- STRUCTURAL WELDING IN THE BIG CITY -- FIXING BAD WELDS
In this video, I’m on a structural welding in Oklahoma City on a commercial construction project. I’m Austin Ross of arosswelding and on this channel, I share my experiences as a rig welder and in my mobile welding business. Come along for a day in the life of a welder and today I’m a structural welder working on some metal framing construction. I actually don’t do a whole lot of structural welding jobs but after some failed attemps of finding a good welder for this steel framing construction we got in touch and I was able to switch it up for the day and do some commercial welding. If you are intersted in metal framing, industrial welding in cities, commercial steel framing, commercial framing, or structural rig welder jobs I think this video is for you. This is actually a new starbucks construction and they are using a mix of steel framing and wood which is becoming more and more common even in residential builds. For more videos on rig welder jobs, metal awning, etc. make sure to subscribe and stick around.

Man my mind is twisted guys. I weld All day and come home and watch another guy welding.. Hmm I need a hobby..
Nah bro welding is in your heart is all :) I'm the same lol.
You should weld on your free time while watching welding videos. 🤣
Means you're looking for ways to improve 👍
Welding is your hobby
Weld stuff and sell it🤣
I wont tell you anything about my welding skills but it has made me a great grinder, that I’ll tell you.
Yes
I used to take a minute when my wheel was done for, but now it's just a blur and then I'm digging away again with a fresh one
lmao
A grinder and paint will make you the welder you ain’t
U should take up metal sculpture
He is the welder version of Destin from smarter everyday.
Welder Everyday
spot on!
Bruh! As a fan of both channels how did I never see this!!
LOL
Destin*
21 years all process welding, 16 year AWS/CWI/ultra sound inspecting.
When I rolled on a job and saw a welder dressed like you, I knew it was gonna be a sweet job.
Your a pro Austin.
I thought quite the opposite!
@@calikalbocalikalbo6082 indeed, I like it when they have do overs, makes the heart warm!
I would get another job mate
Crap welds. I guess you are a crap inspector
I dont know why...but welding is so calming to me...i suck at it but when I'm burning rods there's no other thing I'd rather be doing!!! Thanks austin
@Jesse Lute I love the smell of burning rod, I welded mig for 7 years, be patient and practice practice practice man be patient
I love the smell of 7018 in the morning
Keep at it. When I was learning TIG, I couldn't get it, then one day, BAM, stack of dimes.
It's all about seat time.

@@brianheaton5521 that's how it was for me pulsing mig. one day it just clicked.
I had to reweld 100 gate hinges at a dairy barn with the calves in it. Lol. I cut the old ones off, cleaned them up and rehung. 1 inch flat steel to galvanized 8 inch pipe. It was a mess. The builder was trying to save money. The owner of the building held the builders last payment till I was done.
The cows were a battle. They would munch on anything. They would pull my ground off. They would jerk my stinger out of my hand. They scattered a box of rods in the poo. Oh and let's not forget to poo. It was on everything. The path through the barn was just wide enough for my truck. They licked my whole truck of the salt that was on it. They pulled the lug nut covers off my rims. I figure they ate them. Pulled the snow plow plug off the front of my truck. Took my chipping hammer. It's still there somewhere.
Good show man.
Bru sounds like hell
I work on only diaries. Welding, electrical, plumbing, etc. You get used to it but they can be a pain at times.
Had goats eat the license plate off my trailer. All that was left was a small tab with the screw holes still attached.
@@kevingarza9945 lol. Good times for sure.
@Mark Bartmanski I never found them. Lol.
I appreciate how Aross isn’t cocky. He’s confident. And that’s a good welder.
You’re a better man than me. You could have said truthfully the guys before you were amateurs who do cheap work for cheap results but you stayed professional. Great job you deserve triple the subs!
At my age, oscillation is a natural.... LOL. I learned back in 63 when I joined the Navy. 22 years later, I was certified 3/4 plate, aircraft, and pulling canopy seals on Nuc piping. After that, I did construction work for major companies and projects. Then I decided to hit it in a new field so I started my own company doing stainless. Since I retired back in 2005, my grandson and his friends keep me busy on their crawlers and the armor wrap that goes on the axles. One thing I used to tell all of my underlings, was, you may not get rich welding, but you sure won't go hungry either. Go for it.......and take pride in what you do.
