Welding full time now making things out of metal pipe plate beams handrails erecting on site welding on site all because I bought a welder and practice and spent £500 on a welding course traveled two hours aday to a steel erecting job fitting then two home takes effort if I can weld any one else can to 🎉❤
My daughter took 3rd place in her welding competition. The first and second place went to guys that were graduating. She has another semester to go. She is happy with her result and loves what she is doing. Thanks again for the encouragement!
That's great! The competitions that I was in welding really helped my drive and got me prepared for the future test. Tell her congratulations women make awesome welders
Apprentice fitter out of 393, been practicing my ua-21. Your videos have been a lot of help brotha, Hard finding welders willing to share in depth knowledge like this. 🤟
@@TaylorWeldingit’s amazing to see someone actually helping ive done every thing i can to contact someone for about a year and no one will respond ive even offered to pay for advice. TH-cams all ive had
I grew up framing houses with my dad 11 and up, and that was one of the first things he taught me even earlier in life, was the hammer would hit where my eyes were focused!
No book can teach this kind of skill! Also rare to find such a good teacher! Thanks for giving back to the community that made you a living and helping make it easier for new welders!
Really cool taking the time to help a guy out I wish I had more people like that around my area I’m 90% self taught through trial and error but repairing farm equipment I kinda lucky with lots and lots of practice I used to read book after book I could find at the library on welding and a few older guys would pitch a tip my way as a kid but not allot I sure would like to work next to someone like you and really take my welding skills to a new level and possibly even get on a pipeline as a welder some day this is becoming one favorite channels on welding thank God for TH-cam it’s really helped reaching out and getting more perspective from different people on what or whatnot to do just more tools in the tool room and I feel more confident tackling new jobs I haven’t tried before and it’s working out better for the customers I help also everyone wins 👍
Thank you for your comment. I’ve learned so much on TH-cam it’s crazy. Ask any questions and will do my best to answer it or possibly make a video about it.
Man you’ve helped me so much, I’m not a natural at running beads. I’m 66 years old and trying to figure it out and do it right. There are several things you can’t help me with, one is I’m getting pretty shaky but I’m doing all right, another one is bad rods. I bought some cheap 6010’s at the welding supply that are red, I’ve tried everything and can’t make them work so I bought some of the better rods that are Lincoln 5p+ and man they are great and run smooth, 3/32 or 1/8. I’m welding with a 2010 miller bobcat, I almost bought a vantage 300 when I bought the miller but wish that I would have bought the vantage now. Thanks for all the help.
I find your videos very interesting because they are real world, not some guy in a laboratory with perfectly cleaned flat metal doing a butt weld. I only use TIG on sheet steel 18-20 gauge. If you have the interest there could be a lot of viewers who are looking to learn practical tips about this same process. Thank you.
True color lenses are a big advantage. You can actually see what colour the weld/arc/markings are. No more green or yellow. 3M has several true colour lenses, ESAB aswell, the ESAB A40 true colour helmet is the same lens that the ESAB sentinel helmet has. Only cost around 100-150$ depending on country.
WOW 😮! You’re a great teacher 🙌. Wish that I lived close to you so I could learn how to weld by the BEST. This was fun 🤩. Btw I thought that you never wore shirts with pockets while welding….
Hey bud Iam from lake Charles started at 14 welding thru school and on weekends took pipe test in plants and learned mig in shops, became a crane operator but thinking bout getting back into after all these years just bought another 77 Sa 200, love your stuff brother, would like to talk to you
te-fu-awe is how you pronounce it. and i love their lenses. they just released a chopped version of a pipeliner, im thinking of picking up it to try one. they got a flip up lens version and a normal fixed version like the traditional honeywell hoods
@TaylorWelding I always said te-fua-we but heard it pronounced in a video by one of their reps as te-fu-awe. And yeah I'm thinking about it! Nice thing is, it's painted like a silvery color. I'd just have to chop the top flat and add a leather cap to it like my other pipeliners. And will do!
What’s your thoughts on the union? I’m about to graduate and I want to pursue a career in welding and my local union has reached out to me to try and get me to work through them. What are the downfalls and upsides? Would you recommend doing it? Thanks.
Honest question here: Austin did a two bead cap with 7018. If you're worried about the slag getting in front of the puddle, how come you don't just run uphill from the bottom instead of downhill from the top? I've watched a lot of your videos and they're very informative. Thanks for all the help you given me.
How do you start out getting a pipe welding and fitting job for the oilfield/ oil and gas companies? Do you contract yourself as a welder/fitter or do you have to have a welding rig, do you walk on a refinery and ask? Call big name companies? Go to a welding company and hire on with them? I’m thinking about going to a welding school just to get a lot of reps and learn TIG and downhill. I also have a year+ of pipe fitting. Any help would be so awesome.
All of the above Joe. I’m not being a smart ass either. Do whatever it takes. School is a great place to straighten the learning curve. Highly recommend it as far as what school doesn’t matter too much. Just make sure they’re willing to help you with your questions, and if you have any questions, ask me, I’ll do my best to help you
Any recommendations for building up material? I have an AC welder, needed to make drive wheel that connected directly to an electric motor shaft. I found four pipes that tightly nested and was able to cut the first for the keyway. But, I needed to increase the outside diameter about 1/2" - 3/4". I started with 6011 at 75-85 Amp... but switched to 6013 and turned it down to 60-65 Amps for the last couple of layers. All of these rods were 3/32". They didn't want to build up material very much. I did a diagonal criss-cross patern instead of solid. Any ideas? Thanks
@@TaylorWelding Yes, I am using what I have. I do have 1/8" 7018s, (from when I was using a DC welder to build our horse barn.) I have some 1/8" 6013s, but thought I would encounter a lot of sticking at the lower Amps. Plus I had 4 times as many 3/32" rods. The material is a cylinder with a 5/8" arbor hole, then is built up to be about an inch thick just with the three nested pipes. The outermost pipe is probably about 1/4" thick. I managed to get 3/8"-1/2" of metal added to this through multiple weld/grind cycles. After welding, I would securely attach it to the motor, turn it on, locate the high spots, grind them down enough to run the angle grinder on it while it was spinning to level the surface, and add more material where it was still low.
@@TaylorWelding Since I am self taught, and only sporadically weld, I believe that it is possible to not have the power high enough to get a good weld, or get interference from foreign material that will keep the weld from penetrating appropriately. This would create a huge build up of material, but without being secure, which I don't want. I had forgotten that the 6011s were deep penetration rods, that is why I started with them instead of 6013s. Should I use other material, (like old rods cleaned of flux), to build up the thickness of the weld quicker? I didn't think of that while I welding on it. Thanks for all your help!
I come from a structural, shipyard background where everything is uphill welding. Is downhill standard for stick welding pipe? Or is this just for the root? Havent looked through all the videos yet
Question Chris, you guys were beading with 1/8”. What heat were you running for that small of a gap? And then another question, if you were running a 3/32 Gap and beading with 1/8”, what heat would you run? I got a vantage 400, and I’m gonna be getting into pipe welding within the next few months, I’m just trying to learn my machine for 6010, been struggling with it when I practice
I don’t know what to tell you other than practice. Every fit it’s different, every machine is different, If it was me, I would not run a 3/32 gap But that’s what most uphill welders like. I would running a little bit tighter and little bit hotter.
About time for a video, ? I,am a shaded tree welder going to work on my truck what rod do I use on Frame 6011 or 6013 weld up hill or down. Jack from Va you should have my phone number
What I'd give to have one of those old school stick stingers you have.

