Wagging finger = instant “don’t recommend channel”

[@unikedesigndevelopment8903]

As a certified IWE, I can say that there are standards and regulations precisely for such connections. These specifications for the various connection types are then used as the basis for calculating the overall structures in terms of their structural integrity (strength verification). There are a large number of really technically sensible and mechanically comprehensible reasons for not unnecessarily complicating such types of connection. For example, it is no longer possible to precisely determine the load-bearing capacity of this connection, as the base material has been unnecessarily weakened and force flows are obstructed (all these weld seams in the middle of the profile), which leads to multi-axial stress states in the profile cross-section that do not occur with correct design (left side). Many thanks for this video!

[@leegarnier9396]

Good! I hadn't considered the calculation part yet. It makes sense that cutting away all the material negatively impacts the mechanical properties. Weld seams are usually the weak point with added risks of introducing imperfections. It looks more like a carpentry joint. It makes sense there I guess.

[@jjwagnell]

​@@leegarnier9396no, it doesn't make sense in carpentry either. With wood, once you cut it, it stays that weak; you can't weld it back together to restore even a semblance of the strength it had before.

[@GregorDuckman]

​@@jjwagnell true, but the key is that it "looks" like a wood joint to the untrained eye. It's trying to combine the most eye catching elements of metal and wood joinery regardless of whether it's actually strong, or cost effective, or time effective, or...

[@mikealext]

T, K and Y connections per code. You would also have to take into consideration the z loss from the lack of penetration at the skewed joint and properly measure your leg lengths.

[@Banana_BOI1]

As someone else pointed out, the reason that those shorts get popular is EXACTLY because of those bad welds. They know most people, even if not knowledgeable in welding, can see some absolutely bad welds. They KNOW this will make people want to correct the short and comment.

I've seen those shorts, and you are correct, they do those joints because they don't know how to weld. Stitch welding prevents penetration, and so, of course, they have to have other crazy ways to increase the weld length and tie the pieces together. Your methods make so much more sense and are so much easier. Keep up the good work!!

The more of a tubing joint that is intact and not part of a weld joint the stronger the resultant part will be. I've seen an old guide on permissible types of joints used in tubular space frames for aircraft. None of the joints involved completely welding around any one piece of tubing . Every tube in a joint had an unwelded section that was unaffected by heat to retain its original strength. Where necessary , gusset plates were welded to the joints to add strength.

[@thomasdalton1508]

How does leaving a section unwelded improve strength? If it isn't attached to anything, it has zero strength.

[@IIISpeeder]

[@ShimrraShai]

Honestly, I am shocked this kind of thing is even out there, apparently. I don't even weld and this just popped into my feed, but I would have _always_ thought you'd do it like on the left, not the right. That's what I've seen in every "welded" thing ever, like bike frames, etc. . First thing I thought was "YIPES ... cutting a notch like that is likely gonna make that other piece weak and break right there at that thin part!" Then also thinking about the extra work ... seriously, WHY would you make extra work that's _also_ counterproductive to the job?! The scary part is that there are now likely things actually out there actually made like this by some kid watching KZbin as his "welding teacher" (which is not to say that ALL of it is bad, after all your own video is here but I see ~63K views as of now and I suspect that those videos get way more - the real quality stuff doesn't get the views). This shit is going to get real people really hurt if not even k1lled. This is no fucking joke. Building things is not a joke if that thing is anything more than a toy and may bear serious weight/force and be used to do serious things. If something breaks ...

[@Norm8179]

Been building stuff for a while. The only time I have done some some of those odd "technics" is when building metal furniture, that's it.

[@avmech2126]

[@phendrix9476]

Your beveling is, in my humble opinion, a great habit to get into. It increases the fusion zone & eliminates filings that could affect the finished welding. You could also argue their silly joint increases the HAZ zone unnecessarily & wastes time, material, purging gas, etc. Nothing about welding aluminum is cheap or easy.

[@russellfreeburn6284]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think cutting a groove in the shaft like that significantly weakens its structural integrity.

But the crazy thing is what you have demonstrated is just common sense, something which is taking on the definition of "rarity" these days. In 1980, I was taught how to weld.

I weld up a lot of square tubing for various structures and the welds have to be ground and polished flush with the parent metal. I feel much more confident putting a weld bevel on in order to ensure complete penetration without having to worry about either IP or burn through. By grinding down the weld cap it is also a quick way to find out how you are doing with controlling porosity. I generally like to use a 45-degree bevel. What is your preference?
