Welding Overhead 5/32" 7018

[@Same1673]

Boilermaker for 25 years I can say I’m pretty good at welding, but want to thank you guys for video, many young people want to start welding and this kind of video are like good nuggets. Always good to help the next generation.

[@shaneeubanks6396]

Self taught in my truck shop. Thanks for all your videos, especially upside down, and tig. I do all my own fabricating. Very much appriciated. Your help has changed my life. Sincerely thank you!!

[@gordjohnson70]

Beautiful welding. Jody, you have improved my welding an awful lot and I have welded for years. When I started years ago, very little instruction was given. I pretty much had to teach myself. Doing that, I developed a few bad habits. Like many other self taught welders I passed my methods along to others. I hope they are watching your videos too.

[@sr.enriquen7925]

Been doing nothing bit aluminum tig on mostly 1/8 to 3/8 ... I miss stick welds...specially overhead... just watching makes me happy....thanks

[@t.s.racing]

The TALENT, SKILL, and KNOWLEDGE is pure mind boggling GENTLEMEN, thank you. Jodi, you have helped me over the years in more ways than you'll ever know. I had to repair weld the frame on my Harley Dyna Superglide, a flat plate beneath the left side cover that mount the electrics. This plate is welded at the factory and connects to main backbone of the frame. Thanks to you and your videos, I was able to 7018, vertical up, all without removing the wire harness as well. 5000 miles later, all is well, the weld looks factory and has held up perfectly. At 61 years old my eyes aren't the best, and my hands are not steady either. I built the engine on my Harley and it makes more than TWICE the factory horsepower and torque on a rear wheel dyno, so the frame and its stress points get quite a workout. I use and love my small ESAB 160 INVERTER, yes made in China. Thanks again to you I'm getting a tig torch with a gas valve and willbe scratch start tig welding with the little yellow lunchbox. GOD BLESS you Sir, SARGE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Good stuff 🔥

[@waterboy8999]

Jody not only are you a fine welding teacher, but fine example of a teacher, or how to teach, teachers of other skills should take note.

[@mikephillips8538]

5/32 * 7018 Three pass * Overhead * Fill-It Weld My first time ever seeing such a thing and this is teaching me good knowledge. I also been hearing the podcast and was recently listening to the show with Bob Maffatt. Great welder talk and info.

[@nickbesserer]

Its fillet weld, not "fill-it" weld, lol

[@SteadArcFab_Ministries]

Thanks Andrew and Jody. Beautiful welds and video shots! Thanks guys. Be blessed!!!

[@job38four10]

Yes welding round is harder, everything you say is spot on and that weld was excellent!!!!

[@stevewarner8880]

Another good one Jody. Andrew does a great job. I hope you haven’t retired Jody! Show us your magic again. If your like me I can’t see well enough to do the things I know how to do. Have a great day! 😎

[@jayb2257]

Great video and tips about rod angle, arc length and bead progression

[@maritimefreak9241]

This is clearly an excellent bead. I am sure it will conform to the NDT requirements. Lovely job, brother. Looking forward to more such useful information through your nice videos.

[@MRSTEEL-fd7eg]

Jodi your videos always amazes me. Another great video thank you. @ Jody you should run for president ! Jodi 2020.......

[@AZ-kr6ff]

I find that running the second pass on the top rather than the bottom makes it come out much nicer.

[@oldironsfury]

I have welded 7018 upside down, I just started stick welding this year back around May 2019, watching the flux puddle fall off always screws with my following of the puddle. I don’t see any flux drip while you guys are doing this weld. About 160 amps on 1/2” mild plate . Maybe I’m not moving the stick fast enough or maybe too. Love watching pros, man does my lower jaw fall 👍👍

[@MAYDAYDEEJAY]

..I mean FknG WoW Andrew ! I'm not a welder in any shape or form, just occasionally every now and then I like to set up a joint for myself and burn box of rods on Saturday. Two weeks ago I was doing overhead and vertical up, and man... Your beads look like You're about 275 years of arc-time more experienced than I am :) All the best from Scotland

[@weldtroll2602]

Listen up, this was faked! #1 at 3:14 there is a TON of porosity...How is that even possible with 7018? Why has nobody addressed this?!! #2 AND you used the same footage at 3:49 but called it a new one... RLY?! #3 You can clearly see that the weld is sagging big time, yet it's perfect when you show it cleaned up. It's pretty obvious that you welded the top side in flat to get a pretty bead and showed that and told us it was overhead. Expected more from this channel. UNSUBSCRIBED and THUMBS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@andycardin4986]

Hey Mark, thanks for the feedback. It takes alot of practice to become steady and know what to look for. Keep at it and you'll be showing me a thing or two! Keep it real in Scotland laddie!

