Argon is available off Amazon, tank showed up full and everything
Really??? where are you gonna get it filled? most places only fill their own tank
@@cs-gj3yf my closest airgas location just does exchanges, never had any issues with customer owned tanks.
@@kevin-pk6hd didnt think they would exchange if its not their tank
@@cs-gj3yf the only ones that they won't do is if they are marked "property of xyx" because that could be a leased tank vs owned. I have a bunch of tanks now and travel all over the Midwest and haven't had an issue
@@kevin-pk6hd will the cheaper argon tanks come filled? you got a certain one youd buy? im just starting out, dont really have 700$ for a small personal tank
You forgot to mention what ever welder you get make sure you have a regulator or flow meter and a way to hook it up. Some welders online wont come with one and that is an important piece. You may need to add barbed connectors to the cart or quick connects but simplest is get a regulator that comes with attachments to do both like Prime Welds then you may just need to get the gas line and your in business. Thank you love what you do for the community!
Not to be a Debbie "downer".... the price in CDN $$ would be about double. Thanks for all the freaking taxes, Canada.
Two keys things that the beginner might consider:
- electrical power. 120v or 240v ? and the AMPs you need. For me, I needed 240v / 40 AMPs. You will have limitations with 120v but that might be ok for some, and not for others. Do your research. If you plan to roll your welder around, you may need an extension cord. And no, not your typical cord. I made my own from 8 AWG. Do not skimp.
- do not overlook the argon tank & re-fill costs. Where you reside might determine what's available. Around here, leasing is my only option for a decent sized bottle. Cost wise, bigger is better. Small bottles are nice but you'll pay dearly for refills. Do your research.
I think the primeweld machine most people use would be the 225x. It's a very highly praised machine for beginner and experienced welders.
I've actually been hoping to see it on your channel one day to see how you like it since I've never actually seen anything bad said about the product so far.
I heard of TIG welding but knew nothing about it till I get a demo arc captain inverter TIG off Amazon for like $100. I messed with it but could not make anything decent so then took TIG class at the college I work at. Hoping to get AWS level one for TIG, not sure if i'll bother with the others though. Got flux core and stick too at home but for my needs i can do fine with as is.
That is awesome to see you give a demo of putting together a welding setup for studio. I have a welding studio that I purchased primeweld Tig 225x with Maxcool 3000 watercooler w/ flex-loc torch this setup at the time was under $1500 my portable work table $75 . I've been at it for 3 yrs now never had a bad time Tig welding. You and Justin are both full of knowledge can't forget about Jody the three of you guys who I've watched to teach myself how to Tig weld even my wife was blown away seeing unicorn farts !!!!!!!😮😮😮 She loves the colors that I can throw down all and all it took me 5 1/2 months to get comfortable with Tig welding. Picked it up qnd never looked back love it every time I strike a arc.. 👨🏭👩🏭🧑🏭 ha ha ha LoL look what they have for welding torch.......😮😮😮😮😮😮
That yeswelder helmet is cool but I sent it back same day. Too heavy. Bought the yeswelder with a smaller window. Much happier for me without all that weight causing neck strain.
After buying a cheap helmet which didn't work (Flashed all the $@#&* time) I did some investigation before spending any more money. Yeswelder helmets looked good, but the manufacturer admitted that they too will probably flash when being used while tig welding. Take my advice, scrimp on everything else but buy the best helmet you can afford. You've only got 2 eyes and they have to last you your whole life.
I’m not a terrible welder. I can actually make some nice passes and made some stout parts with both aluminum and stainless steel. But I can’t do anything , not even make a bead with 1/8 aluminum filler. Why do you choose that to begin with? Not judging At all I’d actually like to be able to use it.
Really need to shave the beard if you want a good seal on your face. Perhaps try the banana oil test to make sure it's doing the job. No point in being uncomfortable if you don't get the benefit.
not a yes welder it flashs you not fast enough for tig dont go to cheap on welding helmet only have on set of eyes jackson not bad an good price
I bought that Yeswelder helmet. For some reason when I started tig welding it wouldn't dim enough and of course was very bright. Luckily I didn't hurt myself, but I had to buy a helmet from Harbor Freight.
Even with the shade setting turned up? I haven't really been encountering much negative feedback about that helmet, so it's surprising it didn't work for you. If you've got your settings right and it's still not doing the job, try reaching out to the seller, maybe they'll sort you.
@@LifeInJambles it's been over 3-4 months, but yea all the way cranked up too. I thought it was the battery, but still same.
@@dubbleA100 have you checked the toggle switch I know it may be one of the first things you checked but the helmet has a cutting setting and a weld setting. The cutting setting only goes to shade 8 the weld setting goes to 12.
@@mikeyamashi yea Ive played with it. From what I remember, it's fine on MIG, but when I TIG aluminum it's bad, I haven't double checked TIG steel though.
I have had exactly the same issue on TIG only using my Yeswelder helmet. I bought the Titanium in a hurry to finish a TIG project and it works much better and hasn't flashed me yet. The head gear broke in 4 days of welding though. The Vulcan helmet seems to be the best of the sub $120 helmets for TIG that I have tried.
How about checking out and reviewing what you ordered???
Wish I had seen this video...yesterday!
Great tips on a budget setup Dusty.
Stainless cleaning brushes!
If you want good things on a budget, I can vouch for Eastwood. They make amazing car parts, and their 200 amp ac/dc welder is just as good. I also own their helmet (L6700) and it is literally more clear than a miller digital elite 2.0 for $70. all in all, you could get both of those for around $770 (US), and save a bit compared to what dusty grabbed in the video. Also gloves. Harbor freight vulkan TIG gloves, they are super thin and super dexterous, they retain the most dexterity out of every glove ive used in 2 years of TIG welding.
Something I've been mulling over, and might be topic worth covering. Is it better to put the machine under the table and run a longer hose to the tank, or is it better to keep the table clean and put the machine and bottle on a cart. I'm currently running through this debate right now.
I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing for a welding table since the stuff I have an immediate need of welding is all very small. i WANT a portable fab table, however the projects I'm welding all fit on a piece of A4 legal paper (9"x14") so I'm really tempted to just make a small welding "stand" to use it on top of my existing benches. Significantly cheaper, and smaller footprint for my multi use (woodworking mostly, mechanic work, metal machining, etc.) garage workshop to include household storage. I cram a lot into a 2car garage. I really need a separate shop....maybe the next house.
Kinda funny, I just bought my first TIG and garage welding system. I bought this exact welder, helmet, and I almost bought that table but I ended up with the non rolling one with the clamps!
have the 225 an the 325 tigs Prime Weld is good welder an the best bang for the buck an comes with second to none customer support
Got some recommendations for welding table fixtures? Will need those too.
*You rock!* Thank you!!
The table you recommended has storage at the bottom, you have to put your legs off to the side to weld with it.
Thank you for this. Very informative!
Damn, right when I getting started with welding
Great video, Dusty
Merci pour cette belle vidéo Dusty
Merci pour cette vidéo Dusty
Is this in Canadian or American?
he's using the US Amazon site.
The welder alone in Cad is just shy of 2k, never mind everything else on that list.
@N2n6a4 no its not.
Great feature! Plus,you are an excellent story teller.
That was very informative! Thanks
I tried the yeswelder welding mask last year found it flashing when using tig even with sensitivity turned up seems to affect a lot of them
