We are continuing our series on restarts this week with a lesson on how to restart in the middle of your fill and cap passes with 7018. The most important thing to remember when you strike your restart is that you need to strike above the point where you ended last, long arc down to the highest point of the bead, fill it in and then continue on with the weld.

You da man Bob!
I've been welding for 28 years, but I've not done everything through those years, due to limited equipment or procedures at places I've worked.
Never too old to learn and I always pick up a little something from your videos. I wish there was a way to come out and take a course from you, because I would love to learn more!
Thanks for the continued videos, advice and help!!
Bob moffit is the man I always learn a lot when I watch videos when hes instructing I'll even go back and rewatch his videos
This guy is a character, no doubt about it! I'm really looking forward to hearing about how his experience with the MTS 221 STi and which positives exceed his expectations. Not having to touch the machine after several stops, starts, and solid arc initiation is good.
Watching you weave that bead makes me want get out do some welding again... I don't do much any more sense retiring about 14 years ago. Thanks for the memories and a good video!
After 6 weeks in an evening arc welding course at the local college, I am finally getting the hang of it (ran some pretty decent beads last night, if I do say so myself. ha) Plus I am understanding your stick videos so much better. This is great information that you provide, for free! Thanks for your time and effort. And thanks to camera guy for his work as well.
Wayward Woodworker Glad to hear it. Thanks for the feedback.
I've learnt a lot also from these videos thanks so much for making these
As someone who is just beginning to learn welding, Thank you
Iv's just started welding school and this is going to help a lot on my restarts, thank you.
Bob keeping it real. Gotta love it.
Thanks bob great welding. Slow mo camera shots were great and very helpful. I could see the weldpool very clear Cheers Camera Guy
Bob thank you for helping teach the art of the puddle. When i first started i couldnt understand focusing on the puddle and how to know if my travel and deposition rate were in good sync.
Bob Moffatt is like the Bob Ross of welding. I can watch Moffatt welding for hours and it’s just damn relaxing!
When you slowed down the video to tie in your next weld that was key for me. I got this video on my favorites now thanks Bob👍👍👍👍
great
The ends of these are always my favourite.
lmao same here
I have noticed you keep your rod pointed straight in or slightly Down when running uphill.. why is that? I was taught to hold it 5-10 degrees upward when welding uphill
After getting my Everlast I started learning with this rod 3/32 7018 and I've learned it's helpful to have a flat file on the side to hit the slag covered tip on. That's about the only good use for a harbor freight file.
Best teacher on TH-cam
That was an absolutely beautiful fill... Wow
Good Improved and Learning.. Thank Mr Bob Moffat 👌💪
Thanks 🙏 for a example 💯
I want to learn more, I decided to watch your videos sir.
great job
Another great vid thanks ✌️👍👍🤘🤘🤘
Lol are you me? What 😳
I imagine you could weld with a pair of booster cables and a coat hanger. Love your videos and have learned a bunch as a hobby welder.
Awesome work,your crown is high due to you just going across-I’ve used a horizontal figure 8-cap is always flat and flux peels off! Looks really good
Great Man
Live long healthy
Love u
I wish i could come learn fom you. You are a way better teacher and from the looks of it a way better welder than th CWI CURENTLY making money off of not teaching me anything. My girlfriends family if from mear your school, so I may be a student of yours one of these days.
Nice thanks
like Number 1000. cheers!
i know this is a 2 year old video, but I was always told to break your arc halfway on 7018. the first time you terminated the arc it looked to be on the left side. like on a weave break it halfway in the middle. the reasoning for this is when you start up top(like you did) it gives the rod a chance to heat up and so you burn out the porosity of the long arc and also it gets a little easier to look smooth because it has a bit longer to heat up so it wets out a bit better.
Looks good to me
Man one day I’ll uphill cap low hy like that. 🤙🏾
Thanks for another great video. I have a question about stopping. I was told to quickly move the rod backward and up from my
stop point. It appears that you pull the rod straight up. Does it matter? This may seem trivial. Thanks in advance.
Good video, I use a piece of a broken file on a fat magnet to clean the rid tip. When I was welding truck chassis there was rarely a clean surface close by to use. An older welder taught me that and other tips.
Good idea as long as you don't stick it on the frame or any steel part your welding on and have it arc every time you scrape the rod on it. I take it you lay it down next to you.
Let me add, maybe the magnet does not conduct electricity. I'll have to try it.
Eddie Kawecki pretty sure magnets are made with ferrous materials.
Angle the rod uphill slightly to avoid that drippy bead look👍
Sweet video. Just passed 3G now moved onto 4G 👍
drumtwo4seven congrats man! I just passed my 5g 6” x Ray test
Ctekz
SWEET!!!
