I had another episode lined up and ready to go for yesterday, but a viewer hit me up with a really important question: "How do I Make Money Welding At Home???" Because of what is going on with people losing their jobs, I felt like I needed to help in any way I could. Even if it was completely spitballing ideas on something I'm BARELY qualified to speak on- I really just wanted to help.
*I am NOT a business or tax specialist- please take this video as encouragement or motivation, not business advive.*
Starting a Welding Business IS possible, and as welders, we tend to have options in a skill that is always needed, it seems to be a matter of getting ideas and structuring it in a way that we can Make Money Welding, and in today's current state, it would be pretty awesome to Make Money Welding At Home! So give this episode a casual listen, I really just wanted to encourage and help someone who hit me up with a good question.

It’s funny how regional this is, where I live every other person is a welder. Also be careful what services you offer, building things such as ramps or lifting devices could potentially open yourself up to liability claims, unless you have liability insurance to protect yourself you could lose everything in one lawsuit.
Wise advice Don. Like I said I don’t speak to business laws or tax stuff. Just drumming up some ideas for some people who were curious for ideas:) Good to look at business laws and liability stuff specific to where you live. Our provinces vary so much from one to another, amazing to see how much rules change 😂I appreciate you reaching out! Cheers my friend 🍻
I’ve been welding only for about 6 months using an everlast 185. Only the TIG...but I’ve found that it reallly helped me learn mig as well...puddle control. This is a really fun video...best advice for me was to just introduce ourselves to people. Be social...just walk in and ask for some drops and tell them what you’re really interested in. I don’t get work that pays me...but advice from pros that really helps me move along. As a computer game nerd...the social thing is deff out of my comfort zone...but...can’t get drops unless I go talk to people haha! So the social aspect happens and I’m sure it’ll pay off one day.
Dude yes! Puddle control is something that needs a keen eye and feel. Great you learning both! Tig helps a lot IMO. If it makes you feel any better I’m a PlayStation game nerd haha. But always great to chop it up with someone over a trade you both love. You’ve already got a common language with a total stranger 🍻
Absolutely love the art and the advice boss.!! Been welding for about 6 years and ive never considered artwork untill i saw your’e masterpieces.!!!keep em up as well as the amazing vids.!!
Derek thank you man🙏 I really appreciate the kind words 🍻
Thanks for the video man! Always appreciate the positive outlook and helpful insight, priceless! You’re killin it with the weld art too. Keep it coming!
Dan thank you so much 🙏 That really means a lot to me. I appreciate the kind words. It’s hard to hear how some people are struggling in these times, just wanna chip in to help in any way I can. Even though this may be all just rambling haha.
Cheers my friend
Right on. Very timely. With the right knowledge and skill set, virtually anyone can succeed with the right motivation. And now is better time than any!
That’s it! Go get a welder and get it going!
You are an inspiration brother and great work! I’m about to start up a small operation in my garage for tig art and repairs like yourself, this video really helped! I’m a certified tig welder full time for my day job but want to get into the art stuff and have a few clients already so again this video was great to watch, keep up the great work!!!
Thank you for all of the information. I’m just learning how to weld and all of the information that you give has been a great help. I plan on taking your course sometime in the near future. Structured learning definitely helps.
I love your art. You are an inspiration. Thank you.
This such a great video! Thanks!
Hey!!! Thanks man great staff. I'm a boilermaker/welder myself so what you did to me became an eye opener. I'm definitely going to pursued that during this hard time.
Thanks for checking the video out! Hope all is well with you!✌️
Dusty! Youve taught me SO much from a handful of your videos. You explain things in a way that totally resonates with how im able to learn. Really appreciate you man. You are the shit.
Much love from Oakland CA. Let me know if your ever out here.
Great information. Very encouraging.
Good advice ! Respect the hustle!
Hey buddy thank you for your time and for the good information I am new going to school for welding I look forward to doing all this cool fun stuff I always been a handyman going on to wilding I will keep following
Love your content, keep it up 👍
Very encouraging talk. Thanks. Just what I needed at the moment.
Awesome! A bit of a spitballing episode just trying to throw some ideas out there, happy to help in any way 🙏
You can do anything. Just keep swimming.
14months later this is still solid advice. I just got paid on a trailer repair. Respect to the side hustle.
like your channel! have watched a few episodes and have subscribed. Keep up the good work brother!
Tim thank you man! I really appreciate that! And happy you enjoy!
You do an awesome job, thank you for sharing
I just found your channel. Very informative. Thank you for the ideas.
Great video, gave me some ideas to start looking into! Looking forward to more content
Great! Thanks for reaching out! More stuff to come!
You the man!
This was such a good episode brother, lotta inspiring ideas in this one! :) I got 3 decent jobs to do, 1 big industrial mower repair, and 2 big artpieces/sculptures that will prolly wind up being and extra 6 or $700, all 3 DO NOT have blueprints and I have no idea how im going to tackle them yet, but I know I will lol that's what I love about welding/Fabricating my man.