[@ابوعبدالرحمان-ظ4ي]

Thank you, Professor, for translating it into Arabic, and I am sincerely following you

[@tntltl]

Andrew is an artist thanx for the great videos I learned so much from you Jody God bless you!!!

[@juanimuscariello]

The best of youtube!!

[@jesusgomez2006]

You are a good welder because you handle the positions very well when welding, you handle the amperages of the machine very well. When welding, they are difficult positions for, welding and tired, I also had to weld in the metal industry, mechanical, weld, in different potions, and also weld with 6010, 7024, and stainless steel, type 316, and with roll machines with hollow wire, with mixtures of, Argon gas, and co2. Best regards atte Jesús Gómez torreón coahuila Mexico

[@ALSomthin]

I love over head welding in 7018s .

[@MRTYREMULISHA]

Daaaaaamn Andrew, thats a nice bead !! the arc shots were epic to Jody cheers.

[@weldtroll2602]

The live weld and the finished weld were clearly different welds. 👎

[@prestonprince3406]

I just won one of those 210 welders at a statewide competition in Iowa. I got 1st place :)

[@lukemain4222]

What kind of competition? I'm in Iowa also.

[@prestonprince3406]

Luke Main plumbers and steam fitters local 33 in Des Moines. Competition is beginning of April. I’m graduating early in January so I don’t know if I’ll go. There’s a competition in Tulsa,OK at Tulsa Welding School April 18th that I’ll be going to. Already got the blueprints emailed so I’ll be working my butt of to perfect the project until then. 1st place is full tuition and a welder and some gear. 2nd 50% Tuition + some gear. 3rd is 25% Tuition + gear. I’ll be starting school there in June for pipe welding.

Man there a guy in the shop on my old jobs he was very good welder and did great work. Always enjoyed helping him. Plus I work in every thing and going back to iron work or my last job. But I'm happy I can do some things even just be apart of a team of concrete crew but I will fine a job just want to make sure I'm k.

Your videos are awesome man, but what would be great is a video on overhead TIG with sheet metal. This is commonly done in auto body, but I can't seem to find any videos on it. Having a real hard time with overhead TIG plug and but welds on sheet (18 gauge).

[@timjohanson1691]

Awesome video and weld. I am starting out and I'm confused about the slag part do you not clean any slag until the very end? Every time I try this I have inclusions

[@weldingtipsandtricks]

the trick is to restart quickly while things are still good and hot. also there is very little slag in the crater

[@johnknox5692]

very nice welding, very informative

[@lukemain4222]

Why do I always see stick welders using that type shield instead of a regular helmet? Is it just preference, weight, or is there a specific reason?

[@leandrocampos35]

Muito bom seus vídeos parabéns pelo seu trabalho

[@SRT92]

How you guys not shake so much overhead? I tried it like he did, and I'm no where near steady as that guy.

[@ledinhanh]

very nice

[@acyclictiger]

maybe a dumb question here, BUT why dont you just always use higher amp then tight arc on flat position aswell? is it cause bigger arc (except long arc aka high high amp) makes the weld flow out better and get bigger or why is it not "usable" in flat aswell? great video as always (sorry for the bad spelling)

[@sheikhhashim4244]

Hello sir how are you? I like your chenal or welding class.

[@gooseflatwaterfowlers]

What is a good technique of a 1/8 6010 I’m having problems with craters

[@zkemp1108]

Craters at the end of the weld? Push the rod about a 1/2 inch or so back into the puddle right before you stop. Could also be your arc isn't short enough and/or you're running too hot

[@gooseflatwaterfowlers]

Mostly on restarts and some at the end it was 1/4” I Beam root 110amps DCEP

[@zkemp1108]

@@gooseflatwaterfowlers that sounds a little hot for 1/4, maybe trying going down 5 or 10 amps and see if that helps.

[@phillhuddleston9445]

Good video, what's up with all the "home made" welding helmets lately, nothing wrong with it but I would not be able to resist painting a smile on this one making it a one eyed happy face.

[@hansolsson3409]

Thank you for a great video!

[@totalmobilesolutions4138]

I can never keep my body that steady. I'm usually doing repair type welds on machinery, trailers and such. Think you could get some content of some field repair type stuff? Even if you do it in the shop I'd still love to see it. Something dirty and not ideal, I've seen some of your cast and stainless part buildup from cracks or mismaching, always top not work. Keep the great content coming!
