The old retired welder,going threw some old video's lol I knew you ironed your own shirts I used sta-flo they was so stiff they would stand up by themself see I had a stroke they found a blood clot on my brain it affected my left side the funny thing is I was left handed I was one hell of welder now I can't even write my name you bring back a lot of memories waiting on some new videos of my fence lol
Wow...that looks like a lot of work for a fence. Impressed to see tradesmen that take such pride in their work!! Something you don’t see much anymore. Great job sir.
it stinks to go from making the big money to doing smaller jobs but if its close to home its better and being your own boss is priceless so the trade off is worth it. good video and real nice fence
Nice and clean job.. I been a welder for over 15 years and I just started doing my own business on welding and fabrication.. The only thing I don’t know is how much To charge for the job..great video
I’ve watched a bunch of your videos and just now realized you’re in Stillwater too! I was just at Stillwater Steel last week. We have land out by Coyle and I’m welding up my first ever pipe fence tomorrow using your tips!
Man that's a lot of welding, but looks just like mine when I use to weld em,mild steel uphill or down hill maybe even one sml pass with 3/32 7018 but to each his own but I love your work you remind me of my self a long time ago stay safe
Never mind on how you cut the pipes I just saw your video from last week, and it answered my question on the pipe joints. Clean job it's nice I learned something new with that hole cutter on the torch.👍
I never thought about using electric fence wire grate ideas that was my problem 1 day fence on,next day over 3.5 to 5 in out of whack 1 way or another took me 3 day before got calm days to set all my post I've got about 1200ft to go I'm going to try it
Nice quality work. Can't financially justify 2 passes, 1 w/ 80 series rod on schedule 40 pipe w/ static pressure, way over match on filler rod. Anyway you will figure it out. Oh, 35+yrs welding, did a bit of pipe fence in my day tho.
CLC knee pads eh? Liked their open 10ish x 16ish open tool bags with shoulder strap enough that after 18-20 years of use I replaced it with the same tool bag (same bag with a couple changes they made). Still fits in my locker at end of day, tools right where I want them (unless someone else moves them, then they "lost" "forever"). The guys in the shop know how to "throw me off." CLC, good stuff even though mine isn't leather.
interesting to see how a pipe fence looks so nice. I used to work with a guy who retubed boilers and kept all the old tubes for fencing at his own place etc
I am running 5/32 6011 root & 7018 final pass. Was a welder over 20 years ago and am a bit rusty. Never hear of 8010, are you using a different rod for the root pass then 8010 or vise versa?
I use a 5/32 for that kind of fit, just one pass. It is easier to cap with a 5/32 with a 6010 root in there but sometimes you don’t need to run a bead there.
Just realized who you were. I stayed with Chip and Nancy while I was working at the pump station for trans-canada line. I think we we're fixing some fence where the blue roan horses were at. Tell Chip and Nancy hi
Very nice work. We live in the choctaw area and would sure like to have fence across the front of our acreage like this with a gate installed. About what do y'all charge for 300 ft straight run with a nice gated entry for the front of our acreage... .
Hey DW lol in one of your videos you were talking about those really cool pliers. Swag ? They were silver, I tried finding them on SWI. But couldnt find them, i love your channel, subscribed, new to welding / fencing in Prescott Arizona yeeeeeeeeeeehaw Thank you
Well looks real good. I want to see close up how you actually weld it please.even tho the experienced welders will know how,some of us are less experienced .
When I go by the miles of good pipe fence wasted delineating property lines or protecting corn fields from escaping, and think about all the times I really needed a good pipe corral to work cows in but didn't have it because "money" or whatever, it makes me sick. Nice job by the way.

Hey A Ross I saw you screwing the c perkins up this is something to think about dont look up you will get metal shavings in your eyes thanks for all the good videos.
We just set the posts for some working corrals yesterday so we can start welding tomorrow, what rods should I use? Could I get away with running a pass with 1/8 6010 and then running another pass over top of it with the same rod?
Austin, the fence looks great. Some would look at that and say it's just a fence. They dont get how much work goes into it. I have been in welding a long time, I am in the sales side of it now. I have to ask, 8010? For fence pipe. Keep up the good fight. Stay well!!!
I've found that if you have a post a lil off it works to heat it at the very bottom with a torch (on the side that you want it to move) get more then half red hot and then throw a cup of water on it and it will draw plumb most of the time. Sometimes a lil too far
Hell yeah man hopefully we can do a collaboration video soon bro big fan watching u since I was going to welding school now I’m broke out and welding 🤜🏽
I'm curious about some things. Does 8010 weld up like 6010? Fast freeze and with iron powder in the flux? 6010 was always the go to rod for root passes for open root welds. I noticed that you're welding down hand. I guess that would help you lay down a smoother bead and with that big of rod (5/32) that would help you lay down a lot of bead with one pass. As well as everything seems to be fit up (nice work) that very likely helps too. Also you're welding on clean pipe so that's helpful too - keeps contamination down. You also don't have to have the welds inspected like you would on pipeline welding. I also liked to run a number 10 gold lens. The only thing is that the gold could scratch very easily so you had to be really careful when you cleaned the lense so that you wouldn't scratch the gold. Even small scratches could let light in and burn your eyes. Did I hit on anything right or did I just blow it all out my ass?
Well done Austin , joints and fence look great ! Amen at 8:00 , both complement each other and the small joints on the fence pipe help keep a feller in shape as you have to move fast compared to big pipe . Beautiful countryside your working in ! I was born in Stillwater while Dad was attending Oklahoma State back in the day . Would love to get back there one of these day's . Hey I forgot to ask , what kind of disc were you using on the dewalt grinder to polish up with ?
I know you love stick welding but have you ever tried flux core welding on pipe fence. I got a buddy in California to try it. He is now always grabbing his fronious 2200 and a spool of flux core. 30% faster and welds up like 6010. Great videos!!

Nice job, how did you cut the pipes with the cutting torch, or something else. They look clean around the post, and the welds look nice as well. Great job

Maybe for a short time, it won't last with the expansion and contraction in the heat of the sun. What you risk is losing paint if you paint over the slag. Like bark on wood, if it's getting painted it yad best come off first!
