WELDING REPADS 6010 ROOT 7018 OUT FUN BUILD LEARNING

Welding on a long neck flange with a repad. Iv never done this is the feild so here is my first one ever with 7018. In the shop many years ago I built hundreds of vessels with repads much larger and smaller then this. We would do them with METALCORE and hardwire mig. Never ever did one with stick so this was fun. I also never had to do it in position. I always had them on a roller to make it flat and a perfect weld. Most of the time I'd say 99% of the time I had to do a lace weld on them with hardwire which I want to make a video of and show you how I did that. Not sure if they are done like that anymore. But I will still show you. It will have to be a arc shot video to show you the perfection of it. I will get to the arc shots but right now is all teaching without. So follow along and listen up to the followed and advised steps.

Awesome videos man. Thanks for not adding the unnecessary music. Your detailed commentary is gold for us learning (and your motivational tips!)

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Thank you

[@drumtwo4seven]

This is one of my favorite welding videos ever. Seriously, this is bad ass start to finish. Good stuff! 👍

[@tmackinator]

You have to love welding to watch 1/2 hr of melting metal, I watched the whole vid. There is always something to learn.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

🙏👨‍🏭🔥

[@imwhatim7259]

Same here I have watched whole video, because each and every word is important information

[@patrickfarley8036]

Amen! They say a picture is worth 1000 words. I got more out of watching this than reading chapters out of any book on the subject!

[@TheWeldProfessor]

@@patrickfarley8036 thank you got tons more coming

[@MrBen527]

Nice work! But I don't know how these guys do this all day everyday. I like to weld occasionally but this would be way too tedious for me.

[@sambutera3898]

I have 40yrs in this trade and have seen a lot of welders you are at the top . Stay humble and kept burning and kept up these videos

[@rbivns]

I love have you take your time to like each comment. Thanks for sharing this with us. Very respectable that you take a pride in what you do. So many of us don’t... You sir have golden hands, wish you all the best!

[@omaressadiki8399]

Thank u so much we learn a loooooot with u 🙏😇 continue pls

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Absolutely

[@juliosantos9289]

I was a welder for about 11 years but gave it up because it started to mess up my vision. I still love the process and watched this entire video and it brought back a lot of memories. I agree with Joe I was always my hardest critic when I would weld and a welding instructor told me once, " As long as it's up to code with the job your good." We welded jobs that required full penetration welds that were later inspected and all the failures were because of porosity and improper cleaning between passes. I would concentrate more on that than the appearance. That comes with experience. Keep burning and pay those bills!

[@dentasla]

Dood!!! You have Helped Me more than Anything I so dagum appreciate this. I gotta buy a new grinder today.....Much Love. Thanks

[@TheWeldProfessor]

I'ma teach all I know for you guys

[@garyteague4480]

[@kylivia1222]

We finished up some 20" saddles off some 42" cooling tower stuff and it looks beautiful this video is what it takes to learn more and show others thanks for everything you do WELDLIFE=GOODLIFE

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Great life ❤👨‍🏭🔥

[@colecleary7301]

Hey Professor, I'm a recent grad from a trade college in Canada, ON. Just wanted to let you know it's awesome you make these videos! Also, I wanted to let you know that trade colleges use videos like this in class as examples, I've seen a few videos in class of you, bob moffat, and the guys on weldtube. Being able to see someone fit and weld something out in order, before attempting it yourself really helps out! I would like to be able to see the arc shots better though, like see the puddle. Keep up the good work, your a great welder.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Thank you. I will add them soon. I'm just getting started. Got a film crew joining me soon.

[@brahimimiryam1312]

Vous un champion

[@nicholasbarba3022]

Prof this is one of your best instructional vids, fill with copious explanations on what, how and why you are doing what you do instead of just watching you burn rod. I learned alot. thanks

Am a fan of mig/mag there is where I perform my magic but this video makes me fall in love with sticks welding its nice I will to experience I knows how to weld with sticks but as good as this guy

[@michaelgraves2301]

I like that at least he was honest about his mistakes I'm an ironworker doing hospitals adding additions like 5th 6th and 7th floors small-time welding nothing like this it was interesting enjoyed the video thanks buddy

👍👍👍👍IRONHEADZ

[@warped-sliderule]

Refreshing to see the workmanship, drive to improve, and the tenacity it takes to come up in the welding trade. A rare commodity in the present generation, where instant gratification and excuses rule. We need more with an attitude like this skilled welder, many more...

