I've been welding for around 40 years and after watching your videos I realize that there is so much I have to learn that I dont know where to begin. I spent most of my time doing underwater welding which I guess is another story. Natural teachers like you willing to share their knowledge with younger people , who are not afraid to work for a living, are a treasure! My welding helmet is off to you!
Nice. this put a smile on my face. We use 7016 DCEN for open root and I like to drag it until the gap starts to close. Then I switch to a J motion. Longarc it a tiny bit on the straight part of the J to heat up the base metal in front of the puddle to keep the keyhole going. After that rod is finished I can up the amps and start dragging again. I'm a two hander like Bob, so messing about with a remote is not for me. Like always the secret is in reading the puddle and the keyhole.
i love you to guys with your technique you always teach as thanks very much Bob and your colleague ,i have learnt some technique in 2g pipe and 4g plate when using both 6010 and 7018 thanks very much.
K.I.S.S. principal works best for the most. I used the "x-mas tree" patern it as well for awhile but it was too easy, when I was beginning to be too slow with the patern and burn that key out. The drag method seems to work better for me now as the pacing of the pull (5 to 10 degree drag) is much easier and I figure that it'll work best for the most. It's nice to see the same result from the two different methods...Respect fellas.
Could you do a video on 309L-16 stick electrode running mainly vertical and overhead? We have areas where it is required to do this at my work and would like to see something on it cause no one has a video and trust me I know it’s a pain. Love the vids man keep em up! Especially the collaborations with Bob!
You better show the appearance of the penetration there. So we can compare your christmas tree pattern and the drag. We're not here to criticize bro. We are also a welder. In this video im half satistied. Im sorry to say. I hope you show us the root because Bob is saying we got to clean inside to see. But you and Bob only see the root and not the viewers.
@@jca66 same here. Quick question I’m learning 6010 whip and pause one instructor told me to pause for 2 seconds than whip and another told me to whip back and forth because that’s how pipe is on the field. I’m not sure if which one is the correct technique do you have an idea ?
@@patriotskingnation8084 the answer is there is no set time to pause. All you can do is practice until you get a feel for the technique. The rod diameter, material, amperage and position all come into play. Practice and eventually you will just get it by instinct. When I practice a new technique, I try as many new things as possible until something feels right.
I’m a whip guy I like to see the key hole and fill it back in and it makes the weld on the inside looks like you back welded it. When I drag it sometimes the arc tends to favor one side of the bevel which makes me nervous about passing x Ray
Eloy Leyva Yeah, I hate it when the arc tends to favor one side. At that point I start to stitch to correct it. But if it it's going in, I leave it alone.
I point the rod down a bit not directly to the center of the pipe. It puts the heat down and seems to prevent it from favoring one side. Also, you can see a keyhole open up under the rod. It feels weird but when done right the keyhole stays small and fills in good. I always pass x ray BTW.
If your arc favors one side, point towards the other side. Wiggle or twist your rod to get the Flux off that's not being consumed. Old and dry bead rod can be a bitch and "finger nail" on ya. Especially if there is bad high-low on your fit
@@bobnewhart369 you can’t really see it until you finish the weld. A whip movement let’s you see and it penetrates good especially uphill. But downhill and flat drag is the way to go
It's good to learn both techniques but my preference and the way I was taught was Bob's technique, but in reality the name of the game in the field is production, production, production,so the faster way is the better way if you take your time they notice how long you take but definitely both ways are good to learn
For speed it should be downhill. The only thing about dragging uphill is you can’t see if both are hitting the walls until you finish the weld unlike a whip and pause you can see it when you lift the rod
Follow these guys lead u cant6go wrong young whip is ace of diamond Bob ace of hearts nice to see contrasting collaboration pipe runners turned instructors very on point both styles coffee kept my whip tight in the morning .
You can hear the rod penetration with 6010. Both gave x-ray quality penetration one gave you more to grind being safe the other is wire brush and go. Both methods were showed excellent roots with 6010.if you don't hear the rod on the inside very little Sparks comming back you are then burning Thur.
Xmas tree pattern is slower....during to the fact that you are opening the keyhole wide and I return are adding more metal. Drag is quick.....but more likely to leave an edge.
It just as enjoyable the second time around on your channel. You had a pretty big keyhole at one point there...😨 & then you recovered it. Bob is fast and that's something that comes to mind when checking out his arc shots in his videos; He'll strike an arc, move the puddle FAST, and then you'll hear... Don't forget to subscribe to weld.com!
I wish the cameraman would focus on the weld being made and not meandering around the room. Makes it more difficult to see whats going on when you are actually trying to learn this stuff.
I sure would like to see a "contrasting stick" video that includes some old dude - like myself - trying to run a stick bead with shaky hands. Or even trying to scratch an arc with shaky hands without sticking the stick. Yeah maybe you've got some super machine with a DIG, but what about the old machines?
Have you ever tried a arc pig HF I have a 1960s sa200 red face and a weldanpower 225 I would like to have the high freq for the aluminum on the small machine but does it work
First time ever seeing drag technique with 6010 on pipe, an I'm in school now an I want to try it because this 6010 pipe has been kicking my ass! Does having the heat high make the dragging easier, or the dragging angle or both?! Note. IT'S JUST FREAKING 2G
Hey guys, I have a lot of kids asking the difference between ac welding vs dc welding. Can you please make a video explaining the difference of the process? Thanks
So honest question. If both welds are equaly sound, wouldn't the drag method be superior in terms of cost effectiveness? The Christmas tree method used more rod and in the long run that would cost more would it not? This is to say if both weld methods are good
Yo e ido a el canal del joven y solo pone dos tack 12 y 6 clock lo vi que Bob lo presiono mucho y lo desconcentro a demostrar su estilo que es uno muy bueno no me convence penetrar sin movimiento queda muy superficial y fino
The Christmas tree style is good only if you are taking pipe test because you will not alfred of blowing true the root pass if you are doing the hotpass