Went to a career school after dropping out of a community college got certified, ended up finding a job at a place that builds industrial sized dust collectors after 2 years of being promised to be put in the welding position and every time it opened up they hired a new guy for it. After bitching alot about it they finally put me in after 2 months kicked me out into the paint department. asked why I was kicked out my boss said it's because I was a horrible welder (he's not any kind of inspector or anything) so after a year of feeling sorry for myself thinking I wasted my time and believing my boss that I was a shit welder (DESPITE BEING CERTIFIED) decided to say eff it and tried for a welding job they called me back THE DAY that I applied and asked me to come in for a weld test came in passed it and the very next morning they asked how soon I can start went into my bosses office and quit on the spot told him ide finish up the week but I'm gone.
Not much to it man it’s easy I just started u can usually judge the work urself
Screw ppl
But why quit just passing a test or certification doesn't mean much you need on job experience..then be independent.
.
@@barbarasteed3966 well no the problem is that I wasn't going to get actual welding experience at the job I was at it was one of those things where I was waiting for my boss to make good on the promise that he would transfer me to the welding department but he never did I went from the assembly department to shipping to paint to woodshop to fab but he never wanted to put me in the weld department so finally I quit when I got a job offer for a welding position
@@augusteast6518 good for you sometime things work out like that be patient and take baby steps until you are confident....
Proud of you young man not just for your skill but as a good man. At 7:40 you could have carved into a mans pride. You handled your words with respect and turned to something positive. We all gotta be more like that. I appreciate you reminding me to keep my old school welder ego on the low down.
I drive past this everyday. Watched this building go up.
Your an awesome guy Austin, I like the videos, nice guy, good information, no Cussing or getting off track, This is a lot of help to a 15 yr looking into being a welder, God bless you
Hey man, i'm here because i'm pushing 40 and i'm basically starting a new career. I'm doing a little bit of welding because i'm in an automotive class and it's required, so i check out videos just to see what advice i can get from anyone. That part at the end, where you talk about just going for it and not letting your doubts hold you back.... Thanks man, that got me good. I needed to hear that and i didn't even know it.
Yes just buy any machine! Thats what i did i love it! Cant wait to go to welding school! After 10+ years in the food service industry im ready to start what ive always wanted to do and never thought I could. UA-camrs like you really helped me get motivated! thanks austin
I'm 34 and I've got roughly 6 months of OJT experience between MIG and Flux Core (more MIG than Flux), however the only schooling/training I've had for welding is High School. I took maybe 3-4 semesters of it and that was only for stick welding (dabbled with brazing/ AcetTorch). I started a new job a month ago at a plow company working with Flux core (first time). Honestly, I'm glad I got the basics with stick welding in high school because compared to that, MIG/Flux becomes so easy to do. Welding, even if it is for a job, can both be fun and challenging. For me, at least.
I've been welding structural for almost a year now after going to college for an AAS in welding. When I first started they just kind of threw three of us newer guys out in the field and I wont lie my welds looked like those other welders welds and failing welds lol. Now I'm running with like a 98% welding pass rate. I really enjoy doing this stuff so I think it's awesome to watch it from a different perspective from a youtuber that I watch.
Aaron, great work sir. When you showed what the other welders had done I was stunned! Thanks for contributing to quality work in the welding business.
It should only take a day and half.......spoken like a true project manager with no hands on experience. Definitely do not miss those types. Nice work and very cool channel you got.
Excertified weld inspector.
Those were some good
looking uphill welds.Well
we know the Starbucks
isn't going to fall down.
Good job Austin.
the building wont but the brand surely will. i mean people buy that crap becauee it is just like fast food. but nothing beats coffee made the slow way. esspecialy with fresh ground up beans.
@@highkicker11 lol the brand won't ever fall if u believe that then your an idiot
You saying that excites me considering I've been practicing my vert up stick for months and I feel like I've gotten pretty good. Gettin slag boners everytime with 3/32 and 1/8 .
@@OMRS1 you’re
Hou think so ? Well decent sure. But good ? You are not hard too please then.
