If anyone deserves that million subscriber mark it’s this guy. He’s an invaluable resource to welders of any experience level. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into these videos sharing your years of experience.
I'm learning to stick weld with the "buzz box" arc welder & I have not yet seen that "eye" in the puddle. I noticed it chasing your puddle here in the wire feed video. What does this "eye" do & why do I need to watch for it? I also wannuh learn MIG & TIG welding. Thankya fornsharing your video😃👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@truckerray7533 Do you mean that circular bit near the end of the puddle? That's what we call "glass", it's a silica deposit, only present in MIG welding. For stick, what you want to look for is the separation from the molten puddle to the slag freezing over top of it behind it. This is easier for some rods and harder for others. For example, 7018 has very clearly visible slag and puddle separation, where a 6013 is a bit harder to see as clearly. Hope this can help you out!
@@Delta0429 Yes. . . .and thankya! my brother has said "watch for the eye" but never exactly explained was to why! If there's a "separation" between the two, then a guy is moving to fast on the bead???
I had an old argon cylinder on my TIG and was having all sorts of shielding problems. Dad said I should roll it across the shop floor and hook it back up before giving up and getting a new cylinder. You better believe it worked and I had no trouble after that until the cylinder was empty.
I've welding a little over 20 yrs and I gotta say everytime I watch your videos I always learn something New! I even use something of your tips and tricks methods on welding jobs that were hiring for mig welders and Got Hired on the spot! And I still watch your videos cause there's always New things I can still learn from your videos so much Aloha from Hawaii for sharing your knowledge for welder's like me. Mahalo!
I done some welding today and just like usual I thought of you, the arc shots and the tips you've given us over the years. Always flicking back on old videos for information. Absolute quality. Thankyou Jodie
The number one tip in this video Jodi is puddle manipulation! If you’re not working the puddle on short circuit mig, you will get cold lap. Can’t stress that enough. Great video.
I have watched your welding videos for a long long time. I have learned a lot from you sharing your advice. I could always weld fairly good but a few years back my welding improved 10 fold with something you had said that anyone can follow. It was when you said about cleaning your metal before welding it. It was the best advice that helped me improve the holding power of a weld. Thank you for all of your tips and advice over the years.
Another excellent video. I'm a young 67 and new to welding...mostly vehicle modifications and things around the property. The tips I've learned from your channel are invaluable. I can't thank you enough.
I used to watch your videos back in 2014 and helped me a lot to sharpened my welding skills... A lot has changed since then. I own my small trucking company and do my own welding at my shop/ truck yard, I decided to come back to your channel and take a look at what has changed.. Your videos do change people's lives. Thanks.
Jodie, You're the main reason I have gotten back into the game. Between your videos and podcast I've become reinvigorated and re-started this great hobby. Thanks again and best of luck!!
Hello, my respected sir, I am Majid from Iraq... I offer you the greatest thanks befitting your respected standing. I learned a lot from you... When they ask me how I learned this beautiful welder, I tell them from this generous man that I learned everything, and I mean you... and I always pray May God make you in the best condition... I love you, thank you, esteemed sir
Here's to a soon to be Million subscribers Sir Jodie! I know i ain't saying anything different from what many of these folks already have, but thank you for doing what you do. I was in welding school for 2 years doing a 4 hour class a week to get my certs and sometimes, even though i had an amazing instructor, that just wasn't enough guidance. Thanks to the time you took to teach us, i'm AWS certified in stick, mig, flux cored, tig, 6g tig and stick, and now i'm getting my NAVSEA certs for naval vessels. Keep on burning!
I want to thank you. I went out and got me the hobart handler. I been learning to weld from your videos. Your very smart and have alot of knowledge. Every time I'm about to weld I watch your videos and it helps me alot with my work.
Been watching you for years. Been subscribed a long time. Proud to be part of helping you reach that Million. You deserve it. Your videos alone have taught me so much
Come on everybody lets push Jody over 1 million sub's He has taught a lot of us to weld over the decade or so. Thank You Jody !!! The welding I have learned here has brought me many many hours of enjoyment in welding and several completed projects worth the enjoyment. much appreciated.
I really appreciate that there are people out there like you in the world who are passing on your skills and teaching the world. I'm 59 and I'm a novice welder and I really appreciate all the tips that you helped me utilize & learn.
Damn Jodie, I could have sworn I subscribed years ago, but it showed me unsubscribed.. corrected the error of my ways! Hit that million, man, you deserve it more than most out here!
Best welding video's on the you tube, bar none!! I would not be the welder I am today without your input, Jody! Thank you for what you have given me and others.
Thank you so much! About to stitch my truck bumper together out of 3/16 and this couldnt have come at a better time. Will be practicing with endless coupons to finess this project.
Jody my bro, I cannot begin to describe how helpful your channel has been for me. I speak for all welders when I say you’re a treasure to the welding community. Keep up the good work, you deserve 1Mil subscribers. 💪🏻💪🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I am in a habit of always grinding mill scale, but I didn't realize it was such a problem for short circuit MIG. This channel is invaluable for hobbyists.
Hey Jodi! Many many thanks for the tips and tricks, lessons, you was the inspiration to start a welding career. Love all of your videos. Wish you the best, and greetings from Slovakia!
Been watching and learning for a long time. Finally hit the subscribe today. Hopefully you can get something after giving so much. Please everybody, subscribe. This man deserves it!! Thank you Jodi!
You got a hand for sure. I've been welding off and on since I'm 19. I used to be able to lay dime's with a mig welder. I'm a bit out of practice and watching your videos is going to help me immensely! Thank you!
Thank you for the excellent videos. I've been mig welding on pipe (fire protection piping) for 30 plus years. I've used some of your techniques at work. Thank you again sir.
I honestly appreciate you sharing your skills. I got my 1st mig and even got a Tig to learn because seeing them Tig skills you have gave me motivation to learn it. Thank you
I've been subscribed for years. Congrats on the 1 Million mark! You deserve it. 5:25 actually sounds like bacon frying. Not sorta, but exactly like real bacon frying
Jody you always go above and beyond! I graduated welding school in 1994 and I learn something from every video! Thanks for all you do. Stay safe and God bless
