Jodie You are literally the guy that got me into welding. I was working at a fab shop as the cold saw operator and I watched a few of your videos one night and thought hell yeah I want to do that, so I asked the boss if I could learn to tig as we delt with stainless steel. It's been 2 years now and I've bought all of my own equipment and I own my own fab shop. I can mig and tig quite well now and I love what I do. Thanks for the videos mate they were literally the start of my new life.
Jodie, I've been watching your videos for the past five years. You provide an amazing service by doing this channel. I know it has helped me and others to better enhance our skill set. Keep'm coming n keep welding! 👍
and old, worn-out cable-hose assembly leads to pulsating stucking of wire and the negative pole clamp needs some help sometimes, thought about that? Jody is very very good and experienced, but it always seems like he uses nearly new equipment. My mig-wilder (and the cable hose) are thirty years old - that makes a difference boys ...
Yeah where i am from (Estonia) euro test welding exam pieces are 30 cm in lenght 8 mm thick 30 degree angle and landing about 2 mm edges. And you have to stop and restart requiring you to grind the starting point, so that it wont be strongly visible from the root side. You think its easy but without much practice its not.
Another great video. I can't explain in words how beneficial your videos are to me. They are so consistent with great knowledge (for a newer welder like myself). I acquired my 2yr degree for welding 6/2023 and been working since. Thanks again, keep up the great work ❤❤❤
Last time I did downhill MIG on a video you would have thought I ran over a box full of puppies. Your cut and etch didn't look like it was going to fall apart to me. I would say either method here should provide good results.
Hello, it’s always nice to learn something new from you, can you ask to remove the roller of the angular horizontal ceiling seam with flux-cored wire in 3 passes ?
Was welding 2mm steel inner wing to old 1970 1mm wing on a classic BMW today. Cleaned the edges and bevelled as much as I could do with the thing weak metal on the car. Anyway for some reason I tried both ways and yep downhill much nicer. uphill was blowing holes in the metal.
great videos, I about to start my first real welding project. (boxing in a frame on a car and installing a mustang II front end) and your tips and tricks are valuable to learn. btw. anyone tell you that you look and sound like Kenny Wallace.
very nice video Jody, i do a different technique for the uphill root, more of a U motion with gun angle pointing down a bit to weld on top of the puddle
Please tell me how best to lead the seam, keep your hand straight and wave your brush to the left to the right, or keep the brush straight and move your hand to the left to the right. Or do you help with your left hand?
Been a big fan of your stuff for a while. Helped me a ton in welding school. I cannot find anything on yt about weld capping square or rectangle tubing. Im specifically wanting to cap .065 wall thickness, mild steel 1x2 tube. see stuff for pipe, just not tubing. Hope you can help!
Odd question for you but maybe some time could we see a shot with you in it welding from behind? Give us a little better idea of what kind of body position you are using. Sure wish my old eyes could see the puddle in person as well as you are able to show here on YT. Thanks!!
sometimes if you keep watching people mig weldingor watch people weld in real life and you can weld nexttime and if you keep watchingmore and more and more videoas of welding you will not be a geginer but im still a beginer thats why i keep wathing 298 videos every day or every week or mounth
Hey Jody love your videos. Iv been watching for 5 years. Bought a Lincoln 210MP 3 years ago and love it. I have some repairs coming up on a broken cast iron housing and some thin .08 aluminum boat hull to modify. Should i add the tig option to my 210MP or buy a dedicated tig machine? What tig machines would you recommend? Thanks for your time.
Hi All!! amazing videos like ever , but at min: 5:19 uses a liquid for revelate the penetration , what liquid is? or where can i buy one? Thanks for the info!
Great video as usual. Thanks for the inspiration. Been to the weldmonger store and trying to find the best gas lens kit for my square wave 200. Anyone have any suggestions? #17 torch, mostly aluminum.
Can you do a helmet review and camera view tests please. I am unable to see my puddle welds when welding with a mig. I dont have much money but if money is what is totally required then I will change. can you do a review on cheap verse expensive helmets if you CAN.???? I only have a cheap auto dimming helmet at the moment.
Hello, I have great difficulty seeing the seem while welding, how can I make sure that I can see the seem better ... my weld beads would be much straighter
Ya know, to me it's never actually the welding that's difficult and important. It's the prep work that makes a good or bad weld. But, that's just my opinion.
