WELDING FRAME LINERS WITH PETER ZILA & HTP PRO PULSE 220 WELDER! PLUS MICROCUT 45 DV PLASMA CUTTER!

[@lanceglassgow3761]

These are the kind of men that move this country forward.

[@Neverstopbuilding]

Amen.

[@WoodNMetalWorkshop]

I've been welding for over 40 years and still learn more every time I watch Peter.

[@ZILAwelds]

Thanks!

[@WoodNMetalWorkshop]

@@ZILAwelds you are welcome. Thanks for sharing your skills with the world. If you are ever in northern MN give me a shout.

[@ZILAwelds]

@@WoodNMetalWorkshop it is cold there ... I prefer, thennesee, Florida ... etc ... when you move let me know .. LOL. all joking aside, if I make ti to MN I will let you know !

[@rustyplunkett7763]

I don’t believe that your not being truthful

[@johnpartridge7623]

We're never too old to learn & It's a real treat to watch good Welding.

[@bryonhectorwelding]

1 thing I want to mention. Long welds like that liner I would start center weld about 6 to 10 inches, then back step alternating sides of the center weld. Above all frame material is normally higher strength and should be preheated 125 but not over 300, and slow cool rate with blankets. It will produce high strength high ductile weld joint.

[@ZILAwelds]

The solid wire was 030 the flux cored wire was 035. Everything else was spot on ! Nice explanation, EXCELLENT video!!!

[@j.c.smithprojects]

certainly appreciate all your efforts in showing me the equipment, how to set it up and the difference procedures. i look forward to a long and cooperative friendship.

[@elcajoia619]

He has the most overachiever underappreciated welding channels on KZbin!

[@SumterWrecker]

Mr JC That was awesome they sent a rep out to show their equipment. Thanks for sharing, and stay safe.

[@j.c.smithprojects]

i certainly appreciated the offer. he was a wealth ok knowledge.

[@scubasteve7946]

Awesome work and that's a great session of training. I am glad that our salesman told us up front- with the extra intensity and radiation from the pulse welder, absolutely no welding in a T-shirt anymore. Mandatory welding jacket to help shield out that light better from your skin. Those pulse machines are no joke!!

[@geoffmorgan6059]

Absolutely, and then there is aluminum. The reflective heat will fry you. If I remember we used to have different shaded lenses for aluminum.

[@alkennedy1124]

The biggest thing with mig is a highly clean surface both sides are nice and shiny clean ,,, thanks BigAl California spray arc is a beast ,,, good job camera lady , it is a beautiful thing to have a lady helping in these vlogs ,,, by you doing that helps all of us single me get hope back,,, that we find a lady such as you to help me in my shop , thanks BigAl California thanks J.C. Smith thanks BigAl California.

[@L.A.Concrete]

Knowledge is the key to the universe. It’s pretty cool that he came out and spent some time showing you how to use the machine and new techniques

[@ydocproductions5593]

What an awesome video J.C.! Peter is such a great teacher and you can tell he really cares about his trade, and wants to pass on his knowledge to others. Pretty slick the welder can switch between setting just by pulling the trigger. Not only is that convenient, but I’d imagine a huge time saver as well. Looking forward to the frame splice video. Take care👍

[@curtismoncus4118]

I really liked how the spray weld filled the wide area flatter with less grinding

[@jimanderson4495]

J.C. ….. thanks what a channel. I really appreciate your attention to detail AND quality. I’m on a J.C. marathon.

[@ShainAndrews]

Glad you had this opportunity. Get yourself one of those small notepads that farmers always had in their brest pocket. Keep notes on settings for a given process. When you move into machines with this many settings it's easy to get lost. You just need some anchor points to know where to start from. Leave the notepad inside the welder.

[@dakotamcclure6165]

Seems like a really nice welder. I glad you got that opportunity you deserve it for all that you do for others

[@billclisham8668]

That was VERY educational to say the least. I was amazed at how little splatter there was with the flux core by adding the shielding gas.

[@morgansword]

I can see a whole pile of saved metal pieces that when you get done practicing, It will be a solid lump of scrap iron they can't break at the scrap yard....... what a great experience JC.. I hope they let you keep the machine a good while so you can make the call on whether to buy or not as I am sure its not a cheap machine

[@andrewrobinson2869]

WOW what a machine sure does beat my gas-less machine. Never seen pulse welding before , that’s awesome . We need one of these machines here in Australia .

