What is a Hel Hook? Can you weld chromium vanadium wrenches? and what is the best filler rod for jobs like that?
In this video I am modifying and welding a chromium vanadium wrench so that I will have a dedicated wrench for my gas cylinder connections.
I just got tired of tracking down my 12" adjustable wrench and want a dedicated wrench that will stay on the cylinder all the time.
So I got some cheap wrenches in 11/16" and 1-1/8" sizes , cut with a grinder, and welded into a custom dedicated wrench that will not get borrowed like the adjustable wrench.
I used 309 filler rod for this and I would recommend anyone with a welding shop to keep a few sticks of 309 rod around for jobs like this as well as other dissimilar metal combinations and odd jobs.

love the hook!

@thisdj83 5 лет назад

Me too. I Loved it so much I will make one out of stainless this week.

@floridasaltlife 5 лет назад

Same here, I bought Jody's steel weld up version for my tig tank, as I did his dual flow reg. this week as well for a stainless tubing job on a turbo car hot side. I owe this guy everything I know about welding. I am Jody taught, and a lot of practice.

@codysett1 6 лет назад

All these years later and I still love your videos. And im not even a welder by trade!

@lolzlarkin3059 6 лет назад

Neither am I, but goddamn I want to be a tig wizard now.

@robingibson7503 6 лет назад

You're a genius, love watching your videos, I always learn so much. Shade tree mechanic here, learned to weld by the seat of my pants by necessity on my tractors and my jeep. I don't think I would ever pass a welding test. but I am better for watching your videos. Thank you so much for he time and effort you put into it. You make it fun to watch.

@Ryan_1997 6 лет назад

will be learning how to tig soon. just got a machine in the other day, waitin for the argon cylinder. i start my classes on the 27th. thanks Jody for everything you share with us👍👍

@weldingjunkie 6 лет назад

Ryan gst did you get the HTP brother? I couldn’t remember if you did.

@shitbox7413 6 лет назад

Ryan gst, TIG welding is the best skill I’ve learned, I’ve been at it for 15 years now and am still learning a lot about welding. I love the variety of applications I’ve TIG welded ever the years, everything from bronze sculptures to implement attachments to garden tools for old women. 😄 I’ve enjoyed all of it greatly and you will too, good luck man! 👍🏻

@TourettesOrc 6 лет назад

Ryan gst i start on the 27th too. Good luck!

@gatorwing6231 2 года назад

I welded a chrome vanadium wrench that I cut in half to a piece of plain steel. I uses the 309 rod and it worked great. I didn't fool around with playing the foot pedal. Instead I clamped both pieces side by side in a vice. The vice ate the excess heat.👀

@ddcd53 6 лет назад

Nice video, great quality filming. You never cease to amaze me with your welding and teaching skills. I bet you would have made a great shop class teacher with your skills. Thanks for sharing with us. Dan

@OldbarnHomestead 6 лет назад

Been wanting to get some of the 309 to have around, good video, good to hear what its not good for. Hel hook looks super handy

@leewilkinson3220 6 лет назад

Jody what a cool and creative solution!

@PANTYEATR1 6 лет назад

it's ALWAYS interesting Mr. Jody. thanks for spreading the knowledge

@JDude-uj3lk 6 лет назад

At first I wondered why you didn't cut the box end off then at the end you showed it being used to hang the wrench up and it was genius! Another awesome video and tips.

@ChrisWojnarski 6 лет назад

Great video Jody I seen those hooks on amazon for a while now been interested. Cool that you have them I’d rather support you it’s the least I can do with all you do. Definitely getting one in the near future thanks for the great video 🙏👊🏻

@tylerhensley2312 6 лет назад

309 is my go to filler rod for just about whatever. It flowes good, looks good, and rarely cracks. I have and use more 309 filler rod than any other filler rod in my shop. I welded my enitre front axle together with 309 rod and I haven't had any problems with weld fatigue.

@FredMiller 6 лет назад

I learn SO much by watching your videos. Love the TIG fingers as well. Keep up the great work. Fred

@BPantherPink 5 лет назад

Great ideas both and the fabrication !!

