Hey Brandon, Hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving day. I just ordered a couple of the YesWelder on your video to keep on our mobile welding rigs instead of of beating the heck out of our Lincoln multiprocess welders we keep on our trucks. Used your link, and got 20% off black friday discount, $352.00 each delivered. Thanks Brother!
Thanks man! Yah he is 3. We are lucky that my daughter lives about 3 miles from us so we get to see him pretty regularly. He keeps us young plus we sleep like a log once he goes home lol. I'm glad you liked the scammer call. I just had a viewer leave a comment berating me that I was disrespecting the caller for "trying to make a living" and I should start a new channel if that is how I am going to act. He said he was going to subscribe but decided against it. Needless to say I'm crushed 🤣🤣🤣 I think he was the guy that keeps calling me about my expired warranty...
After watching a few of your videos, I feel very much on the same page as you. I purchased the Yeswelder 200a migwelder, (Australian 240v version) due to wanting something I could easily through in the car for on site work. It was super cheap so my expectations were not high. First time I used it the supply earth wire to the mains melted due to a bad insulation at the wire feed causing it to earth through the bench and back to the power outlet instead of the earth clamp. The after sales service I got was unexpectedly great and they really look after their customers. I have since purchased one for one of my work places and my colleagues have purchased the same welder on my recommendation and been amazed at how good of a welder it is. It is my go to welder now for anything 6mm and smaller. I was advised to use the mag setting for the gas I use as it is supposed to be active, ( 2.75% Oxygen, 16% Carbon Dioxide in Argon). I used it on the Mig setting when I first got it and it seemed to work OK on that as well. I am using the .9mm and .8mm wires. I also have the evolution cold saw and absolutely love it but have have made the mistake of having something move in the vice which will cost you a saw tooth. Thanks for the great channel. Subscribed
Thats awesome man and I appreciate your sub very much! I like hanging on to my cash just like everyone else, so if I can help save my viewers a few bucks, I do. Every bit counts these days. Thanks again man for sharing and I appreciate your support! 🙏👊
Thanks Steven! That's what keeps this so interesting for me too. I mess around with cast iron a lot and pretty much every repair i make I learn something new. It's a great feeling :)
Thanks Rickey! It is super handy especially when you need to get heavy objects on top. If i were to build this from scratch i would probably do the whole top this way. I still might at some point
Great job, Brandon!!! Watched this last night on TV. Can't make comments when I do that. Your layout techniques are the best. I like the welder but that is in my distant future!!! Hope you Holiday was great.
LOL Treat yourself! hahaha. You know you are going to love it! I went without one for a loooong time then eventually pulled the trigger and since that day i'm so glad i did. It's just one of those things you dont realize how much you appreciate it until you actually have it. On a side note, my portable bandsaw stand I built is now one of those tools I used a lot but now i use i way more than I ever thought I would just because it's so convenient.
@@BrandonLund same here on the portable band saw table. I got the basic one from swag Off-road then built a stand for it👍 Use it the most of anything now. Cheers 🍺🍺
Yah I'm a huge fan of them. My old plasma cutter started acting up so thats pretty much how I got introduced after seeing good reviews. They make a great prduct for the money. I'm keeping my fingers crissed that they last. I haven't opened one up yet but I'm thinking I should in an upcoming video.
It looks like the ones on ebay are missing a lot of the front control functions. These are probably older models but still not a bad price if you dont want those functions.
I think you could but then it would be pulling it through the front rather than blowing it through the front. I'm probably just being overly critical because my Fronius fan harldy runs so it's got me spoiled lol
I agree the fans are annoying on the yes welders wish the fan would only kick on when the machine needed the fan agree needs a temp sensor @Brandon Lund
I havent installed it yet. We still have to TIG weld some tabs and install the plywood shelves in next weeks episode we will find out. Rarely if ever are corners tru 90 degress so it will end up being whatever the house is. Fingers crossed
Good one Brandon. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving 👌🏻👌🏻 Those welders with the fan on continuously are annoying. Didn't realise until I used a machine with a thermal cut-off on it. Would be a cheap add on by YES and make the machine even more appealing. Great little project. 👍🏻👍🏻 😂😂Looks like you need to build another cart. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Basil I hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving also! I totally agree, the cost would be minimal but it's really nice not hearing the fan. I'm probably spoiled because it was never really an issue until I got my Fronius because all my other machines work this way too but the Fronius just sits there quietly even when I'm welding and occasionally the fan will turn on for a few seconds then turn off again.
Thanks man! The 1st weld I went vertical up but from that point forward I think I went vertical down for a lot of it. For decorative non structural welds I do a lot of vertical down because it's a bit faster and generally yields a better looking weld because your not fighting gravity like vertical up.
Can mid 90’s suspension parts be fixed or welded? Example control arms, spindles? Are they cast steel or cast iron? Can anyone share some information. Thanks
Are you purchasing these welders with your money Brandon? I just like to know the level of credibility on equipment reviews and recommendations! Thanks for posting and take care!
No not everything is purchased with my own money. Some products are given to me for free (such as the Harbor Frieight welder that was donated by a channel fan). However, 99% of the things you see me using on the channel come directly from viewer requests purchased through revenue generated by the channel. On the rare occasions I receive something for free, I let the viewers know and it doesnt change my opinion. You mentioned level of credibility....this manufacture wished they never contacted me th-cam.com/video/aCpMaeuzqHs/w-d-xo.html 😎
Morning Brandon, 👍 great setup video. As I previously mentioned, just purchased the same unit also. I messaged Yeswelder concerning shielding gas related to the Tig and Solid wire Mig. They said I should use 75Argon/25co2 % blend for the wire and 99.9% Argon for Tig specifically. My budget won't allow two different gas purchases. I'd like to use one gas for both functions eventually. What is your take/ opinion on this? Thanks for your reply and wisdom. Cheers 🍻, G.
Unfortunately one gas won't work for both. The short answer of why you can't use C-25 gas with TIG but you can with MIG is that C-25 gas will oxidize your tungsten and make a nasty weld. You want pure argon for TIG. A work around could be get a tank of Argon for TIG then run flux core for your mig. If your in the United States, check with Matheson gas. They might surprise you how much it costs to get setup with both gasses. That's who I use.
@@BrandonLund ,, Thanks for your reply sir. I'll definitely keep your recommendations in mind. I'm a Nevada resident 😎👍. Keep up the good work. Cheers 🍻, G.
Interesting video Brandon and the scam caller too! When I get scam callers it would not be wise to be within earshot or video what I say to them! Best regards, Jon.
Thanks Jon! I probably get 15 scam calls a day. Probably my own fault for picking up the phone and engaging but i'm a kid a heart and these scammers easily entertain me. I've said some pretty crude things to them. My wife gets upset when I go off on a profanity laced rant with them so I try to do it when shes not around lol.
Well young Brandon you keep your cool whilst I loose it after a minute and go off on one. Trouble is, a guy called me up and I accused him of being a crimnal scammer followed by a lot of expletives and said if you are from my bank then write to me. so they did! He was genuine, but hey, nothing personal just business. Anyway, I wish you well and look forward to more of your videos in due coure. Best regards, Jon.
Which both are classified as GMAW lol clear as mud. I think the bigger issue is everyone calls wire feed welding MIG regardless if it's self shielded or not. I should probably do an episode clarifying this 😁
Watching you muck around calculating the material thickness I just had at laugh at how the U.S. still use the imperial measuring system 🤦 just use metric like the rest of the world 😂
LOL I do agree that the metric system is pretty easy to navigate. I have a serious question though because I find myself converting imperial to metric and I really dont know the answer because it always ends up being a fraction. So if a conversion comes out to 10.66mm do you call it? Should I round up to 11mm? Also, at what point do I stop refering to mm and go to cm? 1000mm = 10-0cm It probably sounds silly me asking this but im genuinely curious. Thanks @Dave Marriott
@@BrandonLund I guess it depends on how accurate you want to be, rounding down by 0.66 or up by 0.34mm. Obviously for the rest of us this isn't a problem because we work in metric units from the start, so no need to convert and then deal with decimals. We would just use whole number mm from the start. For upscaling, generally trades with stick with mm unless it's many metres. We don't use cm, only some people who generally aren't trade related.
@@Sparky_D Thanks man I appreciate it! You cleared a lot up for me. I'm curious why we don't use the metric system. Maybe someday. I work on bikes a lot on the side and they are all metric. I like the simplicity of it all and because it's all in 10's so it's pretty easy to do the math. subtracting 3/16 from 19/64ths not so much lol This would be the "mucking around" you refered to 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks again buddy I appricate your support and the quick reply 👍👍

