As a "girly girl" who's about to go to welding school, it's really encouraging to see a woman welder doing videos like this. Representation really matters. Thank you!
Where did people get the idea that women don't weld? Who do you think welded all our airplanes and ships when the men were off fighting Japanese and Germans in WW2? Your great-grandmothers were welding with torches back before that was cool.
@@WmSrite-pi8ck Yes they were! Which is VERY cool! However, from the research I've done so far, women only make up a very small percentage of the welding work force. I'm sure this will change moving forward, but it's definitely intimidating to go into a male-dominated field.
How cool! Enjoy school! Soak up ever bit! Follow my weld channel as well. Eventually I’d like to interview some welder girls to try and inspire others. Take care Julia
I'm learning plenty with the previous teachers but this teacher s video s a breathe of fresh air for its clarity. (And I'm a lot more comfortable with the british accent!)
A comment section where aluminium fits in! Nice aluminium welding! A technique I've seen and used on box corners to minimize distortion is to start with the outside corners, then the sides, then the inside corners. Clamping when able and cooling between welds is also always good. Sometimes the big mallet comes out in the end though that may not be good for aluminium.
Brass/silicon bronze faced hammer work good too. If u don't have a deadblow mallet. Also I use aloy of chill blocks, chunks of both aluminum or copper, whatever u got helps when clamped right next to your weld seam. They also help trap argon around weld seam little longer. Take care!
Nice video! I started watching it last night, but fell asleep halfway through. No aspersions on you, though. It was the 12 hour day fabricating support arms for awnings on a shipping container being converted to a cantina that caused my loss of consciousness... Anyway, I noticed you mentioned the challenges of measuring inside corners for square with a weld present. I use a machinist square. You can slide the ruler in past the edge of the frame to create a gap, leaving space for the weld. I also have a framing square that I cut a little of the corner off of. That works the same way. Lacking such gadgets, you can lay in a piece of flat stock to shim up over the weld. Just make sure the flat stock is true. Have a great day!
Excellent information! I have been curious about how other welders keep parts aligned properly (my methods are based on luck). I have two engineer's squares, but have never used them when welding (yet). I think Mikala was informative and entertaining to watch. Hopefully we'll see her here more often.
I worked for a Truck Trailer manufacturer. The design engineers had tolerances we had to work inside of. In other words no welded object is ever exactly on the mark.
Very helpful tips and presented well. I like the way you finish the outside edge end. I'm still working on not burning it down. Thanks, buddy. Keep up the good work.
Mikala, what a refreshing change to see an English welder showing how it's done, and what a change to see a young woman showing her skill without resorting to a tight vest to get views. You will be an inspiration to every young person who wants to weld. Top draw, more power to your elbow.
Drawback of clamping is that you are ending up with more tension. Not a problem for most work but for some aplications it may. Pre setting for me only is worth the trouble when making a lot of the same. Which i rarely do. Also the order and direction in relation to the other welds on your piece can do a lot. That can get complicatied but in general weld oppositie weld and when you can oppositie direction as much as possible. Experience over time will teach you hoe a givven product wil behave
Nice and plain. It's not what we start out with...it's what we end up with that counts. Restrictive welding (clamps, angle iron, fab tables all do this). All the best to you fine ma'am.
Nice to see the Miller Dynasty and Weldmet getting noticed along with the Miller/Weldcraft 2% Lanthium tungsten! You don't have to have a gap, aluminium doesn't need one and will actually prefer to be closed. You can just push the penetration through.
Don't know what the female term is for diamond geezer, but that was an excellent vid on how to deal with distortion. Also appreciate the more relatable metric units.
I use a Lincoln ADF in a Fibermetal Tiger hood with a Miller Bobcat running an ESAB Rogue and using Hobart Rod.......I am one mixed up Weldor......With a Tweco Tong Stinger to boot
Anyone else noticed the 'arching' of the ground on the welded parts? (Around 2:40 - 3:06) Looks like an Ant Rave goin on there with disco lights! Good video!!👍
More of this!! Not to knock on the old chaps, but too much knowledge might be a bad thing in teaching a beginner or intermediate welder. She is more direct with good information. When you know too much there's more variations and tweeking from their own experiences. Most of which, some of use won't even understand
When I mig weld 1/2in aluminum vacuum plenums there’s 2in on each side that the base plate hangs over. I have to use a 1/8 plate under it and clamp the edges down over extending them. I preheat it in a oven at 275F. After I weld it and let it cool down and the base plate is flat within .003 thousands on a surface plate.