So cool to hear and see u be thankful for ur work man. I admire that bro. I watch ur videos every friday man. Love ur content. Keep up the great work.
I got all my Welding training from Vocational Technical School during my Junior and Seniors years of high school as well. I chose between three. HVAC, Nursing or Welding. I chose Welding. Nursing was in the mix because there were some really good looking girls in the class. I chose Welding, because I would have been a terrible nurse!
Haha facts
What about hvac?
Should chose HVAC and welding and been a pipefitters, could wipe.your ass with $100 bills
Funny because I’m a nurse and a welder lmao
@@jesseh5554 How long does it take to get your HVAC?
Awesome channel man, glad I found it. After the military I tried traditional college and dropped out and went to a trade school. Spent a few years as a commercial diver and got certified in wet welding. Then worked as a welder after my diving days. Needless to say I went back to college but stuck around in trade work. Now I'm in residential/commercial construction on the management side of it going to graduate school but nothing beats the experience I got working from the bottom up. So great advice in the end. You do just gotta go for it.
did good in high school, went another way, 20yrs later I gicked up and welded, 25 yrs on now. love welding
That advice about "just get started" is the single best piece of advice that anyone can give or receive! That on thing is worth the time it takes to watch this video!
Appreciate your positivity! I’m in the middle of my welding school right now, got another 6 months left of it. I’ve got a lot to learn still. I know it’s always different once you get into the actual working field of the trade. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. Glad someone with your experience gives positive vibes versus going the other way with it. Thank you!
You get a job?
Same here
Damn good advice Austin I just got hire
At a welding company I practice and practice and I pass my welding test thanks for u advice and videos 👍🏻🙏🏻
man is it complicated to get a job as a structural welder with little experience?
@@juanvelasquez9114 yea it’s hard
I'm an AWS CWI, and you are the guys we're looking for! Folks that actually know, understand, and execute a proper weld per the print and code. That garbage you are repairing is all too common, and is the reason more and more jurisdictions (driven by insurance requirements) are requiring certified welders and inspections on structural steel work, regardless of the scope of the job. Whether it's just an I beam in a house renovation, or a Starbucks canopy, they need to cover their butts. Those flare bevel joints look outstanding, I wish I saw more like that. Good on you for supporting the Vo-Techs and Welding schools. The more folks we can get started with a proper understanding of welding, the better. Not that there aren't people out there that aren't naturally good. We all know someone that never welded, picked up a stinger, and the rest was history. But for the most part, we get guys in, and you get the " I saw a video on UA-cam", or "My Uncle Clem welded on Tractors for 30 years".... and they have already started to pick up the bad habits. Those habits need to be nipped in the bud. Great video by the way!
I agree for sure. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Great videos Your probably the cleanest and best dressed welder in the field.😁 Thanks for not bashing the welders that aren't as good as you are. Love your show.
Really needed to hear this week’s advice 👊🏻👊🏻 keep doin what you’re doin Austin
I love the guy who walked up and just stuck his tape measure to the side and is like "ya, looks good t o me" to literally nothing.
You spoke the truth at the end there. Repetition and variety is the best way to learn how to be a good welder. Instruction is important, but it can only take you so far.
bro watching this video just made me so excited to start welding schoool. Im going to put my heart into this and stay strong and not get discouraged! thanks man! these videos are awesome
I work in a shop and I’ve been really wanting to get into structural field work this made me feel a lot more confident in my work thanks man!
Fixing someone else’s pooopooo is always the best time. Ever.
Im making a career out of it 🤣
You learn what NOT to do then...
Kinda birthday..
Well you could be an HVAC tech fixing those DYI jobs homeowners do
Morons provide job security lol
Grateful for your thankful attitude and kindness to the welders before you.
I just started welding school in college and I love ever minute of it glad I was able to get in it was a last minute thing
Just found your videos! But watching them has reminded me of great memories! I used to mobile weld on pivot sprinklers for farmers. And build alot of fence! I think I'm going to build another rig and go back to welding. I should have never quit. I just moved to Oklahoma maybe we will run into each other and can burn some rod together!
working on my Tig now on 6G and I have to say its kicking my butt right now. I know that if i keep at it eventually it will become second nature. learning the puddle and the technique is so instilled in my brain right now that i think about it in my sleep haha. Thanks for the advice Austin and ill definitely keep my nose to the grindstone.
