    Your tips have helped me improve my welding. I just ordered two copies of the Metals book on your recommendation. I was amused to find used copies on Amazon for as much as $40. Thanks a lot.

    I wondered if you knew anything good or bad about the TIG Pulse Arc Welders made by Sunstone Engineering?
    I would like to butt weld very thin (.012 - .020) sheet aluminum, stainless and titanium for something I would like to mass produce which would be exposed to heat .
    This Pulse Arc Welder will do the job with no filler metal. After watching your video on TIG welding aluminum and how but joints exposed to heat will crack when no filler metal is used now has me wondering?

    I have been welding for a few years but am just starting to weld aluminum. I have a nice Thermal Arc Acr Master Pro and have some good luck with it so far but not 100% sure of setting the pulse yet. My nephew just got out of A trade school were he took welding and he really can't weld but I bet if his teachers were more like you he would have a job welding and no flipping burgers. Thanks again.

    The PowerTIG 185 looked really good in Jody's videos. It's also got a simpler setup and last time I looked it was going for a great price. I might pick one up this summer. It does have HF and you can get one with a pedal too. Hope this helps you!

    Another good video! You ever hear of LESOTA LT-2000 stick rod? I got some and have no idea what it is. It's got a red colored flux coating. I'd like to know so I can use it .

  • @GoMiGman

    Excellent video. For a woodworking guy who really has no clue about any welding whatsoever but needs to learn about welding aluminum so I can add a 1/2 inch extension to the skeg on my boat's Volvo outdrive so this helped me a lot! First I need to find out what type (number) aluminum the outdrive is made of! then get the rod the extension piece of metal of the same type and the appropriate rod. I might just do it with a blow torch for now, though, since I don't have an welding machine like that and a catalane torch produces pretty good heat. Plus I don't need perfect beads like that since I have to grind it smooth in the end for paint. So anyone with advice for me please do chime in! Thx.

    There is talk of 2024 and 7075 welding processes now nine years after this was published. I think I saw Jody review that process briefly in one of the fab techs he attended 2019?

  • @deonnieuwoudt
    @deonnieuwoudt 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mate, thanks for your great videos. You should start a Facebook group so I can promote you.
    I am about to start welding together a 5052 Alu hull.
    The tip for putting the pulse on 1 second intervals has helped me a lot.
    Thanks again!

    Id like to get the book but the price in NZ is US$120 to $140! Even direct from Lincoln it is US$80. $68 postage for a single book!!! Non profit? Love your videos! You have turned me into a gifted amateur!! Are you on Patreon? If not you should be!
    I have a few dollars every month spare!!

    It's called the "Editorial We", and it's a valid use.

  • @ImRarelySerious
    @ImRarelySerious 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I see a lot of your videos where you're using an everlast 140st or 160sth.. do they have a " next step" that welds AC as well as DC? with all the perks like HF, pedal, size, ease of set up and cost?

    Hey Jody do you think it is better to do a vertical or a down or is it a preference. I mean will the bead be as strong either way or will the penetration be more shallow in one application than the other

    Keep on using we. it's a good habit for class, and even better in a business arena. in the past I worked for boneheads that had nothing more than a clue of what I might be doing, and yet have the nerve to speak to the customer in terms of "I did this for you or I took care of that for you" We is proper.