Nice job 👍 the squares are also called machinists squares and while very accurate good brands like starrett Brown and Sharpe etc can get real expensive real fast you can get a 4 piece import 2-7 inch set for under 50 bucks and you can also buy singles in many larger sizes they're awesome and very accurate but I still only use my imports for welding fab work cause I would freak if my machine work squares got dropped or got spatter on them 😂😂😂
Wow its so nice to see you again Love 💘 the video 📹 as im fabing as I view, we need to see more of your perfectly explained process, not like the rest which go left and right. Keep updating your great work 👍 👏 👌 💪 🙌 😀
I notice more movement when I'm doing the fillet. I usually open up the 90 and brace it before welding fillet and it always comes back. The trick is-how much to open and to be ready with a sluggo for the fine tune.
Can you guys do a video on the basics of welding pipe with both wire fed process. I’ve seen a couple videos, but nothing to informative for beginners. Mostly just weld test.
Loved the video! My problem is when I go to flip and reclamp the profile of the weld causes a crown so I cant get my pieces to sit level, if I try and clamp it makes the gap bigger... any suggestions??
Do you suggest grinding the weld flat before flipping it over to the other side while clamping? I'm thinking of keeping the second side flush so the clamps don't use the weld bead as a fulcrum and pull the pieces out of square the other way. Maybe I'm over thinking this.
@@carpediemarts705 Thank you ... Somebody bought a tig masjine on an auction and we are struggling to get a proper aluminium weld. As soon as I can get to the machine I will send specs and name of machine.
@@pauldebruyn4389 aluminum can be the toughest to learn. Buy a brand new stainless steel wire brush and write ALUMINUM ONLY on the side. Scrub 1/2 inch along the intended weld line down to gleaming metal. Or sandpaper or brand new stainless wire brush on a grinder. That oxide layer will make things tough. Once steel is ready to melt, it glows. Extra hot it turns yellow. Aluminum needs just enough heat to get shiny and then lighten up on the pedal and MOVE when it gets wet.
Where do you want the heat to go, into the tungsten? No. Electrode negative. My machine us both stick and tig. Stick welding is often electrode positive. I have to check that my tig handle is plugged into the right hole every time as my buddy switches them to stick weld.
@@carpediemarts705 I do no tig runs electrode negative. My confusion comes on the power supply. Must my electrode cable be connected directly to the minus side and the earth/ground to the plus side on powersupply. As the machine is AC and switching anode and cathode.
I wish they made small tools (like squares) easier to grab with bulky gloves. Seems like a missed product opportunity to make squares that have protrusions or handles on the side so they're easier to manipulate with heavy welding gloves.
"Basic fabrication techniques" but nothing about saving money by not burning up your 127th wooden workbench in a garage? Disappointed... Ha-ha aside, you make that look so easy! Am jealous. ;.)
ALUMINUM and Magnesium are non reactive metals, so no purge is needed, you do not even need a post flow on weld like you do with stainless, titanium, copper, or carbon steel
@@mikehindley3Good comment, but I only said no post flow on weld, not no post flow on tungsten...1 sec. per 10 amps is a recommended time by many manufacturers. Of course, if tungsten is dark, give more post flow.....cheers, Paul
the proper pronunciation as to the way it is spelled.....it is a British thing...and since they invented the English language, they get the right to say it how they feel.....now go and check under the bonnet and make sure the oil is topped off......and don't forget the boot for your Wellies, it is going to rain.....
@@ypaulbrown Sure, they can say it how ever they want, but there's only one way to say it and not sound like a limp fruit, and it's not way they say it. Interesting enough, "aluminum" was the way the guy who discovered it called it, meaning that pronunciation predates "aluminium", but the Brits changed it for not sounding Latin enough 🙄
@@Dulceria-La-Princesita The names aluminium and aluminum are derived from the word alumine, an obsolete term for alumina,[i] a naturally occurring oxide of aluminium. Alumine was borrowed from French, which in turn derived it from alumen, the classical Latin name for alum, the mineral from which it was collected.The Latin word alumen stems from the Proto-Indo-European root *alu- meaning "bitter" or "beer". In 1812, British scientist Thomas Young wrote an anonymous review of Davy's book, in which he proposed the name aluminium instead of aluminum, which he felt had a "less classical sound".This name did catch on: while the -um spelling was occasionally used in Britain, the American scientific language used -ium from the start. Most scientists used -ium throughout the world in the 19th century,and it was entrenched in many other European languages, such as French, German, or Dutch.In 1828, American lexicographer Noah Webster used exclusively the aluminum spelling in his American Dictionary of the English Language. In the 1830s, the -um spelling started to gain usage in the United States; by the 1860s, it had become the more common spelling there outside science.In 1892, Hall used the -um spelling in his advertising handbill for his new electrolytic method of producing the metal, despite his constant use of the -ium spelling in all the patents he filed between 1886 and 1903. It remains unknown whether this spelling was introduced by mistake or intentionally; however, Hall preferred aluminum since its introduction because it resembled platinum, the name of a prestigious metal.By 1890, both spellings had been common in the U.S. overall, the -ium spelling being slightly more common; by 1895, the situation had reversed; by 1900, aluminum had become twice as common as aluminium; during the following decade, the -um spelling dominated American usage. In 1925, the American Chemical Society adopted this spelling. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) adopted aluminium as the standard international name for the element in 1990. In 1993, they recognized aluminum as an acceptable variant; the most recent 2005 edition of the IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry acknowledges this spelling as well.IUPAC official publications use the -ium spelling as primary but list both where appropriate.
