as an electrician for 30 years now, I've learned how to fix any mistakes I make when wiring something. I think part of the learning process of any trade is to know how to fix a mistake. I bet it won't come apart now, and as for the cutting mistakes, I didn't see anything.... As usual, another great job done! If Isaac can weld (or cut), so can you! lol Have a Merry Christmas.
As a 25 year old starting out in this field I appreciate the comparison aspects of the videos, I’ve learned a lot about the repair side of welding from you. Thank you for the effort. Your son is truly blessed to have such a skilled instructor as a father. Keep it up.
Are you working for someone or starting your own business? I'm only asking because I started by working with an old timer for 5 years. Before buying my own equipment.
@@GARRETT-FAB Man that's great to hear. I'm not that much older than you, but I'm glad to hear that younger people still see how necessary, lucrative, and fulfilling trades like this can be. If you're 25 and starting your own business then you'll be alright.
@@GARRETT-FABKeep on top of the bookwork. That's where most tradies, no matter the trade, fall down. I personally had the wrong accountant for a number of years and that cost me plenty. I also let myself down by not keeping up with the simple bookwork and keeping receipts properly. Mark from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
It's always a pleasure watching you work buddy but i can't seem to let my love for the classic stick go so, hope you're well and strong. Keep on trucking my friend. Greetings from Greece.
You sir are amazing with the torch and carbon arc!!!! It’s mind blowing to watch you have at it. It didn’t take you but a few minutes to get more familiar with the plasma. I just stared watching your channel and the content is impressive.
Issac, if my son were doing that job, he would take that big hunk over to my metal blade cutoff saw and try to get it done quickly by whacking it off with Dad's new $80 carbide blade. LOL. Great videos, you are definitely a professional.
Howdy from Sacramento! I've never welded and don't expect to, but I really like watching your vids! Always a pleasure to watch a master craftsman at work!
Your second side with the plasma says it all. As your seat time increases so does your proficiency. I"m always learning something over here. Appreciate your time.
you are Michael Angelo with a torch!!!! Great gift you have, much of it learned from experience but also you have the steady hands of a surgeon. Love your videos..
Excellent video, thanks for sharing! It helps to pull the oxy acetylene torch from the work area once you are gouging to cover a larger surface area and get a smoother finish
Happy New Year Isaac, to you, your wife and your son and any other family members we haven't met! I hope that you all have a great, happy and safe year! Mark from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
Bought a Miller 252 for at home after seeing how much abuse the 251 takes at work. The 252 works ok most times at home but I don't feel it's as robust as the 251 is we use at work. With multiple users (abusers) it just runs, zero feeding issues. Not sure what the differences are between the two but the 251 can take more abuse. Great video .
Hi Issac….THANKS for all the information on weld type…voltage…Wire Speed….we love all those details. We thought that your wire would be .035. You did it with.030 interesting. We were hoping to see 7018 as your stick work is great. Maybe next time thanks for all that you teach….Steve
Beautiful job. Mig is great in the right hands if it's set right. .045 wire would have been my choice. For me.030 has always been for lighter welds, but you showed me different. Thnx.
You are a magician with the carbon arc gouging. Maybe Santa will bring you a new needle scaler. Looks like yours has had a few miles put on her. Hope you have a great Christmas. God bless!
Your videos are mesmerizing to watch; so satisfying to watch someone really excellent at what they're doing. For someone not in the trade, it is interesting to hear how you approach your work and the settings you use. When you arc gauge you angle the tip down into the metal, but when you plasma gauge you angle it almost flat across the metal. Maybe in a future video, you could elaborate on why a particular angle of attack, and what happens when you change the angles. Thanks for taking the time to publish this, I know that's work, too!
That was really good. Thank you showing the different ways and different tools to use. I got a plasma cutter not as big as one you have but it does. The trick turned out good. Thank you. Interesting stuff. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
I always learn something watching your videos. The plasma gouging looks like the best solution for those of us who can't handle a torch. Thanks for showing the various methods of removing that weld buildup.
Wow, I think I learned a lot from this video! I almost always do from your videos. I can see that all three methods of gouging have their raison d'etre. I appreciate the efforts you make to share your expertise and experience with us. Thanks, Isaac, and Merry Christmas to you and your family from Bruce and Karin in Germany.
Hi, excellent work and much appreciated all the hard work that goes in to you making videos can you show us you little turn table and what you made it from All the best Jamie James
You’ve got to admit it IC, Hypertherm has got the gouging thing figured out! Somehow, I never have owned an arc gouger, I always used oxy/acetylene and scarfing tips until I bought my Hypertherm 45XP. I keep it on the truck all the time and I can easily run it at max output off my Lincoln 305G engine drives.
I liked the different gouging methods. Carbon arc looks like the best to me. Your saw really payed off with making a good landing. I like that square that looks as handy as a shirt pocket. The welding looked good. Lots of passes but that what it takes. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Great prep. Video. I do most with a torch as I started in the late 70's. It's still what I am most comfortable with. I enjoyed the comparison and I try the plasma and airarc from time to time but still reach for the torch first. Great Video.
Think all three processes have there good and bad would depend on what's at hand on the given day me i prefer the Plasma but that's me thanks for showing us all the three have a great day Cheers
This video exhibits the efficiencies of the various gouging methods. If you have the equipment, the plasma process wins hands down. But as shown, the learning curve is pretty high for even as someone as proficient as you. We will be taking notes as you tune in the process for your current equipment.🤔 I’m also watching that jaw dropping laser welding processes. Wow! I can see the advantages when butt welding sheetmetal and controlling distortion.

