Hes a genius with his trade craft. I've always been comfortable with a pull technique but the few tips on the drag and the flatter tip angle. Also not being over the piece helped my welds so much. I dreaded welding after this video. I found enjoyment with it. Also ugly welds help with the dread. Nice, even and consistent welds add to the enjoyment. This video made a change in my welds that are night and day with the difference. I never would've thought a half hr video would be the transformation I badly needed. Other channels with different imstruction for proper techniques ate what's causing the lack of interest with welding. His style with his explanation. Places him far, far above his closest competitor. I'm 3g 6g stick certified. But never at all enjoyed what I was doing. I purchased a pro mig 180 and have had for 10 yrs with little to no use at all. After watching this. I'm out in the garage dragging welds. Doing it for hobby or entertainment. Was scared of weld not taking and failing later on. No longer do I feel that way. He provided the proper instruction for improved technique, that built and eventually gave me the confidence and assurance. Thank You So Much, and I Greatly appreciated you taking 30 mins. To change people's lives who include welding into it. WoW is all I can say....
Thank you!! Glad it helped you!
Thank you!
Thanks for having me🤘🤘
Love having you. You’re a great dude!
Best MIG welding video on TH-cam. Thank you so much!!! I have a shop full of welders including dual pulse MIG, and now I am almost a welder because of watching you. The fundamentals you presented are spot on. I had the same results as Travis; my welding improved within 20 minutes after watching this. Thanks again!
*BeadMaster Mike. This will get a million views. Love how he keeps it super simple and samurais the sacred cows of welding a la "settings label on the lid on my welder says ....". Would love to see a cut and dye on there, just for comparison.*
@@firemanqfdcs8735 thank you for the kind words 🤘
Learned more about Mig welding in one hour than any other video or my own table time. Eye opening.
Glad to hear it!
Travis, watching your discoloration from the coupon you're welding changed dramatically when Mike corrected you. I am left handed and owned my MIG in 84. I welded stick on the farm, I can't wait to "Listen" to the rhythm and laugh if you will, I found myself practicing those movements at the table! I am retired!
Love MIG Master Mike. What a humble dude. Thank you for shedding "Light" on this topic.
Great guy for sure! Thx for watching
I can't believe how nice and slow and steady you both weld. I almost always feel so rushed. I could watch you all weld all day
Wow, thank you!
Great video I was taught to pull not push 30 odd years ago, one thing I was also taught more so on thinner metal if you have a horizontal plate and a vertical sheet that is also the edge of the sheet rather than the than the bottom plate that you are welding in the middle of ( not a edge) I was told to focus the weld to the bottom to get the heat into the bottom plate & flick it out to the vertical as it’s harder to get the penetration in the lower plate without overheating the top vertical sheet. With that in mind he showed doing the Es & pursing at the top could it be pursued at the bottom or is that more for thinner metal. I am still learning I would love to sit down with a really good welder like him that talks real logical tips with experience to back it up.
Here trying to get to the point where I can see mistakes happening in the moment and not after the job is done. ❤ great job explaining things guys!
Thank you!
There's folks that are born with a master skill and then there's us that have to learn over time this guy is a sculpture maker with a welder this was awesome to watch.
Thank you!!
I watched a lot of mig welding videos. This is the best by far. Thanks to both of you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow. I’ve seen dozens of welding videos. This is spot on. Headed out to the shop to try these techniques. Thanks for all your videos.
Thank you
Mig Master Mike : a true Master !!! Thank you ! I wish I had 1/10 of your skill.
Thanks for watching!
I hope he starts a TH-cam channel his welding is top notch to say the least and hey Sylvesters was on point with just the little help imagine in a couple months what he could obtain!
Thank you!!
Since I build and manufacture 66-77 Bronco frames, I really appreciate the fantastic welders I have 👍
That’s awesome
Awe the teacher has become the student . . . . . good for you that's how we learn mike is a natural and great instructor
lol I learn every day we must continue to grow in every aspect and be better with every project
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS words to live by , my friend - I'm doing a 1967 Camaro Pro street and installing new quarters (aftermarket crap) and learning every day
@@pamdunn8454 good luck hope it goes well
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS maybe you can help with a question - 1967 Camaro roof rail "rain gutter" as it gets to the A pillar and goes along the vent window edge (theres a space between the two , i ordered a appx one inch long clip that covers the gap between the two " how does that install ? " , glue and squeeze - drill hole and plug weld ?
