Nice welds!
Yes for gasles weld and fluks core weld am i corect that the handle negative and the ground positive is that corect ,because mine is spiting every were ???thanks
Thanks for your to the point videos. I welded years ago and now got me the titanium 125. I was 20 when i welded before and now I’m 74. What a big help having your info for refresher and confidence to start back. Appreciate ya, and look forward to watching more. Thanks again Joe C.
Thanks, never to late to get back into the game!
Good job getting to the point. No fluff or crazy background music. Videos like this you learn better than in class.
I appreciate that!
So true
The 5 min long into videos kill me
Class would show you some grisly pictures of why you should never grind with a cutting wheel.
Couldn't agree more. Great job
Great video and information, one thing I would suggest for any rookies out there is do not ever clean metal with a cutoff wheel like is depicted in this video. The thin disks can flex and explode because of their high rpm. If you need to really take off some material, use a flap disc instead. You can be seriously injured when a cutoff wheel fails, trust me, it’s terrifying.
I agree. Should have shown a flapper disc.
I've had that happen to me lucky I was wearing safety glasses
One stuck in my boot last year in my welding class. Spooked me a bit
im using same disc for cutting and cleaning after welding.. didnt even know there was different kind of disc, ill buy it now thanks for tip 🙏
@@olivernguyen3112 small price to pay for piece of mind. Much easier to use as well 🤙
Let me start off by saying that there is a lot of great advice in this video, and I, like many in the comments here, really appreciate the lack of fluff and/or garbage filler to pad the runtime.
That said, I've been welding for over a decade now, and I take issue with a couple of things that you said here.
First, never use a cut-off wheel to clean up metal. They aren't designed to handle any axial thrust loading, and if you choose to use them instead of the proper grinding wheel, wire wheel, or abrasive flap disc, it will only be a matter of when, not if, you will have one shatter, hurling shards in every direction along the axis of rotation....which brings me to my second concern; PPE, or personal protective equipment. Gloves aren't just for people with soft hands. Anyone welding without gloves and long sleeves is asking to get skin cancer, as welding arcs produce intense light in the UV spectrum, along with visible and infrared. That kind of UV light can and will burn you like a nasty sunburn, both from direct exposure, and indirect exposure such as the reflection from surrounding surfaces, both metallic and otherwise. Trust and believe that you want to wear all the recommended PPE. Safety glasses, ear protection, gloves are the bare minimum for using a grinder, and gloves, a welding jacket, and a self darkening hood is the bare minimum for welding.
Beyond that, great video.
Right on, thanks. I do agree with you. Should not have shown me grinding with a cut off disc.
Im just starting learning this and never thought about the uv rays, thanks
excellent !! that is what i need to know and ONLY you covered it, you can stay for dinner if ya like !
Right on, thanks for the feedback!
Nice welds
Noob here great info thanks
Thanks 👍
Excellent video, concise, no music, no BS, just clear, jargon free, relevant advice delivered confidently and in an accessible and friendly manner. Wish more UA-cam videos were like yours sir. Well played.
Much appreciated!
Great Video. Dude, you help more novice welders than I can imagine. Keep up the great work. No nonsense and straight to the point. Good quality on the vid as well.
Thank you much!
I tried my first welds today...it was a total disaster🤣 First, the puddles that look so big and easy to define on the videos, I can barely see at all. I can't get my wire speed and power matched up even though I was following the charts...it was a fiasco. I did learn that dipping your nozzle in tip jelly really helps keep it clean. I also learned the wire is not hot until you pull the trigger 😲 I learned the metal stays hot a long time after you stop (ouch) and I realized it ain't as easy as the pros make it look. Lots of practice needed. The best achievement of the day...the house didn't catch fire😆
House didn't catch fire! I'd call it a success!
This has to be one of the best welding videos I’ve seen on all of UA-cam. Straight to the point & easy to understand should get anybody up and welding in no time!
Right on, thanks!
yeap, he nailed it to the front door
Good video, well explained and straight to the point! And no bad music in the background! Thanks!
Nice welds! You have been a great help for me on figuring out what I need and what is best on a budget!
Keep it up!
Thanks! You are in the running!
I bought the Titanium Flux-125 a little over a year ago and can confirm it is a great entry level flux core welder. I changed out the grounding clamp, one that Harbor Freight sells (small upgrade). Totally agree that practice with some research will build confidence in hobby welding projects.
Great point!
Ya I got a real similar unit from home depot that was a return pr something I got for $100 century I think is the brand it's made by the red welder company I forget which one that it but it's been great
N my look kk CT

Thanks a bunch.
Right on, thanks!
To the point and no BS! I subbed. Thanks for posting and take care!