Austin reminds me of a young Benny Hill. During his montages I kept expecting to see scantily clad women running around!
I'm a hobby welder; enjoyed watching you work, thanks for the vids! It always amazes me how pro's make things look so easy.
Thanks Austin, you’re doing a great job out there!! 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Always enjoy your videos because I know it will be done right, ain’t none of the “that’s good enough “ stuff for you. Keep up the good work.
Favorite saying “ if I’ve got to go over your welds, your fired”.
Great work man! I’m from Oklahoma City, I graduate welding school this December with 3g stick, mig and flux and 6g tig. Love to watch your videos it makes me so ready to get out there and work!
I’m a 25 year CWI and I enjoy your videos. Keep it up
Austin - building your reputation for quality work. Excellent.
This man stays ready. Got the tony's seasoning in the dash
Hey Austin I have been a firefighter for 14 years. I wanna be a welder when I grow up!
Just can't get enough of your awsome and very helpful vidos keep them coming Austin 👍 😀
Always a pleasure to watch a REAL pro !
I felt that ending bro yes sir man 🔥💯
It's frustrating when somebody that don't weld, don't understand how long it can take to do things right.
And or in the case of this video, Do it over again after someone else has buggered it up. lol.
youtube is so neat! here i am knowing next to nothing about welding but i get to sit and watch a master at work!
its cool watching you work and you look like you enjoy your craft and i like your attitude. very positive
Injoyed the video. Really good speech at the end been really kicking around the idea of starting a mobile welding business. Thanks for the great videos
Great advice buddy. I bought a welding business and then apprenticed to become a welder, in Canada it’s a 3 year program where you work for ten months and for two months you take classes in the morning and practice in the afternoon for 3 hours a day. Four years later I’m averaging CA $250K a year.
I’m loving the videos
That’s good to hear! Thank you for watching!
The last minute of this video is the most important. Thanks for that.
Nice job. The inspector made the correct call and the system worked for the benefit of every person who enters that store. I'm going to buy some stick rods and them out.
Great video! Contractors almost always default to the low bid. After two or three attempts to cheap out they learned to invest in experience for the rest of the job because they found experienced men are cheaper in the long run. Unfortunately most contractors will have to learn this lesson repeatedly because of their need to squeeze every penny until President Lincoln cries...
Clean pressed shirts!! Now that's impressive for a welder!!
This guy is always looking spiffy!
Brings back some old memories!!!! Looks good!!!!
Stay blessed Austin, love your content!
Great experience,I've had some nightmare go behinds,done by so called certified welders,all welds sonic tested 3/4" 10x10,all welds failed,brought in 4 pipe welders,all welds had to be air arced out,cost of a crane,200.00 an hour for welders,poor contractor had to pay 2400.00 a day for 8 day's when he could have hired qualified welders from the start,he said her learned the hard way,but he hired my company for every job after that,good job Austin!
That's exactly why good welders command good wages. They're worth every penny. It's always far more expensive to fix than to hire the right person from the start. You get what you pay for.
Pay me now or pay me later. It’ll always cost you more to pay me later.
welders like that piss me off so much.. if you weld something structural then you are the one who is reasonable for any deaths should a building fall down on people..its one thing to weld up something small like a welding cart to welding a building together.. IDIOTS !
@@Migman2020 don’t blame the welders, blame the boss and management, if some scmuck is going to only pay me $20 an hour I’m going to give him a $20 weld, if he is paying me $50 I’m going to give him the best weld I possibly can.
@@quickshot4050 Heres a idea.. how about you just find another place of work if willing to risk lives in the future over a pay dispute? welding is one of those jobs where you can mess around at all. things fail because of bad welds and you know this
I really appreciate the way you show tying off your ladder using the ratchet strap. You can't be too safe
I hate heights on ladders. When trimming palm trees I always tie off the ladder cause I’m scared of the swaying up there.
I run that same ladder for most of my repair jobs. I'm glad you're working man.
