I came to welding school with no knowledge about it and I can say I’m pretty decent on mig and stick but tig not the prettiest 💀but I’m definitely trying this out. Thanks!
Slick primo.....gotta take care of them eyes also....dont strain them and keep blinking at times....use right and left hands also.....respect from navajo nation in arizona.....
@@TheWeldLab Keep it up, welder brother! You're doing a great job. Dont let some people dismay you. Or as I call them slag. You know how to deal with slag. 👍👍
Didn't know about this feeding technique. Have seen it but can't understand what was going on. You explained it really well. Very helpful, thanks a lot. Buen trabajo, saludos desde España
great explanation. Basically let it freeze ever so slightly in the puddle, reset your feed hand at the same time bring the tig back to place thus starting the process again. This should take you on a second or 2 max.
My friend you have no idea how many times I've hunted for a video like this. I'm in school atm for tig and they want us to feed 1 way and I suck at it. I'm definitely going to try your way seems easier. Thank you
Man, you should start your own Welding School, and register with the Workforce Development or Unemployment Office in your State! Your are really good at Instructing. They will pay for the students that they send your way. You name your tuition price (per student) and State and Federal Money will cover the Students' tuition. I started my own Trade School called Abate-Tech, where I teach Welding, Fire and Water Damage Restoration, and Asbestos Abatement, and the State didn't bark at the price I charged per student. This way you have money coming in even in between jobs!
Good video! Ive seen some dudes do some scratch start when tigging, some how the light off with the wire and the tungsten. Would love to see this explained
Fantastic video buddy 👍! You explained it very clearly. Could you do a more in-depth video on all the equipment and how to hook up the sa200 for TIG? Thanks again for sharing.
I’m struggling with just the 1/4” open gap feed. I always get it stuck or I’ll be making craters you can live in. I’m trying this technique for sure Monday. Great channel and thank you for the content!
bro spot on stuff there's a lot of content for beginner welders but not for the skilled guys trying to self teach themselves pipe your doing a great service im good with carbon with tig and stick but alloys are difficult for me do you have any good stainless and duplex stuff? chrome?
Good explaining man understand everything bro should be an instructor Never seen this technique smart man climbing up the wall freeze it then feed I've seen some crazy techniques but not this
As a code welder in OZ, coming from a Sheet Metal background and going to Boilermaking. I have found it a lot easier to have the filler wire in an outside fill position, no landing, 1/2- 1mm gap and 3.2 wire, while using techniques that have come from purge welding SS pipe/heavy SS sheet freehand(no cup walking/weave), blows most Boss minds to how it can be done with 100% pass on testing, as it is not used in the heavy steel industry. Can you try it and see what you think as an experienced welder?
@@TheWeldLab It is not really a dip technique as feeding the filler into the molten pool to create the desired root height and not poke raw wire through the pool and past root and to be honest I have found that faster is not always better.
Ohh I don’t think I ever seen someone do that ..you know if there is a video on RU-vid now ? I’ll like to go check it out..yeah. ...yeah on the field I’m all about quality and production..
@@TheWeldLab Have not found none of it, must be an Australian thing as no one else seems to know either. After nearly 30 year of doing it is hard to explain as it is one of those second nature type thing, but here goes. It is like purging 3-4 mm SS sheet and getting the same result both sides(tho it is quicker to double TIG it(two torches used at same time on opposite sides-connecting moltin pools together with only one side feeding wire)). And you are right there has to be a balance of quality to quantity to the rate you charge your self out at, eg. an xray coded welder here for steam line work is about $250+/h as a business and as tradie working for some one is about $70/hour, and that is a decent speed price (walk faster than cheaper) and not go hell for leather speed-not enough money. Hope this helps, it is finding what works for you and still reaches code.
@@TheWeldLab hey bro can you also do a video on the scratch start doing tig of your sa 200 how to start with the flick of the rod you know i have always wondered how to do it.
Ey this is a bad ass video they didn’t even teach me that in school lol.... but wat I want to get in to is that I have a sa 200 I wanna Lear the setting like what amps would u use for root on a 3/16 gap hot and cap can you please let me know!!🙏🏻
thanks lol i actually don’t have that much of a deep voice lol my wife clowns me at times i jjust try to talk as clear as possible foe yall to hear me thanks tho bro
