Excellent demo. I love that analogy of a car rolling downhill. With MIG, there's no accelerator without stopping, so we usually just drive a little faster as the metal heats up (not ideal because wire speed is not adjustable in real time while on the piece).
That was very helpful in demonstrating and explaining how the pedal is to be modulated along with travel speed. Never heard the car-running-downhill analogy before, and it helped me big time to understand the task at hand. Thanks!!!
Great tips there. I have watched this video several times now and have just realised why my puddle was going so out of control. So many test runs on the same work piece = very hot = out of control puddle! Simples!
Instead of going to the next piece because the metal was now very hot another idea would have been to turn the metal 90' and practice what to do at the end of the piece (as discussed @ 0:48 ).so you can do the entire _next_ piece from beginning to end. These Videos are helpful for beginners and so the rest of us do not have to look at crap. I would like to see more of these including much more advanced Videos. More Dynasty and Aerowave is always welcome; Aerowave (which I have used) starts and end so nicely. Thanks for making this Video.
@TheBoilermakerno1 I learned to weld left handed, So I could see the weld better. It makes push or pull welding to me seem easier to control. It must have helped when I took the single pass test 1/4" grooved aluminum. To get FAA certified many years ago and passed the first time. I was so damn worried about the aluminum test, I almost failed the stainless steel 8% for every 12"
im not new to welding but I have yet to weld aluminium via TIG, I over heat the tung tip till it melts so if you could be so kind Would you tell me what im doing wrong: is it a combo of the amps & gap too much? I know its almost imposiblr to answer without seeing me do it but what gaps and amps did you use in this case.
The ideal weld should be the same strength as the base material itself, if not stronger. If it's weaker, that weld won't pass inspection. Could be a number of things causing problems with a given weld.
