TIG Welding Techniques - Coped Tube Overhead 

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Thank you for everything you do.

Even the “bad” weld are amazing. Wow. Wish I could donthat

Nice video Jody, let me tell ya you look in great shape for 61. Happy thanksgiving from the UK

Just wished to come to Atlanta to meet you, but too far from Florence, Italy :-( you are a great teacher

Thank you Jodi! Im building a cage right now out of 1.75x.120 tubing and I keep having to revert to my mig welder for the difficult notches. These videos really help me. Much appreciated

Jody, the drag racing world is 90% .083 CM, please do a follow up with the thinner metals, your insight is always so helpful.

Hi Jody, I am from South Africa........your videos are so interesting and educational that I went out and bought a TIG welder. Please keep the awsome videos comming !

Great video, I had to use my tig finger just the other day. Really happy I had it.

You are the prettiest welder I've ever seen. ( your welds I'm talking about )

Hi Jody excellent video sure wish they had this kind of stuff when we were starting out when we were kids I'm like you close to the end of my career you retiring soon for my present job but I enjoy your products I bought several and I will continue to support you

Hello！We are the manufacturer of laser welding/cutting/cleaning/marking machine, did you need these kinds of equipments in production ? Thanks.

What's that thing you were stepping on we did handrails before but I never seen that thing you were stepping on

I would like tig weld some brewery tri fittings in a Beer keg...how to back purge ....and how to set up the weld fitting ?....drill 2" hole and just place 2" fitting in hole.????

Don't know what I'd do without your vids. I sure hope Jody has grandkids that develop an interest in welding. Make for some awesome bonding

first time ive heard of multiple passes for roll cage tubing. what about for .120 DOM tubing?

i could leave this comment on any video but i leave it here. why in usa you use only foot pedal or scratch start? the company i am working for and almost everyone in my counry uses button to start on torch, every time we come to install something in usa there is someone asking wtf is that? a button in a torch?? and someone even is like holy shit that`s revolutionary a button! i mean the pedal is good for some jobs but what if you have to move around the object when you weld it? do you move the pedal every time? and if you use the scratch start what you do if you need a perfect electrode tip all the time? by no means i love your videos but i need answer to this :)

Jody, we're the same age. How come you look way better than I do? Love your videos.

I would love to see you using a foot pedal welding inside a car upside down

nice video - the tig finger is the rest? using your last two fingers to be the support? hard to see your body position - thanks

Would you do 2 passes on .083 chromoly tubing?

Hi Jody, I am intrested in your DVD collection but, do you have your welding Dvd's in a download version? I haven't used DVD players in years. I'm sure i can pick one up very cheap but I rather have them saved in my hard drive or my USB. My laptop (Mac) doesn't even have a dvd player anymore. Thank you.

Hope you make videos with thin tube.

What size filler and thickness of tungsten???

Hi Jody, i would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the time and effort you devote to making videos to share a lifetime of knowledge with everyone out there willing to learn about our trade, never quit rolling out the quality work you do,i certainly learn every time i watch my weekly video, regards Hannes Nel all the way from Pretoria South Africa

Hi Jody, you are great teacher. And the videos are fun and not boring. BRAVOOOOOO

I'm a beginner aluminum TIG student and I keep fouling the tip. I've been trying to keep a close arc but even with the lanthanated tungsten I'm still going to the grinder too many times to clean and sharpen. Could it be the gas flow (what is your setting for aluminum?) or contaminated gas? I've heard of whole tanks being polluted but other than that, I"m using the #6 ceramic cup, standard issue and I can't get my welds perfect.

Hi Jody, great videos, I really enjoy watching and learning how the pros with experience share their experience and feel I'm picking up lots of tips to try and bring me on with my welding skills... Just a quick question, do you deliver to the UK as I've seen lots of great things in your videos I'd love to order... Would you be willing to post as "samples" or "gifts" for import tax purposes once I order... Looking forward to your reply. Dan

Tilhink you Your the best 👌👌👌

If I had any money, you'd be taking it all off me with videos like this !!! Gotta get me some TIG Fingers and torch parts soon.

Brilliant video mate. Very informative as usual 👍

What are you using to video the welding? Very clear shots!

Hi Jodi, why dose my arc wander like lightning. It moves off the weld path so being useless. I know you probably need more circumstantial description so fire back to me. Thanks for the vids. Regards John

Those tig fingers are the best thing ive ever used.. i still use mine daily.. i have 5 now thanks to you.. i believe every welder should have a tig finger..

Got my tig finger yesterday. Cheers from Australia! Jodie, my tig machine now n then makes a weird noise. Like chewbacca from Star Wars lol. Kind of a groan. Can’t see anything wrong. Anyone have a similar noise occur. It doesn’t interfere with the arc. Its a CIG Transtig 150.

Those 'dimes' like pretty good to me, Jody...but I haven't Tig welded for 14 odd years...Never 'pulsed' myself, never used that pedal only scratch start too....These videos make me want to go out and 'melt something'....

I need some help. Im trying to figure out what size wire i will need to support a 240v 50amp service. The distance it will need to cross is about 150-200 feet.

Jody, how do you judge "correct heating" based on the look of the inside of the tube? I heard this term on a video about welding DOCOL tubing by ME racing Sweden..

