    @tonymichaels5592 Před rokem +134

    I've been welding 27+ years and there's a ton of great information in this video, all of it spot on. One minor thing I'd like to mention, your nozzle should never be more than hand tight. I never use my welpers to remove or install the nozzle, even if it's hot. Here's why: What I'm seeing at work is younger welders being told to tighten a hot nozzle using their welpers. When it's hot, the inner diameter is slightly larger and doing this causes the threaded insert to get pushed into the nozzle. This results in your contact tip sticking further out and the gas circulation to be incorrect. In the end you run into the contact tip dipping into the puddle and potential porosity. It only stood out to me because of what I'm seeing from inexperienced welders being given the wrong information where I work. Other than that, great video.

    Throughout my life (all 68 years) I have found that if I understand what and why I am doing something, I can usually master it quickly. In teaching others at my various jobs, others appreciate explanations of what is happening and how it is happening. This is what you are doing, and I appreciate it greatly. I have just bought a MIG welder and will soon be learning how to use it.

    • @brian6391

      And that's an issue with a lot of guys who are great welders but aren't great at teaching but become instructors in their off time and they have a hard time relaying their knowledge so it's nice to hear it from a different voice from time to time.

    @mikewagner8216 Před 2 lety +28

    Ok. I've been welding for roughly 30 years, and I have found that if you drag a weld, it does NOT give better penetration in your base metal. Pushing your weld cuts a channel for the filler metal to fill, as the filler will build up behind the arc. Think of the electrode flame travel as an air arc gouge machine. This is especially prominent for copper clad, or "hardwire". Flux core is a totally different animal. Especially dual shield. You can run dual shield in either push or pull, but I still prefer push, due to the electrode flame travel.

This job was passed on to other that always seemed to be busy. So I’m taking on the challenge of just welding them my self. We have a nice miller mig welder and huge metal work table. So I’m here looking for tips on how to correctly weld. It’s just sign post nothing fancy but I still wanna be able to say yep I did those. I have 8 of these to do next week and I spent some time this week practicing on scrap. I see a few things I was doing wrong and have a better understanding of the settings thanks again. And hopefully the welders at work won’t give me to hard a time when I’m done👍🏻

    Yeah no manipulation needed in most cases!!
    Shielding gas is so important!! When it runs out you will know! It will leave holes in the weld!
    Wire speed is crucial ! When I was learning how to weld , I would have my hand on the wire speed controller and turn it up and down as I was welding with the other hand , just to see and feel what the optimum speed was!!!!!

    So ive been learning to weld just at work, with no one who really knows how to weld, nice to have this available. Lots of just plain trial and error lead me to getting the right angle, not having the line stick out to far, i tend to weave my weld just because its easier for me to keep on my line that way for some reason. But good lord is it nice finding this to lean on because it sucks trying to learn something and having nothing to really refrence or no one to ask.

    Thanks for this. I just bought a small farm in Canada a few months back after retiring from the Canadian Army and have thought several times already that I need to learn to weld. But I found the whole thing a bit intimidating as I have never even touched a welder before. Then today my neighbour called me and offered me a mig welder and all of the accessories for free. He bought it six years ago and he’s never used it. He said I can just have it. I thought that was pretty awesome of him. I offered to pay him of course but he shut me down and said if we’re going to be neighbours we should also be friends!! Pretty damned awesome!! So I’ll be picking it up this week and thought I’d better start learning. Thanks for this video. I shall watch some more! Not quite as intimidating as I thought.

    Very nice basics good refresher for intermediate hobbyist welders too like myself!
    From own experience I'll add one nuance tip to prop hand: don't lean on it too hard or grip the welding gun too hard (like an actual gun).
    It might feel like it's stabler but moving along becomes harder which indeed easily leads to curving the wrist.
    You need to be able to slide along the supporting surface effortlessly.