@dirtragzzz 6 лет назад

Just ordered a hook! Thanks!!

@stevenmchenry9276 6 лет назад

You have the best ideas. Even my teachers watch your videos.

@smiththers2 6 лет назад

seeing tig videos really makes me wanna learn how, as others have said.

@andrewwilson8317 6 лет назад

Like the idea of the hook . My option was to fit magnets to mine,they stick to side of bottle when not in use.

@chriso1373 6 лет назад

Making one of these. Thanks again for the inspiration.

@workshoptazz7893 6 лет назад

Very cool ideas! And great info. Thank you. 👍👍

@fredwilliam1574 6 лет назад

I was going to make something like that hel hook for the tank I use for my everlast mig welder. I can't remember where I saw the idea but your product sure looks good.

@matijaravnik5411 6 лет назад

New awesome video sir. Thanks to sharing your knowledge with us :)

@precisionarc 6 лет назад

I keep 309 and 312 in stock, looking forward to meeting you at FabTech this year, it'll be my 1st!

@PianoMan5000 6 лет назад

In jiujitsu we use a technique called a heelhook to tear the ACL.i thought that's what you wrote lol.i just finished welding school here in Tampa last week ,your videos been Alot of help .

@SomervilleMetalWorks 6 лет назад

Good Idea Jody I'm forever hanging my mig mask on the regulator. Those welds pretty tight too.

@zanpekosak2383 6 лет назад

Cool thing. Back in the day we would take the most used sockets and we welded them or even brazed them on a steel rod. Man those were handy when you really needed more leverqge and were afraid to use ur ratchet (example is loosening car tires).

@mikewalton5469 6 лет назад

i love the channel! thanks for sharing

@uprednecked 6 лет назад

Dang I need to learn how to Tig. It’s so clean.

@patmancrowley8509 6 лет назад

I've rounded so many nuts and bolts with those 12-point wrenches and sockets that I've quite buying them. I'll only buy and keep 6-point wrenches and sockets.

@billshuey7422 6 лет назад

Wow! Great idea.

@carmo9693 6 лет назад

Never thought of using a stainless wire to weld wrenches, always use the regular steel wire when I tig them. I always thought it would crack under extreme torq. And I have an elcheapo scratch tig I weld with only too.

@masterofnone 6 лет назад

Cool idea!

@jordanthadan7113 6 лет назад

Hey jody love your videos it would be amazing if you did some innershield videos with nr 232 or 233 or core shield 8 keep killing it

@AntonioFrancisco-wo8mo 5 лет назад

HOLA my name is Toni I subscribed a few months ago and I wrote to see if you could translate what you explain to Spanish because I really like the way you do the work but of course I do not understand you and I would like to understand everything you say. Many Spanish-speaking people would help us a lot with your explanations. Because I think you're a great professional, thank you very much

@machaf 4 года назад

Thx..gave me an idea to 3d print that hook since you're sold out.

@paulmorrey733 6 лет назад

Thanks Jody

@toyotrustPR 6 лет назад

Great video thanks

@paulwhited117 5 лет назад

A little trick is to also use the box end of a 1-1/8” wrench and use it to put the meter on then it stays on of course and you know right where it is when you need to remove. So those left over end you have will work perfect for that. I’ve also welded a washer with 5/8” hole to the end of box side of wrench and reinstalled the nipple end of the brass part for propane attachments like a propane fired turbo heater and that wrench is always there and never lost when needed.

@pedromeza2398 6 лет назад

I like the welding, just wondering about using the old school welder multi sized wrench, would that have worked?

@jimsvideos7201 6 лет назад

I think just having the confidence that you won't have to go screwing around looking for a wrench when you have to change bottles makes this worth it.

@mordantly 6 лет назад

Nice and clever wrench... I wonder if a right angle would be any more useable?

@peanutsmith1462 3 года назад

@tommyt2854 6 лет назад

Love 309. I don't remember what I was welding (some mild steel), but I was getting my hiney kicked by porosity. Right or wrong, I switched to 309 filler and waalaa, no more porosity....

