Good shit dude! I freakin' love welding aluminum. I've welded literal thousands of linear feet of aluminum structure and pipe...MIG, TIG, stick and even oxy/acetyl flame welded a bunch of 2mm sheet butt joints. My man, yr doing just fine. God bless you and truly wish you all the best. Aluminum is a truly different animal, but once you really tune into her, it becomes stupid easy to lay down seriously sexy welds with very little effort.

I said it before and I'll say it again: Another job well done - in front of and behind the camera.

@samuraidriver4x4 Год назад

Aluminium/aluminum is something you just need to weld alot of and experiment with what works for you and your equipment. You didnt suck that bad, I have seen far worse welds in the years I have been a tig welder. Also hi Walker's mom👋

@skwerlz Год назад

An easier way to get your tube ends lined up - make a couple V-shaped stands out of angle and you can mark both ends the same. Similarly if you ever have to draw a straight line down the side of a pipe, use an angle as a straightedge.

Waiting for the internet trolls to roll in with their TIG advice on perfect dimes on small radius tube... Who probably have never picked up a Tig torch, but knows all about watching someone else do it on youtube

@samuraidriver4x4 Год назад

As someone with 10 years experience tig welding aluminum I'm doing the same.😆

@joesmith1067 Год назад

25 year's welding experience dang Im getting old lol. All types of welding. There's definitely some trolls that think them dimes just stack themselves. Tight spaces and weird angels can make " nice looking" welds tricky but the guy with the torch and helmet on knows if he bonded the metal regardless of what the weld "looks like". Mike Row. Lol is it really you. When I was a rigger we tried to contact dirty jobs. Boy did we get dirty.

I tried welding aluminium with a mig welder years ago. What I ended up with looked like a miniature topographical map of the Lake District.

@scottcarr3264 Год назад

Yeah, I'm not crazy about Mig Aluminium Either, I much Prefer Tig.

@jacksonfreeland2177 Год назад

Recently I was in tractor supply getting dog food for my girlfriend. I always stroll through their revamped tool section, including welding equipment. And wouldn't you know it, they're selling Hobart aluminum stick electrodes. I thought to myself, "Hmmm only $9 for the smallest pack in the shelf, and I love making abominations with processes I know are NOT AT ALL recommended." I haven't tried yet, but they're still in the shop taunting me to waste that $9 creating more material to add to the scrap bin.

@johnross3752 Год назад

you should have used an angel, lay the tubing onto the angel mark a line, cut the angel you need ...done ! the middle part , just use the line and cut it 50/50 each direction ... done ! no open ends !

Great video really enjoyed it and a fantastic job on the rack looks spot on. All ways look forward and enjoy your video can’t wait till the next. 👍👍

Watching this again, it seems like this was a make or break moment for Lift Arc. Like a reality survival show, Lift Arc made it through the trial.

89/20 20/20 extruded aluminum. So great.

@SchysCraftCo. Год назад

Some days are not the best. Take a deep breath. We will get through it. Yes most definitely would love lift arc stuff. Can't wait to see more videos soon Tay and the gang. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

@blakewillemsen9925 Год назад

Hey Tay, I just discovered your channel and I can't understand why you don't have a half million subs. I love the way you present things and your demeanor is awesome. You were made for RU-vid. And yes, I'll be looking for some merch. Keep being awesome!

@jacksonfreeland2177 Год назад

In sort of the same boat. I discovered the long 4+ hour shop clean out/restoration and watched the whole video in two sittings. Then I never really came back to the channel, even though I'm in welding school and watch lots of welding/fab related content. I suppose the algorithm gods decided I needed to find this channel again after many months and I'm glad it did. I had no idea the actual fabrication and welding related videos were so good. Tays shop looks like the type of place I'd love to work in. As everyone knows, much of the industry has its people with overblown egos, hazing, gatekeeping and a healthy dose of misogynistic tendencies. I don't get that vibe at all from the guys on this channel. They just seem like nerds who love building shit, which happens to be similar to how I'd describe myself.

@carphead2009 Год назад

Whatched this over 2 days and really enjoyed. I like your approach. So I'm a beginner in the welding world having only used an arc welder. My ambition is to weld aluminium. So I now have a mig/Tig welder. Just bought a wp 26 as a starting point now need gas and consumables. So I'm going to make mistakes no doubt. You seem like just a normal working person to me but with flare, so I'm draw to your builds with interest. Thank you and looking forward to seeing more shows.

@htownblue11 Год назад

Great shout out to Justin at the Fab series. He’s very skilled and willing to share his knowledge….oh and you are certainly “kinda good at welding”…hahahaha.

@williamroark4760 Год назад

Try a CK TL26 torch. It's a 17 series size, with 26 series amperage capacity. I started using this one, and I won't use anything else. This is the best bang for your buck, without adding water cooling.

Great job! Have you ever had a problem cutting aluminum on the plasma table as far as possible explosive gases giving you concern?

@basbastian2998 Год назад

Nice job, Tay. (And Walker) I try some aluminium welding from time to time. And it is weird stuff. So no comment on your weld. I could not do it better my self.

aluminum and stainless. two fun materials to weld for sure

@Knautschfriese Год назад

Great Work, and a good Video! 😃 My father was a welder at a shipyard, and helped building submarines. There he had to weld ALOT of aluminum.

@jacksonfreeland2177 Год назад

One of my instructors at the community college I attended worked at a Navy shipyard building submarines. This was back in the 70s I think. He did that for 17 years then welded for the Marine Corp for the rest of his 50+ year career. For a while he was the guy who administered AWS weld testing in my town. Super humble, extremely knowledgeable and patient guy to work with and learn from. The school I went to unfortunately underfunded the welding program and most of the equipment was old as hell and rarely used. But this guy made it worth every minute I spent. He also helped me learn how a 25 year old Miller with two knobs on it can be dialed in and weld just as good as the few new machines the other students would only use . A good man, an asset to the community and the school, and a guy who should be enjoying retirement but generously helps the next generations learn the fundamentals.

@dirkkelly9596 Год назад

Nice 👍

@roberta4989 Год назад

OK, this comment is for Walker...nice shirt, I guess!

@warrenjones744 Год назад

I know you left some of the 100 year old line shafting in place from former machine shop. I didn't think much about it until today. What a cool background that appears from time to time. Especially while talking about modern gas lens torches and arc frequency. Edit... BTW this machinists says don't force it....Get a bigger hammer...Heh heh

@shawnburnett22 Год назад

pizza rack for a short person, better if it was say 6 ft tall , with box storage on the lower half ,I always have trouble making something for someone when I think its a bad design.When you have been the boss for a long time you get very opinionated , GREAT JOB !!

@dijohnson7 Год назад

I think it turned out well, apart from the fact that it’s half as tall as it should be unless the pizza joint is run by dwarves of course.

@scottcarr3264 Год назад

Maybe this rack fits Under a bench.

39:00 Your Electrode is blue and that isnt supposed to. It should be nice and clean as fresh. Turn up the time in the past gasflow to cool that electrode and shield it from oxygen.

@rodneycassidy6037 Год назад

Obviously you are not a tig aluminum god bot honestly most people aren't. This is not bad at all and plenty good enough for what it is. As taryl would say "it's not the space shuttle" haha.
