    Thanks for adding the 2nd camera to show amps, that's one of the pain points when trying to learn how to weld, other videos never tell us how many amps are being used.

    • @5thStreetFab
      @5thStreetFab  Před 5 lety

      Ya I still need to work on getting that second camera working the whole time. Haha ya it's hard to say how many amps you're using unless you film it, because I've always just maxed out the amperage and adjusted for it with the foot pedal

    My plan is practice about an hour each day at work. Then hopefully bring things home to my garage. I’m a shop foreman at a heavy equipment fab shop. We MIG and Stick all day. I contract a local machinist for TIG work. He is willing to send me piece work home with me when my skill set gets on par. Wish I had done this years ago. What’s more American the a guy making a few extra bucks welding in my tiny little two car garage. That’s gotta be on a top ten list somewhere.
    Take care.

    Awesome workmanship and great job at explaining what’s happening as you weld. Have my first welder on order (Everlast 250EX) and can’t wait to start practicing. One subject I think you missed on is the question of welding dissimilar materials together (steel bung w/ Aluminum). What’s the filler wire and aluminum type? Thanks again for the vid, it’s excellent!

    • @5thStreetFab
      @5thStreetFab  Před 6 měsíci

      Sure! The best setting for all around tig aluminum is 70% balance 130hz. Leave everything else alone. Amps change depending on the thickness and joint configuration. Cup size 7 if you have it and a gas lens if you have one also. 14 cfh of argon.

    What filler rod do you like for bungs on radiators? 4043 or 5356? Also 1/16" or 3/32" diameter filler rod? Cup size and argon cfh? Sorry for all the questions. Trying to perfect my aluminum welding.

    • @5thStreetFab
      @5thStreetFab  Před 4 lety +1

      I like 4943 its like 4043 but smoother welding. usually 3/32" but it depends how thick the bung and radiator are. I like either a standard number 5 or a gas lens 7. my cfh is usually around 12-15 cfh basically as low as i can set it without contaminating the weld.