@topgunm 6 лет назад

Just started TIG welding, and your videos have helped me so much, and they continue to help and educate me. Can you start a Patreon? I would love to support you there. You are a great teacher. Also, I really want some TIG fingers, but shipping (to Norway) cost as much as the finger. Is it possible to order cheaper shipping when just ordering your TIG finger?

@phase1ny 5 лет назад

Great page, I just found it and subscribed. Do you do custom welding if someone sends you something? I have an awesome vintage steel hammer but the handle side is too short and I wanted it longer.. I live in Veteran housing so I can bring my little Arc or tools here. I bought one in 93 and it still works like a charm. But its in storage since 2002

@joebywan 6 лет назад

That hel hook's a neat idea, could be easily 3d printed.

@fanwlkr 5 лет назад

Now that's a strong weld there, would you expect a 316lSi rod to preform in the same manner when it comes to chrome vanadium? I have a spool of 316 that I twist up (like you showed me) for TIG rods, and I haven't come across any small quantety spools or rods other then 70-6 and 316lSi around here. Thinking about maken something like that for another aplication, mabe I'll even make one just like it, afterall I haven't used anything bigger than a 22mm for anything but the gasclock since I stopped working on diggers and tractors

@nanukhapunga 6 лет назад

nice idea

@CaskStrength777 5 лет назад

Cool idea. Wondering, is there an ideal rod for welding chome vanadium tools like this? Thinking of modifying a pair of Knipex pliers by adding material for custom jaws, wonder if theres an ideal rod for that.

@ComputerCapone 6 лет назад

Impressive little items you came up with sir, I may visit weldmonger to help support your endevors!

@StreuB1 6 лет назад

Killer content in this video!! Information DENSE!!! More things you didn't realize you needed to own or needed to know in less than 5 min. Hell yeah Jody!! Thanks!! How about a source for those split cylinder valve caps??? Man, those things will sell!! All the guys who are doing contract work in food plants, thats gonna be mandatory I tell you right now.

@mordantly 6 лет назад

I fail to see how the valve is protected, aside from a lockout condition.. the reg can still snap the valve threads. The thin gauge might still transfer full impact to valve. What am I missing?

@robertblackman3451 6 лет назад

Didn't clean the chrome off? I thought that would be a problem, can you confirm. Thanks, you taught me how to Tig weld via utube. Just the thought seems crazy, but it's true.

@weldweld5629 6 лет назад

Will hel hook fit Air Liquide altop and smart top cylinders?

@interiorsdreamzone Год назад

Sir nice video thank you for giving advice. I have a question. Impact wrench machine socket also same TIG welding or steel rode welding?

@sylvestresanchez4848 6 лет назад

Thank you

@user-bf9qj3im7j 6 лет назад

Nice video, thanks! One question, did you grind all the chrome off the wrench surfaces for weld prep?

@weldingtipsandtricks 6 лет назад

Armen I’m pretty sure it was nickel plated and polished and I did not grind it off

@onceANexile 6 лет назад

Nice beed! I Have a weld job to do using caste iron rod. Can you show us this technique,???

@davidgtrr34 6 лет назад

I use 316ss to weld chrome vanadium and it has never broke yet, But the only time I weld this is when I need to modify a tool.

hey @weldingtipsandtricks i was looking at the LA Square, is it possible to change out the ruler to metric? is the ruler pretty standard? say if i get a stanly 300mm square and swap out the ruler??

@Freakingstang 6 лет назад

Been using 309 on a lot of cast steel/ductile iron repairs. Have had better luck with it than 312. Most of the older vises are cast steel and ductile iron instead of cast iron.

@petrovitch444a 6 лет назад

@mindthependulum6245 6 лет назад

Could you do a review of the fronious transteel 2020? They say it can mig aluminum without a spool gun all day long. I'm going to do some legend scale aircraft aluminum tubing for a number of projects and I'm trying to see if the fronious is right for me.

@otisspunkmeyer2010 6 лет назад

any welder can weld aluminum spray transfer on dc hard aluminum wire

@Thatdamfishingguy 3 года назад

Or for welding outside in a little wind 309 will cover your rear end no porosity also 2209 duplex works well outside in wind of course non critical welds only