I fabricate for my own needs and occasionally for friends sometimes fairly elaborate projects. My problem is that it's always 2 to 3 years in between welding tasks and my skills do not stay sharp so I always return here just to "grease the wheels" so to speak and soon have my technique back. Always happy to subscribe to help channels like this one that do so much to help us diy'rs. Cheers
It's always great when you put out videos Jodi all the good tips and tricks that you give it's what encourage me to teach myself how to TIG weld. Speaking of TIG welding really really like to see you kick it old school and put four tig welders together and run them against each other and see how they all perform from the 2022 lineup of welders available out there today I know you did it whatever last Lincoln Miller I can't remember the other one back in 2015. It'd be kind of cool to see you pick up a primeweld one of the newer Everlast 325 EXT millermatic 220 and in Eastwood tig 200 I think that would be a great running score to see what's what out there on the market. Or even just get a sub $1,000 welders and put them all together.
I had 4 people watching me weld today. My assistant was was going over the the cuts and grinds with a flapdisc. My machine was running like pure garbage, and everyone was wondering why I just wasn't burning it in. Well the fit up wasn't good, the welder was being powered off of a generator that wasn't producing clean power, and the zinc rich paint/primer wasn't removed far enough from the weld zone. Being onsite welding in a unique space we just didn't have all the normal resources at hand initially. Once we got hooked up to consistent power, got the surfaces prepped, and got the fit up sorted the weld was uneventful, and pretty. The majority of a quality weld happens before the arc is struck.
Man I love these mig videos. If you we're to put together a " cheat sheet " with metal type, thickness, type of joint, voltage and wire speed I'd buy one. Thanks for the tips.
WOW! I've been watching your videos for years, and have learned a ton :) I'm excited you are almost at 1 million subs! Best welding teacher on YT (Bob is a close second!!!) lol
MIG welder in my area where I work is not used a lot , i use TIG 99% of the time and MIG welder has an argon mix tank that sits in one spot forever. The MIG is usually used for the wire feeder , using it as cold feed for the TIG and only gets hooked up occasionally for a little MIG welding. Next time I'm going to weld something really important with the MIG I'm going to remember and consider laying the tank on the floor and mix it up a bit.
I wish I could hit that “Like” button to get you to a Million subscribers, Jody! You deserve the recognition! Thanks for the “rolling your cylinder” trick! I have a few mixed gas cylinders that I haven’t used in years… I’ll definitely roll them before using them again! Thanks for all your highly informative knowledge! 👍
Jody I've been welding off and on for 20 years and have been watching you for at least half that time, particularly in the last 3 years since I really got back into it, but wasn't subscribed yet. What the hell, let's fix that.
Great video Jodi. Your TIG videos are great, but I only have a MIG welder. I always get a little more excited when I see MIG content. Good look with the 1 million goal!
Perhaps you can help me here, I was welding together some angle iron to help stiffen the deck of a cheap trailer with a wire mesh floor. 1/8" material on the trailer, 1/8" material being added, Miller 211 .030 and .035 wire (ran out of one, had the other) heat set at 6/ 1/8" (actual voltage is not listed on the machine) and wire feed is set to 50. I was having a problem with the .030 when doing uphill welds 2" inches long that the material would start to burn through. So, I tried doing them downhill and the welds seemed to run fine, material was wetting out on both edges, not too much excess weld build up- which has been my biggest problem with learning to use the mig machine; I run across the middle and wet the edges with a longer pause to the edges than the middle. Reading forums on Reddit, the people there say to never run downhill with Mig welding. This has me wondering if I have ruined the integrity of my welds and possibly the trailer may lose parts later because of my welds. Once I switched to the .035 wire, I did not have any burn out problems and was fine going uphill and after reading those forums, did the remainder of the welding that way. Do you have any advice? Thanks for the videos.
I’m a refrigeration tech. As a liquid, the “gases” stay mixed. But as a gas, they separate. That’s why mixed gases like 410a/404a etc are charged into the system with the bottle upside down.. as a liquid. If you pull from the top of the bottle, you get the separate gases one at a time so to speak
Jody Thanks Brother👍🏼 It’s really good to know regarding stirring the C25 Cyl especially for some of us hobbiests that may only light up the old MIG machine every so often or just longer durations between projects. Cylinder Safety is one of the most important things in welding processes due to the types and mixtures of different gases under extreme pressure. Thanks again and be safe 😎
I subscribed so I hope you get 1,000,000 subscribers. Welding tip : Z's side to side are better than U's because going back over where you have already gone in the U shape as you did at the beginning of the video as compared to the Z side to side that doesn't go back over where you have already been lessens if not totally eliminates the possibility of cold lap in the weld bead. Randall M. Rueff - Hobart Institute of Welding Technology (Class of 1992-93). Good day & God Bless...
Thanks for the cylinder rolling tip. My cylinders sit for a long time between uses. I actually work offshore and am responsible for a gas chromatograph that uses a calibration gas with a very low concentration of H2S. When we get towards the end of the bottle we always have H2S issues. I think this anecdotally bears out your bottle rolling analysis.
Great puddle filming most videos don't show! Tip stay ahead is one tip I haven't heard before. Push 305 ipm .025 18v on 16 ga, Pull 330 ipm .030 19v on 11 ga, Pull 195 ipm .035 18.6v on 3/16 ga, Fast Pull 335 ipm .035 21v on 1/4 ga, Fast Pull 342 ipm .035 19.5v on 3/16 welding 1/4 ga,
Nice to see some more quality welds from Jody. As for technique with mig short circuit I use the Bob Moffat technique of rocking back and forth slightly rather than the semi circles but what ever method you use, just find one that you can do the best.
Jody I just set up my ability to subscribe. You are at the top of my list. Thanks for your excellent videos. Many of them helped me be a better amateur art welder. Keep going to 2mill
Long time viewer, first time commenting. When I watch your welds I can see everything happening perfectly. I have very poor vision and I really struggle to produce nice welds because I just can’t make out the puddle and base material as well as I should. I try to avoid light behind me and I’ve tried every shade. I wondered if you had any advice?? I have perfectly corrected vision in my left eye but the right eye is weak. This really makes depth perception tough.
If anyone deserves that million subscriber mark it’s this guy. He’s an invaluable resource to welders of any experience level. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into these videos sharing your years of experience.

