dude I almost just wanna buy a truck and tools and just learn from your hands on video instructions vs. the community college I'm attending. lol. .... naw but seriously thanks for these... it allows me to practice it's dope stuff.... trying to get it right with pipe fittings and welding in general... arc welding tigs.. over heads .. stainless steel structural steel.. whatever... it's all new to this kid anyways I served in the Marines corps for 21 years now it's all about the trade life for me next best thing to blowing stuff up.. is building stuff up... GET SOME!
We do it a little different offshore smaller tacks an we never drive a wedge in it just use a spacer. I guess when you learn it different it looks wrong when you see done a different way . I don't like 2" sch40 or 80 pipe . Offshore pipeline welder 32 years . It's great your sharing your skills with other welders God bless you .
Just found your channel. Giving you a sub. Never welded pipe before but after watching you I'm sure I like welding in a warm shop as opposed to outside like you. My hats off to you and all the pipe welders out there.
Just want to say thanks for your videos they are a big help. I just turned 35 and am going to school to in a worker retraining program for welding. Watching your videos have helped me out tremendously with my 7018 positions and with the information on getting your foot in the door with welding job prospects. Keep up the great work and videos . Brandon from Washington state.
I maybe wrong but the water in the pipe can only come from condensation. Pipe left out during a warm day attracts condensation as it cools during the night and subject to the time of year and terrain dew can also collect in pipe laid outside. Here in the UK it just rains for 300days a year so water is problem we have to live with.
I just found your channel also and sub'd.....I am retired live in Michigan and teaching myself to weld but what caught my eye on your channel at first was we share the same last name same spelling and all.....great video looking forward to watching more!
Not sure my comment is necessary but imma say it anyways, bout 5 years too late. There’s no moisture in the steal … the preheat is to prevent rapid cooling and thermal shock basically, preventing cracking in the bead or tacks. The moisture you see is from the combustion process of the preheat torch itself, fuel combined with oxygen creating water vapor… it’s condensation basically on the cold pipe. Flame impingement. Not trying to be a smart A$$ and call anyone out, just want to clarify something that’s incorrect. This and other videos are super helpful on many things and very spot on in most cases. (Welder here for 25 years myself) just trying to add informative information to fellow welders.
the fires are all over the world.... the Netherlands used to be a rainy cold climate................................. i haven't skated on natural frozen waters since i was 14 years old (now 32)
I like this guy. Wish I had the chance to work for him. I'd learn everything I could. Trying to get the truck together now. Probably be ready in s few weeks
@@JacobSchofield thank you for your response!! I'm sending you small videos via email. And yes!!! I'm getting my truck soon!! And it's like an early Christmas.. who doesn't love tools!??? Thank you brother for your great videos. And one day, I pray I get the opportunity to be a helper.
great vid bro. looking to take my 3G test in a couple weeks. did my first open v groove in 1G today. it was cool. used a 6011 at around 85 amps for root and hot. 7018 3/32 at around 90 amp for intermediate and cover.
Say it's good to see you up there at the empyre South I come across that dude he was rebuilding an SAE 300 he still ain't got the damn thing done I was going to buy a 271 Detroit and a 1978 SAE 400 but I found this deutz diesel- SAE 350 and just had to have it so I got out of building one from scratch however I got to do the jugs on this I can't win for losing
Hey man, stumbled on your channel. Couple questions. Why isn’t your helper fitting you up? And why not tack all your spools up first, toss em aside until you’ve got 30-40”, theeeen toss em on your wheel, heat them up and weld em. This way you can keep the heat in your piece and your fitter/helper can leave you alone for a couple hours and smash out the math and cut pups. Not sure if that would help you out. I know everyone has their own way of doing things. I’m a pipefitter/welder and I learn something new from every guy I work with still.
oh for sure nicky we do when we have a lot of the same thing but my hing is the least amount of times i have to pick that piece up the better. jed is recording for us most of the time so thats why you dont see him often.