Might I ask why you're not welding the inside and outside corners first, or wrapping your corners with tacks to hold your angle in? Where's your joint prep? Why no material cleaning before weld? Why weld over the tacks instead of feathering them? Why again clamp down on a weld, forcing the ends of the material down to the table? You're only introducing distortion in another plane of which you're not measuring?
I think she does it the way she does because it works for her. If you noticed the etch line on the weld was very ample to clean any oxides off the material. As far as feathering the tacks, it seemed to all melt into here cover pass, feathering a tack with an abrasive wheel only adds aluminum oxide residue to the puddle [the same thing you are trying to remove from material surface and is next to diamond in hardness] it is also dangerous as the wheel clogs up and becomes unstable and will possibly explode. Using a die grinder is the way to remove, but she was not making humongous tacks that would need that.....in the end, it was square, so it must work for her....
Nice video, but i am not happy to se the clamping of the squaretubes, when they are turned around liing on the welding spots. You should drag it out over the tablet edge and clamp it
Let the Girls do all the welding. Girls are better suited for it I think. My ticket says Welder, but I avoid it like the plague. I work in the preparation department, hydrostatic testing, help QC with weld mapping, bolt up, ect. They make me run the Submerged Arc now and again. I don't even know where my welding shield is and I prefer it that way. Edit: The girl's still put on cosmetics for some reason. Must be a habitual thing.
Never wear jewelry when welding , and her nails how could she work with nails like that . Someone tell her its not a fashion video . There was some great tips by her but needs to be a professional not a model .
Mcnabb are you gay or anti women in the trades or something? She's being a pleasure as well as being informative and she can't help that . Just as, say for example Bob Moffet can't help passing on decades of experience and humour, she can't help having us totally in her power .
Darcy, uh, she is wearing gloves, or did you miss that......if she can weld with long nails, all the power to her......Mikala deserves the right to be as Feminine as she wants......being a Weldor does not mean wearing a flannel shirt and comfortable shoes as Robin Williams once said.....
Nicely done and valuable information 👌💙👊

Ever seen female cursive? I think it answers your question
Are you welding with a AC power supply. If yes is the electrode holder connected to plus or minus side on the power supply.
For DC welding, the tungsten is electrode negative.
If you have your AC cleaning set to 30%, you would want the same.

Let the Girls do all the welding. Girls are better suited for it I think. My ticket says Welder, but I avoid it like the plague.
I work in the preparation department, hydrostatic testing, help QC with weld mapping, bolt up, ect. They make me run the Submerged Arc now and again. I don't even know where my welding shield is and I prefer it that way. Edit: The girl's still put on
cosmetics for some reason. Must be a habitual thing.
Better keep a hand in welding or you will loose a bit of touch and become rusty
Can u weld my heart to yours?
Nice try. Lol.
Never wear jewelry when welding , and her nails how could she work with nails like that . Someone tell her its not a fashion video . There was some great tips by her but needs to be a professional not a model .
Mcnabb are you gay or anti women in the trades or something? She's being a pleasure as well as being informative and she can't help that . Just as, say for example Bob Moffet can't help passing on decades of experience and humour, she can't help having us totally in her power .
@@patappleton6285 I agree.....well said
Darcy, uh, she is wearing gloves, or did you miss that......if she can weld with long nails, all the power to her......Mikala deserves the right to be as Feminine as she wants......being a Weldor does not mean wearing a flannel shirt and comfortable shoes as Robin Williams once said.....
