All the times that I've been x-rayed I've never got to see this process and this makes me feel a whole lot better take the edge off of things knowing this thanks for sharing this
I got the chance to hang out with QC and X-Ray guys early in my welding career. I really believe it helped me to be a better welder faster. Mostly because the uncertainty of what they were looking for, and understanding the tolerances, helped me to just relax and weld. Your doing a great service to all of us, with your content. Really appreciate it, Thank You.
My daughter graduates HS in May, and is enrolled in Western Welding Academy in Gillette, Wyoming in August. We watch your vids together, regularly, and very much enjoy the entertainment and education…. Thanks for your channel and content.
It 🎉emember me in the 70’s when am start doing pipe in mexico we call “linerieros” in that time congrats don’t fell better than others is the best thing
😄👍 man.. here's an example.. My dad is a guitar pro, and for me, looking at him playing is crazy. It is impossible for me😄 I told him the same thing! "You make it look so easy"... everybody has a talent because of so many years of practice.. that's all it is man
Man, the sun fills good in winter.. that morning was cold, and i rather have my hands flexible and not freezing where you can't move them, lol! Anyway its all good 😉 On the X-rays procedure? not sure, I didn't even ask what procedure they were using..
El David es mi cuñado y el Alejandro mi carnal bro te reconoci en un video anterior k subiste y le comente a mi cuñado y dijo k simon es mi compa aqui jala conmigo haha que chido los videos saludos 👍🏽
Noob question, I know... Why bother starting at a lower amperage and then increase it? Always seemed to work better, for me, starting at a higher amperage and then decreasing it (easier starts).
In the beat? I actually decreased the amps when i started the beat.. it was a little bit too hot, but it worked out pretty well..I always set my machine on 65 but it was a little cold morning and this SA-200 tend to be a little hot in the mornings.. should have put it on 60 amps to start
I don't think so because they have to turn in every film of each weld to the company that hires them, so I don't think they are going to put their jobs on the line just for a bad weld.. just think about it.. imagine a bad weld blows up, they are going investigate who did that bad weld and also who X-ray that weld.. that's the whole point of X-ray, to prove that every weld is going to hold that pressure
@@gustavojr841 I was thinking more of flunking a good weld with the hope of taking more pictures and making more money. Like a factory where they think more will attempt the test if they fail a few. I was involved where this was pondered by me and the company I worked for. They wouldn't return the coupon or show the pass or fail. The coupon due to radiation but why not show the fail?

😄👍 man.. here's an example.. My dad is a guitar pro, and for me, looking at him playing is crazy. It is impossible for me😄 I told him the same thing! "You make it look so easy"... everybody has a talent because of so many years of practice.. that's all it is man

What's up Cody!😀 Yes, it should of been around 85.
I enjoyed the behind the scenes...I don't know why ..but during the x-ray I always stress..
Does your pancake lens flash when you grind?
Yes, a little bit.. I have the sensitivity set on 0, so it gives me a little chance to see while grinding
I use to Weld for a livin...Then My Dumb ass got Adventurous and Decided to become a Driller 😂 keep welding my Brothers 💪trust me
Sun in your eyes get that pipeline cloud up especially on a Re-qual…… this an API 1104 re-qual ?
Man, the sun fills good in winter.. that morning was cold, and i rather have my hands flexible and not freezing where you can't move them, lol! Anyway its all good 😉 On the X-rays procedure? not sure, I didn't even ask what procedure they were using..

@@gustavojr841 Fair enough. Thanks for the reply.
Thank you for expressing your thoughts😉👍

I know of three guys who didn't pass 😬

Thats me 😃 "xray"
Estodo carnal!! 😃👍 muchas gracias de nuevo!!
@@gustavojr841 A usted gracias por la oportunidad carnal 💪🏻💯 Badass welds !
Ever suspect the x ray guys of cheating ?
I don't think so because they have to turn in every film of each weld to the company that hires them, so I don't think they are going to put their jobs on the line just for a bad weld.. just think about it.. imagine a bad weld blows up, they are going investigate who did that bad weld and also who X-ray that weld.. that's the whole point of X-ray, to prove that every weld is going to hold that pressure

How much you pay the new guy 😮 that to much 😂😂
😂😂😂
Y’all need any helpers?
We do need helpers man! But this company doesn't let us hire any
They sale a flip lens pancack I have one works great
Seen those, they ay great when you have to grind! Just flip it and grind without turn dark while you grind
