thank you my teacher was supposed to show me how to do vertical mig like 40 minutes ago, i’ve taken it into my own hands and i’m just watching youtube lol
I watched a bunch of videos to get help with my vertical uphill technique. Thank you for sharing the setting you use, as they were really what I needed to help me flatten out the my convex bead i was getting, great video! thanks again!
I love your weave technique and I’m very jealous of how comfortable you are. I got a table, but I want something like that cube arm you have your piece tacked too.
Like the vids you guys at weld tube do. But wish you would do some with some basic welders that the average person will start out with. Like Lincoln stick (Electric-gas) Mig -gas or gasless. Alot of us cant buy a new welder. Plus they make it to easy for setting. Need to pratice real world job settings. But great knowledge thank you for info.
Thank you young excellent video. I have been welding for 20+ year's. Been a while since I ran Mig root. And I do remember when I used to run it it we run it down hill. The jobs in New Jersey and they want an uphill room. You are correct. Excellent video thumbs-up and subscribed thanks again.
Seen your arm band and was like only one place ive ever seen that tattoo than you turned and i saw the EGA i was like yup there it is. Semper fi my brother
Not having a root face (land) or in the field they call it a knife edge, mig on vertical can give good penetration. Me I prefer a 3/16s gap with a dime or nickel land. Reason is cause of the different wire diameters don't want to blow a hug hole in the gap.
I finally passed vertical uphill! Fuck it was literally 2 weeks of shit and then one day I just started laying good uphill beads, I was like what the fuck. Now overhead, fuck I'm more nervous then vertical
Weird up here in Canada we were taught to never use downhand for anything other than pipe lol....how i was taught anyway though been a good decade since i went to school so maybe things have changed?
When you stopped your weld and before restarting the weld, you talked about grinding until blue and a thin edge. There was no camera shot to show the grind. Do you have any videos or information on the grinding technique/procedure you performed? Thanks!
you’ll want to feather it out so it ties into the root evenly. just grind the end of the weld down until it’s paper thin, start at the beginning of the feather, and continue like normal
It all depends on the process you can run mig mcdownhill it just will not penetrate as deep usually however when stick welding if you are running 6010 rod you can route downhill all day long but with 7018 rod if you try to run it down hill it has so much flux on it that is going to run down below where you are welding and you will get slag inclusion every time If you can run 6010 rod up hill but it's too damn slow the shit penetrates so well you might as well just rip it downhill
I'm losing my mind, I've been on vertical uphill fillets multipasses with mig for a week at school. Passed flat and horizontal now it's like my brain stopped working. Very frustrated
yes v ups are trickier in steel the voltage and current are critically matched, amps have a tiny window of what is too hot or too cold stick is easy but I sure am struggling with straight mig, using an inverter unimig 250, maybe need a smaller tapered nozzle as the nozzle that i have can easily trip on the weld. thanks for vid, i spent 30 years welding alu yachts, v ups were easier, hell i hate steel
I really hope y’all get to do my MIG stick welding combo I’ve done my root 19.0 volts and 200 inches a minute and my hot pass 3/32 7018 or 1/8 7018 for my fill and cap
Key information depending on the code down going downhill weldibf maybe not be allowed or have to qualify in order to do a contract/job downhill Welding is faster but creates a weaker weld compared to uphill.
It appears your gun is touching the part you're welding. So your gun must have some ceramic coating over it to prevent it from being welded to your piece, tight? Without that feature, won't it be much more difficult to weld down hill, especially doing it 1 handed as you were showing?
Watched a couple videos with this guy and love all the fine tuning of volts and wire speed but does not specify the very basics of wire size and will not respond to questions about it in comments
Wonderful,I really like it. Both demostrations,and the skills displayed.Am a (SMAW) welder for over ten years.I was looking for wonderful place like this and would love to join the team pretty soon to learn,Tig,MIG and Flux core.Thanks so much for the video.
I like to weld down hill. It is much easier for me and I don't have to change the settings. My boss today told me he doesn't like me welding down hill but I must go up. I think it is purely academic. What is your advice. Is it a bad thing for me weld down hill. This is 10mm thick plate
DO NOT weld a root pass downhill. Way less penetration. And most , if not all inspectors, including me, can tell by looking at it that it was downhill. And I will make u grind it out and do it uphill
@@jacobriggs7483 yeah I have found a way to go uphill and keep,my welding neat. I watched my then boss he just like layed it up. But it doesn't matter now I'm doing my HGV license, going for lorry driving. I will still go down hill on thin metal like box section or thin plate because your still getting penetration you can see on the other side. But I'm getting out of the industry.
@@jacobriggs7483 I'm British I have no idea what 10 gauge is. We use the metric system which is millimeters mm or meters. Like I say I'm getting into the trucking industry. Since I wrote my first message I have worked how to weld up and keep the weld neat. But doesn't matter now the engineering sector is going into recession. There's always a job for a lorry driver. I only welded down because welding up can be messy. But I copied my boss and layed it. Its better than weaving
Anyone know how to set settings for voltage and wire speed on Lincoln Dual 180? Those letter settings are just crap. and all settings run cold on 110v. Thanks. Also great work on this video!🤘🏻👊🏼
It really all depends on the code/welding procedure. There’s all sorts of different welding procedures for all sorts of different tasks, as long as they pass NDT then I don’t see how people can try to claim “this is better than that”

