A Few Tricks I Bet You Don't Already Know - Drill Jig - TIG Welding Aluminum Fabrication 

I know right ,I’m like holy cow did he just speak. So he is a human not an AI! man if I could only weld like that

​@@mattschmidt4001now artificial intelligence can generate a voice, so perhaps it is just ai)

man, i thought the same thing and is the only reason I came to comment 😅

He’s been talking for several vijeos now 🎉

I agree. Never heard a word until now 😂

Makes for a more enjoyable video. Some of us are weird and just watch these as entertainment. I've never even touched a tig welder, let alone fabricated anything out of aluminum.

You’re doing a great job! It seems you can convey more of the thought process that goes into fabrication by talking instead of editing in text after you’ve completed each step. You might forget the little things by the time you commence editing the video. Either way your videos are excellent.

I like your commentary, adds heaps to the work description. You'll get used to your own voice someday 😂

talk

talk, some really useful tips / understanding - thank you

Thank you for the feedback Nick

I concur with Nick. Not only the welding but the amount of info on what tools he uses is great and probably took a while to make so you don’t have to search and guess.

Agreed! The 6061 website class was the first thing I went to after some time off. Thanks, Aaron!

Even after tig welding for 30 years, I took the course! Worth the money, new perspectives & techniques! Newbs take 6061’s course, easier to establish proper techniques, than fix bad habits!

Just bought a tig button myself - haven't used it yet, though. I'm nervous - I've used other hand-control thingies before and absolutely could not get used to them.

Yeah I've had mine for a few years and I love it. It can be fatiguing with long hours and suboptimal finger placement for activating it, so thinking about how you're going to sustain pressing it is something good to do. I still haven't found the perfect grip, but I use it all the time and it's really phenomenal.

Yup, I’m about 3 years into the tig button, between the magic button, Aaron’s website, and practice of course, I have made some impressive (by my standards lol) gains in my Al Loom In E Um welding. Another huge bonus of the super button is of course how it lets you know when you have an inadequate ground😳

That's 4 words

No, because I feel it is quicker and easier to look through text to find information, compared to hunting back and forth through a bunch of videos to find the exact spot where someone is speaking information. Written text is much easier to reference, especially if you want to go back and review. For example (for educational purposes), If I were to tell you everything I said through this video in text instead, directly below the video in a paragraph description, you'd be able to find and digest (read) the pertinent information much quicker. And there would be no hunting for it if you came back to refresh. It takes about 20 seconds to read the paragraph vs. going back through an entire 10 minute video hunting for something you can't recall. Another example- If you are curious about hertz settings, you can click on that page and read a quick 2 paragraph explanation in about 10 seconds that tells you everything you need to know, or watch a 3 minute video, or both. Your choice.

Fuck I can’t argue with that. Well said. In an educational sense it’s more efficient to just have it written down bare bones. You sold me quick there

Part numbers and all machinery is listed on the website (2nd video)

OK, nevermind. It's about the holes in the wood, not the jig. Nice work!

Aluminum and a bit of stainless steel

Not when TIG welding at relatively low amperages for short periods of time.

Yes, all miller 14 pin www.6061.com/tigbutton.htm The list of compatible machines is at the bottom of the order page: www.6061.com/tigbutton.htm

​@@6061I just had a look on your website and my machine isn't listed. I have a T&R Multiwave, it's sold under UNIMIG Australia.

@@n8o8n Unimig is now supported. You can order through the website. Please make sure to enter your exact make and model. Thanks www.6061.com/tigbutton.htm

He did that already, well he didn't make it. Some many videos back he fixed one.

Dude's dexterity with thick Tilman gloves on is part of his mastery of working with Aluminum. I'm worthless, gloved - meaning I'm always needing to cool my work back down to handle...
