If you were taught to weld your sheet metal panels together with stacked tacks or jumping all over the panel you are causing more work for yourself. Long continuous welds are the key to keeping your panels nice and straight during the welding process and makes hammering out any minor distortion a breeze.

If "professional" nickels and dimes welders did a straight through weld like you did..... I wonder how well they'd do. Beautiful heat pattern.... like a machine did it. After watching your process and justification for doing so, I wonder about the guys that don't have the tools you do. Is the backyard welder/car dude better off with just slowly welding spots, or stitches? I love watching you do what you do, but some guys just have a welder, grinder, hammer and dolly. I have two of those, and a welder isn't one of them. 😁 ....asking for a friend. 😉 Once again, that weld was beautiful.

I was trained as a welder in Job Corp. First class was torch welding... Oxy/acetylene Welding, is almost exactly like tig welding. Just a different heat source. We had to certify in gas welding before moving on to arc. Chapped my hide at the time Glad I had that training now. Great looking work man . Dimes are for dumb ass es

4:18 Lower amps is likely a longer period of time where heat is applied as well- which actually is more heat travel and more heat deformation in my somewhat little experience.

I agree with your method. When I was a sheet metal model maker apprentice back in the 1970's, that is how we were taught. I have arc, mig and tig welders in my shop today, and I rarely roll out my mig welder.I just don't care for it. The control on the tig process is so good you can control warpage much more than mig. This was a really good video, thank you.

Love the content. You are spot on about TIG welding. Hard to beat a Miller syncrowave TIG welder. I use the same welder at work but I use the TIG button on the torch handle instead of a foot pedal. I feel more stable with both feet on the floor and still have all the control at my finger tip. Great point that nobody sees a pretty weld once it is finished out. Your heat control is great, It is easy to set the heat but you have to be able to keep a consistent speed. Your fit up skills are obvious seeing such a consistent heat zone. All the pieces coming together, quality parts, fit up, weld preparation, excellent finished panel. Frank

I find also that what everyone fails to explain is that when you are welding, no matter what the process, is that when you are adding any kind of hot filler metal, when it cools it will shrink causing more distortion. Just keep that in mind. And yes Tig is the absolute best for the least amount of warpage, also the welders experience.

Ive always heard you say this and I’ve seen it first hand on low crown panels especially. You can visibly see the inconsistent distortion from starting/stoping in the middle of the panel. You’ll see a very consistent slightly raised area from the weld then a little pucker right where the start or stop occurred.

I would submit that when all we had was oxyacetylene welding there was a greater chance of warpage of sheet metal and the need for tacking and hammering metal was necessary, But, with the Tig welding process we can concentrate an amount of heat in a smaller area as shown by the heat strip of about one inch. So, we have better technology available to people in today's world than before when all we had was oxyacetylene and stick welding along with a gas cutting torch to do our work. This was a good technical presentation. And your explanation was spot on.
@JackWilson327
@JackWilson327 4 ай бұрын
The root of the shrinkage, correct me if I am wrong, is that we get most metal in its rolled state. Clean sheet is cold rolled. So there are stresses in it. Once it’s heated, as you say, we allow the molecules to go back to their annealed state, which as you say is more compact. Hammering expands it or creates a push v a pull. Right? So it offsets the pull of the weld. Welds of course lay in hot and expanded. When they cool they shrink, of course. That can be used to pull things in too. I’m not as good as you are by any means! I have had some luck with ideas like you are putin’ down. Right on! Thanks for confirming!
@rshotty9039
@rshotty9039 4 ай бұрын
it all plays into it. in actual matters, your adding metal in a molten state and as it cools it changes. thats really where the most warp comes from. if you could figure out how to weld without any heat then you essentially wouldn't warp at all. the filler metal is introduced to the base material in a liquid state (expanded at its most) and then as it cools it will get smaller. simple facts. he covers this but does a bit of mental gymnastics around that core principle thats been scientifically proven by industry experts for years. there's absolutely no way around this core principle

In training to weld it was shown we have filler on hand but progress fusing the sheet edges together with filler only to add material reducing flame effect on the parent metal. I accept your style as a better method, just the way you tell & show ! Being a mere human myself, I try to use a backing strip of panel steel; as a heat sink to compensate for my fallible application.

