    Let's do some Pipe Welding! 6010 open root is tough. There's no doubt about it. It's also tough to. teach common mistakes if you weld 6010 pipe everyday. Good muscle memory is hard to break. In today's episode, @bingo_welding is going to let Jason make some mistakes and teach him how to correct them.

    When a new apprentice came on the job and was having problems I would watch and see them making circles ore u shapes or ? as that is how they were instructed in school, I told them to stop all that and just watch the puddle not the arc and do what the metal wants. It's like painting with a brush. put the metal with deliberate purpose, you control it not the other way around. This seemed to help newbies go from barely hanging on to getting control on there way to becoming great welders. Retired 597 Chicago

    I found all these 90°pipe fittings in the basement of this abandon wearhouse we're working in. They have that beveled edge just like those. I'm just learning to weld and i don't get to do it everyday but i try like hell to. I'm going to teach (as i have been) myself with the help of your video how to weld these pipes and just practice. I have the mig down pretty good now. I started out stick welding, so since I'm learning i may as well start learning this before i get to far in habits welding plate. I'm subscribed so as soon as i log into YT i get these videos and i am happy watching. You 2 guys are great because you're just talking away in conversation not complicating anything.

    To my amateur ears Bob Moffat knows his stuff and has experience going back decades. However, I learn much more off these two though I'll never weld a pipe as long as I live. It’s horses for courses and we all learn in different ways off different people. When I was first starting I learnt a lot off Paul and 'Mig Monday' and he kept it very simple. This has been a very useful video, thank you.

    I just finished 1 1/2 months of 8 inch standard wall for irrigation. I wondered what other people do when they blow a big ass hole. I would stop and clean a little then go back and lower the amps a few. I like this technique and will try it more in the future. I would get it all cleaned up then burn a HOT pass cause it covers a multitude of sins. Then clean it up real good then go 7018 and roll it out.

    I have welded 6010 roots in hospital boiler rooms, in paper mills too. Then 7018 fill & caps.
    Would like to see the inside of the root with the radical wipping that was done. I find keeping the "whipping" to a minimum makes a guided root bend test more likely to pass than whipping as much as was done in the vid.
    Let the whole piece cool way down before doing any more on the root. What I do is bump the two walls (to make sure they melt. I make a small circular motion). Of course pointing the rod in the right direction depending on what the keyhole is doing.

    I have a copy of (welders offshore guide), that's sold on EBAY, and in one part of it, it tells how a number of welders learn and get certified without ever having to go to an expensive welding school. So many young men want to be welders but some are already married and cannot afford to take a year out of their life and go back to vocational training school. Ingalls in pascagoula, ms. Has 3 year pipe welding apprentice programs where they pay $17.50 per hr. Just to train you, drawback is passing a drug test and no criminal background which most welders have issues with both. That's why I like the welders offshore guide because it overcomes all those issues with the knowledge it provides on learning and getting certified, without having to go through long awaited union programs, some welders follow its advice and get certified in a few weeks. I wish it had been published back in the 70's when I started welding.

    I usually don't have much a problem in open root when current is set right need very little whipping of rod,now when work is heating up current usually needs turned down slightly cause of preheating and I use 1\8 gape for root and get the rod deep in the key hole
    the weld looks just if it welded on both sides and I hated welding with 6010 Slattery rascles and went to welding school 30 years ago combination welder another thing need to keep a key hole threw out the open root it will have a nice crown on the other side if done right ,the best way I was showed in school is weld open root practice using two flat plates if you can weld both sides that will have nice crown on the other side then move on to pipe.

    Best advice for young welders is welding 6010 vertical and learning to jam that rod and keep the frogs eye. That frog eye will show you where the froze metal is and how far to whip whipping to far makes slag inclusion, not coming back to the last dime laid causes blow out because of the heat build up.

    First time doing pipe with 6010 Uphill but We don’t have a Machine to cut the pipes so mine was kinda a bad fit up Little Too tight of a gap

      Best way to learn is to hand cut bevel and plain! Sometimes you don’t have the tools on a bigger job and you’ll come in handy over guys who rely too much on the machines to do it for them

    This is hard to perfect, I wind up blowing a hole through it often. Keyhole management utilizing gravity favouring the upper pipe.

    • @MrDillaKilla
      @MrDillaKilla Před 3 lety

      If you're running 70-80 amps and blowing up the keyhole, try tightening your gap slightly or putting a heavier land. I like a 3/32 land, fat 1/16 gap and 75-80 amps.

    Sooo…I’m prepping and for a pipe 6G schedule 40 pipe test and the inspector is requesting a 1/8 gap, 1/8 land, with a 1/8 6010 root followed by 1/8 7018 fill and cap. I’m having trouble finding this procedure online, most everything is 3/32 gap and land and mostly schedule 80. Can you guys help?

    today i welded some L channel onto the bumper of a 8000lb truck... snow plow. 1/8 7018 145 amps base to burn the rust off, 80-125 amp fill depending of position, and a 160amp hot pass to smooth it out and get some of the flux to mix in so it doesn't rust as fast. still have some filling to do but i cant get a stick to those spots.

    • @DontPressA
      @DontPressA Před 3 lety

      Flux in the weld weakens it. Usually a multi pass weld is so thick the rust will eat up all the parent metal before a good weld would rust away.

      @@ardennielsen3761 with practice, it’s incredible how thin of material you can weld with bigger rod. I got some 1/16 6013 for stuff like that but as long as you can keep the material from melting away you can use whatever you got on hand.