I have about 6 years fabrication in a shop setting and worked with some great and knowledgeable guys. I just this year started my own company.

Thanks for a year of great entertainment and have a happy festive season with the family.
I could almost feel the intense heat of that work!
You are a very good teacher I can see it takes lots of patience
You sir are amazing with the torch and carbon arc!!!! It’s mind blowing to watch you have at it. It didn’t take you but a few minutes to get more familiar with the plasma. I just stared watching your channel and the content is impressive.
Thanks for the multiple ways to gouge/remove weld. I learn with every vid.
You sir are actually a teacher.
Your videos are great! They really need to bring back vocational schools. Your videos would be mandatory learning. 👍
Issac, if my son were doing that job, he would take that big hunk over to my metal blade cutoff saw and try to get it done quickly by whacking it off with Dad's new $80 carbide blade. LOL. Great videos, you are definitely a professional.
I love watching two true artists, you and Kurtis
Fantastic work with the torch. Great Indian torch bearer 🔥👍
Dress Right Dress, PROPER Repair! Phenomenal work ISAAC! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
all ways nice to see different options to do the same job.
U are a legend at wat u do my friend
Great Work Isaac. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁🎅 from 🇬🇧
Great video. It was great that you showed the different ways that you can do things. You are amazing with a torch though.
Damn. 27v and 602…gotta love that spray transfer
Sir thank you for showing all the ways to get it fixed,
Excellent,learn something from every one of your videos
Plasma and laser are new toys. The control you have with arc gouger and gas torch take years of practice . Wow.
Nice vid. Appreciate you taking the time to show all three cutting methods.
Howdy from Sacramento! I've never welded and don't expect to, but I really like watching your vids! Always a pleasure to watch a master craftsman at work!