@@pamdunn8454 I’m not sure honestly I’d have to see it.
Thank you so much. You guys are awesome. Thanks for the lesson😊
Thank you! 😃
I wish I could weld 1/4 as good as both you guys. My mantra is "Make it stick and grind off the ugly" ! LOL! Tomorrow I'll be out in the shop to try these tips. THanks!
🤣🤣 thank you
Thanks, this was a very informative video, I learn something new every video you put out!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks again for taking the time to show us more. Really appreciate the time work you guys put in for us. I weld forward chasing the heat zone with backward C's , old stick practices. Practising this one in my head as im typing.
Our pleasure!
One of the best mig welding videos I have seen thanks for all the effort you guys have put into this one😎
Our pleasure!
I started with a metal thickness gauge and the settings under the hood for that size , i found a lincoln sp100 that a closing dealership body shop threw out cause the fan made funny noise , it had a cigerette celephane stuck in it 😂 , got me a 75 25 tank , .30 wire , its not a bad quarter panel replacer ..
Great, great video, will be watching a second time, so much info. Probably the best mig video I've seen. Thankyou.
Thank you!!
I like the HF tig gloves for most welding. If I get into "production" where things get hot I have thick gloves.
Most the time.. I don't have the convenience of clean metal or simple positions. And the need to just get it done. So choose a setting and go at it.
This never gets old thank u
Thank you!
Great video, guys. Lots of information to absorb. It is always easiest to learn when someone knows what they teach.
I know that may sound foolish, but if you've ever had someone try to teach you that doesn't know 100% what they are teaching, it really makes a difference.
Thank y'all so much for what you did and what you showed.
God bless and y'all stay safe out there.
Our pleasure! Thank hou
Great video! Thanks for the mig tips, very well detailed explanations 👍
Glad it was helpful!
this is gold!
Takes a lot to post your imperfections and learning. First video i have seen, great material. Subscribed!
Thank you!!
Oh boy.! Have I got some bad habits to lose....... Thanks guys, I learned a lot...
Our pleasure!
exactly! if you want to slow down and make your puddle stack, you can't use the auto settings (like Miller has) Those auto-sets are designed for a fast weld, you can't be working back into the puddle. Adjusting my hood so i can see made a huge difference for me. Help for uphill welds please - specifically how to spot when you're too hot/ cold.
Great!
Hay Travis , thanks again for another great well explained video , this is right on time for me thank you
Thanks for watching!!
I’ve been welding for almost 20 years and have always been told not to do any motion when mig welding because short circuit transfer already has poor penetration. The welds look nice but not something I would do when welding something I want holding anything on a car or truck.
I would like to see his welds cut and etched to see what the penetration is. Easy Off oven cleaner will etch the metal enough to look at the weld kernel. It looks like a lot of build up on the surface. Thr welds are beautiful. Excellent tutorial, thank you.
Thank you. Penetrated all the way through the back
Overhead welding you need to increase wire speed to push the puddle up so it doesn't fall down into the tip.
For anyone who wants to get better. Get a stick of 1½" or larger angle iron. Say, a foot or two long. Set it up so it's in the "V" position. Then spend hours running beads. 1st bead in the groove. Then a bead on either side, and so on and so forth. Run a bead the entire length, don't stop. Don't get caught up in having to weld pieces of metal together. Learn how to run consistent beads. Play with different torch patterns. Play with the heat and wire speed as you fill the valley up. Take notice to how it sounds and what the profile of your weld bead looks like. When you can fill up multiple sticks of angle iron with consistent beads. You can weld.
As a Freshman in H.S. I spent hours welding scrap metal together. Similar fashion as I describe above. Filling gaps, valleys, whatever. we'd weld scrap together until it was 6ft tall lol. Besides the normal shop class work, I did this over 4 years and by the time I attended WyoTech. Was already a really good welder. I just had to adapt to sheetmetal. Learn on thick stuff because then it's just a matter of turning the settings down. If you can't lay good welds on thick metal, you shouldn't be welding sheetmetal. It's going to be a frustrating time.
Awesome mig know how. Gonna try it. Thank you!!
Hope you enjoy
thanks for this. needed all the tips and advice.
You're so welcome!