Nice job Austin. I have been called in to fix three huge jobs just in the past 2 months. At least that is red iron, preengineered buildings suck, they slam em up in 2 weeks and then like you have 2 days to weld everything.....yeah right, prep to remove the dip paint is like one day. For people who don't know, wanna learn to do structural, learn to weld 1/8 thick steel with 7018 3/32 in 4F and learn to control the penetration, this will make other stuff seem simple.
The welding school in my town has a huge waiting list so I ended up going and applying for the one about 30 minutes from my work
Yo, welding in school with pre-positioned setups is gravy, I've been in the field like you, getting yourself up there while balancing on a ladder and putting out a nice weld, that's not stuff they teach in class, you have to be a first class athlete to pull that off and not injuring or buying the farm, well done>
I been a boiler mechanic for 15 years in Washington, DC. No gloves, no protective outfits, no welding cap, just a helmet some 5p++++, 7018 Excaliburs. Welding one handed daily, oh and I wear real boots with laces!!!! Passed my 6g test in 40 mins.
Real welder...
It's been a week to find this channel and i almost done watching your all videos. Glad i found it. I am a beginner and wanted to learn more about welding. I was a pipe fitter only this pandemic time have interest about welding for some reason i did some Do IT Yourself welding at home. 😊
"I'm stressed out, that just one of the things on these construction sites, structural jobs" is what I've would of said 😂😂😂 Finally seeing some of the work I do on your page. I'm a D1.1, along with other certs. That the shit I deal with daily smh lol
Anyone can weld. But only a qualified JM can do a proper weld. Good job.
No. Literally anyone can weld. I started welding last month and I have yet to find something in the range of my welder that I can't weld successfully. The qualifications are just for insurance purpose, the weld will basically be the same regardless of the operator.
@@xl000 something to try i(f in range of your welder) welding with a engine powered stick welder (not in a building but outside) a 1/8th inch thick 4ft x8ft sheet of A36 steel plate to another of the same and join them length wise to make a 8ft x 8ft plate using a 1/8th 7018 electrode and the plate must be flat without ......distortion ......and it will lay flat on a concrete pad. if successful try it with 14 gauge steel and appropriate electrode. also take a 6ft wide x10 ft long x 3/4 inch thick A36 steel plate lying flat and weld a 1/2inch thick 4ft x10ft A36 steel plate lying lengthwise at a 45 degree angle skywards and the weld must be full strength and porous free with no fisheyes using 5/32" 7018 electrode for the root pass and then using a 7/16 " 7024 electrode to fill and finish the weld. the plate must be distortion free within 1/8 of an inch lengthwise and the 45 degree wing plate must not be buckled length wise.and must be straight. 👍
This is what i do all day, everyday! Really cool to see you doing different stuff other than just the pipe. Hope the work keeps flowing sir!!
I'm going to welding school right now, looking forward to joining the workforce!
Thanks for sharing your videos and thanks for the motivation.
Your new life motto needs to be "when it to hard for them it's just right for me"
Commercial construction is a much better fit for you than always having to jack around with the never ending stress of taking welding tests for pipe line ! Fence welding for you is just pocket money . Good luck with commercial work , maybe you've found a nitch that's a very good fit for your skill sets !!!!
I love how you take your time that’s the way it should be safety first
Living the life, Austin!
So ready to go to welding school and start things like this
Where are you going to school?
Jerry Morton most likely Pulaski Tech since its close by
William Scott, just curious I just enrolled in TWS
i go to welding school and it really fun but remember have patience and if the weld keep coming off Bad change your welding angle i have seen lots of people quit welding because they get frustrated on how bad there welds come out but practice is key to being successful in welding i got to South Texas Vo Tech
爪ㄚ丂ㄒ乇尺ㄚ爪卂几 I am in school right now, taking MIG and FCAW at the moment. Getting frustrated with FCAW because my welds are not improving much and my instructor is no help whatsoever. My MIG class, I can actually see every weld I do is better than the last because my instructor is so helpful. I believe that in many things, a student is only as good as his teacher.
Austin, this is totally off topic.... Has anyone every told you that you and Destin from Smarter Every Day UA-cam Channel kinda look alike? It be cool if you guys hooked up and did a video on the science behind welding.
thats sooo wierd but cool i guess
Holy shit, they are so similar I actually thought I was watching a SED video at first. @smartereveryday
I’m going for it! Start welding school next month. And already piecing together mobile welder rig.
