Heat from Welding can move metal around. And that is mostly due to shrinkage. But knowing that fact can help you do choose a weld sequence that helps the part come out straight.

I ran across this video and was so amazed to see someone doing exactly the same thing I did for a living for about 3 years. I learned a great deal about TIG welding 1 1/2 inch square stainless and TIG welding in general from my employer. He covered a great deal of the squaring and shrinkage issues in his instructions to me and I was very happy to learn these skills. I learned even more from this very informative video. I give you a perfect mark for showing accurate and very useful information. Excellent video ! !

Jody, i would never choose another channel. I've learned so much from you. Thank you for your time and effort making these videos!

Thanks again Jody, with all due professionalism and respect to all parties, Mr.Tig is at the bottom of the totem pole here, a true professional at omitting facts as opposed to tried and true methods guys like you practice. thanks again for not bullshitting me

I don't know how to weld, never tried but one day would love to give it a go. I love watching people weld and love seeing a very nice weld after it is done.

@chrisg2739 8 лет назад

Man, I wish I learned to tig weld at a school instead of being self taught. I have so many bad habits. Like I noticed you dab the filler while just moving the tip linearly. I'm the opposite, I move the tip in small swirls while keeping the filler stationary. I am going to have to try that dabbing thing. Thanks as always for the videos.

@davidstothard3739 4 года назад

It’s not just the quality of the welds or the depth of knowledge that impresses - it the generosity of the author. I think the community is grateful to you for all three.

@BeeTriggerBee 8 лет назад

When i went to school we made several V-joints with thick steel, Worked around the shrinkage by placing a MMA stick (OK 48.00) on the starter side, And a bigger electrode on the other side.

@dallashardin1041 9 лет назад

Good video...however...for the people that are just starting out in trying to learn this field, out of all the videos I have seen, nobody discusses duty cycle. I can only wonder how many machines have been returned due to burn out which would give the product a bad rep. You are the best I have seen as far as info and bead lay down...Maybe you could discuss this in your next tuto.

@sandyt4343 8 лет назад

@justinrosen2832 9 лет назад

Great vid, a suggestion, maybe you could do/post a vid where you show how to undo some of the pulling with a post heat. i.e. if it pulls to much out of square you can go in and lightly heat the inner joint to allow the weld stresses on the outside of the corner to pull it back.

@Anthony_aus 7 лет назад

It's such a beautiful thing to watch, it's like art and I want very much to learn how to weld. Hopefully I'll have the funds to do so soon. Great video, mate.

@shodanxx 9 лет назад

Have you seen the high dynamic contrast stereoscopic welding helmet ? Search for "Augmented Reality Welding Mask", it uses multiple cameras so you can have an image where the arc is not overexposed but the rest of scene is not underexposed either. You have some of the best welding videos on youtube but I think this thing could make them even better. You'd probably have to DIY one because I don't think anyone sells those things yet but the hardware can't be all that expensive anyway.

@tysoncrocker4106 8 лет назад

Not to b a picky no it all sounding welder but if u need exact precision from saw to welding n want square on a joint like that sometimes I find saw cutting the tubing a little outa square by a couple degree after welding should b bang on. Looks like that is what was done on that joint. Tacking a joint outa square with a gap in hopes of it pulling in perfect makes for ruff looking welds. If the joint is perfectly square before u start chances r it will pull over outa square. Your a good welder Jody cheers!

@petersack5074 3 года назад

thermal expansion. Try the ' weld and skip ' method. Lay a 1/2 inch bead on one end, flip over, 1/2 inch bead (one bead length long-spaced)on this side. Do this top/bottom. Start at one end, then goto the other end, finishing in the middle. Space out beads, so all are even length across the whole weld distance.

Good vid with great welds from amazing welders 💪

@Wizardi1111 9 лет назад

Very nice tips! I was wondering in what sequence would you weld an actual rectangle to keep deforming to a minimum just like the one at 1:50 . Probably tack weld the whole thing first, but after that do you just weld one part in one corner, and do the same thing for the other corners and then return to the 1st corner and weld the next part and do the same for others. Or should you weld a different part on the opposite corner or flip the square and then weld... confusing I know, but would be awesome if you did a quick video just explaining the order and sequence that you would weld something like that to even out the 'pull' and get the least amount of deformation.

@laurieagnew6706 9 лет назад

hey mate just by chance I saw your comment and my former job was welding complex steel doors and windows to within 2-3mm of squareness using profile sections. method was, first tack it up and make sure your measurements are good side to side/frame is square then clamp it. then weld the sides first ALWAYS. The sequence is pick a corner, then go diagonally opposite and then the adjacent corner and finally you'll move across to the last corner. leaving the clamps on you then repeat the sequence for the top face welding inside to out always as the draw of the material is limited by the fitup this way. Let it cool down before moving the clamps and then flip and repeat. If you follow those steps and are accurate in your initial setup and measurements you'll get square frames every time, hope that helped

@philroo1 8 лет назад

If after cooling the joint has still wider than square, would going over the inside fillet bead again with the torch close the angle more?

@azav8raa 9 лет назад

Jody, awesome video as always. Is the beverage at 6:13 approved by the shop safety rep? You better have enough for everyone...

@jacobe.3329 9 лет назад

Does cooling the work with bursts of air draw it in more than if you were to let it cool naturally to room temperature?

@MFP2241 7 лет назад

What about welding distortion on something a bit more complex, like a steel, round tube, trellis motorcycle subframe? would the use of a jig be enough to control it? I've seen many builders videos in which they don't say a word about nor even seem to actually care about it. They just... weld

@dustin600 9 лет назад

I work at a handrail fabrication shop and we do a little bit of stainless grab bar out of thin gauge 1"1/2 round tubing from time to time and we can't keep it square for nothing. we weld it, cool it, and tweek it square. Is there any way to avoid those steps on that type of material.

@The1badxj 9 лет назад

Jody, I'm really learning a lot with your video's and the TIG FINGER is the coolest tool, pun intended. Keep the video's coming, I have noticed most of your videos your using fresh new metal, I was wandering if you have any advice for tig welding vintage car sheet metal that has been media blasted. or have you ever used the tig torch to heat metal for brazing. Thanks
