I’m showing y’all my skid in more detail, and future plans on how to make a thud rig more functional.
Rig welder introduction
Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
Introducing myself to y’all and showing my parted out rig. It will be back together in a few weeks.
lit a little bastard up trying to steal my leads in port lavaca in 2012. warned him twice. you're right, if they're determined they're fearless
Trash
Dand son, you look like me........
I call them lead reel covers crackhead wraps but yea they still don’t work just deter them, never underestimate the power of a crackhead.
I love the fact you reused an old bed. That’s more like what’s in my budget at the moment. Times are rough right now for a self employed welder. I’m using a suburban and a trailer rig. Can’t wait to get me an old farm truck.
Very cool. I could burn rods all day like that!
New sub here bud! Great content I’ve always wanted to get out inthe field. I build pipe fence and gates mainly.
You have to start some where. As long as you keep progressing over the years that’s all that matters.
You're doing great and I like that you are working with what you have. To many want to start at the top with a 100K rig. They all make the same money regardless. Like you, I prefer the rig that is marked "paid", that way I just need to do the hustle and not worry about all the payment. Keep burnin' them brother.
Yes sir I like to spend my money on way I want not just on work stuff. I’m actually in the off road market now. I’ll be having that content coming out soon hopefully.
Hell yeah man ! You're in my neck of the woods .
That’s what’s up bro! How’s work?
I like your style brother
Thank you sir. Been busy at the house so I have not had a chance to make another video. Hope to get back to it in a few weeks.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Keep em coming 💯 Tham Nice Machine
Yes sir I personally love the classic mp
How many hrs is considered wore out, for a welder generator?
It Depends on which one you get. Like the Miller bobcats are only good for about 4000 to 5000 hours. I’ve seen these diesel ones like the classic 300s have over 10,000 hours on them and still running really good.
Ive seen classic 2's and 3's with over 18,000hrs up here in PA still running. even over 4,000hrs on a 200 isnt unheard of if you took care of it. my 57 split hood has just under 5,000 and its runs like a top, rain or shine, cold or hot.
Here in England we have too much rain to have a welding rig like that. So I have converted an old cattle trailer as my mobile workshop! It's far from ideal but it work! Keep posting videos and your channel will grow and maybe someday you can get monetized to help your income? Top regards, Jon!
So what do they guys do that run pipeline?
@@texasweldingdreams636 The pipeline welders here operate out of vans where possible. I only work on farms doing repairs mainly. I have a small 200amp Honda pull start welder generator in my Ford Ranger if l need fully mobile power and for welding. Because England/UK is small we don't have a pipeline industry like you have in North America.
I miss welding on tugboats. I was in a shipyard out in Channelview, tx last year and it was all nothing but gravy work welding and repairing those tugboats
Yes sir we r waiting on them to sandblast the barge the we will finish it. Next will be replacing the bottom of that big tugboat.
@@texasweldingdreams636 that’s going to be fun. The last boat I repaired my fitter had to cut a 10x20 plate for the bottom that was rotted out. Had to weld from the inside and gouge the bottom to throw the bead in
It’s nice to just burn rod all day. Lots of practice.
Hats Off my friend, all businesses start at the house.
Love the turbo on the front of the truck
Thanks man that my little convention starter
New sub brother. I’m just a shop welder but I am passionate about welding!!!
That’s where I started bro and slowly made my way up. I’m no where close to where I want to be. We will all get there one day if we keep striving!
For sure. Spent 17!years almost in a structural shop then switched jobs to learn more. I’ve learned so much. Rig welder have to know a lot. Can’t just go out and weld and that’s it. Gotta have a lot of knowledge. Be able to weld all sorts of stuff in tough place as well as the nightmare jobs nobody else wants to do.
Yes sir companies expect a heck of a lot more out of a rig welder. I personally love the challenge and higher expectation.
Good to be busy👍
When you were talking miller I was all pfffffft, then you redeemed yourself talking about your Lincoln.
I’ve used them all. They all have things I like better the others but when it comes down to it I like the reliability and cost effectiveness for a Lincoln rheostat Welder.
it's looking nice
South Florida Ironwork SoFlo Ironwork thank you sir. I have yet to do anymore to it unfortunately. I have been bowed up with the house.
Whatever works for you youngster as you’re starting out, you will upgrade.
Steve Dobbs yes sir already started to. Check out the newest video
Bet your neibohors love all that grinding and welding.
David Spennachio You know I’ve never had anyone complain yet so I must not bother him too bad. I would hope that they would come and talk to me though if it did bother them instead of just calling the police.
I’m trying not to. I did some more this last week and am doing more this week.
Brah, get a scaffold set up and and a seat to make them long horizontal welds.
David Spennachio it’s just above our heads. It was not to bad we just walked it. The top one we Kneeled down on top and did them
Great videos
leo ybarra thanks man!
What would you say the best advantage of your classic sae 300 is? I also have a 2019 Lincoln but mine is a sae 300 mp. Idk maybe it’s me but I don’t see the special thing about it. It doesn’t even have a polarity switch sometimes it makes me wish I would’ve gone with a pipe pro. Lol
Gio Giovanni I have just liked the way they welded when I used them when I was a single hand welder. I prefer the gears over the Continuous current of the SAE 300. And it’s nice to have the option to hook up a suitcase welder directly to the machine. It would be nice to have a polarity switch like the pipe pro but it doesn’t really bother me not having it it would just be more convenient. How does that continuous current on the SAE 300 work? I’ve never messed with one before?
Texas welding Dreams well for me it’s been pretty good. It’s nice to be able to fine tune that puddle. Honestly I’m still learning this machine like many other things. But that has always been one of my biggest questions is to what the big differences were... I’ve even been told “ nice red face” and I’m just like.. ehhh I’m not really sure it’s a red face since it’s not a 200 but Idk lol.
What about your bottles ??? 🧐🧐🧐
Did not need them for the skid. I’m a refinery welder. So the keep all that stuff there for us. I’m working on a new video tomorrow though. Gat a whole new set up.
Yeeyee
What type of 🚚 are you putting that skid on?
Herbert Herbo Moore I drive a 2000 F 350 2wd
@@texasweldingdreams636 6" or 8"?
You'll looking for hands
Nicholas Lewis no sir not at the moment.
Whoever your helper is, you need to teach him how to stick weld 😂
Nice!
Spartan 329 thank you sir!
@@texasweldingdreams636 Where would you buy that Miller elite?
Spartan 329 I personally like air gas welding supply store. But you can get them a little cheaper on Amazon. Amazon has all the design options miller offers.
Awesome!!! Thanks
Can do a video on securing welding leads on tub rig .Someone stole my for the second time
morris hines I’ve got that video coming tonight. It’s a more detailed video on my skid.
Sweet! Cool to see all of that.
Payden McVey more to come. Note sure if I’ll do one every day or every other day yet.
Amazing job ,thank you
Very informative.
This is awesome 🤙🏻
Nice
Sarah Hardy thank you!
