Abe and his good rig welder friend Stephen weld out a bell hole to show how temperature and settings transfer from a motor driven Lincoln SA 200 to an electric Miller XMT 304 and vice versa.
Great video guys holler out from south ga started my welding business in 93 at 23 years old I've got 6 sa200 and sa250 520 vantage lincoln suitcase I'm just a Lincoln fan
On my PipePro 304 I set the machine on 230 and keep the arc force on 70. Adjust fine current on the remote then of course but set my max to 230 on the faceplate. Don’t got time to be climbing out of the ditch to change that arc force between passes. 70 on the dig dial seems to work all around for me as far as getting the puddle characteristics I like. To each their own tho for sure 🤙🏻
I run a Miler PipePro 304. It's basically a 12k generator running a XMT 304. It welds awesome. I do mostly stick, but do run my Miller 8vs for self shielded and dual shield and it does great also i do lots of aluminum with my spoolmatic 30a off Pipe Pro 304. 4,200hrs on it and still kicking ass
here in finland we use a different style remote, its a small remote with a wheel you just spin with your thumb, for me i prefer that style cause you don't really need a buddy with you all times
Alex Flores puddle consistency either it’s freezing up too much which needs to go up in heat, or if it’s running or too watery needs to go down in heat
What brands of rods do yall use when welding pipe? I don't know if it's been mentioned, but usually it's only specified if it's 6010/7010/8010/7018. Do you have a preference for rod brand?
went to an auction at a shipyard, there were dozens of those machines burned out or unfixable. they won't stand up to that kind of constant use. small shop no problem
A little late to the party here but it is called a bell hole also, on a 6g is an Arkansas Bell hole. Every hand pretty much calls this a bell, maybe shop rockets refer to it as 5g but anyone with field experience will most likely refer to this as a bell in my experience. 🤙🏻