Good post. Interesting conversation and a lot of good information.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
This was great content man!!!!!
Thank you
Superb video👍🏼
Thanks a lot
WD "It's got water in it".
Its a Water Dispersing agent, I can guarantee there isn't any water on WD40. If the base weld metal is shiny clean, welder and gas settings have been set up on a test plate there will be little or no spatter. The best way to establish welder the best settings is to do test plates. Too much gas is expensive, especially here in the UK where a large bottle of gas will set you back roughly £120 ($150) plus tax and not including bottle rental.
Another important consideration for getting the perfect weld is comfort. Do a "dry run" and effectivelydo the weld without pulling the trigger. This will show you if you are in the right position to complete the weld comfortably or if you run into a physically uncomfortable position and cannot maintain the right distance or technique.
I’m curious as to why you watched the video since you’re already a professional ? I constantly preach. There’s 1 million ways to do things do whatever works for you.
Great vid thanks 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
Guy is good
Thanks mikes the man!
Awsome info 👍
Glad you think so! Thank you
Another great video.
Thank you
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!
Great video I think I'm gonna have to contact Mike soon and see if I can set up one on one.
Please do! He’s an amazing teacher.
Mike!!! ⚡️🏆
🤘🏻🤘🏻
My helmet kept undimming when i was welding... Changed the battery and it didn't help... What seemed to work was when i smashed the helmet to pieces and went to the store and got a new one.. hope this helps
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 omg best comment ever!!
You want to protect hot metal using the inert gas for as long as you can reasonably do so. That is why you should point the torch at where you have been rather than where you are going. Well that’s what I’ve always thought after watching others weld. Nice to see the idea bear out.
I think the reason for the “e” is that you want to melt the metal in the region of the outer e shape but that creates a dimple in the centre of the bead so you drive through with the middle line of the e to fill that. 🤷
Those welds look awesome!
Thank you!
when replacing a quarter fender or a wheel well patch , is it necessary to round the corners or a rectangular 90 degree cornered panel good ? - I'm working on repairing just the wheel wells LF & RH on a 1967 Camaro 43 inch long appx 3-4 inch each side of well and 3-4 inches from the top of the quarter .... i already cut and screwed the passenger side (with 1" overlap) to the car "but no welding yet . . . . . thank you
Don't RUIN Your Body Panels with a CRAPPY Patch Panel!

We already made you a video all about it. 👍
I see you claiming that the weld penitrated all the way through in the comments. I'd really like to see a cuttaway of these welds to show us all the important part of the weld.
And for the record, I'm not criticized your work at all. It looks amazing. However you are using techniques that welders have been told not to do, especially with short circuit mig. I've seen many cutaways of all sorts of short circuit mig welds and didn't see much penitration on any of them. It's the nature of the weld process. The only time I've seen deap penitration was when in globular or spray transfer. You'll never get a stack of dimes look with either of those methods but the welds are really good.
So for the sake of education would you mind doing a cutaway so we can all see the effectiveness of your techniques? I'd appreciate it because I've seen this stack of dimes technique get hammered by a bunch of know it alls in other vidoes and in comments sections. Proof is in the cutaway.
Message me on instagram I’ll cut it for you. I’m not going to make a whole video just for that.
Spray will have way more penetration. Like I said in the video this isn’t structural code welding would I weld like this to hold a bridge up relying solely on one weld no I’d push and run the wire and heat wayyyyy higher.
Ithought the same thing. Is it penetrating into the root
Penetrated all the way through
Where is the sleeve he's wearing from please?
Just cheap $8 welding sleeves I think Tillman
@@mikediluccia88 Awesome, thanks for the reply.
try this crap on 1/8 " and get back to me . Its very hard for me to weld thin metal , thick metal the welder does it for you
Maybe you should listen to video with sound on lol we legit said it’s for 3/16 & 1/4” you wanna learn sheet metal do tig
If i wear out a precision tool because it's used as a scribe.. I buy another. I don't need the precision of a 200$ tool. The 30$ work good enough.
Agreed
I’m a professional welder .. just fyi that’s not proper welding. Trying to build up the fillet size to look pretty will lack root fusion and most likely be too cold. Ideal mig welding you should be looking to spray arc and more runs
Great video, thank you. I sure wish you would show each weld rather than just talk about it.
Showed most of them. Can’t please everybody