As always, Rosendo gives a solid demonstration with clear explanations! Thank you kind Sir !
thank you my teacher was supposed to show me how to do vertical mig like 40 minutes ago, i’ve taken it into my own hands and i’m just watching youtube lol
Typical welding instructor 😆
Sounds like my teacher 😂. Better off watching youtube💪
Same here
I do the same thing, feel bad for my instructor 20 students one of him
Literally me in class rn watching this video 😂😂
I watched a bunch of videos to get help with my vertical uphill technique. Thank you for sharing the setting you use, as they were really what I needed to help me flatten out the my convex bead i was getting, great video! thanks again!
Just started a welding school today. Excited as hell to learn!
2 months in how’s it going?
Well for me its kinda trickey
I have trouble doing it up hill
yeah up hill can be difficult you doing uphill on stick or Mig
I’ve always wanted to go to welding school but my family is poor I can’t afford it
Most satisfying mig weld sound
Good job and easy to follow welding procedures. Thanks
Very well spoken I enjoyed your video. I learned a lot bye watching your video .
This is Great! Please watch this more than one time!!!! Learning this can make you MONEY!!!!!!
Thanks for bringing and sharing the knowledge .
Cheers

Rosendo the GOAT 🐐
Perfect !!! Got a weld test on the 12th of oct needed this video ‘
how did you do?
Welding uphill for me always leaves tear drop shapes in the middle. Can't wait to test this out.
vertical is the one i kind of struggle at times but was better then yesterday .
BS... You've never welded a day in your life.
Thanks for this video

Every Welders Lit Me Up ⚡🔥
Important point if you get uncomfortable stop dont spoiled the weld 👍

On fire? Holy jesus! 🥴🥴🥴
Great video guys! Pipeline has slowed down a bit so I am also running a squrt gun until after new year. Keep up with the sick videos 👌👊💪
thanks Sleepy Joe
Great teacher! Thanks
This is helpful! I thought it was hard, but I just wasn’t using the right technique
Thank you young excellent video. I have been welding for 20+ year's. Been a while since I ran Mig root. And I do remember when I used to run it it we run it down hill. The jobs in New Jersey and they want an uphill room. You are correct. Excellent video thumbs-up and subscribed thanks again.
Great job
Entertaining and educational. Well done.
Would like to have seen the root looked like on the back of the plate..but good arc, and torch movement shots by the way.
He showed the back lol
Great video thank you I’m going to the welding states competition for Mig uphill this helped so much
Good job sharing
Even at work do you say boom when you stop welding? Just messin with you. Nice welding
thanks guys this is been Kicking my ass in class ,,walking it up hill,, thank u thank u
Did the uphill test and I failed miserably. I wish I’ve seen this video before hand.
Seen your arm band and was like only one place ive ever seen that tattoo than you turned and i saw the EGA i was like yup there it is. Semper fi my brother
Thanks for the vid, I’m gonna try going wider. I’m dual shielding and my downhill welds look good but my uphill welds keep sagging on me.
If your settings are good , then try weave a little faster , or try reducing amps and wire speed
watch ur angle and arc length.
Slow down on your tie ins and speed up through the middle. My company would immediately reject down hill dual tho, prone to inclusion
I'm in Montreal, Canada area and like downhill. Easyer for me. But I try to go wider as you tell. Thank you very much.
Same i can see the pool easier
WeldTube 👏👊👊
I'm in a stick welding class. What is the purpose of not having a root face in the weld? Is it because the penetration force is lower with a mig
Not having a root face (land) or in the field they call it a knife edge, mig on vertical can give good penetration. Me I prefer a 3/16s gap with a dime or nickel land. Reason is cause of the different wire diameters don't want to blow a hug hole in the gap.
BOOM LOVED IT.
my uphill welds keep coming out too thick. my teacher said i was running it too hot so he adjusted my machine and i’m still getting the same results
Just what i needed Thankyou
I finally passed vertical uphill! Fuck it was literally 2 weeks of shit and then one day I just started laying good uphill beads, I was like what the fuck. Now overhead, fuck I'm more nervous then vertical
lol you 3yrs ago me now 😭
Good, but I’m little bit confuse on how you move, are you going back and forward or side to side. 🤔
Side to side (left to right or right to left)
So incredible sir nice work I want to work in your shop I'm from Philippines
What temperature are you using and what setting for the wire?

