    In the stick welding class I am in this semester I have spent 20 hours so far running straight beads on plate In the flat position. As tedious as it was I learned so much. Running 30+ perfectly overlapping beads that are straight as arrow with restarts/welding both directions is harder to do than actually welding a fillet or lap weld. A lot of students don’t want to just run beads for hours at a end, but at the end of the day if you can’t ran a few straight beads on top of one another your probably not going to be a decent welder.

  • @tragikk03
    @tragikk03 Před rokem

    Not much I enjoy more than sitting down and learning from an old timer who's been welding/working with steel his whole life. Every little trick I've learned as a MIG/stick welder has come from an old timer who saw I was open to taking advice and took me under their wing.
    At my first welding job, in 2 years I went from knowing just enough to get horizontal flat mig/stick certs, to doing production welding, to doing layout and fitting for handrails, to also running the shop. I blew past guys who had been there doing just welding of work fitted by other guys because I didn't get upset or argue when someone more experienced gave constructive criticism and I spent my free time asking questions and developing my skills
    I think the two things that allowed me to move up so quickly were:
    1. I assume everyone you meet has something you can learn from them (never assume you're above taking advice from someone - don't let your ego hold you back) and
    2. be proactive - If I saw something I could fix or improve, even if it was far outside my job description, I would just do it and tell my boss after it was done. (an example would be teaching myself to operate the forklifts on my lunch break when I first started - no one had time to train me and not knowing how to safely move around raw materials (shortest stuff we'd get was at least 10', most stuff was 20', so it wasn't like moving a pallet..).
    Find things you can do that show the company you have more skills to offer than what they initially hired you for - they only knew I could setup, repair and troubleshoot anything with an engine because I proved it through fixing a forklift, a few welding machines, a crane... Once they saw that I had other skills beyond apprentice-level welding they started adding responsibilities and, although my welding was beginner quality, I was basically operating as the foreman of the shop after a little over 1 year in the industry
    I got 3 pay raises in only 2 years at that company and by the time I left I was running the place (there were 3 fitters, a helper and me.. I started in the same position as the helper who had been there 10+years) - when I started there I had only been welding for 2 months

  • @eduardorosales1959
    @eduardorosales1959 Před 6 lety +1

    I’ve been watching your videos for the past few months. You are so instructive I feel like muy first time at welding will be more of a success story. I’m about your age and corners of life are turning in such a way that I need to seek a new way to earn a living. Welding and metal turning (lathe/mill) is something that really calls me, but has never laid hands on a tourchor lathe or mill. Clearly we (students) must understand that practice will build up our skills. But seeing you stack a bead on the edge with so little effort make us wonder if we could do it, leearn it. For a not young enymore person, how long should it take us to start seeing acceptable work?

    Bob, welding technology has changed considerably since I purchased my transformer based synchrowave 300 which I purchased approximately 1990.

  • @lakeschoolrestorationchann1567

    Great video. Would it be expected to see some suckback/craters on the back of a tig fillet weld on 18 to 24ga? I can weld thicker than 18ga steel/stainless with a perfect backside and perfect beads, but I have noticed when I get into 20ga and thinner I seem to have a rougher backside even with the front that is perfect. I just bought some ..045 and .035 wire to try to see if that makes a difference.

    • @wordtoyourmothership
      @wordtoyourmothership Před 6 lety +2

      I usually just use .035 for 18 gauge and under and always use an aluminium backing block (for steel and stainless at least) and if possible put 2 more on the front to keep the argon on the weld longer and minimize distortion. The backing block will keep the back side a bit neater and for the most part keep it clean.

    • @lakeschoolrestorationchann1567
      @lakeschoolrestorationchann1567 Před 6 lety

      jimjam154
      Great advice. I have never used the .035 filler so I have some high hopes it will help. Running low amperage with a 1/16th rod seemed to be tough without having the filler quench to pool to much. I have a 2x2in copper bar I could use as backing, I will have to get some aluminum and use it as you described. I am sure with a couple hours of practice I will nail it.

    • @wordtoyourmothership
      @wordtoyourmothership Před 6 lety

      Copper works better than aluminium for pulling heat away in my opinion, but aluminium will work as well. Its just what my shop has on hand since people will nab the copper.
