I love this trade because the amount of effort you put in this field, you will get the results 99.9% of the time. He did a super clean job and at the end still payed respects to the prior welder .
My dad was a skilled trades steel worker. He welded things that a lot people said couldn’t be welded. His favorite was stick welding of which he taught me. I’m not licensed but I can weld against most. My dad also done exray welding. I’ve learned alot when he was alive. Just curious if your son is going into the welding trade. Like to see him working with you. Love your channel and watching your explaining and problem solving. Keep up the good as always. 👍❤️
Never underestimate how hard it can be to prevent distortion. A few years back I was welding a 2" receiver bar to a winch mounting plate. I preheated. I scattered a dozen tack welds. I spread around the welds to control the heat. 3 passes later and the 3/8" thick plate was so warped I almost scrapped the work.
If the surface is ok to weld on the back side, add two plates vertical opposite of where you are welding as strong backs, it'll look like a C. First shop i was in we had to do this for welding 1 inch plates onto the end plates and without them they pulled about 1 inch out of flat. We were welding structural beams, basically welded I beams with clips for bolting on Z channel that you could screw metal siding onto
I have a friend who is a professional welder for a big oil company. Has been at it for a long time. He helps with some fabrication and welding on my old motorcycle restorations. Someone asked me how good he was...My reply was he could weld butter to ice. You sir are right there. My guess is there is nothing you can't weld! Thank you for these videos.
Great work! On a different note, I would be interested to see one day you (or your son) do a built up weld, then take it to the band saw to see a cross section.
1965 my voag instructor during summer school, they took a 6” square plate 3/8 I think, using 6011 rod ran beads back & forth until it was covered. Then sawed into 1” strips & stretched until they broke, I don’t remember the results.
This is when you wished you had a horizontal rotisserie. I made one out of an old 12" four jaw lathe chuck welded on a wheel hub and spindle. Sometime it needs counter wieghts to balance the part.
Fantastic! Well done ISAAC! Dress right Dress. Blending of the welds were perfect, zero undercut👍. Your gouging skills are almost robotic. Smooth and steady! In awe each time I watch you! PROPER! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love watching this guy weld. Such intuitive understanding of the material and its reaction to the heat and fillers used. Seldom do you see a welder thar truly recognizes these factors and incorporates and compensates for them in the process. Not a welder by trade but was a machinist and fabricator in my past. I stick, mig, tig, and oxy weld but nearly feel dumb when watching this guy do stuff.
Lincoln Ultra-Core 71A-85 using 75/25. Fantastic elongation and impact properties. Tests better than 7018, if the data is to be believed. If it’s ever let me down, the customer didn’t tell me about it.
Great job! When i compare you to Kurtis from CEE, i see different ways to fix broken or worn out pieces. Your work is like fixing it in the field and make it last as long as possible. You make it happen. Kurtis on the other hand is the perfectionist, as he is always working in the shop. I love both chanels and i wouldn't dare to make a ranking, who welds best. Always a pleasure to see your skills.
Nice work, always enjoy watching you lay a bead down. I too prefer stick welding when working with heavy materials. Not a professional, but love to weld. Hat off you sir for sharing your work with us. Thank You.
I love that excalibur rod, i recently stocked my service truck with that, i only weld occasionally but between excalibur and goliath rods and an old bobcat 250 I can do pretty decent without much experience
One day I'm going to try gouging..... and on that day.........I will expect to see your typical results.... but I will probably just get burned and swear a lot then take the grinder out 😂... luckily I can always watch you! Thanks for sharing as always!
Hello Isaac, Good to see you fixing the broken. I watch you and "On Fire Welding" and marvel at how easily you run out of position welds as easily as "flat". You guys are just damn good!!!!!!
You are great. Would love to watch you work in person sometime. You and Curtis from CEE are the the two I enjoy watching and learning from. I am and internet cloud engineer that likes to get my hands dirty working on things outdoots.
I used to build tugboats and barges, used a lit of lincoln ultracore wire. Mostly.045 and .052. Had great production and weld appearance. Mostly ran a ln25 suitcase with 55lb spool power unit was lincoln cv655. When I gouged I used the dc600.
