I have watched a LOT of welding videos, and this one video had tips I've never seen explained before. Everyone talks about grinding your tacks, but your little drawing explained it so much clearer. That's only one example. When I work with newbies, if they are interested, I will barage them with all the little tips and tricks I know; the kind of things I wish someone would have showed me when I first started. It's nice to see you pre-emptively providing him with tips and answers to questions he doesn't even know to ask yet. I loved the bit about Covid as well!
Thanks for the kind words! It's always great to hear that the tips are helpful. We're glad you found the explanation about grinding tacks useful. We'll keep sharing more tips!
Right on guys! Welding is where it is at. No matter...when I'm running beads and prepping for welds it doesn't even feel like work. Thank you for posting and Happy Welding 😁
Literally the best explanation for 6g and open root on the web. If your near Wyoming this is the school to go to. Awesome video. Rigwelder and fabricator going on 34 years and cwi. These guys are the best.
This is so well explained i felt i was there!👏 i like how ryan is there with you the whole time and explains everything,, man i wish i could attend this school but its soo farr😒 anyways great job guys, n ryan you are a great teacher! Greetings all the way from houston!
Y’all got some damn good instructors the instructors at my school threw projects and deadlines at us and hung us out to dry my whole class really found out what it meant to fend for urself and had find out what works for each of us
Just talked to one of your graduates and former student of mine. At 19, he will be making as much as the principal at our school who shows little to no interest in our Welding and Automotive high school vocational programs that build the foundation for young people to build off of like this young man. Great video and good tips I will be showing my advanced welding students! Who knows maybe another will come your way and get after it too.
So ive been one of Tyler's biggest haters for 2 years i somehow missed this video. Watched this morning and gained alot of respect for the man. Great work Great teacher.
Your videos instructors and willingness to teach is unparalleled I went to welding school and had some great teachers myself but they csnt compare to you guys I'm trying to get into the pipefitters and working on 5g right now 6g isnt so hard 5g is the tough spot
Awesome video right here! Great tips I definitely learned a few things. Do you guys have any advice on beveling pipe to practice with if you don’t have a beveling machine? I’ve noticed some jobs opening up for pipe welders where I am so I bought some pipe to practice but I’ve just been beveling with a grinder and it definitely takes quite some time to get it really slick.
Thanks guys like i said i am an old pipeline welder i worked in the US years ago and now for my sins i teah welding back home in Ireland if were a young man in the USA looking to become a welder i would be at your door 😊
Excellent sir. I watched twice and I notice something to help my welding techniques and improve also on how 6g position to be weld nice and smooth💪💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️
Be nice to have some idea of the heat settings used here and show the penetration and tie ins inside this completed joint. Otherwise great instruction on some methods used for doing the 6G welding process on what (appears to be Schedule 40 pipe).
Buddy is obviously the real deal and has been doing this at the highest levels for a long tint.... with that said lol....ive never seen someone use 2 speed squares to square a flange to the pipe. I mean hell you can only move your tape 2" from where you got your original number to compare it to. It would be more accurate, easier, faster, and only needs 1 person to just whip out that torpedo level lol. I can't stress enough that this but is clearly the real deal though and I'm sure he could teach me more than I could teach him for damn sure.... but that double speed square off the flange thing is for the birds 😅😅😅😅
@Western Welding Academy I have an idea. I welcome the feedback, good or bad. I see you do 2 layers (is that the right term?) of welding. Could you weld with 1 rod for a short length then use a second new rod in parallel with the other rod to start the second layer? Then when the first rod is used up, use the second rod to do the 1st layer of weld and a new rod for the second. Then repeat this until both layers are done. Is that possible? I can video chat you to try an explain it with visuals if you want.
