    Was welding some cast iron last week, stick…first time welding cast for anything other than a practice coupon…got some ni-rods and preheated it (when he says preheat, he’s not kidding, preheated it to 800 degrees) Came out really nice though, but damn those ni-rods go quick, and aren’t cheap…

    Fuck yeah!! Been wondering if any of my fellow welders have done reactions to our field according to "Hollywood." I'm so glad someone drew my attention here. I loved it!!
    I just noticed one mistake at 20:45 when you said "DC current". Take a listen again and you'll hear he's using AC.

    I do MIG and stick at college. Instead of requiring us to wear respirators each one of the welding bays has an overhead extractor.
    The only problems, of course, are they're expensive. £600 for each individual extraction tube. They're also very loud, especially when the workshop is busy and you've got 15-20 extractors going at the same time.

    That first scene from flash dance reminds me of when my helper handed me a wet 7018 rod back in 2018. I just kept tapping until he asked what was wrong. I should have checked that he pulled the supply from the warmer, not the ones laying on the flatbed. So it was my fault. We didn't make that mistake again, but we both had a great laugh about it 😂

    The worst welding/fabrication scene in a movie that i saw was in the second marvel black panther movie. A random girl needs to design and build a ironman-like suit and it show scene of a terrible oxy-acetylene torch cut and metal scraps falling to the floor. Then comes the final result, a gleaming sparkling suit perfectly designed and built

    A bronze nickle alloy is the standard for welding cast iron now. Larger shops use PAPRs for their welders instead of respirators. The reason why is they perform better and saves time for employees from having to shave during the shift also allows people with religious grooming requirements such as a full beard to work in the industry. Also, people with long hair are required to tie it up because of grinders that welders use all the time. I person have a long beard and long hair. I stuff my beard down my shirt and have my hair tied back

    The undersiege grenade scene was legit, the reason he stabbed a hole in the jug was to delay, as it pours out it gets lighter therefore at some point the grenade spring will overcome the weight and BOOM!

    We used buckets of sand heated up to about 800 degrees in a lucifer oven. The moment i finish my weld a couple guys would bury it with the hot sand and just let it cool real slow. If you let it cool in the air the cast would just crack right next to the new weld.

    Far be it from me to come to the defence of a Steven Seagall movie but if the pin is pulled on a grenade, it doesn’t ignite until after the lever is released. He propped it under the can so until the weight of the can decreases enough that the spring in the grenade can lift, the ignition process won’t have started.

  • @gehtdianschasau8372
    @gehtdianschasau8372 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It's like people using firearms or are driving in movies. It's absolutely unreslistic. My guess is, that the producers and directors have people that do stuff like that for them, so they don't know how it's actually done.
    Btw: 9:16 I like how you hold that filler rod. That way, you can ad more whitout changing grip. you can rest your wrist very stable and let the tumb, index- ringfinger and pinky do the job. It is rare to see that done properly. It's not just a small detail, this makes a real difference, especially when welding aluminium.
