[@jtoker9758]

Please don't ever stop making videos. They are all such high quality. We all appreciate what you do!

[@bazza10198]

i learned to tig in colledge because there were no mig stations left i sat on your channel for weeks trying to pick up what to do..... that was 2011 honestly i picked up more from your channel than i ever did from any instructor i still hobby tig and to this day still dont know how to mig or stick thank you for you continuing content

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

You have the best, most clear and vivid arc video I have seen! Thank you for all you teach us!

[@dariobanos4217]

Dear sir: excuse my bad english i am from argentina and i only speak spanish but i want to say you thank you very much...i cannot understand all what you say but the videos are very clear and help me a lot. Thank you again

[@woodenhead8887]

Drinking my coffee preparing to go weld an 8’ section on 4” pipe onto the end of my flag pole and this pops up. Solid tips Jody, I’ll try to apply them here in a bit!

[@weldingtipsandtricks]

Good luck!

[@ludewigo94]

I ain’t got much time to be in the shop at the moment because I have to prepare for my pipe fitter test so watching your videos definitely helps to as always learn a lot of new things and also bridge the time until I can get back to welding. Keep up the good work sir!

[@theadventuresofbellaandjos6435]

I miss welding, this is the only test i never get, i was practicing and im pretty sure i will pass just like, all the other, all the way to 4g, ur videos helped me pass all my certifications, thanks master for dhearing ur knoldge, for all those who still on school dont waste time bur rods so u dont regret it.

[@Bodydrop6969]

I know this might seem like an easy job because you make it look that way but it is NOT. PLEASE! Keep these awesome videos coming for all us people this stuff is magic! Awesome videos!

[@Michagan_outdoorsman_James]

well jody i finally got my forever welder now. i had recently purchased a cheeper unit and was really digging it. Aguy i had bought a table from a few months back had reached out to me about selling his machine. it is a miller syncrowave 210 it only had 2hr and 12mins on the timer. i could not pass it up. i absolutely love it

[@ЯрославГальмуев]

Сам работаю сварщиком и тем не менее всегда с удовольствием смотрю видео с премудростями в моей профессии!!

[@papaduck2443]

Jody, that was an awesome video! I really enjoy when you do mig videos because thats the kind of welding I do right now. Thank you for taking the time to make a great video about mig welding.

[@weldingtipsandtricks]

Thanks 👍

[@ВладиславШимков-х8ш]

​@@weldingtipsandtrickshello, tell me how do you like the Optrel 2.0 mask, is it worth buying? 

[@gasclutch6280]

He really flexed by showing us his perfect results at the end ! I’m 19 and taking welding course. Currently intermediate stick rn but later will be taking flux, tig and mig. I want my welds to look like this! Any advice??

[@zenobiuskondo4200]

Great teaching, very clear and easy to follow, i've bee welding for morre than 30 years, but never learn the profetional one, with your tutorial, i will start all over again, never late to learn! God bless you.

[@scottroberts3158]

a timely video for me, I'm currently welding out a heap of fabricated lobsterback 36 inch diameter schedule 10 elbows for a water pipeline with MIG, but we're welding the root from the inside downhill, back grinding and then running the fill and cap uphill on the outside of the pipe, a few of the guys are running a standard CV MIG in short circuit, one of the guy's is running a Lincoln STT, and I'm running a Fronius TPS2700 on pulse. I'd love to see a video with you running pulse MIG out of position, I tried the three setups, and found I was able to run fairly hot and fast uphill with the Fronius on pulse, 480 IPM and 25 volts for the downhill root from the inside of the pipe, 440 IPM and 24 volts from 6-9 o'clock, and 600 IPM and 27 volts from 9-12 o'clock doing the fill and cap in one pass, I'm finding if a do a back and forward whip coming up from 6-9, coming forward and then back it fill in and wet it out, and from 9-12 just push it uphill a bit as if its running a flat bead it come out with a very nice profile and looks like it was welded flat.

[@kwstas407]

Congratulations for your good work and all the tips and the help that you give...i would like to ask a favour...can you explain the diagram on the door of the welders...i cant understand it..i work the most times with e7018....but when its time to weld with mig it takes me a lot of time to set up...i would prefer to know approximately the settings so i can set up again the welder for my preferences.