AWESOME dude. Good for you man. I’m stoked you’re hustling after it. Good on you brother.
A good one to get into if you dont mind re work, is fixing semi truck fuel tanks! guys always have leaky tanks and you can band them for them at a 100$ bucks a strap two straps average per tank is good money for 2-3 hours of work, Advertise for repairs people always break stuff and local companies charge big $$ for it because no one wants to do it, if you can undercut abit and get your foot in the door the work will come by itself, im slowly getting there 👍
Thanks mang! good info, and really helped me with ideas.👍😎💪
Amazing! Glad to hear Toby!
Hi Dusty!!!
plenty of good tips and advice in this video, and the possibilities are endless...
I thinking about to do repairs part time after work.
Just how you said we have to advertise ourselves.
No one will knock in our door, if they don't know what we can do....
😊🤘
Absolutely my friend. Soon you’ll be welding up a storm and everyone will want to hit you up! Cheers my man🍻
Great info thx
Great stuff as ya do! 👍👍
Lake Havasu 🌞 Az
Thanks for posting video.
🙏Thanks for watching 🙏
Loving the new channel. I'm very new into welding and look forward into seeing all your new videos man.
Matthew THANK YOU!🙏 thats super nice of you to say man, I appreciate that a lot. What kind of welding you do? Cheers 🍻
@@PacificArcTigWelding Thanks for asking. I'm I've taken up tig welding. Starting out with aluminum.
Awesome! That’s a skill that’s definitely in high demand. A good one to master!
@@PacificArcTigWelding yes that's what I've been told. And a craft I'm willing to put alot of energy into learning. Send all those aluminum videos my way. I'll deff add alotbof qs. If u have an email I have a few tbh. Or anyother method of contact for asking qs.
Pacificarcfinearts@gmail.com✌️
"Dry arcs" ... I know exactly what you're talking about! I developed this technique for myself years ago, because I was too lazy to fire up the o.a. torch. 😁
Thank you!
I support Canadian channels! I just got my el cheapo Tig welder and I'm ready to start burning. Looking forward to watching more content.
Ha nice! I appreciate that🍻 You a beginner? What kind of machine did you get? It’ll be a ton of fun! Cheers!
@@PacificArcTigWelding anytime, I'm on mainland 🍻 I've only really MIG'd this will be my first go at it. I bought the second cheapest DC Tig on Amazon. It had good reviews and some TH-cam reviews looked really good so I went for it. I just recieved everything I need just yesterday.
Naaaice! Let me know how it goes and hit me up with any questions 🍻 Ps I’m dropping a full beginners lesson on Dc welding on Wednesday...
I learned you can repair boat props. I'm thinking of doing table and chairs as well tables desk ect. Also logging companies sometimes need a welder to drop in. Or trash bin repairs for recycling companies could be a option.
Absolutely awesome ideas.l!🙏💪
@@PacificArcTigWelding a little side note about props they get lightly soft and manageable at 390 to 400 degrees f.
Gotcha. Good to know thank you!🙏
Great video 👍
Joe thank you brother🍻
Another top video dusty very interesting 👌, I find business cards flyers and word of mouth best for my work 😁👍
That hustler mentality! Great advice Darrell! Cheers my man🍻
But that advice is for when we are not in lock down 😁, I've been pushing my pieces on Facebook and Instagram and website, try and post regular and get creative with the hash tag's, it definitely casts your net wider 😉👍
I’ll be hitting you up for advice when all this is done then! I’m just starting to sell actual pieces, I’m excited to learn!
Any time you have any questions definitely hit me up, from being a full time welder for 25yrs, then turning to full-time metal artist I've had to learn a few tricks 😅👍
Ive been asked to TIG mailbox and house numbers on aluminum plates.
That artwork looks amazing. I have never welded, but i really want to learn, i imagine it could be very satisfying, as well as very lucrative. There are so many different welding machines out there now, i find it a bit confusing, is there a machine that is universal, and able to cover all or most situations?
My dad, brother and i did this starting in 2010 working out of a one stall garage i couldnt really fit my jetta in. I ventured off and got a full-time was a superviser at 23, while dad just quit his job and my brother is in college. We now have 26 Employees and do work for the government, New York fire department things that get shipped overseas. I still take care of the community and doing repairs and custom builds. But knowing where we came from and seeing the contracts we have now it just feels amazing. A dad skips is rent payment to buy a welder and here we are today. "T&A Welding & Custom Fab" if your thinking about doing it do it. BUT know your shit and you need friends. Ill say that again you need friends. We still cant get anything from the bank 😡. But its ok its been a real grind. You gotta be all in. My new buliding cost 500k. Stay humble stay motivated. And stay open to new ideas.
