they don’t care to learn then there’s no point wasting your time. And we wonder why everyone is short on help.

[@calholli]

She's actually welding it together, crushing it apart is better done with a hammer.

[@peters5333]

I know a little bit about Unobtainium and the work they do so its very cool to see more of their work as I can design exhaust systems but am only learning now how to make them now! Can we get more videos from Natasha? She explains her set up and targets very well. I have a cheap TIG Yeswelder in my garage and am welding mild steel tubing but want to see how the pros hold the torch, cup and tungsten size and torch hand position on the part These small details (ie: comfort and positioning and torch angle) are incredibly important as I am learning. This is exactly the type of video I am looking for.

[@dumbestoyster]

That have an IG account

[@jfratis9081]

I use C-stands in the shop as well. Posted a project on a forum and no one who responded cared about the tig welded cage. They all wanted to know what the stands were holding the tubing in place.

[@glennthornton3925]

could you enclose your exhaust in a cabinet and have everything under gas?? That's how we did our welds to (like you said) prevent discoloration. Also along with not removing your filler wire from under the shield, we snipped the end to keep from injection any contamination back into the weld. But absolutely beautiful work

[@adampindell]

I've never welded titanium. Looks tricky and meticulous; my kinda stuff. Thanks for the crash course!

[@edsonbojorquez2913]

It’s actually very similar to welding stainless steel actually, I had the impression that it was very hard as well, but just focus on cleaning and gas coverage and you’ll be good

[@adampindell]

@@edsonbojorquez2913 that was one of the key things I noticed, is that the gas cup was not moved outside glowing portion of the material until cooled.

👍I made myself this for my Toyota microbus but from stainless steel. Phew , hard work.

[@brianfisher7385]

Some serious skills on display here.

[@000gjb]

When I was taught how to TIG weld mild steel, I welded mild steel edge to edge up to 1.6mm thick without filler wire. When the weld was pounded into a hole in an Anvil, the metal split and failed at right angles across the welded joint to prove the technique. I was also taught that if there is a gap, the gap is the width of the filler wire using a travelling keyhole between the metal pieces to weld the two adjacent pieces of metal. How do these two techniques differ when welding Titanium and how is filler wire composition chosen?

[@JamesJ1010]

Did alot of aircraft titanium welding in vacuum chambers which were then filled with argon gas to eliminate any discoloration or contamination

[@chriscondon3927]

You are an amazing welder! Very detailed and explanatory. I wished I was that good.

I want to T some extra multipoint support for a road racer. I have 300lbs weight break but cant cut car. The main cage must be DOM but for extra bracing/cross I can use anything. Tubing, filler and the gas is affordable. Experience is 0. I am envious but grateful for content!

[@06E60S85]

Had no clue about the colors in the weld on Ti...Everyone seems to look for and remark about the color as though its desirable when as it turns out, is really just a very noticeable sign of an inferior weld. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent.

Get a box and sit the exhaust in the box and fill the box with Argon and the Argon will displace the air as it is much heavier than air...And you can reuse the gas as long as it doesn't have any leaks....

I would like to ask about why the pie pieces as you call them. Is it to do with difficulty in bending Ti? I have no experience in Ti. When I was working as a Boilermaker Welder ( I left that for drafting 30 years ago) I only worked in mild steel and we called those bends lobster back bends. I enjoyed fabricating and welding. Back in the 80s when the PC became a thing I wrote programs to print segment paper templates for pipe beds and intersections. Was a lot of fun learning that and my boss loved the time saving ideas I came up with. Pity he said no to a raise but. !! LOL. Oh and as a hobby outside of work I used to make motorcycle exhaust systems in mild steel and just stick welded them. No TIG or MIG in my garage at that time. Just a cheap stick machine. But I was good at it :)

[@bareskinwarrior9895]

Where did you get the welding cap?

[@Skovsnegl]

Hi, i am a 1 year apprentice as a stainless steel smith and i am wondering why you don't have a longer slopedown time?. In the stainless tubing for waterplants that i work on, you are at risk of creating a suction hole if the timer is set to less than 5 seconds and that will fail an inspection. Is that something you don't need to look for in a exhaust pipe?
