In this video I do A 3/8 plate test in the 1G or flat position utilizing the titanium stick 225 I hope you find this video useful and informative please like comment and subscribe thanks#welding
Been watching some of your Stick 225 videos the past couple of weeks and pulled the trigger on one yesterday. Ran some 6013 beads today on 120V (my 220v adapter cord comes in Tuesday) and man this thing is smoooooth! I haven’t stick welded since high school shop class back in 1977 so I wasn’t expecting much, but I actually ran some decent beads, owing more to the DC Stick 225 and the buttery smooth 6013’s than any welding skill I might possess, lol. I can pretty much weld anything that comes up now, my Titanium Easy Flux 125 can handle anything up to 1/4” and the Stick 225 takes over from there, I.e. tractor parts, ag implements, etc. Thanks for the great videos, very informative and entertaining. 👍
Nice job on the video! Did notice some Slag intrusion on the third plate. I just bought on of these welders today that was a return, but I didn't see anything wrong with it. I mean,the leads were still in the plastic wrap! But I don't care, I needed one of my own that I can take anywhere and use standard house current.
Hey thanks for the view and the comment much appreciated so far I've been really happy with my machine I think that you will be very happy with it Also at some point I do definitely want to upgrade the leads
I went to weld school quite a few years ago and graduated with my d 1.1 but ended up going a different path. Did some research and i need to retake my d 1.1 to be recertified. Is there a way to just get the test done without having to go back to school? Im sure there is.
Hey thanks for the comment and the view you can practice at home and go online and look for an accredited AWS testing facility and just pay the fee and take the test and you're good to go Also make sure you find an AWS testing facility that's close to where you live
Hey great question I'm using just plain old regular hot rolled mild steel and the root does bond to the backing bar and I use a cutting torch and a grinder to clean it up
