You have to be aware of the weather and how it could possibly effect the quality of your weld here is some tips on combating the Cold effects on your weld
Just want to say thanks for your videos they are a big help. I just turned 35 and am going to school to in a worker retraining program for welding. Watching your videos have helped me out tremendously with my 7018 positions and with the information on getting your foot in the door with welding job prospects. Keep up the great work and videos .

We do it a little different offshore smaller tacks an we never drive a wedge in it just use a spacer. I guess when you learn it different it looks wrong when you see done a different way . I don't like 2" sch40 or 80 pipe . Offshore pipeline welder 32 years . It's great your sharing your skills with other welders God bless you .
Just found your channel. Giving you a sub. Never welded pipe before but after watching you I'm sure I like welding in a warm shop as opposed to outside like you. My hats off to you and all the pipe welders out there.
I just found your channel also and sub'd.....I am retired live in Michigan and teaching myself to weld but what caught my eye on your channel at first was we share the same last name same spelling and all.....great video looking forward to watching more!
great vid bro. looking to take my 3G test in a couple weeks. did my first open v groove in 1G today. it was cool. used a 6011 at around 85 amps for root and hot. 7018 3/32 at around 90 amp for intermediate and cover.
Not sure my comment is necessary but imma say it anyways, bout 5 years too late. There’s no moisture in the steal … the preheat is to prevent rapid cooling and thermal shock basically, preventing cracking in the bead or tacks. The moisture you see is from the combustion process of the preheat torch itself, fuel combined with oxygen creating water vapor… it’s condensation basically on the cold pipe. Flame impingement. Not trying to be a smart A$$ and call anyone out, just want to clarify something that’s incorrect. This and other videos are super helpful on many things and very spot on in most cases. (Welder here for 25 years myself) just trying to add informative information to fellow welders.
Say it's good to see you up there at the empyre South I come across that dude he was rebuilding an SAE 300 he still ain't got the damn thing done I was going to buy a 271 Detroit and a 1978 SAE 400 but I found this deutz diesel- SAE 350 and just had to have it so I got out of building one from scratch however I got to do the jugs on this I can't win for losing
I like this guy. Wish I had the chance to work for him. I'd learn everything I could. Trying to get the truck together now. Probably be ready in s few weeks

All of my welding so far has been in the summer. Your video tips will come in very handy this winter when I do some welding with my everlast.
I love your videos, I'm in school and you give me an idea what to expect. Thank you

Sawyer wedges work for me pretty well. I've always been told the springs make the best. Stay safe brother.

I like your videos guys, keep up the good work 👍
My favorite wedge is a old crescent wrench cut ground down but don't get it hot and they are rock solid
"The more you weld the warmer it'll get"
I've never tried welding with my powerarc in really cold weather. Good to know.

I love it when people do their job the right way (like you do), not the bare minimum they have to do.
Good job scholfield 👍👍

Ronnie Mac style welding videos, I like it.
temp stick use them all the time in digesters and high low clamps to draw in screens using 309 l 16.
