Very nice! Always wondered about clear cups.

Can you use them on Fronius?

Great video thanks !!

This is very helpful and well made! Thank you. Plus, your welds are incredible! Amazing work

The best in "how to" videos as well as the best tools and welding supplies!

I'm having a hard time with fitting and using my Tig Fingers.

These are great products

How do you clean anodized aluminum to weld it?

Hi Jody, this is one of the very very few videos I have found that explains the process on thin aluminium and the very critical settings ( the only video I’ve seen to show settings for thin stuff) great job, great video! Regards John

Would it be better to use 1/16 tungsten for thin metal or should I just use 3/32 and just keep amps lower?

Great video I need to weld charge pipe for a turbo set up and man I'm going thru it trying to learn it . Thanks for your help can you post more thin material vids like this

I’m trying to tack weld 0.040” and it just keeps peeling back and not fusing before there is a puddle so I can’t get filler in to it. Your racking looks effortless. I’m not doing it with any backing plate because it’s for a shaped panel. Is a backing plate the only option?

Awesome video for us Jon boat owners. Would it be possible for you to demo some 4943 filler rod for us sometime Jody? Thanks again from Canuck land.

Benz-share 9058. Absolutely agree with his message. Thanks and for the metric too

Dang it! I missed the wrist rest deal with the free gloves. 😒

Hello, great Video and detailed explanation of settings or materials 👍 Greetings from Austria 👋

Awesome video Jody.... thx for all you do. with 0.050" aluminum & 43 AMPs, I was very surprised you didn't go with a 1/16" tungsten. Nice work regardless. Would you care to comment on.... Arguably they both work, but when should one legitimately consider switching to a 1/16" tungsten (from a 3/32" one) ?

This guy is sharp ole son!

The way I like to clean aluminum depends on where the weld will be. The surfaces I use a cordless right angle drive drill. I use some 3" diameter quick change pads with a scotchbrite like material in coarse, medium and fine. Which one that I use depends on how dirty or corroded the aluminum is. For the edges, if it is thin material (<0.063"), I will rub the edge surface back and forth on either 120 or 220/240 grit sandpaper. The piece of sand paper is on a flat surface, usually my copper chill block. For thicker pieces (= or > 1/8"), I will use a 3" 120 grit flap disc. I have also used my belt sander with either a 120 grit or 240 grit belt to clean the edge surfaces. And then, of course, wipe down with acetone. I use a similar process for carbon steel, stainless steel, copper and magnesium. The range of thicknesses for me is from 0.025" to 0.250"

One of your best videos yet!

Hey jody love your videos man I was wondering how much amperage to use on silicon bronze I've been having a bit of trouble getting it to flow like you do any help would be much appreciated;)

Thanks for all the great information that you give out on the cups and the uses. I tend to gravitate to a #5 with a gas lens on a #20 torch with a flex-loc torch. I swear by the jazzy myself switching between them without having to change any settings on my primeweld Tig 225x. Makes it very easy for me to do any repairs I have to do. Really trying to get sike up to practice with the ticon titanium practice kit bought several of them 2yrs ago and tried one of them and it's hard sticky if you don't have the gentle touch. Going to be purchasing a BBW from you to try it again I used #12 fupa cup w/40cfh don't think it was enough coverage didn't discourage me will try again. Thank you for all the great information you give us Jodie keep up the great work.😊😊😊😊😊😊

Thanks for sharing, I'm new to TIG, doing a SS header kit, and full SS 3" exhaust system, first mistake was buying cheap cup kits, now using the Furick cups, big difference. Sticker shock on what happened to the cost of Argon? WTH? Argon is going to be close to 1,000.00 for this project......

"It's like trying to weld in a bowl of corn flakes." 😂😂😂😂

First. Thanks Jody!

What material are motorcycle frames usually made of?

I try to get the new guys at work to get a good bead before ya worry about color. Being able to make a good bead is 10 times as important as color.and when i say that i mean that we work in a chicken plant.theres grease,fat ,peratic acid,bleach,and chicken blood on the metal.your precious color dont mean jack.a good bead on the metal is a great start😂

I bought this article a few months ago, the base is not rigid enough I had to reinforce it in welding 2 tubes // on it. In fact it came from the fact the magnet is not strong enough so it does not compensate enough the weight of your arm, so the base is flexing. Not a bad product, pretty useful, but as always with Stronghand their products lack quality 🙄...

As always, much more info here than just the headline topic. Thanks!!

looks like Stronghand has another great product.....cheers from Orlando, Paul

hey Jody, I make mobile bars for big name hotels here in Orlando, one of a kind usually ....square aluminum tubing, all the welds except fillet welds are ground flush, and even those are massaged smooth... .125" tubing is used.. I always bevel the butt joints to a 30 degree included bevel, and no land......makes a world of difference for full penetration.... and to keep everything consistent, and no inclusion of aluminum oxide of sanding/grinding grit, I use a woodworking router with a 15 degree carbide bit ....takes all of 5 seconds to bevel a 1.5 inch edge, and that is with running the part 2 times over the cutter bit... zip-zip, no muss no fuss no lube needed either, clean and very smooth.... ..... your videos are always fantastic, I have been a viewer and customer at WeldMonger since about 2009.....when the only thing you sold were Tig-Fingers.... Best Wishes, Paul in Orlando

Excellent video Jody, it's always a good idea to have the technology and knowledge of welding.050" aluminum but also other kinds of material as well especially really really thin material no matter what the material is but material can get as thin as Aluminum Foil.

great video