No matter how clean and beautiful you make the welds. they will still end up snapping it somewhere above the weld you made or breaking the base part somehow. But still you are the metal magician 🤠 (good to see you back )
I just wish I could lay it in there like that, I never get it looking good until the end, oh well, I am old. I'm gonna blame it on the machine LOL thanks for the lessons, nice work.
I spent 1 summer and 2 winters welding in the Huston area. I feel the pain of 100 plus degrees! One reason to run 7018. There's no gas to worry about. So you can keep the fans going.
Ultracore 71A85 is what I like. It’s a Lincoln wire I run mostly 1/16 with C25. It would work here but I think I’d use 7018 too or 8018 but nothing above that. Great work.
Well as always a great video . Some very nice lines nice an smooth . It's a process that's always amazed me as we saw on one of the passes it looked like a huge blob on the end of the pass but it was a puddle of slag that just pulled away and left a very sweet line underneath. A simple repair but very time consuming welding it back together as always a great explanation as you ho . Thanks
I had a couple of spots that worried me. 😳😳😄. Also, I need to make a brake or stop on my lazy susan. I'm not as good welding single handed anymore. It was a bit of a challenge to hold the table from moving and welding at the same time. Oh well,.. it worked. hehe.
@@ICWeld it wasn't untill a little later in the video that I noticed the box beside it and thought I wonder what's that for then you leant on it and it became clear and yeah great idea nothing worse than it spinning when it's not meant to . Thanks for a great video I really do enjoy watching and learning from you .
Thats a lot of passes! I would be more worried about pulling the part out of square than the exact position of the beads. Props to you for fixing it and props yo the consistency of the person previously. Both doing way better than i could.
I started watching ( on fire welding ) and and it looks like that's all he uses is dual shield and it looks like it does a good job he tells you what wire he uses and how much gas hope that will help
Isaac, All the name brand Dual shield wires are excellent. For most of the work that I do I like Esab 710X, Lincoln UltraCore 71A75 Dual or Hobart 525 or Exelarc-71. Tri-Mark is a good wire as well. I use Co2 for gas and the above wires all work excellent on either Co2 or standard 75-25 mix. My supplier seems to be in bed with Lincoln although they have 710X in their warehouse which is my favorite. Diameter wise .045"(by far the most popular) and 1/16" seem to be the common sizes stocked here where I live But I really like .052" diameter. It has great deposition rate and is a good all-around wire for machinery repair and fabrication. Knurled drive rolls are a must too. Same ones you would use for innershield wires. And of course nice repair as usual. Cheers
@@ICWeld If I may, I would recommend watching Greg, over at On Fire Welding. He's a mobile welder in California, mostly on heavy equipment. He does a lot of his welding with dual shield. Very fast! I've learned a lot from him. He seems like a cool cat!
We it se 810x esab1/16 man you can lie some beautiful welds we also run 710x esab and Lincoln 045 ultracore and CO2 gas been weld with it for 30 years great wire love your video keep up the good work!
Not a huge fan of dual shield personally. It always seems to give me grief regardless of machine. Those Excalibur rods have become one of my favorite rods to burn! They always seem to fill in beautifully.
Lincoln Outer shield 71M or Esab 10x is probably my 5:53 favorite dual shield select arc make some nice stuff too but you can’t go wrong with excalibur 7018
My first job I ever had was a mechanic welder for a drilling out fit was the largest in the mid Atlantic I remember long days welding up Kelly bars guys snapped and welding pipes together and welding bands on them cutting twister slots ect
Good to see a new video. Getting my guts up to try a small project. If what I'm seeing is correct the stick goes in either rolling "W"s or a smile face.
Fantastic repair! This has to be my favorite kind of video; gouging and burning 7018's.... I've never used dual shield either, but would be very interested in strength comparison tests between the two. Thanks for another great video!
I can't even grind as smooth as you arc gouge.
Same here!
😅
Nether can I lol , this guy is awesome.
Ha! A grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain’t.
This guy is a living legend, I’m retired and have never seen such expertise. We should be rewriting the text books using his knowledge.
The rod flick after the weld😎
every time! 😁 Good catch👍
UA-cam's closed captions are fun: Arc Gouging = "Music" Needle Scaler = "Foreign" and my favorite was the slag peel = "I'm kind of pretty" :)
😄😄😄
I love this trade because the amount of effort you put in this field, you will get the results 99.9% of the time.

