David and Golia. Possibly the smallest gas welding torch Vs Code 8 Lead. It may be smaller than my lighter but the focused flame is powerful and can easily weld code 8 Lead

First weld with the new torch, all Brass with a Lilac wood handle. Can't find many good single stem torches so I made one

Different welds using water as a fuel. No compressed oxygen no compressed gas of any kind. completely portable. Much cleaner weld. Can even weld upside down
Lead Welding using water

First in a set of videos on welding code 5 lead using water as a fuel. No compressed oxygen, no compressed gas. Cleaner, stronger weld that costs penny's

170mm wide chute to get around a 18inch wide steel. And expansion joint for 1m wide box gutter. hottest day of year 2010
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?
facebook.com/HydrOwelder Message me
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
facebook.com/HydrOwelder
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?
Well James, That sounds like a challenge. The flame is one of the hottest, Oxy/Hydrogen burns at 3080c / 5600f and unlike blooming gas the flame's heat is focused. So focused you can weld lead upsidedown. facebook.com/HydrOwelder/videos/964311014555625 and the flame has no harmful fumes. Thats Zero/Zilch.
@@HydrOwelder5 Blimey. Thanks for that. :-) Messaged the chap, will get one of his machines & give it a trot around the paddocks.
@@jamesward5721 Hi James. The Chap would be me. Thought of it 3 years ago, got the patent. and it's taken that time to get to this. they are selling well.
@@HydrOwelder5 I kinda guessed that. :-) You wanna sell me one? I'm game if you are.
@@jamesward5721 Okay
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 👍🏻
From me. I thought oh it, developed it, and put it togeather
@@HydrOwelder5 it looks like you have so much control over weld do you sell the kit
@@danielmorgan197six yes as a full starter kit
Do you have an email adress or an online shop or something I can go to for more info 👍
@@HydrOwelder5 ??
What!!
facebook.com/HydrOwelder It's Ready for people to see now
Looks almost like a TIG weld. WOW!
the weld is very similar but the process is unique
What torch is that
It's a single tube
Please tell me what is the equipment you are using! Thanks
Water electrolysis torch
@@jonslab9635 facebook.com/HydrOwelder
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
Awesome Anyone who thinks this is a bog standard setup needs there head testing 😁 Principal fir this system has been around for a while 😉 Any plans to put the kit into production.?
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!
and poor resolution.
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!