I’ve been welding for around 10 years now and I still learn new things from you, thanks for all the awesome videos and knowledge you pass down to us!
I also got a good chuckle out of that “bacon sizzling” sound bite at 5:25 😄
Same here, 10 years in business and still learning..
Jodie, You're the main reason I have gotten back into the game. Between your videos and podcast I've become reinvigorated and re-started this great hobby. Thanks again and best of luck!!
Excellent idea to give the welding info/specs before each weld.
lol Love the bacon cooking soundbite in the middle of the one weld. Always glad to see new videos. They are great for refreshers.

I had 4 people watching me weld today. My assistant was was going over the the cuts and grinds with a flapdisc. My machine was running like pure garbage, and everyone was wondering why I just wasn't burning it in.

Being onsite welding in a unique space we just didn't have all the normal resources at hand initially. Once we got hooked up to consistent power, got the surfaces prepped, and got the fit up sorted the weld was uneventful, and pretty.
The majority of a quality weld happens before the arc is struck.
I recommend this channel to others. Your comparisons, explanations and visuals are great. Thanks!

Let’s get JODY to a cool Million! ⭐️🙏⭐️
Thank you JODY! Always my “GO TO” Encyclopedia, Teacher, and Mentor!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excellent video, clear, easy to understand advice for an amateur welder. Thanks!
Thanks for all you do for the welding community, your videos are a go to when I have issues🤗😎😎🤗
Always fantastic information! Congrats on getting close to a million.
Nice Tutorial helps me to remember good old fashioned proper Welds with Mig Machines. Thank You

Jody I just set up my ability to subscribe. You are at the top of my list. Thanks for your excellent videos. Many of them helped me be a better amateur art welder. Keep going to 2mill
Nice to see you again dear teacher.
Long time viewer, first time commenting. When I watch your welds I can see everything happening perfectly. I have very poor vision and I really struggle to produce nice welds because I just can’t make out the puddle and base material as well as I should. I try to avoid light behind me and I’ve tried every shade. I wondered if you had any advice?? I have perfectly corrected vision in my left eye but the right eye is weak. This really makes depth perception tough.