You got that SAE 300 dude when I had figured out my reactor right that freaking 350 I've got will drag a Rod up uphill man never seen anything like it I know the stuff that you're doing is a hell of a lot more technical than what I'm doing however a good weld is a good weld rather your spinning circles run in the quarter mile I got about 25000 pounds of steel to hang in this house I'm going to take y'all to work with me one day I'd like to get an arc shot camera but they're too expensive I'm just getting started but to be able to teach people Arc blow and how to counteract that in the differences between welding machines is phenomenal I'm going to do a video of an oil burner jobsite heater very simple heat exchanger in burner got a small job to do today but I'll see if I can't get something downloaded on it tonight y'all stay safe
Robert Atwood dude that’s freaking awesome and I know exactly what your saying about those cameras high dollar suckers. Start a UA-cam deal man that would help a lot of people
So the concept of preheat to temp deals with slow dissipation of heat on the item to be welded? Cooling rapidly causes the cracking? And standing water on the pipe definitely cant be welded.
This week at work I’ve seen my foreman get a wedge and heat it up to cherry red( only half of the wedge ) untill a magnet don’t stick to it, then dip it in oil.
Love watching the videos man, hoping/planning to break out soon just as a single hand soon in the plants. But most definitely wanna work in the oil/gas industry on the line I herd you mentioned anadarko my first job as a helper in platteville Co. I miss that job badly my welder was very influential and still calls to check on me I believe I messed up lol I currently work for Fagen thinking I would learn more about pipe fitting in a plant but that was a joke. Keep the videos coming man hoping to see ya out there one day I’d be a pleasure shooting the bull and learn a thing or two from ya
The area looked familiar in your video and I appreciate it man wish there were more guys like you out there honestly a lot of these young welders (same age group as me) I run into in the single hand business have no idea what being humble means
Why do you prefer that type of welding helmet over a regular one? My day used to weld for a living in the 70's and 80's and I remember he had a hood like the one you are using in this video. He passed away in 2005 so I can't ask him about it.
Have you consider to do a carbon infusion at somewhat 1200 degrees C ? I mean that will make a difference, there is a very fine line between brittle and soft.. and the job is not that hard to do..
Ah, Clickspring, that guy is amazing, he makes beautiful things currently an ancient celestial computer reproduction and his videos are also amazing. Nice bloke from Cairns Queensland Australia.
Did ya end up building your own wedges? I was gonna say watch your leaf springs guys on your rigs they might come up missing and be turned into wedges lol.
I started building my own wedges years ago..I only use brass but we don't get only carbon down here in corpus.. Matthew dearman makes some pretty good shitty wedges tho
Ever think about shortening the V? I cut my handle in half. Takes the weight off, welding for 10 hrs, it makes it little better. And, yea, wedges are junk, and overpriced.
yeah i know a lot of guys that do but its really uncomfortable for me to be chocked up on that stinger i like holding it at the very end as far away from the fire as i can get.
Yes I hate Matthew dearman wedges too they only wedge them on one side and I hate that. they need to be wedged on both sides. And their fitter square is crap.
Bob Langill in the video it specifically says there is no preheat tempture in the procedure... not that there is no welding procedure. Hope that clears it up.
95% of the stuff stuff you said after heating the pipe. I did not know. On the knowledge stuff. Cold I wonder. My welding school don't teach us 100% they teach us up hill down hill and all the fruity stuff
As a fitter, everything about this video made me cringe. First fit.... no regard for high low or side to side or gap. Guy put half the root in on first tac. Then puts the other quarter of root in and hangs out. Draw my life one way or the other not my pipe ffs.....
Ok little lady. Yes should of mentioned high low side to side and gap but I figured that was pretty obvious and self explanatory but as long as it’s square and good to go . Send it to the bolts let them bolt it up.... if you are having a small conniption over the video the pause button or the, get the fuck off my page button is pretty easy to find on your phone. I looked your page up and there is zero anything... Have a great day man. Hope that cleared some stuff up for you.
@@JacobSchofield actually didn't clear up anything. I was watching your channel to check out what you pipe line guys do that is so different than us industrial guys other than our welders go up hill and yall down hill, you boys stay in a ditch and I'm most of the time in a ceiling or 100 feet up pulling measurements off of steel. I take alot of pride in what I do so when I see the stuff I mentioned it bothers me. Most welders can almost fit their way out of a wet paper bag but know the importance of a good fit. Even if it was for demonstration purposes doesn't make it right, maybe I'm just being to anal. And just cause I dont have any vids,info, or content doesn't mean I dont have a point. Sorry if you had a conniption cause I criticized you.

All of my welding so far has been in the summer. Your video tips will come in very handy this winter when I do some welding with my everlast.