The heat sink is not helping you at all. it may be hurting you. The heat sink pull the heat out meaning you need to run more amps to get good penetration. more amps means larger HAZ.

I agree with your technique , you have a good understanding of the forces at play. One of the techniques I like to use when welding flat panels with the TIG welder is hammer welding. It used to be fairly common back when we torch welded everything. Not sure if you're familiar with it but it's where you weld for an inch or two, then iron it out while it's still very hot, red hot if you can, then repeat the process down the panel. It takes practice to be really good at it but when you're done all the stresses are out and the welds are flat. It takes a small amount of clean up after that. I got my first TIG welder over 40 years ago and realized quickly how nice it was to weld sheet metal.

well presented information Mike, where I struggle is at the final finish stage. The line between hammering the metal enough to be straight or stretching it too much for me is difficult to gauge. the other one I have trouble with is when the panel is 90% there but full of dimples baffles me too. its as if metal has hardened and won't flatten out for me, the result is I hit it too hard and stretch it into an "oil can" effect and end up back where I started. once again well done, good presentation

At the moment I use a MIG machine as… that’s all I have etc…. I did two restoration courses with a company that restores and builds Jaguar XK150’s it was my first experience of working metal… They had MIG machines there …they mentioned them…but only taught TIG welding whilst working panels. So that where I started. Welding panels requires the right fitment mention here… we didn’t use filler rod at all. Not sure if that was the next step forwards but ‘Bruce’ the guy who taught us(along with his late father) was an advocate of tight fitment. His father (a coach build since the late 40’s) was a wizard with the hammers and their skills together were quite frankly awe inspiring! I must admit I was out of my depth compared to some other students(some have been in metal shaping for several years professionally) which was obvious from their ability to achieve stuff much quicker than I. As expensive as my two weeks were on those two course(back to back) the amount of knowledge gained was well worth it. I really need to get back into TIG.

I guess that you went to Contour Autocraft in the UK. I went there about 10 years ago and met Bruce and his father. Sad to hear that the father had died. Mike in Germany

This works for mig too, sort of. I use .030 and the welder pretty hot and after tacking in place like you did run tacks with a 25% overlap waiting for them to just flash off from molten before setting the next one down, Its quick on and off the trigger move over a bit and repeat not stopping from edge to edge. Gets a more consistent heat zone but not as even as yours with tig. I started doing this to avoid pin holes I kept getting from jumping around. Certainly more finish work with mig but when its what you have you work with it. Love the channel, keep it up and you'll be at 150k subs in no time.

Wow great video, I really appreciate you doing these. I try to do good work , but I was at a shop that was more about the fastest one is the best. So I got scolded while the cave and pave guys got the atta boy and Pat on the back. I quit because of those reasons. I still want to get into quality work . So your videos are very helpful and inspiring thank you

All I gave is a mig. But have seen the guys who do fine body work use tig.

Tig really is the best solution to sheet metal welding if you have access to one

Agreed! TIG is far superior to MIG in almost all situations BUT, it take a lot more skill in both the fit up and the actual welding.

Great content, your comment on fit up being so important was spot on. Being the tool whore that I am I always enjoy seeing the right machine for the job, unfortunately I just dont do enough shaping to justify it.

Its also quicker to weld all at once you can space them out can but you have to planish them in between which is just a pain and time consuming and you still get little waves anyway

Great instruction. Yes, “row of nickels” is not the “perfect” weld. Technically, it’s better without any ripple.

Hi thank you for the video it was very helpful. One thing I am curious to see as I am new to Tig ,is what the back of a weld like this should look like . Thank you
@cornfieldcustoms
@cornfieldcustoms 4 ай бұрын
The back should just have at least 100% if not more penetration. so you know the seam is solid
