I was watching another welding/repair channel. He was doing some torch work, and he said "its not as good as IC weld..." You are a master with a torch and welder. Thanks for the video.
I forgot to click the thumbs up when I watched this. San Antonio has a memory for me. We were on vacation back in the 70's and our CB radio was stolen while we were having lunch. I drove back to San Antonio three days later to buy another CB. We were in Cuero, Texas visiting friends.
As mentioned previously, I just came back from Austin and my daughter introduced me to "Buc-ee's" and that was the same one you went to. At Buc-ee's one item I stocked up on was the jerky.....................interesting place!
Even with camera battery issues I still enjoy watching. Love seeing your son working with you. And dang, that was the biggest gas station I've ever seen. Keep the videos coming.
Loved the vertical up welding technique you were using in this video!! Taking the electrode a bit further then coming back to the weld puddle just in time to keep the weld from running down. Perfect!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!! Excellent channel!!
WHOA !! Did I spy an electrode holder as a shift knob ? That deserves a short of its own along with being shown in the shop truck video. How freaking cool.
No apologies necessary, your videos are always top notch and your torch cutting is the smoothest and fastest that I have ever seen. The weld that you made on the 2nd truck to cover up 2 holes really looked good once you were finished welding it. Good to see your son learning the business from Dad. I noticed that he has been working/learning from you on a lot of jobs lately and in my opinion, he could not have found a better teacher.
I have been watching your channel for quite a while Isaac and have always thought you are probably one of the most humble artisans, great workmanship and I have learn so much just by watching your craft thank you very much. keep doing what you do.
I learned more working with my Dad than I realized at the time, Anybody can mess up a weld job. The skill required to repair is definitely on a higher plain. We are so dry here in central Illinois, I think I'm in Texas..... You do a much better job with your filters while welding than anyone else I watch. It is fascinating to watch your rod technique.
As a fab/line bore guy I work on underground mining equipment for a coal mines, I enjoy watching your videos and learning what I can here and there, keep up the good work!
I don't imagine this job stretched _your_ skills much but thank you for taking the time to share the lessons with your son and with us. I'm glad you had the time together on the drive; what you talked about is your business but that kind of quality time is priceless.
If that is ur son with u that is awesome that u get to bring him out on jobs with u and teach him more about the trade u r in. Great job love watching ur videos and learning
Really nice to see that young man with you. Kids that age nowadays want to stay inside and play video games all day. I hope someday he can learn to be as good as his Dad Love the video
That’s a pretty sweet rig you have there. That crane is a game changer. I like the manipulation you were doing on the thinner material. I’ll have to give that a try.
Have to appreciate another fellow who can use a torch like a scalpel. Becoming lost art. Pumps always a good time. Many auger and paddles replaced. As a career HDR/Welder (CWI now) I can’t say how much I appreciate you “keeping it real”. It’s not structural or pressure. Chuck that code book right out the window. Great work on the vids.
Good fix and fine helper. I used to herd a 10 1/2 yd. Mack mixer with a conveyor hung off the back of it and it was cracked somewhere all the time. Just had to weld and go on. BLESSINGS!
"That's no breaking... At least for a little while" That's why I like you keeping it real! Not really the joint design on that chute thing and it's very likely the engineer and welder at the factory did not care much about what happened several years down the road. Nice repairs as always my friend. Cheers
I enjoy watching skill and knowledge at work. You make working with metal look as easy as me spreading butter on bread. I know it ain't that easy, I'm really good at blowing holes. Thanks for your efforts.
I tried the push technique you used. I was always told not to do that. It worked great. I laughed because of the many of positions I had to get in so I wouldn't push the weld. Your videos have help me improve and the little tricks are priceless. Thanks for all the videos. If you are curious I had to weld bracket on a power plant. I did one before and I was strapped upside down by my legs your was is much easier and less blood to my face lol.
As usual, excellent job and again, great to see a young man learning a valuable trade! A word of advice, I come from the diesel industry and have seen first hand an issue that you can cause and be responsible for. ALWAYS disconnect batteries on any electronically controlled vehicle. Newer vehicles have multiple control modules, Engine ECM, Body control module, Trans control module, control modules for the mounted machine....like this mixer, it has a control module that interfaces with others on the vehicle. Remove B+ and B- from the battery posts and isolate them. Your ground can back feed voltage to the control modules and fry them. I saw multiple failures from welding that resulted in a tow from the plce it was welded on to my shop, we repaired the reason for a crank-no-start only to find that the BCM and TCM were fried as well as the Mc Nilus module. The engine part, with tow, because it was assumed warranty, was close to 5k. I do not know what the BCM/TCM and Mc Neilus bills were, if I were to guess, another 5k easily. Just be careful and CYA.
Happy to see your video this morning. I always learn something from you. MIG or flux is my go-to on those repairs but like seeing you do it with rod. Also, it's great seeing your son on the job. He seems to stay busy with something other than TicToc. He may become a brain surgeon or possibly president, but he will always have skills to use in getting there or latter. Hope to see you again soon.
What I'd give to work with/for you for a month or two, if I still had it in me. Maybe I do maybe I don't. Doesn't matter, doctors would never give me a green light anyway. Anyway, always enjoyable to watch you and your son at work. Y'all have a good one and be safe out there!
Best guess on the holes that showed up at 14:30 ish was an attempt to drill out the ends of the previous crack, followed by a less-than-ideal weld patch. Obviously a poorly engineered support member, since it showed up on two machines. Needs a plate sistered to it there to strengthen it.
Love watching your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them and post them, I know it takes a lot of time. I put a welding rig together in 2020 after getting laid off, but then just went back to the company that I was laid off from. The wife wasn’t happy with me working away from home. I’d like to get back to doing my own thing again at some point, we’ll see. Keep living the dream.
I was watching another welding/repair channel. He was doing some torch work, and he said "its not as good as IC weld..." You are a master with a torch and welder. Thanks for the video.
haha, funny.
On fire welding a good guy giving respect where respect is due
I watched that too! I laughed so hard!
Haha that was me.
@@OFW You are a highly skilled professional, which you demonstrated by recognizing the skills of another professional.