[@bobleeswoodshop7919]

Hey JC , it was fun for me hearing about the welding knowledge of today. Some things he was saying I remembered from my own experiences in welding school. But it has been over 45 years ago for me. The information you we’re getting was amazing.Thank you for sharing! Regards Bob Lee

[@Sircraig7963]

G'day JC,, Absolutely brilliant video, this is one of the most entertaining informative & professional welding videos I've ever seen. The welding unit itself is quite a machine ,I was sure impressed with the performance of the equipment. Ultimately,,the most pleasing elements ,were to see two highly intelligent men working together. I'm busting to see the next vid .. Bring it on JC. Respect ....!

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video J.C.Smith it was very nice you got learn from Peter on this new equipment. Looking forward to your next video stay safe Mr & Mrs J.C.Smith.

I've never been trained in welding it's great to get training at any age can't stop learning

[@mikescaffo4850]

Nice watching men like these teach us how it's done

[@kevinhornbuckle]

I would love to have one of those machines. Your productivity of clearly enhanced by being able to switch so quickly between the modes. Filling those holes went very fast.

[@j_moffitt]

The trigger tap to change settings is awesome! Need to get my hands on one of those machines

[@79Jasper042610]

A lot of people just call that gas shielded fluxcore dual shield. Puts down a lot of weld quick and hot. Sure, still should prep the metal, but it will burn through a lot of stuff. Same for the spray arc.

[@Ezrider359]

that is a really cool feature to be able to change between settings with a tap of the trigger. very interesting.

[@25vrd48]

Wow what a great opportunity to use an awesome welder and instructor . Practice makes perfect . Really another great video y'all . Good night from central Arkansas .

[@eddiepatterson5025]

I’ve never seen welding technology like this before and it’s amazing how it’s changed. Those machines are a game changer. This was a awesome video to have those people reach out to you and a rep a good teacher. You did well JC and for a rep to say you’re a welder that means a lot and you are a very good welder. Looking forward to seeing the next video. May you and your wife have a Blessed One Sir.

[@j.c.smithprojects]

It was a very good day. learned lots and got to know a true professional welder. built a great relationship with peter as well as usawelds.com. i look forward to using this equipment and the procedures peter has taught me.

[@randycecil7375]

Awesome video. Very cool to receive new toys and a teacher on how to use them!!

[@stevencox75]

very cool, one day ill get something to upgrade my stick welder from the 70's

[@NathansMoparGarage]

The welds look good with that new machine. Can you put a welding lens on the camera so we can see the arc and puddle when you are welding?

[@garyyorke1080]

Just sat and watched the little run on the truck frame stretch . Ending on this one . I'm very impressed with the mans skills more in the teaching than the doing . Looking forwards to seeing how the truck comes out and how you improve on your welding . And don't worry I know a fair few guys who say they can weld but in reality they can at best glue metals to each other not very well I might add .. thanks for sharing this video in particular.

Well sir, I am 59yrs young, and the last time I laid a weld down was junior high shop, and it was a stick welder., but I could watch, for hours, this “Peter” gentleman (and you) doing this type of work. Excellent video, Thank you sir.

I learned in FFA and rest I did on my own. I used weld for MTD. And you have do welding test first to weld for them

[@gliderider7077]

Lol damn, I was just about to head to bed! Then bam the notification came…. Been excited for this episode

[@LifeWithChase]

Enjoyed the video, I was afraid you were going to have some warpage, I might would have tack welded some strong backs on and cut them loose after. Even then I would have been concerned, I've seen large I beams and 1" plate warped! but overall I think they came out very well! Trying to control warping and heat input is half the battle on something like that. A trick to help draw it back is to heat The opposite side with a rosebud or large tip and let it cool. The metal expands when heated but contracts more than it expands when it cools...

[@j.c.smithprojects]

i braced and clamped the other one past flat so that when the weld pulled, it would end up flat. between that and only doing 6" at a time, it seemed to work well.30

[@LifeWithChase]

@@j.c.smithprojects Good deal. Now that you know how much the weld draws, the next set will be easy!

[@sixtoes2313]

Do they have Bluetooth ear plugs telling you what setting (Job) the gun is on ?? What a cool welder.

The machine beeps ( ones, twice or three times) corresponding to which job it is in. Not sure if the camera picked it up but its is audible when standing in the shop

On that particular machine in this particular program 95ar 5o2 is about 1.3 or 1.4 volt too hot. The program is made for 90ar 10co2 Also some schools of thought and some textbooks start to go away from using welding gas with oxygen in it … something about grain structure and premature weld failures 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
