Yes yes I know it’s August... this was filmed in January in the middle of the winter. I was saving it but decided we needed to post something so you guys knew we didn’t disappear. We still are filming and building videos but also working on new things to try and help everyone out. Be blessed.
Yeah really enjoy your videos an what i really want to see is them stainless steel pipe tig welding videos. I ant never done it before but really want to give it a try out.
Jacob Please mention the “Field Data” app that you can download for free. It’s put out by WeldBend. For the different types of fittings across all of the pipe schedules, nothing compares. It’s super easy to navigate the app. Download it and try it for yourself.
More of this kind of fabrication and pipe fitting content please. I’m in welding school and they teach welding. Just that. I’m having to pick up this knowledge, which seems just as important if not more so, from guys like you. You’re putting invaluable information out there, it is greatly needed and appreciated. Thank you.
Good information Jake! I’m actually working on some projects like that myself starting with socket weld , it’s always a good refresher take care brother
Excellent video Jacob !!!! I think you are on to something relaying this information. Long overdue on UA-cam. Every welder should know this if you want to survive.
Hope to see more pipe fitting measurements being taken in the field. We do piping so I get the basics but I’m not as good as I want to be with pulling the measurements. In a lot of situations I can’t use a plumb bob or laser due to obstacles in the way. Would really like to see how people do it that do it everyday.
One thing to keep in mind, when you get into 600ansi and greater flanges sometimes the book doesn’t add in the extra raised face in the dimensions. And there is an extra note on the bottom of the page to add it in. Listing all your dimensions on your math page is also very helpful to double check your work, or find where your mistake is if something doesn’t fit
I am planning to enter the welding industry but would this two books still be something to have in your experience if I am planning to enter into fencing, fabricating pipe doors, sheds, barns, pipe fences, etc.
ANY reference material you can lay your hands on is worth it. As you grow in your career you'll use 'em less and less, but starting out they're like Bibles, literally. I'd also recommend Lincolns Procedure handbook of Arc Welding, and that handbook put out by Alabamas pipe weldors acadamy. Remember, everything's related.
@@tommyt2854 I really appreciate your advice really means alot and I will look them books online and get them ordered and start doing some studying and keep burning rod. Thank you.
@@santiagoalanis7589 your welcome. you'll do good. Stay humble and keep an open mind. Order that Lincoln book right from the Lincoln Foundation, nobody sells it cheaper. The third book I mentioned is sold by Scottsman Tools now, not the school itself.
@@tommyt2854 Thank you really appreciate it you taking your time to helping me out and I will get them books ordered and get to learning new stuff and keep practicing to get better
Let me show you quick way to figure the "take up"of a 45 degree fitting w/o looking in the book.Works on all sizes.Say its a 6 inch 45 elbow .take your soapstone or pencil and write down 6 .Now half it and write 3 under the six.Now 1/2 that and write 1/12 under the 3.Now take 1/2 of 1 1/2 and write 3/4 under the 1 1/2.Now you have four numbers in a vertical row.Add together the 2nd and 4th numbers and this will give you your take up.In this case [6inch] it will be 3 plus 3/4.or[ 3 and 3/4 inches].Works on all sizes.Now lets do a 4 inch.4,2,1and 1/2.Add second and fourth.2 1/2 inches.SIMPLE .KISS.[keep it simple stupid]. Now for 90 degree elbows they are always 1 1/2 times the diameter of the pipe [unless it is short radius which is rare as a blind pig finding an acorn].6 inch therefore is 9 inch take up.4 inch is 6 inch take up.3 inch is 4 1/2 inches take up.As for flanges you can generally just put a tape measure on them or look in the book.Valves ? look in the book.or measure between two squares.Subtract 1/8 on each run for each buttweld gap.

How to square a flange in position. Run(East to west), left 90, 90 up, 90 back inline (East to west)
Practicing on a notebook right now and I get this UA-cam notification

You explain that well , love all the content you put out
Good information Jake! I’m actually working on some projects like that myself starting with socket weld , it’s always a good refresher take care brother
I think you explained it better than anyone else on UA-cam 👍
I was going to watch the video but the fire hasn't been started.
Joking aside,I am not a pipefitter but I just bought one.
Excellent video Jacob !!!! I think you are on to something relaying this information. Long overdue on UA-cam. Every welder should know this if you want to survive.
Jacob i was kidding any video you put out is worth watching no matter the time of the year.
LOL 😂 no I’m not upset at all... just figured I probably should explain what’s going on.
Awesome thank you for dropping knowledge on us and not being stengy with it.
Excelente video 👌 saludos desde Veracruz mexico
Love the explanation, brother!
No problem brother, glad I could help.
Good instructions
Awesome brother can’t wait for some info be safe out there
This is so helpful and I started my first day of welding school
thanks for sharing with us!! lotsa great knowledge sharing in this video!!! be safe
Man it is very very good explaining brother.
Good job.
Good explain, thank you
No problem, happy to help.
Thank you so much sir you help me out here

Learning something everyday. Thank you
nice job JS
Thank god for Jacob!
Great job
Thanks a lot for this video
Bro thank you so much for this... Can you do a video of equal spread off sets

Side note. Dryer lint inside a toilet paper tube works pretty good as well!
That also works well to blow smoke into if u smoke weed
Where can I get the black book?
What kind of coat was that in the beginning, it was freaking cool😂
We messed up Bad😂
Do you not need to add to the take off to account for shrinkage? So assume each weld is going to shrink by 1/16” so you add 1/8?
Where did you get those pipe welding books a Blue Book

This is good!
What happened to the flange , and the pipe coming off the bull nose?
What is the difference in skill set between a pipe line welder and a pipe fitter?. I'm looking at joining local 449 steamfitters union in Pittsburgh.
Pipeline just welds.
Pipe fitter fits any from pipeline to plants to commercial
The spine on the glue?? Or the glue on the spine
You can also find the takeoff by multiplying 1 1/2 time the Diameter of the fitting ( 4x 1.5= 6.0) this only works for 90’s
For long radius 90s only not short or pipeline 90s
I need a book like this how I can get one please
HVAC cousin
Dood it is the dog days of summer August and you are starting a fire you might be a little behind have a great day be safe.
This was filmed in January. I was saving it but decided to release it tonight 😂
Get you a set of chicko cards they are laminated I have had mine for over 10 years