Outstanding work my friend !!! Jr has the best teacher in Texas !!!
Those 1 day little jobs are fun, especially that you have your boy with you, hangin out working and having lunch, great video👍🏽
Many of the exceptional metal workers on TH-cam refer to your videos often. Your knowledge and skill is exceptional
Nice work! 👍👍👌👌 Buck-ees is the best!
It sure is!
I always enjoy seeing your apprentice who is learnding from the best.
I like the fact that you mounted your crane in the middle of your truck.
👍😉🇺🇲

Buc-ee's is awesome!! If you ever have a chance visit one!!!
Thanks Isaac!
Always fun finding hidden gems when you work over someone elses patchwork.. Nice repair..
Loved the vertical up welding technique you were using in this video!! Taking the electrode a bit further then coming back to the weld puddle just in time to keep the weld from running down. Perfect!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!! Excellent channel!!
Glad it was helpful!
WHOA !! Did I spy an electrode holder as a shift knob ? That deserves a short of its own along with being shown in the shop truck video.
How freaking cool.
You are correct
You remind me of my dad the way you weld and cut it is a great pleasure to watch you and pass it on to your son be safe and have a great day Sam
Awesome video. Looking forward to watching your other videos. Thanks!
*interesting video! good luck to you and everyone)* 👍🏽🔥🔥
Man I hope your boy knows what a good thing he has going!!! 👊👊
Damn, more roadway than living space.
And gas stations a mile wide...
Funny if you compare that to Switzerland, where roads are tiny.
I'm glad you found a pump at the gas station, I was worried just the biggest gas mega station I ever seen..👍👍👍👍😎😎🤣
Props to you for teaching your son a great trade and props to him for being willing to go and learn.

Another fantastic repair! Torch, gouging, & some 7018's.....all in one video- Thanks!
Keep a charger in the truck! We love the long videos!!
That technique you use with your stick work is useful thank you
Love to see the father son team at work. Truck looks beautiful.
Just love seeing you work with your son! Keep up the great videos!
I think there are countries smaller than the fuel station you visited! nice video, great teamwork
Bucees is really the best fuel station around

Short or long, I always learn something. Even better, watching a skilled craftsman doing what he does best, is always, always a treat especial.
Always learning while watching your vids.
Another great video! Thanks for bringing us along!
Brilliant repairs
Another job masterfully done!
I remain envious and in awe. Great work by a master. Thanks for your time.
As a fab/line bore guy I work on underground mining equipment for a coal mines, I enjoy watching your videos and learning what I can here and there, keep up the good work!
As a roadside mechanic, i'm having a love hate relationship with the rain 😂

