Brandon, plug welding is also useful for broken bolts or studs, to get them out. As for the backer plate, this is necessary on auto body repair as it draws the heat from the weldment, and helps to prevent buckling and distortion. Flattening a piece of copper pipe is a good source, and can be bent to the shape of the weldment, but one needs to be careful to make sure it isn't painted as that could make smoke. An end plate for tig welding is good for scratch start tig, and usually cleans up well when finishing up.
🙏Thank you B for addressing my previous question about the 205ds 🙏. It helped immensely. Glad I didn't goof up the machine 😅. Have a great weekend buddy,, cheers 🍻 G.
Hi, Brandon! Very good information and I am going to use this on a project that I am working on. Trying to repair a hole in a pipe that I put a hole in it!!! Melted it when I tried to bend it!!! I think this will be useful!!! You have such good information!!! Thank you so much!!!
Thanks Jim. This right here is why I like working with metal Vs wood. I'm never too good to make a big mistake and it's much easier to fix mistakes in metal than it is with wood lol.
Hey Brandon do you have a video mig welding thick and thin metal together such as an exhaust hanger to exhaust pipe? I would like to do a continuous weld like factory, I’m working with none stainless steel, great video my friend 👍😁
I cant remember if i do Dave. I think i might need to make one though. Keep the heat focused mainly on the hanger then quickly move over to the pipe. It wont take long for the pipe to soak up all that heat from the hanger so dont camp out long on the pipe. Weave it in quickly. Ill do a video real soon. Thank you for the idea.
good video. if you can do that in alum. on japan engine and carb. parts. would be great a lot of mechanics will not work on them any more because the alum.threads come out with the steel bolts or spark plugs. take care, be safe and well.
I made gate handles by plug welding 1/2 rebar to a 1 inch wide plate then plug welded a second plat that is 2 inches wide and this plate is attached to the fence with lag bolts. No unsightly welds.😁🛫
Hi Brandon. As usual, another excellent video. I've done several plug welds in the past but, I've always used stick (because that's what I had). I used to weld a bead, stop, chip slag, wire brush, and weld some more. Based on what I'm seeing, I'm guessing those extra steps were unnecessary. (?) Also, I've never seen a welder that wouldn't let you choose wire size in flux-core mode. Weird. What would happen if you set it for MAG mode and simply didn't use any gas?
@Howard Grant thanks man! Plug welding using stick can be tricky. You "should" remove your slag but if it doesnt have to hold water or it's not structural than I usually dont just to save time lol. As far as the machine on MAG...good question! I'm going to find out! Thanks man!
Yes sir rocker panel repair. Slip on kind. Hmmm 🤔 if I had a welder. Dad's Colorado, driver's side 08 model son's f150 both sides 02. Dad just got his truck his friend sold to him 800$. 4x4 5 cylinder regular cab. Needs little work. But he helped pops out. Worth 1500+ easy runs great. Well maintained mechanically not so much physically. Son's got from his girlfriends dad 4x4 regular cab. 5speed. Runs good needs body work. Got for grand over year ago.
Jesus Christ... What is the benefit of telling the welding machine what size material you are welding? That's just adding more variables into your settings..... The standard adjustments on a welding machine are quite simple..... Heat and wire speed (mig) ..... Or just heat/ amperage when stick welding.... I'm sure this is a fine machine.... But I don't think the extra imputs would help setting the machine up.... But I could be wrong....
@Thomas Love It's actually pretty slick. Selecting the wire size then selecting the material thickness (in synergic mode) will automatically set those parameters for you then you adjust up or down from there. If it wasn't useful I cant imagine that Fronius would incorporate synergic features it into their machines but they do.
@@BrandonLund yeah I guess if you weld different thicknesses all the time it could be convenient.... I really don't ever weld anything under 1/4“ ..... Maybe 1/8“ every now and then.... So some people would probably benefit a lot more than me ...

I use plug welding alot on Vehicles good Video Brandon @Brandon Lund
Right on brother!

Awesome tip on the pipe backer! Thanks for sharing man! @Bryant Fry

Glad to help! 👍 @Gabriel Szekeres
Thanks for the great video, Brandon! Definitely going to be practicing this, great skill to have.
Thanks man i appreciate it @Tubeagrutis

Great video! Also, love the throwback video to the bike repair, and sneaking the wife's fingernail polish! You crack me up!😆😆
Hahahaha thanks buddy i appreciate it!
Now that’s what I call some Top Tips! 👍👍
Thanks man!
You have been a great help! I appreciate your videos.
Good one! Thanks for sharing! Have a good weekend! 👍
Thanks, you too! @Rudy Rivera
Thanks for sharing Brandon, good information !! Stay safe and have a great Memorial Day Weekend. Fred.
Thanks Fred! Stay safe my friend!
Thank you Brandon
Thanks Ruben!

Great video Brandon. Was just doing that earlier today. Sitting down and now I feel like I am doing it all over again 🤣🤣
Nice one 👌🏻
Hahahaha but its always more fun being the guy watching someone else do all the work LOL take care my friend @Basil Keen
@@BrandonLund Love work. Could watch it all day 🤣🤣🤣
👍🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great instructions Brandon, definitely gonna hold on this knowledge for fab work. Greeting from Aruba.
Awesome! Thank you! Aruba....I'm jelous! @A.werleman90
Awesome video, thanks.
Thanks man I appreciate it!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Good video Brandon. I hate plug welding. Lol. Have a great weekend!
It's not my favorite either lol @ Earl Cavenaugh

Great point and we are actually tig welding an aluminum engine block coming up in an episode soon!
I made gate handles by plug welding 1/2 rebar to a 1 inch wide plate then plug welded a second plat that is 2 inches wide and this plate is attached to the fence with lag bolts. No unsightly welds.😁🛫
Thats an awesome example of plug welding Nice and CLEEEEEAN!

This may be a dumb question but, I'm not a welder im curious why the welds didn't stick to the copper bar and you said aluminum won't stick either??
I believe it's because they are dissimular metals.
Will brass work as a no stick backer if you don’t have aluminum or copper?
I havent tried brass but i believe it would @Mark Nelson. Another comenter mentioned flattening a piece of copper pipe
brass works as well
👍
your videos are great man!
Don't wannabe painting my wife's toes 😂
Hahahahaha Thanks man! 🤣🤣🤣
Forgot to put the Cards In the video Bro
@Antonio Claudio Michael thanks man hopefully they are now :)
@@BrandonLund no problem bro

I hear you there brother. Maine winters are brutal. This would be a great tool to have

Rock on!
Good video, but maybe wear safety glasses at 11:18 in case any kids are watching.
Thank you and good point 👍