Hey Jody, I’m actually flying out to Texas on 12/10 for a job weld test! Now I have done flux core but they’re asking for some thick wire action. 1/16 flux on one inch, any tips to handle the jump?

Please send a kit of nozzle gas LANs for torch from 19 to 26 for me, here in Brazil, I follow the channel from the beginning there, and here mainly it is very difficult to find this kit of nozzles sir, I am a big fan who will give me the chance to learn more there close...

Jody, thanks for all the video content! I just finished watching your MIG basics series videos and have a question. I have NOT yet bought gas for my Hobart, so, are the techniques and process vastly different if I'm using flux core wire WITHOUT gas? I plan to get the gas and try that also, but thought it might be good to start with just flux core. Thanks again, Jim.

It's easy to flow a puddle but is it actually fusing the two joints together or are you supposed to just lay the filler rod over the joint?.

Damn, Do you Have a Camera Build into your Hood?

I wish I could weld 1\10 as good as you. I need some training big time. I love playing with my welder and working on my Jeep (loads of rust 👎) I have some frame work and floor pans to do. GREAT VIDEO!!

You could have walked that around that saddle also, or rocked it back n forth, kind of a combination depending on where yr at on the pipe...

When you're actually inside the chassis at a awkward angle do you still try to weld with a pedal or do you go 2T/4T?

UK loving this vid.. Had to share with other young peeps who didnt understand it.. so i wana pass on this great vid.. were not here for long. .. so mite as well pass it on :)

The last method is the best one, I used last 15 years in naval yachting industry. Stainless Steel polished structures

Those are some awesome welds. If I buy supplies from weldmonger.com will mine look that great too?

guao guao guao que linda manera de utilizar esta linda soldadora al tig me da mucha envidea muy linda la esplicacion y com que facilidad que lo hace claro para el que sabe hacerlo mucho respeto maestro muchos saludos

Puedes hablar en español

As always wicked good stuff believe it or not I’ve taken what u put out in videos and use them out in the field thanks

5:08 thats f'in sweet jody

Muy bien tu técnica de soldeo, pero si hablaras en español sería mejor

Wow! Are you offering any classes/boot-camps for Tig and Mig??

Any tips or tricks to “mig” welding coped pipe joints?

Hello Jody I am 17 years old and i've been watching you for four years through out my high school. I gotten to projects on my sophomore year and i wanted to thank you for taking you're time to make these videos for us. I am extremely thankful for you Jody thank you so much! Have a good day :) I Hope you had a great thanksgiving!!

Gooday Jody from Down-under, thank you very much for all your work that goes into the videos. As a home welder I enjoy watching them and appreciate your professionalism and good grace to educate one and all. Keep up the great work. Best Regards Reid Lowe

Happy thanksgiving to you and yours, Jody. If I hadn't already bought a tig finger or three for my co-workers and myself, I'd jump on that bundle.

what cfh are you using with the tungsten sticking out that far?

Perfect timing! Should strike an arc on my roll cage tomorrow

Wow! I am surprised to find out your 61 I figured probably 50. You have the hand steadiness of a brain surgeon.

Very helpful and informative thank you sir

I like to learn how to weld with that , is very nice and you do it very good and nice my friend

Great views as always. Would it be too much to ask, that sometimes you might scuf your filler wire and/or the root of the joint. Sometimes it's hard to tell how much wire you are feeding as you move ahead. I think if the filler wire had surface texture, it would help. Thanks.

Thanks for the great video Jody lots of good information . got to get me one of those dual flow meters. Have a happy Thanksgiving

This is what I do everyday at work. (Tubing)

Thank you..., your a good conveyer of information

Great video as usual Jody. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I have my dynasty 400 up and running and weldmonger has outfitted my speedway 320 along with a flex lock 230. Thank you so very much. Now I just need to get behind the hood and burn brother! PS STOP SELLING ME STUFF! I have enough consumables to tig the titanic together! Lol

Wow !!!

Hello Jody, is everything ok?

Where you at Jody I got to get my welding fix

Thanks you are very helpful and a great instructor, wish you and your family happy thanksgiving, Saudi Arabia

Still killing it Jody, Have to say for someone who never does manual pedal pulsing gotta be happy with them results.

Real welder

Man have I got a lot of practicing with my everlast welder to do. You make these look so easy.

beautiful work

Great vid as always Jody .. don’t forget to suggest settings for us beginners . inspiring !

Boas soldadoras, gosto de aprender as mesmas. Obrigado..

Nice work

Boas soldadoras, gosto de aprender as mesmas. Obrigado..

Please tell me, is TIG welding with carbon dioxide possible ?

Jody, Have you tried using 312 or 309 on the cover pass like Frank does?

Thanks for another great lesson.

I love your videos. I always get inspired to go practice in hopes of being able to do a amazing job as you do. Your videos are very helpful and the welding shots are great

Ahha

So just to clarify, looks like the Furick #12 ceramic will work with a stubby gas lens on a 17 torch? I notice on the web site there is an adapter kit, however it looks like it isn't necessary based on this video. Just wanted to confirm before I made the order. Thanks.

Excellent as always. One of my favorite channels.

Thanks for the great video Jody lots of good information . got to get me one of those dual flow meters. Have a happy Thanksgiving