Really nice to see that young man with you. Kids that age nowadays want to stay inside and play video games all day. I hope someday he can learn to be as good as his Dad
Love the video
Beautiful rig IC! Love learning so much from your videos brother! Blessings from Michigan!!!
That’s a pretty sweet rig you have there. That crane is a game changer. I like the manipulation you were doing on the thinner material. I’ll have to give that a try.
I did a lower case "d" shaped pattern while concentrating most of the heat on the thicker part.
@@ICWeld
yeah that was cool...
@@ICWeld I have seen you use the "d" pattern before and started using it for a wide weld in thinner material, It really does work!
Thanks for sharing anyways, it was very interesting nonetheless mr. Weld Boss Man :D
Thank junior for the assistence and camerawork!
I’ve learned more from mr I C weld then I ever thought possible. ! And that rod end of da cylinder got eaten by da grease worms !!
Yes, Variety is the spice of life
Thanks for the great content….. Awesome rig 🔥
Your kid seems just as down-to-Earth as you are. Good job.

Love to watch you weld ,I learn something new every time ,thank you nice to see your son working with you ,he's learning from one of the best .
Nice job, I remember my pop showing me that welding pattern
I enjoy watching skill and knowledge at work. You make working with metal look as easy as me spreading butter on bread. I know it ain't that easy, I'm really good at blowing holes. Thanks for your efforts.
Superb! Teaching what works! Commitment to quality! Thanks!
It sticks thats why its called stick welding 😂 good job ic
You are a wizard with a stick machine. So impressive 👍👍
I tried the push technique you used. I was always told not to do that. It worked great. I laughed because of the many of positions I had to get in so I wouldn't push the weld.

Cool seeing ur son take up the trade.
Love seeing your son out there with you need more parents that do that. Even if he dose not go into your field he will have a great work ethic
Great job! And that gas station - I've never seen anything like that before....
Obviously the best welder in the state that was some distance you went, what a great days learning with the lad in toe to👍
Nice work men!
Always a pleasure to watch a professional work so efficiently, good to get the son involved!
Nice work as usual, good to see a company letting you do preventive matanance rather than breaking it first

Loved the Warp Speed !!!
Looking good keep up great job.thankyou much.
That's one heck of a repair truck you have!
Great Stuff Issac, wishing you a productive and hopefully 'cool weather' today and tomorrow....hot over here in Florida.....cheers, Paul
Excellent work and exquisite workmanship. Your truck is amazing as well.
Carrying your youth along, I like that.
Great video, great tip on extending the weld on thinner metal. Most bosses have never heard of doing P.M., run stuff till it breaks.
Good job for you and minny you 👏
You always amaze me with how precise you get with a torch. Keep up the great work!
very nice, thanks for the lesson
Love your truck Isaac , what a rig !
It’ll look good waiting for a transmission too
@@daleolson3506 ever actually owned a dodge? Seems like the people who talk the most shit on other vehicles are the guys who haven't owned one
Y’all do amazing work. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!!!!!!
Thank you Isaac. You are a great teacher. Their must be a half ton of weight on that little fitting when It is full of cement plus Its own weight.
I love watching these heavy equipment repairs! Great camera shots of your technique, they are very instructive.
You definitely use the carrie on pliers for everything very handy tool you carry
Happy to see your video this morning. I always learn something from you. MIG or flux is my go-to on those repairs but like seeing you do it with rod. Also, it's great seeing your son on the job.

That was great really enjoyed thanks.
Great job guys.
nice explanation of the reapirs made..pretty straightforward,yet well explained..glad to see you passing the trade along to your son A+++++
Nice looking welding rig.
Best guess on the holes that showed up at 14:30 ish was an attempt to drill out the ends of the previous crack, followed by a less-than-ideal weld patch.
Obviously a poorly engineered support member, since it showed up on two machines. Needs a plate sistered to it there to strengthen it.
Got to say I really enjoy your videos please keep making them .
I could hear you say thanks for watching fading lol awesome videos brother
Very cool work. Wish I had a gouging machine.
Great demonstration how to do it right. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Love watching your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them and post them, I know it takes a lot of time. I put a welding rig together in 2020 after getting laid off, but then just went back to the company that I was laid off from. The wife wasn’t happy with me working away from home. I’d like to get back to doing my own thing again at some point, we’ll see. Keep living the dream.
Thanks for showing!
That's a badass truck
