Excellent points brother. I also teach only 3 tacks but at 9:00 and 3:00 along with 12:00. Will try the 10 and 2 Monday morning at the Training Center to see the difference. Man-cub has improved alot. Kudos kid!
So I did this at our union hall and I can’t believe how easy this was. I put the beat root in I ever did thank you very much I have the beat confidence to past common arc now
Off subject Bob but getting back into what I love after a 10 year break . I’m going back after my AWS structural certs absolutely love your videos I’m using them to remember the small tricks of the trade as well as learning a ton of new ones from you . I’ve built a cutting straight edge of your design and use it almost daily on the job. I have a circle burner I’ve made but I’d like to one of your ideas. Keep it coming I’m watching your videos daily! Thanks for your knowledge Mickey

Second time this has been recommended to me and after my second watch forgetting the music entirely, I think this is the best arc shot to show the full technique of backfeeding the weld pool! Bob and camera guy at their best!
Ive done alot of welding procedures but i have never used tig at all. Ive done FCAW in .045 and 1/16 duel shielded as well as outershield ive done spray and metalcore as well as pipe 6010 root 7018 fill and cap. Ive done oxy fuel welding. But you sir are literally teaching me how to tig weld
Can we get a tutorial on positioning techniques. Might sound basic but some tips on how to move and position yourself before and during the weld would be great.
Wish we could do a 5/32 gap. The UA 63 code says we can’t have more then 1/8th or less then a 1/16th root gap. I’ve been looked out over running a 5/32 but it goes in soo much nicer
@@Jeremiah90526 Arches in my feet were falling. Steel shops was getting too hard to make a living in. Then age was creeping up on me. Thank you for asking.
@@dinohudson1432 Did you buy a welder for home just to keep at it, as a pass time? Or would that be like going from being a starter in the Major Leagues to playing in a Church League? Also, if you got your full Mastery in it, do you teach, because it sounds to me like while your body is done your spirit isn't. Sorry for the questions, I just know a lot of guys that love something and will just give it up completely when they can't go at it full time anymore. It is something I understand a bit as injuries have left me unable to do some of the more interesting and fun things I did when I was younger, but I found that teaching these things helped alleviate some of that sense of loss.

@@Jeremiah90526 Yes... purchased Mig years ago sold and purchased just a flux core Lincoln. still have, and always run it fast & hot. Never had a Tig always used job machines. Was a fabricator and machine operator. First job as a welder using an aluminum spool gun, was a very hot job, but loved it anyway. Favorite thing to do was acetylene brazing. As far as teaching... Would love to have had the opportunity to work with kids. At this point..I probably could teach better than I can weld.
@@dinohudson1432 That is good, as for teaching, you can try offering intro lessons in your local community center. Just a thought. Anyway, here is to the life of a welder, and to running it hot until your body is cold.
Hey what is that positioner stand thing you are using? The school I work at is starting up a pipe program and I would like to try to get some of these stands for our weld booths.
Hi Bob- A few questions, please- Root pass amperage? Filler rod? didn't look like ER70S2. How would you test this coupon- UT, Xray,?? Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Interesting background music. I had to turn the sound down in case someone walked by thinking I was watching something else! I can't wait to try this weld with my new water cooled torch on my Everlast tig welder!
Hi Bob, just how thick are the walls of this pipe coupon either in thou of an inch or millimetres? Angle of the individual bevels and combined? You mentioned the spacing but what was the land?
Which one are you getting? I have the 141 STL and the 252 STi. Still can't call what I do to metal Tig welding. Most of my TIG still looks like bird turd.
I got a question. Are you able to weld all the way around from 6 all the way to 12 o clock without adjusting the tree? Once you set the work up you can’t move it right? I always have a problem when I am welding I can do 6 to about 10 then it gets too high and I need to stand on something. But if I lower it then it’s too low for me to do 6 o clock. Anyone got any suggestions?
Don't tell me what to not do :P You are ripped, grown up and you seem to have a job. Where would you go to get some good scraps for cupons? I'm still in my studies for becoming a welder, and I don't have much of dat cheddar stacked for fun things like practice. Shwt awt to Mancub!
This weld is easy as hell try a stainless drip root Edit: you can walk the cup on this entire weld if you know what you’re doing, seems like he’s making it out to be more complex then it really is and if you don’t wanna grind the tacks just go over it a little then walk the cup backwards over it again and then forward again back over it and that should do the trick easiest way is to just thin the tacks with a grinder tho

Great explanation of why you spend more time on the top of the weld - so the metal will sag into the right profile as it cools.

You did the easy part. The hard part is filling it up. Keeping the full passes straight and at the proper height is the hard part for me.
Exactly! That’s what I wanna see! The fill and cap

What do you think of that machine? I'm thinking of getting one seems like a good starter machine

Those Prostar torches make sweet sweet music 👌👌
@@Welddotcom I think he's talking about the high frequency sound
Great video as usual guys! How would you do fill passes on such a huge gap?
Multiple stringers
I do root and immediately go to second to last fill cap and crank that mf to 220
What's the best coupon size for beginners to suite the 6g spec?
What amps are you running to rack or the root?
Would it hurt to use a slight back and forth movement
To run one of those longer cups do you have to get a different colit and stuff or can you use the same rig set up as the short normal cups
This is a really good channel i learn a lot. Thanks Bob.
I love this channel ! Especially with the new background music ! 🧑🏭
Just a sparky here, happened to stumble across this from a buddy who welds
Is that pipe jig home made or did you buy that some where?
Do you push the filler wire in, or just keep it at the edge of the puddle?
TIA
Greetings from Texas...
Hold it on leading edge. Push very little.
@@bobmoffatt4133 Got it
Thanks👍👍

My buddy was just showing me the backfeed last week while we were at school. He used this technique to pass his UA 25
Hi Bob-
A few questions, please-
Root pass amperage?
Filler rod? didn't look like ER70S2.

Can you tack it the same way if it was a 2" ss sch 40 coupon in 6g position?
What is the welding current parameter?

Thanks for the support!
beautiful technique.
U leaving out a lot of info
1. What temp are u using
2. What tig cup are u using
It's thick pipe. You can weld as hot as you need. Cup size is for titties.
Any tips on running 211 wire?
Could I grind down the root pass that way it the hot pass doesn’t pick any trash up?
Yes.
Good job man cub. Ha!
Nice video , and can you tell us about that pipe stand your using ? Like the brand , and name maybe where to buy one .

do you know what is the code on asme xl?

Lol monster...it's shed 160, or double Xtra heavy
Have you used a pipe liners pancake welding shield no reflections feather lite and more comfortable try one 🐤🙌.
is that a a stainless wire on on mild?

Looks like it
Left and right hand welders is hard to find
No shot of the inside?
Ok o senhor tem muito conhecimento 👏👏👏
hit the foot pedal inadvertently is the most important step we all do that lol
4:35 is that a crack on the top?
Yeah, a little piping porosity we call it. Weld metal solidifies too quick in a big gap if you don't come out of it slow. My bad. Good eye.
