Anybody else spot the guy falling at 14:22 haha interesting line of work here work safe 🤙🏼

@toddray4549 4 года назад

Good eye my friend. I went back to check it out, but in my defense I'm looking at my phone screen.

@Mikefngarage 2 года назад

welding is already hard to get a perfect weld. Then you factor in you lying on a bed of rocks upside down. Spray falling in your face. In the cold. And still it needs to be just as perfect at the one done on the welding table......YOUR THE MAN

@jaycenbair280 5 лет назад

Started welding at a business here in my hometown in Missouri at 12 years old. 18 years old right now and still employed for the same man. Headed to welding school this fall then it's off to pipeline work.

Awesome video thanks for taking me along. I have seen those crews in WV when I go riding ATVs at the Hatfield McCoy trail system down there. I thought it was WV crews doing the welding I didn’t know you travelled that far away.

@wvjeepguy8178 Год назад

We didn't have the trained labor force here in WV to do our own work when the pipeline was booming, so people came in from all over the country. Now that things have slowed down bigtime, we should have a lot more WV people out there, but unfortunately these companies hire their friends and family first and locals only get scraps.

I live near Rainelle and worked on the MVP for 3 years. Everything has been shutdown waiting in the courts to get these permit issues settled.

@erictrust3409 4 года назад

Quick question, what's it like having someone else grind your welds? I'm not a fan of having any one grind out my welds, unless I've had a fitter with me for awhile. Do you tell your helper how you like your root or hot passes ground out before you start with them, or do you see what they do before you say anything. I'm not a pipeliner local 9 nj here just curious.

@dylandoe8112 3 года назад

Do you brush or use grinder after every weld or you only grind the rack. And anything that has slag?

@brantlyadair5495 3 года назад

Im curious about pipeline work, do they pay you by the hour? Is it a single bid they pay you for the overall job? Do you get paid for the in between waiting times? Does it depend on the job? and if so what are some different ways they pay? Thanks guys :)

@chyennebillings1496 4 года назад

So this is totally irrelevant to this video but the question I have just popped into my head as I watched this particular one ..( I've watched about every one of your videos I think lol) so question I have is would you consider a making a video on your personal opinion on women pipeline welders. How many if any have you come across if any and how are they treated as far as on the line.. I'm very curious your over all thoughts on it. Would u encourage women to go for it and if so any specific tips for women going into the pipeline as a beginner ,no experience wanting to run her own rig one day ? Thank you SO SO MUCH your info and opinion is valued greatly. Keep up the videos

@arosswelding 4 года назад

I will take note a video around this topic. But right off hand, I would def say go for it if your interested. I’ve known about a handful of women rig welders. Several women helpers.

@wvjeepguy8178 Год назад

Most guys hate working around women on the pipeline because you have to worry about everything you say. If one of em overhears a dirty joke they don't like, they can get you fired instantly. It makes the whole job miserable, especially considering some women are constantly going out of their way to find drama.

@jstrano1978 5 лет назад

Maybe a stupid question, but I’m curious: Once the pipe is welded does the whole unit flex while it is laid back into the trench or is is still very rigid? I see you guys with pipes up in the air in slings and was always curious. I appreciate a clarification. Awesome videos!!!

@Wavyink 5 лет назад

Depends on the wall thickness, .250 wall and under looks like cooked spaghetti when it’s picked up in a big string.

@bowtac16 5 лет назад

If familiar with the hills in WV, might be a dumb question, but does the grade of pipe fo anything to weld pool? Or is it like always welding in a 6g haha

@arosswelding 5 лет назад

I’m not sure I understand your question.

@bowtac16 5 лет назад

@@arosswelding sorry, just referring to the steep angle of the pipe. Wondering if you have to account for it or not while putting a bead in.

@arosswelding 5 лет назад

Yes you have to make different motions and such ya. Def account for the angle.

@toddwhitehair3378 4 года назад

Hi Austin I never see you chip the slag off your welds. Does it just fall off as your welding????????? I have seen it where the slag does just practically fall off or peel off the welds. Is that the case here? I was just curious. I really like your videos !! Especially since we live in the gas well and pipeline area of Ohio.

@arosswelding 4 года назад

No my helper buffs my weld every time I make a pass. Down hill slag will not peel off like 7018. But it still comes off pretty easy if it’s welded correctly.

@mikesfarmmikesfarm3977 5 лет назад

are pipes like that mostly done all stick ? No tig roots ? 6010 then 7018 ?

@kalebmcdaniel9147 Год назад

Pipe is never rig welded in these situations it takes too long all pipelines are 6010 root and often 8010 or 6010 cap unless it’s above ground then it’s usually 7018

@melvinmariott8609 4 года назад

Why was y'all welding down hill on the pip?

@arosswelding 4 года назад

That’s what most main lines are welded with. It’s a little “faster” and it holds up to the wind better than uphill rod.
