Not even in the pipeline game. But really appreciate your videos and your positive outlook on life and work! Keep up the hard work brother.
Watching your videos reminds me of when I was a kid and my dad was on the pipeline in the early 70's. He took alot of 8mm movies on the job.
Man I could sit down all day and listen to the old timer tell his life story
Really enjoy your video's Austin, your working in my backyard.
You should have your own line of welding hats. Love the videos, I can't wait to be able to start testing.
I'm a machinist. I have one of those center finders.
I got it from an old tool and die maker when he retired.
Cool tool.
That was a very good video. Andy seems like a pretty neat feller. I would like to hear about changes he has seen in the welding industry. I bet he has seen his fair share. I think stainless steel coffee cups would be a pretty cool thing to have. I would dang sure buy one! Work hard and be safe.
industrial tradition welding caps, socks, blankets, throw pillows, flags....🤷♂️ I would definitely buy those, I've already got a couple hats and hoodies
Love the video's man from upstate ny that tool was a miracle point use it all the time
Another great video! Nothing like getting ready to head for the house after being away. Spent some years out on the road myself, now I teach welding to high school kids and adults in the evening. Home all the time now.
I worked pipelines for thirty five years as a rig welder. You are the best asset those kids ever had! Good for You Brother! Keep it up!
Ill tell you what Austin and andy seem like great guys I pipelined as a laborer and welders helper and it was 50/50 i met alot of great welders with shitty attitudes and then again i met some really great guys too!!!!!
Love your energy!!!!!!!!
Can't wait for the day with Andy
How about stainlees steel travel mug for our morning coffee?!! Maybe with a leather patch sticker on it!!
the jump suite where you can get in and stay nice and warm
Thanks Austin for taking the time to make this video! Please send some of that warm weather up here to Rhode Island!
you bet, thank you for taking the time to watch.
Great job bud love the channel
Welding Caps and bandanas would be cool with the Industrial traditions logo
Ol Andy..... Has a story for them alllll...
Pour 1 bottle of dawn dish detergent in drain. It will break grease and oil up. Once a month.
Love my patch hat!
Glad you like it! Thank you for ordering!
I worked for Phillips petroleum for 5 years mostly in west Texas, wife and I traveled all over in our camper hated fixing it all the time. Left in crash of 87. Great company they offered me a refinery job but that wasn't for me.
Lol at when u got your green boots on boots out there go fast if your labor hand
flex fit hats for us big headed people
Man that was a cool center finder great video man 👍🏼
Miracle Point is what they're called.
I really like welding with my Everlast welder. It makes me think whether I should try to be a full time pipeline welder.
Shoot yeah that’s good that you like welding with your welder.
I worked for Ford
Ol Andy seems like a good guy
The hood lights on some cars have mercury there call mercury switches and are activated by gravity when u lift the hood gravity pushes the mercury up and makes the connection and turns on the hood light like a relay.
That is so neat to me. I like hearing about things like that. How older tools use to be made and what they're made of.
Have you ever done a review of your weber bbq? interested as I just bought one for the road. Maybe you can do a episode on how ya eat on the road and on the pipeline ? Cheers.
We have not, but we do like it. We've had it for 5 or 6 years now.
Would love to see one of those paychecks
I see you working for CJ Hughes now... Are you around Clarksburg ?
Why this so much more entertaining than most of the garbage on tv that takes millions of $ to produce?
How did you like the new Lacrosse boots? Don’t know if you are aware but they make an Alpha Aggressive line that have safety toes and some are insulated. Thanks for all your videos they are very interesting!
I love them they fit very snug and they are very comfortable.
Austin, have you ever worked for Michels?
What is the model # for those thorogoods?
What song is used in the video? Good jam.
That primer cord burns at 27,000 fps pretty quick.
Looks like Woodrow should have let you take your Taylor on the trip with that duct tape patch you have.
Our boss man grabbed a little week job in a plant, and man I cannot stand working in this place, I need to get back out on the row ASAP
I understand
you ever worked with some guys from don Miller and associates?
Do you have a bumper pull camper? Got to thinking of how you towed the camper with the welder and things in the bed of the truck and thought maybe he has a bumper pull lol
No, I have a fifth wheel. I just put my ball about 12” from the back of my truck.
Did you go to school for welding. If so what school
Some beanies would be cool for us welders
The soonest curved hats and for your brand aross welding curved flex fit hats.
I’m very curious to know your paycheck for some weird reason
Can u make some hats with a black back piece in the back like instead of white. I'm from Texas and it gets sweaty and white hats start to turn yellow. Make some black hats keep the same colors grey, blue, and black
we will keep that in mind and work that option into the store. thank you for the suggestion.
Where at in wv are you workin?
Great video man! I learn a lot watching your videos im 19 and I want to become a pipe liner and I just uploaded a video of my rig truck on UA-cam channel.!!!
I want a welding cap.