Right on Leslie hope it works out
Sawyer wedges work for me pretty well. I've always been told the springs make the best. Stay safe brother.

Ronnie Mac style welding videos, I like it.
hahahah Thank you very much lol
Jacob,
I have a few questions for you, please email me.
Thanks
Aaron at 6061 . com
My favorite wedge is a old crescent wrench cut ground down but don't get it hot and they are rock solid
You probably have, but try running the bead in with 3/32. I know that was a game changer for me with 2"
2 inch sched 80 1/8 rod 3/32 land keyhole and run..... 5/32 70 18 hot pass n cap. Last session was bout 120 inches of fit up and weld out 100%xray
I've never tried welding with my powerarc in really cold weather. Good to know.
"The more you weld the warmer it'll get"

Jacob Schofield @ a boy. Digging the channel.
Your welding helmet is something else man lol.
Have you never seen a Pancake hood?? You need to try one for sure especially for being outside they are amazing
Always use your Squares over your levels if you can always.
What's the purpose of using that wedge what does it do?
You got that SAE 300 dude when I had figured out my reactor right that freaking 350 I've got will drag a Rod up uphill man never seen anything like it I know the stuff that you're doing is a hell of a lot more technical than what I'm doing however a good weld is a good weld rather your spinning circles run in the quarter mile I got about 25000 pounds of steel to hang in this house I'm going to take y'all to work with me one day I'd like to get an arc shot camera but they're too expensive I'm just getting started but to be able to teach people Arc blow and how to counteract that in the differences between welding machines is phenomenal I'm going to do a video of an oil burner jobsite heater very simple heat exchanger in burner got a small job to do today but I'll see if I can't get something downloaded on it tonight y'all stay safe

So the concept of preheat to temp deals with slow dissipation of heat on the item to be welded? Cooling rapidly causes the cracking? And standing water on the pipe definitely cant be welded.
Def heat the metal. To remove water trapped on the surface, and to evaporate the water from combustion.
It helps to warm up the weld joint with your tongue.
This week at work I’ve seen my foreman get a wedge and heat it up to cherry red( only half of the wedge ) untill a magnet don’t stick to it, then dip it in oil.
Try some truck leaf springes for wedges I have had good with them

Nice rollout wheel

temp stick use them all the time in digesters and high low clamps to draw in screens using 309 l 16.
Outside with cold metal you should always preheat the metal to at least 300 degrees.
Thomas Lyons 50 degress min preheat for anything under 3/4 wall. Over 3/4 wall , 175 - 250 preheat for carbon.
Do u have to post heat the pipe also during the winter
Have you consider to do a carbon infusion at somewhat 1200 degrees C ? I mean that will make a difference, there is a very fine line between brittle and soft.. and the job is not that hard to do..
See these are things i need to learn and would really like to learn. thanks for the info now I need to figure out how to do it.
Look for ClickSpring channel and see how he make steel out of simple and plain Iron using that carbon infusion that I mentioned before.. good luck.
Ah, Clickspring, that guy is amazing, he makes beautiful things currently an ancient celestial computer reproduction and his videos are also amazing. Nice bloke from Cairns Queensland Australia.
What brand is your auto dark? Singles? Reason I ask is because my singles shade 10 gets dark when I grind. Does yours do the same?
First of your videos i have seen, liked subbed, bell'd. What brand are those blue magnetic levels you are using?
Thabnks dave means a lot they are Empire
Good job scholfield 👍👍
At my welding school. They told us we have to weld uphill, but in the field why downhill?
Just depends on the procedure.
Make a wedge outta tool steel. Ive had good luck with that. Had a buddy that a machinist make me one.
Where can i get one of them clamps? The rotator clamp
its a roll out wheel and man I tell you they are awesome google off the hook fabrication he buit that one.
is that tool that you mount your flanges up to (think yall call it a roll out wheel? might be wrong) your personal tool? if so, how much was that?
GettingItTogether he made a vid on his and and two of the other guys wheels
You just brought that piece of material up to, and then beyond the "dew point". Theres no moisture "in the pipe" just the atmosphere.
What kind of levels do you use?
Where's your rosebud??haha... Like watching your videos. Keep it up & thxs..
siiting in the tool box lol
Hey Jacob, what lens are you using in that pancake?
single shade miller
What rod you using for that process
10 hours in cold or 10 hours in the hot ?