[@mikemcguire8351]

Nice, from an old retired union steamfitter. Carry on.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

🤘

[@billarroo1]

Real knowledge, and the ability to express it to us, Really Great Video, keep it up, best video on the tube. Thanks William.

[@deanhubbard9599]

Very nicely done. I am learning from youtube videos and appreciate quality videos like this one.

[@Joe-nn7gb]

Awesome job sir. As a welder you're own weld never seems perfect could always be better. Keep burning rod bud....

[@TheWeldProfessor]

So true 😂🔥👨‍🏭❤

[@xavierrivera9548]

I like watching these kind of videos because you show step by step helps me learn how to do it the correct way instead of trying to figure it out (Thanks) man...

[@miguelroldan5763]

Good morning aweson ceri nice worck cling and nice a good profecional jobs.

[@jameshowe5051]

Awesome job, you Sir are very good at your craft!!!

[@erectusmaximus5958]

Loved this video Brotha , a lot of good tips for some of us novice hobby welders . I ran my own auto/ diesel repair and diagnostics service Corp.in AZ for over 17 yrs. During that course I occasionally needed to weld things. Never got trained just learned as I went along. Asked many machine shops and others on how to weld cast iron and was shocked people telling me it couldn't be done. So 1 of my early customers was a US veteran and journeyman pipefitter . He had just retired and taught me how to do cast iron welding with those crazy expensive rods specifically for it. Was around 2002 . Still recall his lessons like it was yesterday. Short welds and ping the ends . Long welds will result in cracks. Always ping the shit outta it he made clear . Look forward to all your Vids TC 👍🏼🔥🔥

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Machine shops are hella dope

[@arosswelding]

Very nice. Nice job fellas. 👌😎

[@welder2095]

Born for welding👍God bless you & your fami✌

[@badass98kx250]

Your videos are very educational and very professional thanks for sharing your skill

[@loseyourlife4042]

Check, double check, triple check, great video 👊🏻

[@Kevin.L_]

Better than anything on TV! Thanks for sharing.

[@samzaiko2851]

I'm about to be going to school for welding and really nervous about learning all the processes besides stick I got to open root in high school for it but watching welding videos I see I got so much more to learn

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Definitely alot ro know

[@NeoFX1]

sam zaiko I 100% recommend going to school for welding. At my school I’m getting an associates degree but besides that it’s a 16 month course 4 semesters 4 months each but I love it. I’ve never made such a great decision before, I welded stick and then tig to try it out there and I loved it and never ever regretted anything about welding. Have fun and there is definitely a lot to learn. I’m just now doing pipe in my 3rd term.

[@KS-jz8by]

Very informative video there are a ton of things to learn from pipe welding no matter if your on the pipe line or doing other pipe work there will always be something new to learn!

[@LynnHarris18]

Prof, your step by step vid and the explanation is awesome. This is how individuals learn. You have become the #1 Welding Videos on U Tube. You are the Professor.... Best Wishes.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Awe man that means so much thank you. I respect that. Doing my best trying to separate myself from the rest of the channels

[@sledsports]

Great job my friend. You are teaching some of less experienced. That speaks volumes about you as a person. Great guy, great knowledge, a great instructor. Thank you for sharing you knowledge. You have mad skills brother.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Thank you appreciate you

[@dr.feelgood2358]

yeah that undercut is a bummer...still much better than i would do. this is good information for people starting out, or trying to get better. decades of experience is the only way to be a master, and even then there's always more to learn!

[@terminatah500]

Great job young man. Thanks for carrying on the welding tradition.

[@hansel498]

Hi wally im from south africa.Im a pipe welder.Thank you so so much i love your vidz and learn from them cheers👍👍

[@waynehowlett9424]

Like that you are showing flanges and fittings and fitting from start to finish great job.

[@timebert6141]

You are a very good weldor but never stop being your own toughest critic and never stop chasing the perfect weld. These things keep you hungry and improving. Stay sharp brother man!

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Always and never thank you appreciate you

[@TheSmileyTek]

I'm a senior piping designer and I watched the whole video, lol. I don't even weld, but it's good to learn a little bit to improve my design. I've seen a ton of welds, and the only perfect weld I've ever seen were orbital lol. Those beads look good to me bro.

[@NickFrom1228]

7018. Gotta love that sticky rod. Used to hate it back when running the old Lincoln Idealarc 350 box. My inverter box runs it like a dream.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

It's not bad

[@IanCC220]

These kinds of videos are that good good man. Thank you for the insight

[@ForeGodofSkin]

Take that as a no lol ?