Nice arc shots! I agree, arc gouging is king. So much more control
Great work it lives to drill another day
Merry Christmas to you and yours. Thanks for the education and entertainment.
Nice to see you had time to load a video. Nice job 👍
you are Michael Angelo with a torch!!!! Great gift you have, much of it learned from experience but also you have the steady hands of a surgeon. Love your videos..
On a job like this I would have 100% used my torch over my air arc. Never have tried plasma gouging. Good on you sir for show the options
There is no work in the shop right now so you have inspired me to practice arch gouging and vertical welding my 2 weakest skils
Thank you Isaac. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. GOD bless you and your family.🎉
I completely agree with doing things the way you know how to do them, the way you are good at them, despite how other people might be doing it.
Another good one Isaac. Very interesting with different methods.
Very very good Man , you are an artist with a torch
I am learning from You
Fantastic. !!!!
You are the master of the arc 👍beautiful job cheers from California
Excellent video, thanks for sharing! It helps to pull the oxy acetylene torch from the work area once you are gouging to cover a larger surface area and get a smoother finish
Great job as always
Happy New Year Isaac, to you, your wife and your son and any other family members we haven't met! I hope that you all have a great, happy and safe year!

90 👍's up IC WELD thank you for sharing 😎
Great job! That plasma works pretty slick!
Nice showing the different processes for removing old material. Skill set impressive!
You Sir are a Artist of what you do. Well done fella.
You might have put it in the saw, but I like the different methods of removing metal

With multiple users (abusers) it just runs, zero feeding issues. Not sure what the differences are between the two but the 251 can take more abuse. Great video .
I'm not sure of the differences in machines but the 251 works great. It was one of the first wire welding machines I bought. Still holding up strong.
Hi Issac….THANKS for all the information on weld type…voltage…Wire Speed….we love all those details. We thought that your wire would be .035. You did it with.030 interesting. We were hoping to see 7018 as your stick work is great. Maybe next time thanks for all that you teach….Steve
I always learn something new when I watch your videos! Thanks for sharing!
Good comparison on the gouging process Isaac. Glad you took the time to show the different processes and how results may vary.
Liked the use of the auto-sensing welding lens with your video! Great teaching and comparison Isaac!
Love the curved torch tips--have never seen that before !!!
Great work, Isaac!
Excellent video as always Isaac - well done from Canada!
Excellent job ,greetings from Colombia
Another great job by a great craftysman
I save plasma gouging for aluminum.. but i gotta say that hypertherm machine hauls the mail. Impressive for sure!
Nice job😊
Beautiful job. Mig is great in the right hands if it's set right. .045 wire would have been my choice. For me.030 has always been for lighter welds, but you showed me different. Thnx.
Very interesting to see the difference in methodology. Peace.
Love multiple pass jobs as always nice work

Looks like yours has had a few miles put on her.
Hope you have a great Christmas.
God bless!
Thank you for sharing a real situation that most would expierence
Very interesting ! Thanks for sharing !
When I worked for a drill bit mfg company, I bought custom-made welding tips from Profax. Great video!

Thanks for taking the time to publish this, I know that's work, too!
Good suggestion. Thats an interesting observation. good catch. I hadnt noticed the difference in angle.
great video, nice work, thanks for the lesson
Cool Hand Luke...try Cool Hand Isaac. Very nice work. Thank you for another fine lesson.
Pray all are well with you and yours'.
Thank you for the video!
That was really good. Thank you showing the different ways and different tools to use. I got a plasma cutter not as big as one you have but it does. The trick turned out good. Thank you. Interesting stuff. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
@welderfaber loves ur videos always says ur a man he loves to watch ❤
Needle scanners are a great invention what did we ever do without
Nice work
Great video.
Air arc for the win!

🙌🏼👍🏼👏 Thanks for providing a number of different types of gouging to get the same results.
another well done repair
Awesome, thank you for sharing, always a pleasure watch your project 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the tutorial,great to see the results.
Fabulous job again Isaac
Respect ... Some field jobs are trial and analysis. Great suff I c
Very nice

Nice work. love the vids
Something that almost looks like an impossibility somehow you make it look damn good!

Thanks for the video.
Now THAT is a needle scaler.
You make it look so easy , keep the vid's coming , thank's Richard in the UK
Think all three processes have there good and bad would depend on what's at hand on the given day me i prefer the Plasma but that's me thanks for showing us all the three have a great day Cheers
Isaac you are awesome and the way you explain everything is always amazing. I have been watching for a couple of years
Looks way stronger than the first go round Isaac . Nice work .:)