Weird up here in Canada we were taught to never use downhand for anything other than pipe lol....how i was taught anyway though been a good decade since i went to school so maybe things have changed?
New to welding. When I go uphill or downhill I always get build up
speed up
“Alright, first technique boom!” Puts down hood.. 😄😄
not judging just asking
doesnt downhill root look kinda cold?
Looks a bit cold
Best welding ever.
When you stopped your weld and before restarting the weld, you talked about grinding until blue and a thin edge. There was no camera shot to show the grind. Do you have any videos or information on the grinding technique/procedure you performed? Thanks!
you’ll want to feather it out so it ties into the root evenly. just grind the end of the weld down until it’s paper thin, start at the beginning of the feather, and continue like normal
Just feather it out so when you start again it’ll burn right through
Most CWIs will fail you for doing a downhill root without even cutting the plate
Yup. I would automatically
Especially on structural
Not if it's allowed in the WPS though. But generally, yes, it won't be used in structural
Boss show us filling ang capping texhnique using mig weld. Thanks boss.
miss the aca. tbh. it was a badass pratice spot.
Kool nice weld
Question.. I'm new at welding why was I told to never weld downhill? I would appreciate if you can answer my question.
Lack of penetration
Also u would not run downhill on root like this guy did automatic fail
The only time I'm going to weld downhill is if I have an open corner joint and I have a weld on the inside
It all depends on the process you can run mig mcdownhill it just will not penetrate as deep usually however when stick welding if you are running 6010 rod you can route downhill all day long but with 7018 rod if you try to run it down hill it has so much flux on it that is going to run down below where you are welding and you will get slag inclusion every time If you can run 6010 rod up hill but it's too damn slow the shit penetrates so well you might as well just rip it downhill

That happened the same thing to me, last week was like every weld that I do was ugly even if I try my best
What exactly is the problem with your vertical welds?
Usually the key lies in your heat.
@@Amp661 I got it now, one day it just clicked and everything was running good. All my settings were perfect, it was all angle for me
yes v ups are trickier in steel the voltage and current are critically matched, amps have a tiny window of what is too hot or too cold
stick is easy but I sure am struggling with straight mig, using an inverter unimig 250, maybe need a smaller tapered nozzle as the nozzle that i have can easily trip on the weld. thanks for vid, i spent 30 years welding alu yachts, v ups were easier, hell i hate steel
Why that voltage? Why that wire speed?
Nice bro🤝🏻
Unfortunately in the north, we gotta do uphill and it’s so much harder
Hello sir what is the preparation for your plate or for the specimen like gap landing and bevel
Did I hear it correctly… the difference between uphill and downhill is dependent on where you live????? Whoa
That shit crazy
It’s like the racist about welding two wtf
I really hope y’all get to do my MIG stick welding combo I’ve done my root 19.0 volts and 200 inches a minute and my hot pass 3/32 7018 or 1/8 7018 for my fill and cap
Why not mig all the way out? Welding student here so I’m curious about it
fluffy erick this procedure works

What size wire were you using?
I’ve only ever used 0.35 wire for this in school and on job tests
Great video! On thin metals I've found going uphill leads to less blow through - is this just me or is there any science behind that?
Just you, I personally go downhill and have never had it blowout beyond my years learning to weld
What helmet is that the Pirachu leather is 🔥
What size wire are you using??
Please make video 1g 2g 3g 4g stick and fillet welding
What wire ? S6 ? Great Video 😃😃😃 Thanks
How do the inverter mig welders compare to the older transformer machines?
Hi, Great video. Have you guys ever tried doing a 7018 open root vertical uphill?
Yah i fuckin hated it lmao so ruff on my arms
yes
@@macfpv03 hahhaa, thats what we do here in europe.
@@highlightscomps6779 imma have to pass 😂 my job i got right now is mainly productiin tig and mig so happy im not stick welding atm
Are your beads x-rayed?
Appreciate the video.
are gravy and puddle the same meaning??

Mig shrouds are normally insulated
True. It won't hurt anything. But it will clog up your nozzle faster
i never see aplications for the solid wire mig in this kind of plates
Uphill seems much better, penetrative wise.
Watched a couple videos with this guy and love all the fine tuning of volts and wire speed but does not specify the very basics of wire size and will not respond to questions about it in comments
What is your argon set at
Great video, brother tell me about your hood
My old boss told me that downhill has way less penetration
it does have less
It's against some codes for certain applications. I may be a faster technique compared to up hill, but a weaker weld.
Where can I find the welding hood
What factors determine wire speed, and voltage?
Metal thickness, welding position, and pass type (root, fill, cover)
Wonderful,I really like it.
Both demostrations,and the skills displayed.Am a (SMAW) welder for over ten years.I was looking for wonderful place like this and would love to join the team pretty soon to learn,Tig,MIG and Flux core.Thanks so much for the video.

I have that exact same belt buckle lol
what about plate thickness
A miller big 40 diesel will it weld 6010 and 8010 on the pipeline, and can it fit on an 🚚 🛌?
What is the wire dia

Search on UA-cam “mig settings welding tips and tricks”.
>< on a scrap piece of similar material before you touch your project.
Should be some knobs on the front of the machine to make those adjustments
How your welding mask
So do you guys recommend going downhill on pipe?
Both uphill and downhill are acceptable, check with your QC.