Where is your pipe vice from?? I need 1
Did ya end up building your own wedges? I was gonna say watch your leaf springs guys on your rigs they might come up missing and be turned into wedges lol.
What kind of level are you using
where are you all located for this job?
A buddy of mine made his from truck leaf springs.
What level do you use ???? The Blue ones !!!
13SKULLWRECKER empires or stables
What kind of weld positioner are you using?
its just a roll out wheel from offthehook Darren
I might have a solution to your wedge problem. What is a good way to contact you?
Dana Edwards email me at schofieldwelding@gmail.com then I’ll shoot you my phone number
If you think sch 80 2in is bad i was on one job where we were welding sch 40 2 in. Now that stuff is thin
I love the cold
I started building my own wedges years ago..I only use brass but we don't get only carbon down here in corpus.. Matthew dearman makes some pretty good shitty wedges tho
you make Brass wedges? arnt those super soft?
Could you take a moment and tell us newbies what the wedges are for please
Really? 😂
at least you get a shed to work in
What brand are those blue levels?
Empire I think.
Get your old file break it in half and make ya 2 wedges shit works pretty good
you got my like when you said and they dont care thats fucking true
hahahah dang right thanks Miguel
I despise 2” I was on a job for about two months of schedule 40 the most boring thing I’ve done
We make our own wedges outta rebar bro
No safety glasses, hearing protection or handle on your grinder?
chad hunter what are you inspector chad from OSHA
hahaha dont need them they are not required through this company the pancake is osha a proved so thats a plus thanks for watching stay tuned
Drink lotsa coffee.
ColKorn1965 without a doubt man
Great video. How about 2" sch. 40. So gross!!!! Just hate welding it !
Make you some wedges out of old threading dies
Oh yeah thats a good idea for sure.
Your a Badass.
man I try lol
As much as you hate welding that 2 inch I hate shootin it. And Anadarko it seems has nothing but 2 inch!
Ever think about shortening the V? I cut my handle in half. Takes the weight off, welding for 10 hrs, it makes it little better. And, yea, wedges are junk, and overpriced.
yeah i know a lot of guys that do but its really uncomfortable for me to be chocked up on that stinger i like holding it at the very end as far away from the fire as i can get.
You should try buying wedges from MSCDirect.com. It’s where I bought my wedges and I still have some from over a year ago
dang thanks Bryson thats awesome i will look them up
williams tools wedges
Yes I hate Matthew dearman wedges too they only wedge them on one side and I hate that. they need to be wedged on both sides. And their fitter square is crap.
but you make the big bucks!!!
Weld the wings in a butterfly
hahahah never heard that one before but i like it.
Welding all fun and money? To whom? I want this fun and money too lol
Well I guess it depends on who you are I suppose.
I need to build me a roller
Why are pipe liner welding helmets designed like that , what's the advantages ?
no glare from the back full eye protection and when your upside down it dosnt want to fall off your head thats really why i like them.
sch 80 2" is beauty. sch 40 2" blows lol
agreed!!!!!!!! lol still hate sch 80 but that sch 160 is pretty fun except it pulls like crazy
agreed!!!!!!!! lol still hate sch 80 but that sch 160 is pretty fun except it pulls like crazy
It’s because you don’t know how to use them. I’ve never had any problems with those wedges
those mathey wedges are the same deal. I bent the sh*t out of mine.. Hate em
Moisture in the pipe? What?!
Scab Fab
At 11:01 thats what she said
hahahah to funny
🤣sorry bro but you had me rolling over here all the way to 2 inch lol. God bless you
Must be H&M wedges you're talking about. I hate em.
Try schedule 40
man been welding a moutain of that stuff lately
That’s what she said lol
Ok what does a pipeline welder earn $$$$$$.
With his own rig tools everything.
plenty... anywhere from 55.00hr -110.00 depends on how well hooked up you are.
Wait...did you say, " no welding procedure".? Oh Jacob..sigh.
Bob Langill there is no required preheat temp. In the procedure
Bob Langill in the video it specifically says there is no preheat tempture in the procedure... not that there is no welding procedure. Hope that clears it up.
I guess the cold was getting to me..lol
Hahaha your not kidding lol it’ was a cold sucker yesterday but 50s today
Nice. I Enjoy your vids and gotta say we do things pretty much alike up here. Keep it safe and keep cranking òut the inches.😎