Clean out your P trap every sink as a ptrap
Make some welding hats
If ya run across my little brother out there (Nathan Burney) tell him his bro Matt say’s hi
how much do they pay for this in US
Yo I did not know you was a UA-camr lmfao!
What’s the longest you been between job and also your shortest job
the longest I've been off between jobs is 3 months. shortest job I've been on is prob 3 weeks
I owed one pair of throogood and swore I would never buy another pair. The quality was terrible. Had to have my pair replaced/warranted 3 times in 6 months. They get on the "made in USA" part but not good quality.
Dang, I hate to hear that. You'll have that every now and again, unfortunately.
What time do you have to wake up for pipeline
depends on how far away you are staying from the yard. i get up at 5:00am
Whos your tie in man? An thats the job im tryna get on its only 2hrs from my house and i know jeff doyle, ive worked for him a few times
Hey Mr Austin, how does a CWI get into the pipeline inspection???
Im really not sure, I have never done inspection, but I'm sure it's just a matter of meeting the right person to get you hooked up.
Denver Gibson Best ways just to do a google search for pipeline inspection companies in different states. There’s a bunch gulf interstate, QIS, cleveland integrity services, Tulsa inspection resources, Applied consultants then a few in West Virginia I know of Elk Energy Services, Team environmental. And just put in resumes everywhere you can find.
Most of these places should be paying anywhere from 600 to 1,000 a day for the day rate plus overtime pay.
Wytt miller👨🏻🏭🔨⚒⚙️⚙️📐🔧🧰✈️🛫🛩
What kind of welding cap do u use
I use BADASSCAPS right now. I like them.
Ok thanks
I am in welding school now. When i am done i want to finish college and work for OHSA
Nothing but water threw kitchen sink problem solved 👌
So when you get laid off you go to a different company or that company call you back or are you unioun
Any of the the above. Could go work for a dif contractor or it might be the same. Whoever has work next. I am union though. So there’s always the dispatch option.
What is the duct tape on shirt for
i had a hole in my shirt so its just to keep it from catching on fire
My son just finished welding ceros at the local community college. How would he go about getting started - maybe as a welders assistant?
jason mcmillan Welders Helper
ARIAT NATION any advice?
jason mcmillan UM A HELPER WOULD BE THE BEST FIT SO HE CAN HAVE EXPERIENCE ON THE FIELD AND THEN HE CAN START GETTING HIS WELDING MACHINE AND TOOLS 🛠 BOUGHT OR READY
ARIAT NATION how does a dude get started as a helper?
First
What does the " tie in " guy do that's so important that once he leaves, everyone leaves?
The tie in man is the Forman of the crew. In this case he just had another job to go to, if it would have been in the mid of the job they would have just hired another tie in man and we wouldn’t have got laid off. But in this situation they were in the process of finishing up this job so they were already laying crews off every couple of weeks as they finished up where they were. So it just worked out that I got to come home same time he was headed to another job.
Austin and Kayla I currently do shop work tig welding alloys and, pipe, tubing and hot roll in central ohio but I really want to move on up and am buying my gear one thing at a time to become a pipe line welder helper very soon, hopefully late spring or early summer. Any suggestions what states or where to look for welders looking for helpers on the pipeline? I appreciate it.
That sink drain crap you bought was meant to sell and possibly unclog a drain with hair nothing else. But that snake you got would have done it
Do you every metal detecting on your job , lol you might fine a big gold nugget
No, sure haven't. lol that would be nice wouldn't it.
Where did Andy get off too
he went to the house
Did you really buy boiled eggs?? Lol
lol ya i know right. the life of a bachelor. to make it even worse, i have an instant pot that i could make like at least 18 at a time. haha.
Lol I'm sitting here at my cancer treatment.. Thank you so much for that laugh!!! Really needed it today
Very noob question here- when welding, how does anyone know exactly where to dig up the pipe to be worked on? Or do you have a video on it/plan on making a video on it? Because it doesn’t seem like ALL of the pipe gets welded- just a portion of it. Thanks! :)
A survey crew with gps marks out the pipeline and then they dig and blast the trench and they weld 40foot sections of pipe together and excavators and side booms lower it into the trench and welders make tie in welds then the xray crew xrays the welds then laborers wrap it in rock shield and they bury it. It’s mostly new natural gas pipes hes welding on. Thats the quick version of it. Its sounds easy but it is not. Pipeliners are bery skilled i was a pipeline laborer then bumped up to welders helper for 2yrs
Awesome! Thank you! Hope you are enjoying it!
I’m on a tie in crew. By the time we get to a location the main part of the pipeline has been lowered in. The “pipe gang” has already came through and put the majority of the pipe together, like this other fella said, they are most generally 40’ sections to start with, then they have a lowering in crew that lowers the big sections of pipe in, after that we come in on a tie in crew and weld up all the lose ends in the ditch.
Trump better get in office again or us pipelines are gonna be in bad shape🇱🇷