[@wingsstringsandreallysharp2535]

Thank you for making these videos. It is so fun and gratifying getting to watch someone, highly skilled, practicing their craft. I don’t think I would ever be able to do what you are doing but it’s cool to see how the pro’s do it!

[@blayze7306]

awesome video, i like the fact you don't hide that things you might mess up on or aren't up to your standards. Super respectable man

[@ericrice8793]

Extremely well done.

[@angelaprater2679]

A lot of time setting it up and fill welding I like it thought you did real good look nice and clean.

I absolutely love your detailing and not to forget the finishing

[@larrybrigance1324]

Awesome man. Glad to see people shooting for perfection on that last past. Always killin it!

[@antoniow1825]

This is real world welding youngin’s sometimes you gotta live to fight another day . Not about not taking pride in your work , sometimes “ good enough “ has to work just for time constraints but this is still very good , quality craftsmanship. Nice job 👍🏾

[@cidicley3162]

I am from Brazil. You did a good job

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Thank you

[@wendellapache5269]

Alot of good information. I like when you explained the 7018 moving in an upward weld, not down cause of slagging. Cool🙂

[@TheWeldProfessor]

It's all truth gotta show it all not just skip ahead

[@johnbrady7431]

Production welded for a little while. Have wanted to get into real stuff since. Thanks for the instruction! You do a great job with both your beads and content! Keep it up and thank you!

[@edwardcruz5187]

definitely liked it , would like to see more, potentially add a back story of location and why you are there. looked like you was in a shop of sorts

[@marcomartinez3263]

Watching your videos makes me wanna get out of retirement and getting myself a nice arc welder big enough to burn 1/4” steel. Yeah, I’ll do that. Super clean welds my friend, keep on trucking.

[@terrminatoragain461]

Great to see someone else that realizes, how much a level is their friend, excellent video, thanks

[@S0lidStewie]

Thank you Wally for sharing, specially since I work in a heat exchangershop 👍👍👍

Hi!! I’m from Brazil!! I very like work your work with welding!!

Much respect 👨‍🏭

[@Daniel-yb7wj]

Yeah, I can definitely see the artist. Maybe showcase some of that metal art when you get a chance. I enjoy watching Barbie the welder and she turned me on to the metal art scene.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Yeah she is BA

[@reytiosejo3012]

Thats a profesional move, nice welding techniques.

[@TheWeldProfessor]

Thank you 🙏

[@feltcherable]

again the technique an control through each step is paramount for absolute success , lovin the goodness

[@xblizbroke]

Great video. Almost makes me feel like I could do it even though I've only done butt joints and flanges. It makes me really miss burning rods since I work production and mostly only get to use the squirt gun unless I get to fire up the TIG for SOME stainless or aluminum orders. You don't have the fancy camera gear or the lensed arc shots but you more than make up for it with knowledge, passion, and positive attitude!

[@mduduzipercywell350]

Thanks for more practice with my eyes wich can makes me good when I reach there.

[@sugerbear6544]

Thanks for being straight up, show your skill and see who will pick up on it. Your style is appreciated. - canada

Right on thank you. Just some knowledge I have to pass a long. I dont know it all but what I got ima share it all.

Great 👍🏽 you are and the video is well done. Now I cannot wait to burn my next box of rods.

[@sanity1977]

Great step by step how to. Informative video. End result was phenomenal. Keep up the great work 👍

[@randyramer7988]

Stacking beads, have to love it, turned out great.

[@JonDingle]

Superb video! Why superb? 1,No music (too many uploaders of videos use music) so I had to the chance to absorb and think about what you were showing us all. 2, You gave us step by step processes. 3, Good camera work. 4, Clear commentary.5, We got to see minor errors and rods sticking! More of same please young man!

Thank you

[@jpcourtney1217]

It was an extremely interesting video. I learn a alot from watching it thank u . I would love to see more videos like this. Keep doing what u are doing

[@BlitzvogelMobius]

I miss stick welding since finishing welding school. So far my only welding job has been 99.99% FCAW, and we weren't really welding all that much because so much time was spent on fitup and other assembly duties. Have an interview tomorrow for a new job that I was told will probably be soldering mostly, with some welding work on the side (hopefully TIG). But it was always sorta relaxing with my back up against the wall in the welding booth at school, laying out 6010 roots in grooves and filling 'er up with 7018 while jamming to some thrash metal.

[@kalebfrancis6688]

I reall learn alot from this guy

[@TheWeldProfessor]

That is what it's all about.