It’s good to be back. Since last time I commented, I passed my red seal up in Alberta
Just on time man I just bought 2 pipe bevelers and been practicing after work when I can! I’ve been playing around with 5/32 8010 !
That's cool jonathan let me know if you have any questions. Keep on practicing. You just need to spend time behind the welding rods

You would have to teach me how to do that. I’ve never welded 20 gauge steel. Well, I guess I have, but not professionally.
Are you reinforcing the weld or pipe?
Nice looking hot pass, especially considering it's a 8010 rod
Chris thank for your information to the young people, I need to get my g-son started welding he's 10 yrs old 😊
It's never too early I started getting interested in it when I was about 12

Great video, thanks for the tips and visual instructions!
i could watch this all day. it just fascinating!
cool
Glad to see another welding video Your the man keep them coming brother

I don't unless they have a flap. It's something you have to learn. Hot nips will teach LOL
👍 Greetings from Croatia
Hello there!
If you step step step out of it, will it make an arc flash on the weld?
useful stuff thanks learning lots here.
Hey bud Iam from lake Charles started at 14 welding thru school and on weekends took pipe test in plants and learned mig in shops, became a crane operator but thinking bout getting back into after all these years just bought another 77 Sa 200, love your stuff brother, would like to talk to you
That's cool man I have done all those things as well. I really enjoyed operating a crane it just did not pay the same.
Thank you man. Very helpful
Thanks for making this
te-fu-awe is how you pronounce it. and i love their lenses. they just released a chopped version of a pipeliner, im thinking of picking up it to try one. they got a flip up lens version and a normal fixed version like the traditional honeywell hoods
Thank you. Wasn't sure how to pronounce it. If you get the hood Let me know if you like it. And use my code to save 15%.
@TaylorWelding I always said te-fua-we but heard it pronounced in a video by one of their reps as te-fu-awe. And yeah I'm thinking about it! Nice thing is, it's painted like a silvery color. I'd just have to chop the top flat and add a leather cap to it like my other pipeliners. And will do!
@@TaylorWelding glad to see you're back to making videos. Have been lookin in anticipation for them because I like your vids alot
Solid advice thank you
I really enjoy your videos. Did I understand correctly that y'all are capping this off with 7018 downhill?
No. If I said that I didn’t mean to.
@TaylorWelding thanks man. I was wondering if I'd missed some kind of major secret.
Great job ... teaching ....
I appreciate that Wilmar. I hope you're doing good bud getting too hot.

What part of louisiana do you live in
For the hot pass, do you necessarily have to “step” “oval” shape pattern or can I just go side to side like im doing the cap.
Whatever works buddy. Everybody Welds different. But remember a hot pass is hot. You don’t have a lot of time to screw around.

Holy Moly 3/32 gap is way too big. if I had to run a 3/32 gap I would turn it down Or maybe use a 5/32 6010
@@TaylorWelding I guess I should have clarified. I’m doing a 5G/2G weld, 6” sch80. It’s for my initial B pressure. Hence why I’m running 3/32 gap
Bon Boulo😆😆👍👍
More uphill pipe content if you can good sir
10/4
Crazy we run uphill 6010 all day my teachers would bug if they saw me dragging a slug downhill
Any tips for someone comfortable running a 6010 uphill if they find themself in a situation where the wps calls for downhill?
I don’t know what to tell you other than practice. Every fit it’s different, every machine is different,

60105p how hot
all machines are different. Hot as you can stand it
Honestly very averages skilled welder , a lot of bad technique and habits developed
I’m sorry to hear that. Keep watching you’ll get better.
About time for a video, ? I,am a shaded tree welder going to work on my truck what rod do I use on Frame 6011 or 6013 weld up hill or down. Jack from Va you should have my phone number
Neither. A frame needs “elongation” (aka: elasticity). You need 7018 minimum.
If it was me I would use 6010 to burn it in good and then put a 7018 on top of it. I don't know anything about 6011 or 6013.
good point