[@tntltl]

Love your videos I watch almost everyone. Stay healthy and all the best for you and your family.

[@mitchbolan5184]

Love the videos Jody, also the Tig finger is one of the best things I have brought for welding. Greetings from Australia

[@weldingtipsandtricks]

Thanks 👍

[@Genxpoppy]

QUESTION, I was watching a video of yours is there a way to make a pedal to cut power but not loose argon coverage at end of weld. In my head I'm thinking ING yes simple, guess I want someone else to try first...

[@ryannesbitt3300]

This was like my first welding job outta high school. 2 -- 4 inch pipe for natural gas meters but almost verything was done on a turn table.

[@doughboy5840]

That's a good gig lol. Especially on MIG

[@hunterlenke4264]

when doing this could you do like a semi circle instead of a rainbow like going up have the open side going up

[@davidpupu]

Hi jody. Quick question. Is it posible to weld 5 thou stainless steel sheet / shim. It to a belt ?

[@juancarloscalderoncastillo508]

Muy buena tecnica y excelente acabado compañero,mi pregunta es porque se detuvo en plena subida eso esta permitido en las normas de tuberia api y asme?

[@TylerDickey1]

One test is worth 100 opinions. Wise words!

[@jacobflores7621]

Recently purchased an Everlast MTS 275, I purchased your Furick alley #5 aluminum kit. Looking forward to using that for some jobs at home. Love your channel, love your store 💪🏼

[@infowave9654]

That optrel helmet makes a huge difference on visibility 👍

[@johansjoblom1395]

Hello, a question, when should we NOT be on the "leading edge of the puddle" when MIG welding

[@Subway1427]

Were you using the heavier duty tips and nozzle for this test? Just looked a little bigger than the standard nozzle that comes with ESAB 205

[@Apphus144]

What Maching Are You Running? Also, Do You Use Chill/Backing Rings..?

[@raymondjolly9230]

I am practicing to take a UA 85 test this info was very helpful, thanks

[@jeepwk6.5L]

Wouldn't this be the ua12w?

[@deborahsmith4116]

A quick question, please. I went through your MIG welding series and have tried many of the techniques and practice items. My question concerns welding thin wall 4130 chrome-moly tubing, such as that used in homebuilt aircraft fuselages and empennage structures. Historically these were gas welded (oxyacetylene) or TIG. The tubing wall thicknesses are (generally 0.028/0.035/0.049/0.058.. I'd like to MIG weld the structures if possible (some manufactures use a MIG process). Using your charts it appears for the 0.035 wall thickness the settings would be 35 amps and 70 ips... does that sound about right? Any recommendations or comments?Thanks!

[@ramonochoa5807]

That camera is awesome ! It projects on my screen clearly. No joke

[@KonstantinMironov-c4j]

Good evening. Hello from Russia! Thank you for your video. Your welding channel is one of the best on youtube. Tell me about the setting, amps are of interest and not the feed rate.

[@KonstantinMironov-c4j]

uphill, downhill. overhead.

[@JFerreira95]

I Love: 08:40. Thanks Jody! God bless you.

[@59wargear]

Jody why isn't pulse mig used in pipe welding?

[@Sawdust65]

On my Millermatic 210 the wire speed is just a setting, not and actual IPM. Is there a way to calculate actual wire speed? Same for voltage. How many volts is the #4 setting?

[@crawfs83]

Really enjoy watching your videos

[@lucianbadea5645]

Hello sir! I watched all your videos . I really appreciate what you are doing for us. This ESAB welder is very nice and i was wandering how this is comparing with FORNIUS TRANSTEEL 2200. Did you had the chance to use that machine? I heard only good things about is . I wish you all the best!!

[@Boroboro231]

Realmente es una excelente muestra de como realizar una buena prueba en tubería Saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴 mi amigo sigo tu canal aunque no hablo ingles, pero tú contenido es muy instructivo.

[@glenainsworth-price5259]

Interesting, on my place we just blast a root in with positioner 1.5 mm landing 3 tacs 120 degrees to hold it then do a Christmas tree kinda pattern for cap basically move across right to left move up to the middle of you root small triangle move back to the right make sure you hold on the edge as not to undercut then go across to the left half thickness over your first bead as it rolls.

