Hello my name is Jorge Serna and I'm a fabricator. I enjoy building stuff from new and used scrap metal to create useful projects. Welding reviews and homemade tools will also pop out as they become available. I hope you enjoy the channel whether you are a beginner or professional welder.
Very good! I like it!!! Keep a can of shaving cream in that box in case you bump something with africanized bees in it. You cover your face and arms or any exposed flesh to keep from getting stung. Speaking from experience.
"There was no alcohol involved" LMFAO!! Grilling/smoking and drinking often go together very well for us men. I love that you specified this, but even if there was alcohol involved we still wouldn't judge.
Most of the welding machines I been using seem to have similar ground clamps, might be the same manufacture. I will hopefully be trying it out again to do more intensive testing.
@@cutweldngrind yes I have both the Titanium 125 and the Century FC 90 fluxcore welders and they both came with cheap ground clamps so I swapped them out for 300amp ground clamps but I also have the Yeswelder 135 fluxcore welder and it came with a heavy duty ground clamp ,so I see more of these class welders coming out with better upgrades like this one you reviewed and like the Best Arc 145, enjoyed your review 👍
I have there Tig 325 x and I’m impressed with the quality and performance of my welder I’m considering purchasing this next thanks for the great review and also is it capable of cnc plasma table interface
The cut60 has been an excellent machine and use it as my primary machine. I have a CNC table and you can see it running on my projects without issues. The consumables are also priced well and easy to find. The machine I started with was a Hypertherm Powermax 45 and this one soon replaced it.
ALL the cheap Chinese submersible pumps appear to die for the same reason: water entering the motor and destroying it. The pumps themselves seem pretty good. If the Chinese manufacturers could solve the poor motor seal problem they'd have some great products. At the moment, they're disposable, often lasting less than a year, and the promised warranty rarely means anything.
I had 1 pump that the body got a pin hole and 1 that the screw wore out and flow dropped to 2 gpm. I do buy the Allstate warranty on ebay and they have replaced 2 pumps for me. I was looking into RPS and their full kits are like $4000. I am planning on buying a new solar pump that uses impellers instead of a screw.
I really like the way the 160 worked and was very affordable when I purchased it. I would recommended it to any person interested in learning to stick weld.
Got mine awhile back ago mainly for flux. Just now trying stuck foe the first time. Did you try a 3/8 on anybrids and if so did it work? Or does it only do 3/32
The 205ds went out in a bang after warranty period. I did use it on 1/4" and don't recall if I tested any 3/8". I really wanted to try out the new DP200 so might buy one later on.
Now you can Buy a Really Nice Digital Inverter 140amp Mig Welder for around $80 Far Superior Then those HF 90-125 units as for Flux Core wire Try Blue Demon E71T-11 .030
Technology has really changed and things have gotten affordable for sure. I do believe transformer machines are more robust and can with stand the elements better. I've had 2 IGBT welders go out while my old transformer machines are going strong. The Blue Demon wire works good.
This is what I have going to try these settings I was doing a thinner pipe onto quarter. Pipe as sticking good too much wire speed for quarter tho on what I did. Very splattery first welds ever. I think these are kind of a ranch or farm welder
@@cutweldngrind ah. Ya I cranked it way up 4voltage and 35 wire feed. That seems to work for 1/8th to 1/4th somewhat. Seems like I got it to fuse not pretty of course. I took the gas shield off too helping with the tight spot and added some copper wire to my clamp. It's my dad's old welder he did horse shoe tack welds and 1/8th tubing with it mostly. Some flat steel too. He must have been pretty good at welding to use an inappropriate machine and have them hold this long.
These are caps for fence pipes and got them at a metal supplier in Laredo Texas. Laredo Discount metals). I am not sure if they are available online on amazon or other sites.
I made the frame out of 2" square tubing, its 3/16" wall. I got the material for cheap and that's the reason I use thick wall tube for this project. I don't have any video of this frame.
I have not cooked carne asada with mesquite in a while. Pellet grills are great for ease of use but there is no substitute for cooking carne asada like this. how did the grill grate hold up?
Sweet rig / Build man. As for an idea for the next build what are those grill called that it's rectangle grill with coal in bottom & the rack adjusts in height by chain ? Whatever that's called buid that ..lol
I believe its a Santa Maria grill and is actually something I want to build once the days get cooler. 110F is just plain awful and don't help me on my welding projects. Thanks for watching.
Great video. Keep building stuff. I recently got into welding as a hobby and have used your videos to give me ideas and tips. Loved the grill (except the Cowboys thing... I am a Jets fan...).
I'm no Cowboys fan either but good thing it will be gone by Monday. I like to learn and teach others by using RU-vid as my main tool. I'm sometimes slow to respond but will eventually get to comments, let me know if you have any questions on any of your projects to come.
Thanks. I still use guides and my gloves to position myself better but I agree my cuts have gotten better. I cant recall when I got my Hypertherm but must of been 10 plus years ago. My only pending tool that I want to learn to use is an OXY cutting torch or what ever they are called. I may have to visit your tank videos again as I want to get my old dozer build and start over.
Plasma cutters are awesome and they have been a big change in the way I work on my projects. The first machine I got was the Hypertherm Powermax 45 with a price tag of over $2000. Today there is many machines that can do 1/2" steel and are around the $200 mark. I enjoy using my Arccaptain CUt50 for hands free cutting and my Primeweld Cut60 for the CNC table.