My brother was out in Oklahoma from a snow storm repairing some stuff and he saw you out there! So cool!!
6:50 i feel like the explanation in this sentence is a reason why you (Austin) should take a metallurgy class just to understand WHY this actually matters. as opposed to relying on field experience and what you hear from people on the job. youre a damn good worker. i just think a little more knowledge on the way welding effects the material may benefit you and your progress.
Damn your good
I like the part were you welded one way then the other way on one section. 3 times at the end before you talked about dont be afraid. I been watchin your vids and there very inspiring. Eric in Spring Branch Tx
You doing some great stuff over there. And the advice at the end its very inspiring. Continue the good work and making nice welds and movies for us to enjoy you a great welder. Greetings from The Netherlands. 😁👍🏻
Good to see another welder out there getting it done!
Austin. Glad you took down that hater ironworkers midas welder comment. The world needs all of us, no matter what we are! Glad your keeping the comment section open for others who wish to learn and have constructive conversation.
For those of you who may not know my name is Austin Ross the baddest motherfu__ing rig welder lol love your videos keep up the good work.
I have watched this video like 3 times and it’s still so interesting
Nice work Austin, enjoy all the videos and look forward to all the upcoming videos!
The money you make on this job get a LN 25 so you can wire the next one and cut your time in half and double your money
Will they allow flux core for these jobs?
H & K Bee just depends on how the WPS is written. Or follow specific code with prequalified procedures.
No need to pack a ln 25 around on a small job like this.
motoMFthug it’s called investing in your own business one of the smartest investments
Could you please explain what a LN 25 is?
Now you on someone else time. Hope your getting paid by the hour . Good work Austin . You should invest in an LN-25 NR 211 wire. 5/64 . Save you time.
This is exacty what i thought too! But mabey he is only qualified for stick so that is what he stuck too
LN for sure, can run the 232 wire as well
I totally agree with u fellows regarding LN. However if it takes 40hrs @50 hr . To save time it now takes u 20 hrs @50. Who is winning & who is losing?? T&M all day gr8t lookn passes sir
les 1727 well if you get paid hourly and not per job then yeah milk that cow 💴 but if you gotta keep it moving, weld like a bat out of hell. Whatever makes the money makes sense to me. 🤙
Pressed pants and jacket. very nice!! I can appreciate that as a military man.
Sweet video man! Looks fun. Glad your getting jobs! Love the end of your video, great advice 👌!
Austin, you always wear the well pressed and starched shirts. Do you or your wife do the hard work making them look so good?
You need them pressed and starched the beads will roll right off and shirt won’t catch fire.
It most be A smaller company, every company I’ve welded for makes sure you pass all certs before they let you weld in the field.
You're having way too much fun. Awesome job as always man!!✌️😎
You're the man.
Courtice, Ontario, Canada brother!!!!!
Don't let the inspector see you on that aluminum ladder
Why? I've seen many rig welders on those kinda ladders.
@@kadenarvello5648 that's a big osha no no. Supposed to be fiberglass. I have a very similar ladder on my truck personally but have been told to not use it on jobs. They do conduct electricity well too
Building or Home Inspector? Either way....guys are super picky.
Welding inspector.
@@arosswelding The pickiest.
@@WhatAboutU.S.
Oh man....
I wonder if that inspector has a collection of pictures of the worst welds he has ever seen. Thinking that omg this has got to be the worst "welding" I have ever seen. Then 3 or 4 jobs later what does he see? Oh I have got to take a pic of this garbage lol. I always wondered what happened if a job was inspected and there was still a dangerous failure. Does that inspector loose his license to inspect ?
Always like your channel but especially liked your advice this time “just go for it”... I’m getting back to welding after a different career and with everything going down these days it’s been tough! I ate a lot of peanut butter sandwiches to save up for a basic rig, some tools and a good hood. Focusing on the goal and telling doubters to get lost (might have used other words there) is the only way to get it done. Thanks bro.
My dad was a welder for more than 60 years. He used to not like going over someone else’s mess to fix it. Especially on structural when the previous welder did not pass inspection