Could you please show this position as it's done in a welding test?
I always sling the molten drop of slag off the end of my rod before it cools. Perfect restart every time
Zack Baumgardner
Gonna try this
What do you mean by this?
He means when you are finished a pass flick the electrode (in a safe direction) immediately after and that slag will come off in a molten state before it has a chance to solidify. Makes it so you have a nice clean electorde to start without having to tap or file it.
Can you do a video making your jigs for vertical plate.
And 🍕 this insructor is kinda cool. Almost no chipping on 7018 the slag pops up by itself but he knows this lol off subject
"Ut- oh cops are here." Haha great video
One thing that I have noticed in your multi pass welding demonstrations is what is done to the prior pass. I notice that you only wire brush the previous pass. I work in the pipeline industry and the common practice is that when the prior pass is completed, it is then ground so that it is smooth and does not have any ripples from the previous pass. What are your thoughts on this?
Hot pass on thick metals is cool. But I want more thin rusted metal repairs with stick welding tricks.
Can you do a p91 chrome pipe test?
Can we see the same run with a 6010 electrode? I'd like to see the difference.
Wow Bob your channel is bloody amazing really professional. Top class. Just love the work you do. Now what do I buy arc mig tig. I'm leaning more to arc/tig.
Bob when I find a suitable welder could I get your advice on it. Ounce I've found one.
I'm restoring a 80yr old metal lathe. And the back gear cover got damaged in transit and needs repairing. It's cast iron. I do intend to learn first before I even attempt to try and repair it. But I got in touch with a local company & they wanted to charge me £250 on one side of the flange . And both sides needs doing. I just can't afford £500 for the repair.. I've watched quit a few of your videos now and I'm thoroughly enjoying your channel thanks for all the effort teaching us new to welding really is appriciated. And a big Hi from across the pond UK 👍👍👍👍
cast Iron blows. If you don't preheat and post heat or throw it in sand when your done it'll crack.
You should make a bend test for these 'Tied In' restarts 😎
I just failed one of my tests (1G ) because the wire wheel and manual brush still left slag i didn't notice. :(
was gonna ask how far back do you restart but u hit it.
Really cool video. Trying to get my touch back with stick. I was wondering how many amps you’d run on an everlast with. 1/8 7018 3G. I can get a good bead with 115 but any more amps and it’s not happy. Any advice is helpful
Adam Johanson I run 1/8 from 95-115
How to get the bead flat? Mine isn't flat
Hey bob is it true if your running 7018 right at the correct temp it should just peel back like a banana or scorpions tail
Agustin Hernandez good amperage setting, good arc length, and clean steel, then yes you can do, more often than not it seperates completely and falls off. The peeler effect is more exagerated with an iron powder or a rutile rod such as a 6013
Ale ci chodzą te witki :)
“Bright red to dark red that’s how tall it is” this was in reference to the weld puddle. Which is tall, bright red or dark red?
I restarted this video. sometimes you can't knock it out in one pass.
Hello Mr.Bob , good teaching video ,i am learning a lot .I do have a question for you about 7018 rod .
Can you clarify this for me once and for all !!
The vendor tells me not to buy 7018 rod if i have only a couple of welds to do ..!!!????
Because he says , once the package of rod is open , i have to use them all right away ????
To prevent humidity , and they won't be of any use after a couple days ????
He pushes me 7014 rod instead
What do you think of that ( i know that any type of wet rod will not work but to that point ??)
Thanks in advance
Serge ( from Mtl )
S Faucon Should store them in an oven for code work. You can run them just fine for quite sometime after the box is open. Why not a 10 lb can?
Sir the reasoning behind that is the 7018 rod is what is know as a low hydrogen fast fill rod it absorbs moisture from the air the best and only way to prevent that is to keep them in a oven specifically designed for low hydrogen rods
merlyn703 Yes, I know it is low hydrogen. Not fast fill. Fill/freeze.
Thanks you two and Bob for you replues , very appreciated and direct to the point
Thank you so much !!!!!!
S Faucon if you plan to store them for a while just store them in a sealable container with a moisture pack to absorb any moisture that may be in the rods. That's why when you buy something that comes with a silica gel pack you keep it. You can dry the packs out in a microwave to reuse them. Also Walmart sells 2lb Lincoln electric packs for $5-6 same as harbor freight but Lincoln's are much better.
When you restart, do you ever have to worry about slag getting trapped under the beginning of the next weld with that long arc downward movement?
WILSON! You are not really depositing Almost Any metal by doing so. Just leave arc marks Which you cover by Welding over Them. I would think That three is much higher risk of slag trap, by starting directly on the previous pass, with a short arc. The long arcing heats the rod very quickly, and then When you stop To form the weld pool, its hot and liquid straight away. And so it blends and penetrates in very Well, and makes a smooth looking restart also. Hope this helps. I live in Finland, Where We stickweld with 7018 only, open roots Also. So there is a lot of restarts and They have To be x Ray quality. These are my thoughts That have helped me a lot.
