I admire your attitude. Especially in the boiler room. You did a very respectable repair/weld on the 3/4" coupling. No undercut, a pretty cap actually. On the flex that you took out and replaced with a spool...again...your attitude is what got you through it so well. As a pipe weldor myself, (retired), I have done quite a few boiler room jobs. Two new ones, (in hospitals), and ran a 12" exhaust line for emergency generators at a VA Hospital. Did a couple of hospital boiler room shutdowns as well. Worked on the giant ten story papermill Int.Paper (IP) boiler in Augusta Ga. numerous times. One summer, I welded a 12" s/s (10) line up on the top of the high line at the IP. I don't remember how long it was...(1990) iIt was right out in the searing sun. My fitter and I put wet rags around our necks. (often). I'm a stick & tig weldor. I remember your weld underneath a tank. You were stick welding. Could I pass along a tip for you ? If you'd take a new rod and...open your stinger...then put the stinger where you want...close the stinger...let the closed stinger break off the coating. Now the stinger can make contact to the bare rod wire. This will give you better control (the stick rod is much shorter now). You can also bend the rod where the stinger was meant to go...out of the way. Preventing unwanted arcing if there are possible metal objects in the area where the rod would touch as you make the weld. I so enjoy your cool style. About the supposed pressure to be a perfect weldor like you commented...Be your cool self, you are fine...getting more adept every day. All the best, Pete 🙂
I’ve never done pipe fitting but I’ve done some fab work in my experience it looks so fun yet intimidating, I used to build truck beds and I now do stainless steel 18-20 gage water distillers, any tips?
On ally repair you'll get jobs like that, but best option to avoid warping might have been fitting a sleeve from the end and pulled it along to the repair section. Then just weld both ends of the sleeve, that way you're introducing heat the whole way around the pipe. Good work otherwise
