TRY OXY AND HYDROGEN. IVE BEEN BURNING LEAD FOR 46 YEARS!!

Hi mate I do not have Facebook is there an other way of getting prices ect thanks

Is there anyway I can buy one?

I made it. facebook.com/HydrOwelder

What are you using for Gas mate & where did you get the wee torch?

Hi Ken I had an hydrogen welder but just couldn’t master it I use Oxypropane now Could you do a video on setting the hydrogen torch up ?

wow. very impressive. Loved the box chute vid from 12yrs ago. Can this be done for all lead work like chimney flashings etc

The fuel is Oxy/Hydrogen from water, As in H 2 O.

Tell me... How...😢😢 I need this..

H2O welder right? Hydrogen burns extremely hot & difficult to see the flame

I reckon you have such a level of skill at this Ken, you could use a cigarette lighter & still make it look easy. :-)

No idea what fuel you running, Sir - but you have huge skills as a welder - people might miss that aspect.

TBH, I can do the same run using a glorified cigarette lighter - a 20 quid butane micro torch. Where the issues arise is on lap & vertical welds. There, you need crazy-fast heat that only bloomin oxy-gas delivers. Or do you know otherwise?

I do the same - where it falls apart is on lap welds - with this torch, you won't get any heat into the lower layer & the weld will either be crap or look like a dogs backside. Butt welds are a doddle with any semi-decent/total garbage small flame torch. Where it will struggle (I.e fail) is on vertical welds/lap welds as you will have to dwell too long leading to holes. If you say different & can show, then I bow to your superior skillz.

Where can I buy this set it looks great 👍🏻

What!!

Looks almost like a TIG weld. WOW!

What torch is that

Please tell me what is the equipment you are using! Thanks

with kind off grip you use, and wich kind off gas you use sir?

hi ken have recently bought a hydrogen generator welds lead great on the flat having trouble with my incline welds is there any advice you can give me or possibly make a video on setting the torch and generator up would be much appreciated jp

He is splitting water into 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen H2O, (using a sealed jar of water with 2 electrodes and a low voltage) piping it to a blowtorch, This is old school stuff!

Hydrogen gas eh ?

Ken give us a clue.!

Can you show us your welding set up please

Where’s water then jus bloke doing bog standard welding

How does it work Ken?

Hi Ken Could you show me your set up for welding with water very interested cheers adrian

Would love to be shown how to use this method!

Damn shame the video is so out of focus. Can't see any detail!

Have you noticed the job was completed with no hard hat high vis to steel boots goggles and a risk assessment and no body was hurt get a grip British health and safety ;)!!! Nice job bud

sd750.Thanks

The weld is strong if its one third to half again as thick as the lead you are welding. this is a lapped weld used for in situ work and lead with timber substrate. Its not ment to fully penetrate. No filler stick as using the outside edge of the over lap. Dont need gasses, not had a slash back since i started 40 years ago. Dont need mask or extractor, working outdoors (Not in a classroom) Continuous welding can be used for flat, inclined, and upright seams. First of two loads.

can anyone tell me if this method of welding is ok? ive never seen someone do it like that before

This is how NOT to lead burn! It is a very poor weld being produced here. No safety glasses, molten lead often spits back. Lead fumes are very dangerous to the body,there should be extraction or a mask used. Turn it over! Ha Ha.

Many thanks for the info and well wishes! Will give it a go, and hopefully not burn through the lead! cheers and thanks for uploading the video.

@rydingw Its an Oxyturbo kit they do a 90. 110 and 300 set. either will do. there light and easy to use. will burn clean through code 8 or turned down can do a nice calm slow weld. oxygen will give about 15/20m of welding gas is map gas and lasts about 6/7 times longer. bottles, both under £20. Kit is £ 110/150. most roofing yards and welding suppliers. bottles come with the kit.hope this help. good luck.

I have seen lead burning with oxy acetylene, you seem to have some kind of portapack, what gases are you using and where can I get the pack from? cheers, would like to give it a go as I have a parapet gully to mend, also how much welding can you do on one fuel canaster?

Cool!