Thank you so much for your videos. You and justin have given me a bunch of tips and pointers that have helped me out learning to tig. Again thanks letting me see the art through your eyes keep doing what your doing what your doing. Idk how to tag people lol.
The key to creating something to sell is that everything that has been thought of is being done by some to many. The key to finding your niche is LOVE what you do so its no longer WORK. So if you think competition will stop you cold. It will. If you believe you can do something better, different, faster, funner, and more often...you can! Branding, Marketing, Advertising. Are the 3 keys to a successful business. Online marketing is a huge learning curve to be able to do yourself. Trust me. It is much faster to hire someone to do the marketing while you do the ART. If you are doing it all you are not running a business successfully. Your business is running you. :)
thx enjoyed
Stay safe Dusty. Canadian living in South Carolina right on the water.
So opposite coast. Ha. Just started watching your videos, great stuff.
I moved here and started a welding business because I can see was needed. I’m mobile and have a small shop. Been doing well almost to busy at times. It’s just me and sometimes have a friend/ helper.
Prestige Welding is my tag on Instagram if your interested.
Anyways. I’m going to stay dialed in to your channel.
Peace ✌️
Eric! Dude much respect for starting your own hustle. Amazing my brother! Thanks so much for hitting me up too, I really like hearing from people out there. Stay in touch my friend 🍻
How did you get the color in the art work?
This is exactly my mentality! I quit my job at AutoZone right after I was hired as a welder/fabricator for an agriculture farm shop. It was the best decision I've made in my life so far! At 19, I've finally landed my dream job. Unfortunately, my college went remote. I'm glad I took as much business and welding classes as I could during my first year. Now I'm making $14.50 vs $13 (minimum) at AZ. I would take the 50 hours a week vs the 25 that I used to get. I just completed 1 month, and this is the motivation I needed! Miller Multimatic, here I come! (In about 3 months though. Hopefully by Christmas)
Woooooohooooooo Xmas presents to yourself are the BEST;) Good for you man. Absolutely awesome to hear. Glad you’re taking control!
You end up getting that welder man?
@@mydinosaurz5479 not yet buddy. I'm saving up for a small truck first. Otherwise, how am I supposed to carry my welding rig around?😅 If all goes well, I'll have them by the middle of the year.
@@JosueLopez-cx8zs got em??
Hey Dusty,
My son is learning how to MIG weld and is interested in getting into welding AC tig aluminum, and we are curious if AC Tig is dangerous from the standpoint of getting shocked? We have a friend who tried to learn AC Tig welding and was getting shocked when learning and gave up, but is this something to worry about, or do you have tips to avoid getting shocked? We really enjoy the channel and thank you for teaching. Thanks
Hey John! If the machine is setup properly and safety warnings are read for each machine you use, you can minimize risk for sure. Dry gloves, no holes in long sleeve shirts etc, but there always is a small risk. I’d definitely recommend watching some vids on general safety, and you can see the most common ways people could get hurt. I myself can’t wait to teach my kids as well, and will make sure they’re safe with good ventilation and will be stoked to see them buzzing away someday:)
Thanks so much for the kind words and that’s awesome you’re teaching your son!
Another way to shock yourself is to use your bare arm to ground out the part, or not have the part grounded and have your arm on the table while striking arc....dont ask me how I know lol in short, protect your arms, check your ground, and u should be good to go sir! That's the only times I've been shocked tig welding
im a new welder about a year trying to teach myself how to tig weld, how do i know when im good enough to be able to start my own stuff? i still feel like i wont be able to for 20 years if i even live that long with the crap going on in the world lol
Instagram and TH-cam are great places to, not quite learn, but keep us on the correct heading of education hehe.
Love the shirt brother! Lol gotta get me one, never seen a ck weld jacket? Thinkin about that or a Fronius jacket, love the black and red/white. Made $330 on side in past 2 weeks from repairs. Bout to build a smoker too, have a barrel/body of a pit boss, for free, wondering how I should complete it, lemme kno if u got any ideas. Thanks bud, best of luck! Love ur talk sessions lol
Dude- you got AWESOME ideas! I see what
You do! I’d be super excited to see what you come up with! And thanks man. I appreciate the kind words. I always worry I ramble too much 😂
I see you have a Statue of lord Buddha. 😊 Giving is the best earning
Thank you very much for sharing your expertise..
I thought you were gonna tell us about stuff you've actually done not anecdotes.
Just tryin to help in any way I can 🍻
Why are you monetized if you make money welding?
@@kyleg8230 youtube is a business itself. Monetize everything.
@@kyleg8230that has to be the DUMBEST question in the world.
Давай русские субтитры очень интересно за ранее спасибо 🙏👍👍👍😁
🙏🙏🙏
Good info but you could have cut the first 6:30 minutes out of this and it would have been much better.... thanks
To much empty talk.
