Awesome, I just did a weld test today on some intercooler piping and I should've watched this before hand. 😅 I did fine, but for customer parts I definitely need to make sure everything is super clean and I'm fully penetrating.
Thank you very much for the info. Looks like they were working really well for you so I will give them a try. Thanks again and keep up the great content!
Love your videos man. Have you played with the ep and en function yet? I played with mine a little I think it cane shipped with a certain amperage for both. What would you change those settings for? Thin or thicker?
Old video, but i got a tip from somewhere that says just keep extra tungstens preground on the table, and sharpen them in batches. So you dont need to stop and grind if you dip.
What settings were you running? Great video and I wish my great beads looked like your mediocre ones lol. Keep putting out the great content, I enjoy watching and learning.
Glenn Coates 120 amps (with foot pedal), 60hz, 68 negative balance, #8 gas lens 20cfh, and 1/16th 5356 wire. Pretty basic settings you can play around with what works for you. Just get the material good and clean and keep torch angle to a minimum.
6SpeedFab Thanks for taking the time to tell us beginners about your settings. For me dialing in is the hardest part for me. Great cadence and delivery in your video.
sounds like your filler rod is melting before the puddle and causing it to string, double check your settings, consumables and mats for the application and make sure you have a tight ark and your not angling your torch too far to your filler or too big of a gap, also food for thought, more HZ = tighter puddle, less = a bigger puddle. I'm still a beginner myself so i may be wrong on some of this and someone will come along and set me straight and give you better advice, but i hope this helps!
Me too. Just ordered one. 210 ext. 255 seemed a little too much amperage for what I like doing. Theres always helium if not. My tweco water cooler will be here tomm. This guy looks like hes got the HTP. nice machine as well. He acts like hes been a production tig welder for awhile, I admire him, tho he does few things lil different than most. Cant believe how many people thumbs downed him, hatin' assholes. Bet they're not on UA-cam showcasing THEIR skills, or LACK OF prolly
@@belloautomotive1522 nice!!!, im new to tigging, and im trying to do my cold side on my turbo with aluminum... seems i do alot better with 1/16 but not sure if its what i should be using.
Could of had that done in half the time if you didnt have to mess with the vice. Build a small rotary table even if its not powered it holds in one position and clamped once same spot and dont weld near can of brake cleaner the tip dip happens to all of us good work tho
shaun schollaert thanks for watching. I do have a drill powered weld positioner I use in a some of my earlier videos. With the nature of my work being a lot of one off parts, I find it quicker to weld in the clamp then get the turn table out, set it up and secure the part on it, it takes longer than to just weld in the clamp.
The only thing I can see wrong with the vice is it's resting on smooth stainless and it slipped as he put a little pressure on it with his wrist. Secure the vice and problem solved! Good video though.
@@belloautomotive1522 not angry at all, and sorry for not crawling up your arse saying your video is "awesome" when it's absolutely not, thanks for biting though! Don't make a how to video when you clearly don't how how to then get with the smart arse comments hen someone called you out on it.

Nice prep work
Awesome bro! check that rod angle, lower the feed hand.
What settings you use in your welder?
Can you show what the inside looks like? Does it penetrate all the way?
Hey man what brand vice is that? I need one of those but all the ones I find are painted.
What are your settings at on the welder?
where did you get that vise? Thanks
Lol I've been tig welding aluminum for nearly 30 years and I've never seen anyone bring soap into this..lmao

Half a pack at a time when you're just starting 🤣
You don’t want it to fully bleed through an penetrate on intercooler piping crests a blocky flow unless you grind down the inside every time
I was thinking fusing tig would be the best way if done proper
What gloves are those ?
Nice man
How come no one talks about the machine setup and the settings for welding these?
what about if do you work for a company.
do you go to wash all the aluminum to be welded....?
zenteno5p depends on the situation. If I was getting paid by the hour then yes I would. If I was getting paid by the part I wouldn’t.

What kind of welder do you have ?? I’m. A noob and looking to buy my first welder .

6SpeedFab I got my self a everlast welder 👨🏭
So how do you stop the filler rod like sticking to the puddle and creating a string of shit from the filler? I keep having this problem

I figured it out was the cup and collet I had was giving inadequate gas coverage and wasn't working properly getting good welds now tho 👌
Yow mi general mi want to knw sum more about tig
I want to try my hand at making some intercooler piping with my everlast tig welder.

Wow. You were doing so well until about 3 dabs in....
Bram Biesiekierski can’t be perfect all the time
Scrape the rods with a 3face scrapper.. then acetone
What size tungsten and rod were u using??
fast cash 3/32 tungsten and 1/16th rod
@@belloautomotive1522 nice!!!, im new to tigging, and im trying to do my cold side on my turbo with aluminum... seems i do alot better with 1/16 but not sure if its what i should be using.
fast cash never had a problem with it
What kind of tungsten do you use?
You're not a welder if you didn't squint the first time he struck an arc in the camera frame 🤣

Got a link to your video of you doing it properly?

Good idea welding next to that can of brake cleaner💣

Please google brake clean and welding. It creates a deadly gas.
David Bialas this is non chlorinated brake clean. Ok to clean with
you should deff make that be known, someone is going to watch this video and use the wrong brake clean.
David Bialas I mention it in a few of my videos. Can’t mention it every time
yes you can and you should
He said it when he used it in this video...