Bob hate to tell ya mate, but your the old timer most of us reference.
You 2 guys with your contrasting styles is a pleasure to watch.
Love it when y’all are together man

WALKING THE SMAW KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK!!!
Sparkling my eyes to see both of you Sir's..Solid followers here.
I can't stop smilin' to see you both in one screen.. 👍
The OG and the young OG of welding
i love you to guys with your technique you always teach as thanks very much Bob and your colleague ,i have learnt some technique in 2g pipe and 4g plate when using both 6010 and 7018 thanks very much.
I love these collaboration videos!
Man I wish I had a teacher as good as either one of y’all.
Worth my time! Good show and tell!
appreciate both u guys perspective on how you weld a root pass
At the end of the day it was a good day. Love it
I like watching both of them welding together
I fitted for alot of Golden arms but Mr. Hjalmar and my welder Lux are the best in my book.🙏 Power plant life
Yeah truly do love you guys together

Yes! I do this everyday and I want a visual of the root as well as an xray. If it doesn't pass why teach it?

Bob is still waiting on that 5 amps
This is epic 👨🏾🏭
Great job gentlemen.
Trees or arrows are great to have if the opening gets out of hand.. great tools to have.
I was thinking it looked like a windshield wiper...
I can watch these guys all day lol

In welding class and this is such an awesome video! This is a great show. If anyone has any tips or comments please do so, im ready to learn. Thanks

What a nice tutorial brothers.. thanks for sharing this video
Great work guys
I’ve been waiting for this video! Awesome work guys!
Good sir Muhammad tariq pakistan
I like Bob's method better, but that boy from the 3rd coast is slick! Fancy jacket and hood!
For real surprise bob couldn’t one hand especially with dragging
Haha I love how y'all are taking shots at eachother
At 6:20 , he’s scared to death bob is gonna flash his eyes 😆
Great video! You are good together! And I love my BSX welding gear!!!!!!!
Great vid guys, I'm recertified from double extra
2 inch 160 schd

Excelente video explicativo !!!
Que parámetros de aperaje usan ?
Muchas gracias

Body laungue got me dieing lol
Did he ever turn it up 5 amps @ 5:30 😅
David CháveZ muy buenos soldadores desde. MINATITLAN VERACRUZ
You never buffed that bead and got a close up of what you laid down...
Thanks for these videos and they gives me an effort in the my welding practice, from:Mdz.G.
Man! ! !
This is fantastic 😅

What about doing a 6GR pipe?
Thanks it's help a lot

Lol.. 2.3k views on weld.cim..
1.8k on weld.tube.... great video on both!!!
Good question bobs

Im no professional but I put a 1/8" landing with a 3/32" gap and drag the rod and whip if needed at 85 amps
13:51-13:56 ahhhh... that's how ya do it!
Bob reminds me of Hank Hill
reminds me of Eric Clapton.

Yes. 💯
Also... where was that inside shot of the pipe?
Master
What Jacket is Hjalmar using in this video. I’m interested in getting one thanks.
Nice weld
Doing Hjalmors technique you put in a heavier root or not?
Please do a video on 9 chrome root pass.
Tig.
nice brother
What is the tuition cost for learning all welding processes on plate and pipe?
Bob's technique is way better, much less heat input that is crucial on most alloys such as stainless alloys, duplexes..
When I hear brother, decent!
where did u get that welding shirt ??
What welding gloves do they have on anybody know ?
Did the young guy need 4 rods to do 1/2 that pipe?
What's the keyhole???
I weld like Bob, stab and drag
Bob how do you like that esab hood?
Alan Klem Love it!
Well...... Bob is the man. Why would a company hire someone who is three times slower.
Bring hjalmar back he is a great teacher
Yo e ido a el canal del joven y solo pone dos tack 12 y 6 clock lo vi que Bob lo presiono mucho y lo desconcentro a demostrar su estilo que es uno muy bueno no me convence penetrar sin movimiento queda muy superficial y fino
11:40
Starts losing his edge a little bit... (*cut to the other view!*)
Alright he’s got it back (*cuts back to arc view*)
LOL
👍
The Christmas tree style is good only if you are taking pipe test because you will not alfred of blowing true the root pass if you are doing the hotpass
جيد جدا انا معجب بي قناتكم
👍👍
Excelent
👍👍👍👍
No shot of the root?!?
Didn't show the finished inside shot.
Probably didn’t look good enough too
Q amperaje utiliza
80-90amp
8:20 lmaooooo
UP 5!! LOL
no root!?
Bob are you available to visit our campus?
if i have thats welding machine hehehe
maessstrrooooss! como quisiera quemar junto con ustedes... felicitaciones...
Зашибись 👍