Wow, thank you. I appreciate it.
Does that not create slug inclusions
What is the trick to get the slag to come off easily? Very seldom does mine come off like your's.
Tom Herd Short arc, consistent travel speed.
is this machine a good one please compare to a miller and others ???
Miller is better
This videos, you can traslate to The spanich, thank
I bought a surplus of old ESAB OK 21.03, they are gouging/cutting electrodes. I used them per instructions but they do not work, they just give a small burst like they should but then "turn off" so to speak, almost like my amps would go way down (they dont, other larger rods burn fine). It was a sealed, full pack, although old, and they dont atleast feel wet. Does anyone know if they can be saved by drying (what temp/time?) or is the shielding material just broken down by time so it doesn't hold the blowing jet like it should?
I also got full packs of stainless and hard facing electrodes from the same pile, they seem to work just fine.
Catrik moisturiser is not the issue. Some machine's won't run them. Maybe try to increase arc force. But I would say that you should try them on an other machine.
No arc force, it's just a simple inverter. ESAB catalog says it doesn't need any special manchinery and it's supposed to work on all machnines.. I'll have to try to find some other machine to try them on.
Uphill root uphill hotpass.. was for the sole purpose of just to do it? I don't think I've ever put a root or hotpass in uphill unless 1. Absolutely had to because of a jammed up fit or it was tig.. benefits of doing So? I'm just used to oilfield work where we do everything downhill
Downhill pipe - API. Uphill - ASME
Are you supposed to go uphill on asme code? Honest question. I've tested for boiler companies thru the asme code but still run downhill root and hotpass 7018 fill and cap
Or ist it like a preference
Righandwelder1202 For example, Most part of Europe welds with 7018 all the Way out, open roots, pipe, even stainless pipe with stick, x Ray ofc. And of course uphill. So, i would say, That it just depends on That Where you happen To be doing the work.
Bob everyone makes a mistake I've been welding since 1975 it happens to me also.
"Oh oh... The cops are here." is my new sms alert sound.
Vax 4200 He showed up for lunch.
Camera guy can verify...
I figured he showed up for donuts...
Camera guy can verify... Is that for real or just a rhyme? :)
What does the 332 mean ??
3/32nds rod diameter. Its just the size of the electrode.
That's the problem with 7018s, frequent restarting. 6013s in the right hands can finish the job fast and proficiently.
Weave and angle to the leading edge. Hate that tiny undercut.
7018 for most part dosent need a chipping 🔨 the slag almost falls off by itself lol
Lanny Fuller J if u got everything right
What size is the diameter of electrode
1/8
The video has audio. 3/32 E7018
No, 3/32"
I stand corrected
Perhaps you needed the metric equal size. Aprox 2.4mm is 3/32. In Australia the measuring system is now Metric, however I grew up with the inch system and need to know both. Hope this helps, cheers from John. PS Here most Of the time they are sold as 2.5 in metric.
Well why are my instructors telling me that weaving is not good and isn't allowed on weld tests? Everything for us is stringers and it's a lot harder to keep slag out of that weld when you have to run stringers.
Training Grounds As far as I know it Varies, some people want stringers some want weaves, the usual reason weaves are not allowed is because weaves tend to put more heat into the metal, and this can theoretically cause a failure in the heat affected zone. At the end of the day I recommend learning both, in the field you will definitely use them both
It's all about the weld test. You get the job if you pass the weld test and that's what these videos are about. So are you saying you have experience with companies accepting weaves in their weld tests in order to get a job with them? Or are you just saying that in the field you can do both? I'm talking about the weld tests and it's my understanding that you are never allowed to use weaves on the weld test. I can do both myself if I were on the job but you can't get that job without passing their weld test which always require stringers.
Training Grounds I’m actually in welding school myself so most of what I know is anecdotal, but according to my instructors, weaves are sometimes allowed on weld tests, it will be specified of course, and usually when they are allowed they are limited to 2 1/2 times the diameter of the electrode.
🇱🇷 A+
ну всё это замечательно но сварить все 7016 электродами не каждый сможет и корень и облицовку.
Can that ever last run on 240 volt.
killboy 633 Yes.
So I can use this at home. If so please be available to Australia next year at least.
UH OHHH Cops are subscribed to this channel too
B S !
Glass ball on 7018 rod.... have pliers in back pocket and pinch it off. Ya get gett'r dun faster than a quick draw gunfighter.
He would fail a X-ray how far up he we started lol plus he’s not even in the 3G position Lol 😂
boring old flog
