    I've been a professional welder for 40 years, miller are top notch. I'm mainly a tig welder, I've done oil exploration ballast tanks for submarines recently, all aluminium, I'm now making bespoke 304 food industry equipment, all hand made, look up Gough engineering UK. That machine is excellent, but uphill should be slow and patient, with the torch pointing slightly north. The backwards Z trick is to watch it sink on the left corner, let it rise then move right, same again, then z up to the left to create the second part of the weave on the left and so on. It creates a double bead, with full penetration. I used to weld cut and stretch wagon chassis like this, with hiabs on.

    Another great video, thanks, Jody!
    Just to chime in with over 45 years of MIG experience on the "Push vs Pull" technique w/ gas shielding.
    From wayyyyyy back in the day, in the Navy and Oil Tanker shipyards working w/ Steel and other shipyards MIG welding all Aluminum Tuna Boats w/ "CobraMatics", we were ALWAYS required to Push a wire feed whenever possible for a number of reasons having to do with penetration and porosity.
    This is because as the nozzle is angled slightly in the direction of the weld, the shielding gas is pushing the atmosphere away from where the puddle is going to be created.
    It was determined that a "Pull" technique, with the nozzle aimed back towards the puddle, opposite the direction of travel actually placed little gas coverage in front of the puddle and the weld force tended to "suck" more atmosphere directly into the formation of the puddle as the angled nozzle moves away from the weld.
    I know it's Po-TAY-toe vs Po-TAH-toe, but except for real thin material or difficult circumstances, I still "Push" when ever possible based on 45 years of experience punching the clock in the yards and later, owning my own fabrication business.
    And Jody, Thanks again for ALL you do for the fabrication community!!!

    Thanks Jody, I've been having issues with uphill on my MM211 at home, and hadn't had a chance to read up on proper setup yet. This gives me something to try and get uphill figured out.

  • @garytodd5605
    @garytodd5605 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just recently purchased a millermatic 255. While trying to familureize myself to the new welder
    Did the push then pull then the vert down and then vert up with the auto settings for size of steel , gas and wire. I got even an uglier vert up. Now i know how to correct that. Thank you Jodi for sharing your welding expertise. I have Been welding 55 years plus. Age has deminished the eyesight and i no longer want to weld out of position. I' m to stiff and feel like i have fallen and cant get up. But as long as i can move im going to continue to go to the shop and enjoy the challenge. Still fun to learn and perfect what i think i know. My dad had a mobile welding service till he was 80. And lived to go weld something. His mistake, he retired.

    The “Mig Knuckle” works, it’s awesome!!!
    So just an update, I am about at the 2yr mark on watching all your videos! Just love them. Be Blessed!!!

  • @mitchdenner9743
    @mitchdenner9743 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Got to check out that mig knuckle, i was actually just using my tig finger xl not to prop but to shield the heat from mig welding my trailer. Funny how things work out. I guess all us welders experience the same things. Burnt knuckles, and holy boots.

  • @survivalguyfyi5718
    @survivalguyfyi5718 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Got to try that technique out. Just bought a Miller Multimatic 255 a few weeks ago. What an amazing machine! Replaced my Lincoln 180. That Pulse Mig is freakin awesome!!! Really excited to try this vertical uphill tomorrow. I’ll try it on short arc mig and pulse mig. Pulse mig seems to work better on everything I’ve tried so far.

    @grumpyone5963 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Thanks so much for all your welding tips. I’ve always struggled with vertical up with ugly looking welds. Probably because I never turned the power down thinking it wouldn’t get in there as much. Turns out that’s what I should have been doing all along. I’m going to practice some more to try and nail this technique once and for all. An appreciative UK viewer.

    I could watch this all day! So damn good! And thank you! I've always had a problem with uphill mig and I've always seen downhill mig break over time

    • @jonathonbridges9625
      @jonathonbridges9625 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Alittle bit late but mig downhill requires a serious attention to travel speed and gun angle. You can crank her up and let her eat but if you let that puddle catch up to your arc for even a blink of the eye it will not pass a bend test especially a downhill open root.

    • @MoltenMouseMetal
      @MoltenMouseMetal 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I wouldn't trust it on anything thicker than .125 or so. With a bit of root opening you can get reasonable welds on thin sheet going downhill, but let's face it... You're not gonna be putting up buildings made out of 10-ga :P

    Thank you for this video! I have been welding for about 45 years now with sticks and mig. 90% of my welding work upphill i do with sticks, in all other positions i use mig. But i newer learn to weld upphill with the mig, yesterday i welded a hook for an compactor with the mig but i did it from top to bottom! Lot of heat is needed beacuse we talk about lifting power from the full off waste compactor, maby 40 metric tons! But i will test you method and im shure i can do it! Thank you sir for good videos!

    I would like to see a cut and etch on a downhill vs uphill Mig. Just for shits and giggles. I do a little oval like stich when going uphill but going to give the old triangle a go next time. Thank you for the upload. You are by far my top place to watch weld videos.

Looking forward to more content like this! Oh, by the way, big fan of the TIG Finger! Putting together a shopping list for some of those clear furick cups and that MIG Knuckle!

    All the other welding sites have had to up their game to even be worth a look. Jody is still the best. I haven't used innershield in 20 years, until a few weeks ago. As i moved the torch to the work piece i could hear his voice explaining how to do the vertical uphill welds......
    By the way - Jody, what wire do you use for Dual Shield? Is it just regular flux-cored wire with C25 gas?

    I have a Vulcan Omnipro 220 and even though I’m use to setting up welders manually I didn’t think I would use the auto set that much, but after using it man it’s convenient, especially if your welding a few different thicknesses on the same project! Take care :)