Old school stick welding is the best and most cost effective. Plus if you love welding you get more time making sparks. Isaac you are the best.
Always had good service from 7018LH Rod, great job as always, thanx for sharing.😃
I love the 7018 also. But I prefer the rh right hand compared to the lh left hand.😂😂😂. Ha ha ha

The users catching a crack in time to get it fixed economically, nice. It's amazing what you can find with a bright light and a 10x magnifiier.

Issac your arc gouging is better than most people lathe cutting. 😊😊😊

Good job. It's nice to se "A" welder and not a "youtubewannabe" welder in action. Keep the videos comming. 👍
Thanks, I appreciate that man.👍

welding dad! thanks for the lessons!
Super nice example to watch you make that special welding repair. Thanks for sharing, I so enjoy your videos.

Guess I am old school but I trust myself with the stick in these situations. Thank you for the presentation..
As for your gouging process Isaac, top notch and nice texture if you ask me . :) And for the rest ? Great .
Hello Isaac, Good to see you fixing the broken. I watch you and "On Fire Welding" and marvel at how easily you run out of position welds as easily as "flat". You guys are just damn good!!!!!!
Always impressed by your videos.
Thanks for sharing
That was some heavy welding. You put a spire on top of that thing and you'll have an Empire State Building--in miniature, of course.
love the way the flux peels up when everything is right , settings and ....
You are great. Would love to watch you work in person sometime. You and Curtis from CEE are the the two I enjoy watching and learning from. I am and internet cloud engineer that likes to get my hands dirty working on things outdoots.
I’m constantly impressed with the skill you have with your torch and arc gouges I inspire to be that smooth some day I do ok but not like that
I used to build tugboats and barges, used a lit of lincoln ultracore wire. Mostly.045 and .052. Had great production and weld appearance. Mostly ran a ln25 suitcase with 55lb spool power unit was lincoln cv655. When I gouged I used the dc600.
We used straight co2
Great to see you again Isaac.
Nice Job!
Burnin some good Ol 7018, feels. Good gouging, good rod, excellent welds. Also nice turntable. As for dual shield, dunno. Pricy stuff, runs REAL hot.
Damn fine arc welding.
Awesome work , I always learn from your video's , Thank you .
No matter how clean and beautiful you make the welds. they will still end up snapping it somewhere above the weld you made or breaking the base part somehow.
But still you are the metal magician 🤠 (good to see you back )
I C Weld, the definitive weld. Thanks, IC.
First 👍's up IC WELD thank you for sharing 😊
a smooth rod and nice clean up , , makes a beautiful job
Nice job 👍. Good to see you had some time to video a job!
*I C Weld* Bravo well done, thank-you sir for taking the time to bring us along on your day. GOD Bless.
I just wish I could lay it in there like that, I never get it looking good until the end, oh well, I am old. I'm gonna blame it on the machine LOL thanks for the lessons, nice work.
Thank you for sharing, i learn a lot, always a pleasure watch your video 👍👍👍👍
Great Job Isaac ,thanks
you put down some nice beads with a stick welder.
You moved it from horizontal to horizontal again but I do see why you felt more comfortable that way.
Thanks for the video Issac great job on the adapter ❤❤❤ it 👍. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed.
Always a pleasure to watch you work !! An expert to his trade and a steady hand just like surgeon !! Might fine work !! 👍👍

Can you run pulse (modified spray) with dual-shield? It's a nice hot weld/low spatter/fast wire speed, but you need a high-argon gas (like 90/10).
@@tedsaylor6016 we use CO2 gas for all we weld work great it's more of a globular weld thy spray arc
Alway love watching some stick welding.
Fantastic welding learning all the time thanks for sharing 🦘

Great video Isaac.
Nice work as usual. Keep those videos coming. Been missing my favorite welding techniques lately.
get some dual shield you will love it. I run esab 7100 .045 and 1/16 pure CO2 it just flows in there so nice, and really speeds up the job
Another great job !!!