I have been pretty impressed with the Yes Welders For the power to price ratio and they work very well @Brandon Lund
Yah I'm a huge fan of them. My old plasma cutter started acting up so thats pretty much how I got introduced after seeing good reviews. They make a great prduct for the money. I'm keeping my fingers crissed that they last. I haven't opened one up yet but I'm thinking I should in an upcoming video.
@@BrandonLund that would be a interesting video if you make it bro
I probably will Antonio just because I'm curious what it looks like inside
@@BrandonLund sounds like you got a plan
Nice build man, hope the corner that thing is going into is square 👍
Thanks Guy! I hope so too but doubtful. It's an older house but ill make it happen lol.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family 🦃
Thanks Max and same to you and your family!
Nice welding parameter Chart @Brandon Lund
I was actually surprised how well thought out it was.
@@BrandonLund yeah they are very well thought out for Low priced machines
Εισαι ο καλυτερος.Μπραβο.
Thank you! ♥
Brandon, for those that might be interested in buying one of these, eBay has this welder from $299 and up.
It looks like the ones on ebay are missing a lot of the front control functions. These are probably older models but still not a bad price if you dont want those functions.
I wonder if you can reverse wire that fan to blow air the other direction
I think you could but then it would be pulling it through the front rather than blowing it through the front. I'm probably just being overly critical because my Fronius fan harldy runs so it's got me spoiled lol
I agree the fans are annoying on the yes welders wish the fan would only kick on when the machine needed the fan agree needs a temp sensor @Brandon Lund
I wouldn't think it would take much either and probably wouldn't be all that expensive.
@@BrandonLund no it wouldn't a few cents or so
How did it fit after you installed the shelving unit? Was the corner a true 45?
I havent installed it yet. We still have to TIG weld some tabs and install the plywood shelves in next weeks episode we will find out. Rarely if ever are corners tru 90 degress so it will end up being whatever the house is. Fingers crossed
Hi have you got a link for the saw that you use please i cannot find it great show thank you
Yes sir @phat soul radio EVOLUTION TOOLS - Use Coupon BLUND5 at checkout

Tune in next week for that answer. As I said in the video we still have tabs to tig weld and wood to install.
Good one Brandon. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving 👌🏻👌🏻

Awesome video! When you are doing vertical welds, I think you went top to bottom...is that correct?

For decorative non structural welds I do a lot of vertical down because it's a bit faster and generally yields a better looking weld because your not fighting gravity like vertical up.
@@BrandonLund awesome, thanks for explaining! I have learned so much from you over the last couple of years!!!!!😁👍🏻⚒
Can mid 90’s suspension parts be fixed or welded? Example control arms, spindles? Are they cast steel or cast iron? Can anyone share some information. Thanks
Not a good idea to weld them. They could be either metal. The knuckles are generally cast iron however
