got my first ever tig welder on the way and really want to try my hand at fabricating a header and exhaust for my ae86. this vid is a great resource and answered a ton of questions i had, thanks dude!

didn't know you could bend tungsten, I would have thought it was too brittle. Very cool

@bnmperformancefab 4 месяца назад

Some tungsten’s don’t like to be bent at all and some don’t mind. I’ll make a short vid on how to do it or at least how I do it. Thanks for watching!!

@viperstd 4 месяца назад

I strike a hot arc on a block of copper and bend it while red hot. Works pretty reliably for me. Even had luck with the CK Layzr.

@aaronbuildsa 4 месяца назад

Great video with some good tips - and great to see what 'real world' welding looks like when access isn't perfect. One thing you didn't cover which should probably be obvious but might not be is; how exactly do you bend the tungsten? (I know it should be as simple as - get it glowing red with a torch and bend it.. in theory!) Also as others have said, that argon tank is 'uge! You must need a forklift to move that thing around :)

@hotrodchris805 4 месяца назад

Nice job! Wouldn't want your argon bill! I noticed you said the material was schedule, and indeed it looks heavy stuff. I'm curious as to why you'd use that instead of tube (1.6mm which I think is 16swg). Thanks.

@bnmperformancefab 4 месяца назад

If I was using cylinders my argon bill would be above a thousand but liquid argon is the way to go for production stuff

@riley6723 4 месяца назад

Great info and good job sharing. Love the honesty. How loud is your Everlast torch cooling fan? Mine on my 325 is friggin deafening lol.

@bnmperformancefab 4 месяца назад

They are loud haha but hey, I’d rather it be loud then break and take forever to get fixed. The typhoon has the ability to turn the fans off and kick on at a certain temp and then back off

@riley6723 4 месяца назад

@@bnmperformancefab I didn’t know the newer ones did that?! That’s great! My only other complaint was the cheap foot pedal/ the machine would never stay on the “setting” you left it at, after shutting it off. Other than that. Surprisingly good Tig machines.

@scottymakerdude3827 4 месяца назад

Quick question for you......at 16:06, it seemed as if the two pipes were touching toward the left side of the screen. If they were touching, would that be a vibration point, and possible wear spot? I'm not knocking you at all, it was just something I noticed. Maybe someone else said it too, but I know Blue Demon makes bendable tungsten as well. Amazing video, and I love how you explain everything for us beginners. Awesome work!!!!!

@bnmperformancefab 4 месяца назад

Both banks rest on each other, it’s called fitment. They will not vibrate and damage each other. These runners are big so every little amount can assist with making sure there are no ground clearance issues.

@Poppofski 4 месяца назад

is the pulse stopping it from being distorted ?

@bnmperformancefab 4 месяца назад

Not so much that as it’s more to keep the heat out of it. Since I use a pedal I can control how much heat I put into the part

@Poppofski 4 месяца назад

@@bnmperformancefab i've started tig welding in france a few months ago and i've never seen pedal operated welding in any company ive worked for it seems so useful , my biggest problem so far is understading how the metal moves when it heats up and cools down 😂

@makantahi3731 4 месяца назад

do you test welds if they seal, i did and air comes out on places i would not suspect

@waynewalker3493 4 месяца назад

You can leak check by connecting to a water supply. Then weld up the leaks.

@makantahi3731 4 месяца назад

@@waynewalker3493 i checked it by putting soap on welds and i pushed air into closed pipe, it is easier because it is hard to close ends of pipe to hold water instead air

@pekrewrek 4 месяца назад

Toriated electrodes scare me away though since they're radioactive (even if a little bit). Think I'm going to try to heat and bend some WL electrodes instead. P.S. those welds of yours look fantastic! 🤤

@5t341tH 5 месяцев назад

Does pulse welding need to be set at a higher amp than non pulse welding?

@user-kh2yl6nn3l 5 месяцев назад

Yes . Matters what you're welding as to how much more though . You might play around with it to get where you want it . :)

@bnmperformancefab 5 месяцев назад

No the goal in using pulse is to get more pen while using less sustained heat input. Pulse can be used for a wide range of reasons. Generally it’s used to keep the haz or heat effected zone to a minimum