[@snakeeyes7751]

Im right paw ....but my right eye is so weak...not like the left one....so i jave problem in bottom...i cant see with the right eye....any helps here ?

[@nickhamilton5814]

I really want to get an Optrel Crystal 2.0! Are they pretty good? I'm currently using a Lincoln Electric Viking which is great as well.

[@nimrodhernandez8041]

Is it correct to weld a process pipe or a pressure vessel in an upward direction instead of a rising one?

[@ashperlumbag65]

Welding master! Finally! 😍😍😍

[@BigCatRiverFishing]

Where can I find the pad you are wearing on your glove? I’ve looked on the website and can’t find. Thanks for all the advice! I’ve learned a lot! It’s really helped me become a much better welder.

[@paulgilroy7647]

great video!what thickness of landing edge did you use in the pipe?Also can do the same test with 1.0mm wire?Thanks

[@Nash_-gf7ob]

This is the level of skill i strive to achieve

[@kevinhancock4064]

Brill work always fancied a welder but still unsure whether tig or mig is best option tig sounds complicated with the air etc and other components

[@davemaciel1391]

Jody, You have awesome videos. I have learned so much from you. Keep up the great work. There is one thing I have not hit right on the nail and that is the black soot when the arc starts when using my miller 210 welder. I don't see any soot or black gas marks on your videos. Any advice?

[@juanborrego9133]

I have an old craftsman arc welder 35-125 ac amp 220v and an airco wire feeder , how can i conect the wire feeder to my arc welder ?

[@BernardoJara-v7t]

Mire el vídeo fue genial yo tanto tiempo soldando y hoy veo como se tiene que usar la máquina para una calidad de soldadura

[@kuchojoe500]

We learn every day...keep it up

[@noelmartin4723]

Just wondering what diameter wire are you using .8 or 1mm

[@bishipc117]

Hey Jodie. Hope all is going good thank you for the videos. So you mentioned that you were dialing in your settings so that you didn’t have any spatter. Is that the best practice for welding. Dialing in your settings so that you have no spatter. I have it all the time. And where can I get the etching solution. Do you sell it at your store? Thanks again

[@weldingtipsandtricks]

I try to find settings that produce little or no spatter but the end result is the main thing...sometimes I will tolerate spatter to get a flatter weld going uphill. the etching solution is a passivation solution designed for stainless. not sure where to get it these days but ferric chloride pcb etchant from amazon also works pretty well for carbon steel. wear nitrile gloves and ppe if you use it

[@robertwaltersagbayyumbla7150]

Hey Jody. Great vid as always. Could you also do a mig vid in the 6g position with 6" sch80 pipe, mild/mild or better mild/stainless. I was asked to do a procedure qualifcation test for my company but i'm struggling on this one. It's always bulky and just doesn't look good. Greetings from Germany

Which size of wire is good for uphill

[@juancarloscalderoncastillo508]

Mi pregunta es con que codigo trabajan que el pase de raiz lo hacen en forma descendente, sera Api ,asme?? Y luego lel rell no y el cordon de acabado ascendente.... Aqui en latino América cuando es progresion ascendente todo es asi desde raiz jasta acabado y lo mismo va para descndente.... Por eso mi pregunta.

[@leonhough5932]

Iv been practicing some groove welds on plate and my root keeps coming out convex. Iv done it two times. I am able to fill it out and put the cap on pretty well. The first one u did I had the settings too hot and the gap was two big. I used a 1/8 inch spacer the second time and went down on the volts. Then it looked too cold and was still convex some areas. Could anyone help me with this? Also in using .030 wire and was wondering if that would make any difference. Im gonna give it another shot hopefully soon when I get the chance

[@mikeford963]

The root is convex on the back side? Or concave? If it's convex, just a little over flat, that's ok, good even. If it's concave, sunk a little below flush, that's not good. Lack of reinforcement. The hot/fill passes should shrink the root to make it convex. If not, slow down. Using .030 wire, you either need to step up the feed speed(which controls your heat, not your voltage), or slow down more than you think.
