Dusty, thank you for all of your informative videos. I’m still learning the art of TIG welding and trying your techniques really make a difference. It may not be a big deal to you but I truly thank you man! You’re awesome!
One of the things I’ve run into working around production companies is thin gage stainless tests. I failed my first one. It was an outside corner to corner no penetration deal. I’ve since learned there are many ways to tackle that test with and without filler.
Fyback backing tape with a purge hose in the end and rolled end will make a huge difference so you can get full penetration and a nice silver gold looking backside. It takes a little more time to set up but it's rewarding seeing a silver/gold roll penetration weld. Hope that helps someone.
Another great one! The video length doesn't matter to me, because your videos are informative and to the point. I'm currently just gathering inspiration from your channel and your experience. I'm hoping to buy a tig machine and take your online class this summer. It's fascinating to me that joining two pieces of metal can actually be a beautiful art form. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us!
Thanks for the video, and the instruction. You are a good instructor. I prefer the longer videos, but the short ones are also very good. Thank you again for your time and knowledge. You are a good dude. Take Care and Stay Safe. Bob
Great video! You are a great instructor and artist. I really enjoy your videos. My nephew lets me use his welder and we are starting to teach ourselves tig welding. These videos help a lot. Thanks for spreading positivity. This world needs a lot more of that!
Gotta say Dusty, your videos are excellent. Really informative and fully detailed, with nothing missed out. Many thanks for the work you put in producing your videos, they're helping me a lot with my Tig endeavours. Cheers. 👍👍
Funny story hey? Maybe she didn’t know it was legal here and there’s literally a store on every corner 😂 And thanks man! Studio is getting out together nicer and nicer:)
Thanks Dusty, excellent video as usual. I think the short form vids are great for going over a specific skill like you did here. Something I might watch to brush up before doing some practice. Longer form have a place too but I do like short for skill-centric stuff. Keep up the good work!
I love this form of content from you! Good length, great amount of information conveyed! Love the closeup of the panel showing amperage throughout the weld especially :))))) long Time viewer, first time commenter
Quicker little clips like this is my vote. Love all your videos so far, but just as preference the shorter are still getting your info and experience across just a little quicker is all
Thank you for your time and knowledge, you are in my top 5 RU-vidrs. Seems like you have a good hart, your right we need more kindness. So did you hook grandma up? Lol
I like the short vids/quick tips. Personally I been working with stainless lately, just got 2 cubes from weldmetalsonline can't wait to run them out. As always your beads look amazing thanks for sharing man.
Anything stainless need to be purged from the back side. When you allow molten ss access to atmosphere it sugars. The outside profile looks fantastic but a #12 cup hides the real problems that might be happening when you use the right size tungsten and cup. Drop down a size and use a smaller cup.
Digging that hoodie brother! Noice! Awesome to see the "merch phase" of the brand beginning! Lemme kno if ur flipping them somewhere, or your website. Good to see ya brother! Nice job!
Dude thank you for your instruction. I have a number of projects that require tig welding. In the US. It is difficult to find a good welder that does good work, at a fair price without a lot of bulls#!+. After following your channel, I feel confident enough to try this on my own. I have never welded before and only have knowledge I've picked up from you and a couple of other "teacher" like you. Thanks. It would help if you could do a video on how someone like me can get started. What is the starting load out
New subscriber..seen a bunch of your videos just subscribed.. so I can kind of mig weld..it gets the job done and holds where needed.. always wanted to learn tig...I've been teetering on "budget" welders.. I've been looking for a mig tig welder.. but most won't do aluminum tig...my understanding is ya need ac/dc for steel and aluminum.. but can't seem to find the combo.. should I just get a budget mig... Then get the budget tig/stick combo? Tryin to stay under 1k
Hey dusty another great video. I'm new to welding so I have a question. Why did you set up for 60 amps to use about 35ish? Wouldn't it be much easier to control your pedal had you set your machine for maybe 40? Thanks in advance!
Hey! The reason I usually set higher than I need to, is because I always get frustrated when I set my machine, and don’t have enough amperage after I’ve started the pass. Better to set it too high, and not use it, than not have enough :-)
I like to use a piece of bronze or aluminium on the back/inside to "steal" some of the heat and to avoid the welding from coming trough, unless if I am going for full welding rote, then I of course use a rail and formiergas.
