TIG THIN - heavy hertz (16ga Aluminum Welding) 

Awesome Rush, just got done running some 16ga aluminum butt joints yesterday, love your enthusiastic and informative explanations you put at bottom of screen, stay the tig pioneer that you are ,brother!

Awesome details! If anyone learns any of these tips on their own, you know how valuable the information is. Dialling in a setup for aluminum , if learning it all on your own, takes a lot of time!

Excellent as always Rush. It's amazing how dead steady your hands are when your doing work. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome, I like the subtitles. I have to pause and screen shot regularly but an information dense 5 mins is 👌 and the table tennis analogy made sense, but I’ll have to try it understand it better. Thanks for sharing 👊

Beautiful work as usual, Rush. Could watch this all day. In fact I did that one day when I was laid up watching your vids🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for the lesson!

It must be verrrry subtle..looks like your torch angle never changes. Almost like there’s no torch rotation as you advance. Love your welds and the little nuggets that help me progress bit by bit.

Your a master of the craft 🙌 love your videos post more lol

Cool videos man. I hope your work is cool with you doing the videos. Helps me a ton when I weld.

Thx for the explication about frequency ! Great job as usual.

If I were trying to weld that aluminum, it would end up looking like swiss cheese. I can't even start the arc without blow through on 1/16" aluminum. And I've tried ever possible setting I could think of too... Thumbs Up!

I'm curious what wave form and balance you use and at what amperage? Your welds look incredible!

I don't know if its true or not, but I feel like the higher frequency also makes for a cleaner weld.

As always, great vid. Where did you acquire the DCT products? Direct from the company? I found their website but there's nothing there about where to buy.

Awesome videos. What gloves do you use? Sometimes I see your gloves have extra protection on your index fingers in your videos and I've been looking for gloves just like that.

Стильно так, перчатки интересные👍

Man I wish I could weld like that .. the only thing I get is buggers n holes.. lol I like the was u use ur fingers to dab ur filler .. ima beginner with a primeweld ( just purchased 2 days ago n I’m struggling. ) already went through 2 bottles n a bunch of scrap tube . Just gonna keep playing with the settings . Hardest part for me is getting that puddle started . Every time I add filler it stems to crusty buggers..

Curious as to if u can lay down the same quality dimes minus the foot pedal and with a thumbroll switch???

@kanekid are you using 1/16 tungsten?

Nice work man 👍 Seems everyone Loves to either Weld Aluminium or learn how to Weld Aluminium. The worst part of Welding Aluminium is having somewhere to rest your hand. Where it won't get hotter than part your Welding 🥵

0:55 Skin effect where the the electrons travel in a thin surface of the material. The higher the frequency the shallower the penetration of the electricity( the core of the conductors carries no electricity curent from 60htz and higher frequencies) this applies to your table tennis analogy

What's the best way to get rid of the white, several ways I have tried. High grit polish buffing wheel, the best so far. But still rounds of the edges of weld. Seen a machine that took the black off stainless, from wire welding. Of course sand blast with fine medium. Try to dial the white out. Can't always do that. Just seeing other ways to get rid of the white oxidation. Awsome vid as always. I'm good at finish work. Making something look like it has never been welded. Time consuming to do all that to remove the white oxide layer. red scotch bright with the grain.

Muito bom

That gas lens leaves a super wide cleaning line. I wonder if with a standard cup you could back off frequency a bit and maintain the same stability?

When will there be the Welding Olympics?? lol

These bad boys getting anodized when you're done?

Amperage?

Seems like way too much torch angle but I guess I have a lot to learn

Please try that on 18gauge without inverter machine.

Buy a positioner

.

This isn't thin at all
