My videos are recorded at working sites in various locations and welding positions.
90% of my welding projects in videos are x-rayed, and if you like to see hands-on projects, welcome!

Great tutorial and perfect welding!! I think one can be assured that if he can do freehand without issues, he knows he has come long way! Love the arc shots and clarity of the video, your skills are as always fascinating and impeccable! 👍🏽
Thank you my friend, I appreciate your support, and I’m happy to hear that my videos are helpful!🙏👍
❤
Thank you very much for this video! I struggled a lot previously with freehand and I appreciate the efforts you put into creating these videos! Amazingly helpful!!👏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Really nice job!!
Thanks a lot!
I just found this channel and subscribed immediately. Thanks for the great arc shots and good editing.
Happy to hear that, and welcome 👍
You're a good teacher
Thanks bud I appreciate that 👍
free hands is very tricky but if its better i will try to exercise it very well. thank you for your excellent video.❤
I am from iran. I love people's like you. You are good master 😊
Thanks man I want all your videos I star training Tig for the 3rd days I finally have a accepted root pass
Keep it up 👍
Great job! That root was very consistent!
Thank you!
Great tips brother!! You are the boss!!! 👍🏽🙌🏽
I appreciate that my brother!👍
Awesome job, true professional. Very good instructional video. Would love to be there and learn from the best that I have seen.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@X3MTIG Will you upload some 6010 root pipe welding one day?
Can you show and give tips on how to feed the rod and keep in in the puddle. I'm having a hard time doing that. Thanks.
Will do
Same problem for me also sir
Good request 👍
Rest it on the upcoming tack while you feed into puddle
@@X3MTIG please make this video asap !
Tactics showed me how to do it. Skills showed me how it's done. Thanks brother for taking your time to make these vids👊💞
Thanks
Top notch tutorial! The arc shots, the explanations, the welding itself... quailty stuff👌
Thanks for making these videos, greetings from Slovakia.
Thank you brother, I appreciate that 👍
Another excellent video, thanks for all the effort. 🙏
I asked previously if it is possible to zoom out, to see your hand position and how you feed the rod. You nail it exactly around the 8th minute. 🔨 🔥🔥🔥
There are many Freehand Root videos on Tube, most of those speed up during the process and astonishing end results. Maybe even cheated and done on the positioner? 🤔😃
Those videos frankly confused me more instead.
I find your videos better, always on point and VERY helpful. Again thanks for sharing.
Hey my friend, I’m glad you like it. I’m not sure about other UA-cam video creators, but it’s easy to see if someone is cheating by looking for the root layout pattern!
Another great video 💪🏻 it’s always good if you can freehand because not always you can walk the torch , just wondering if you could do a free hand cap video bro keep up the good work you really have the best TIG channel out there 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks bud, I already did something similar in my old videos, check it out it might help you! 👍
Perfection of the channel!! For me the best educational channel for tig on UA-cam!! 🥰
Wow, thank you!❤️👍
I'm an amazing welder. Thank you. 🙏
You are very welcome
ya make it look SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy... been watching your videos to get the freehand technique down. I was taught laywire... been out of it a lil while and now, 50% of the time, the bottom is flat as a pancake... By code it is acceptable, However, i want more reinforcement. last thing i want is suck back on the hot pass. just got tig fingers to help as well. so now ill be doing 5/32 gap with 1/8 wire. had a bunch of coupons tqcked up with 1/8 gap and tried 3/32 wire... gotta long way to go... lol shaky.
You’ll get there bud, just burn, burn, and burn that rod 👍😉
@@X3MTIG its coming together... like i tell all the apprentices, Michael Jordan DID NOT become the way he was over night... practice practice practice... Now, are you having the tungsten straight in, aiming at center of pipe when "walking" the root?
@@glennroberts9453 kind of, angle and inclination always changes, but generally, yeah in the centre! I’ll show it to you tomorrow 😉
Exelente aplicación y buena técnica
This guy knows how to handle his Buisness👍
Thanks bro!😎
Building very nice route
Thanks for your tips brother
Np bud 👍

You are a great teacher, I like the fact that you explain everything well. Great work.....
Nice welding
Nice tutorial, very good clean the work face
Thank you! Cheers!
So beautiful
❤
👍👍👍
We have to learn from you sir tig welding
Deal!
@@X3MTIG ok
I'm fine doing the 9-12 and 3-12 but I just can't get comfortable with 6-9 and more so 6-3, stiffing up and shaky hand get me big time
If I don't grind start-stops, only remelt it, they can see on X-ray what? Could you make video about X-ray faults and how to fix that?
I don’t think they could see it! If you fused them good and you know what you doing, should be fine!
Nice work . I know you buffed the root before the hot pass , my question is do you ever do a light grind after you do the Root Pass ?
Hey bud, yes of course, usually if I’m in tight spots, and had to do stop start more than usual!
Could you show me how you welding cap pass freehand on small pipe?
The name of your spacing wedge.
I freehand all the time. i don't know how to walk the cup. probably due to lack of piping in the shop. I keep the torch pointing towards the center of the pipe. I have around 1/8" gap and 3/32 rod and tungsten. I use a thumb control rather than a foot pedal. I keep my rod 1/2 way in and out. anything I could change?
If it’s working for you no need for changes, but if you would like to experiment, try walking the cup at the bottom.
Bro i got a questions iam from germany so my englisch is Not so good do you put a Landing or root face When you Grind your pipe ? Is ist bitter with a face or without? Plz make a video how you prepair your pipe befreundet welding.thx
Hey bro, it all depends what you prefer. Some guys like little bit of land some don’t. I don’t like land on Carbon steel, but I like little bit land on stainless.
I’ve noticed all the ‘crust’ in the root inside… No way to add a back purge of gas? The root looks good but I wonder why there’s no back purge which will make that root last longer and not corrode so soon… Any reason? Thanks, great videos by the way.
It's carbon steel. No purge required on carbon steel.
Pozdrav jos jednom! Znam da cu od tebe dobiti valjan odgovor pa se opet vracam tebi.Trenutno pohadjam tig obuku i instruktor insistira da radim koren sa 3mm zicom free hand,kod proslog instruktora sam koristio zicu 2.4 i savladao je uz "walking".Sad mi problem malo da se naviknem na 3 mm zicu free hand.Kakva je situacija na terenu sto se tice korena i izbora zice,radi li se igde sa 3mm?
Pozdrav, instruktor je u pravu, jako bitno je znat freehand, jer na terenu neces bas puno radit walking the cup. 3 mm zica se puno upotrebljava, a pogotovo na crnim cijevima, ja osobno koristim tu zicu u 99% zavara, a 2.4 mm uglavnom za inox. Tako da slusaj instruktora jer ocito zna sta radi.
@@X3MTIG Veliko hvala!
Can stainless pipe welded this way also?
Yes you can!
It seems like no matter what I do, or how long on amps I go it keyholes like crazy and makes a mess.
Try low and slow, until you dial in!
@@X3MTIG I found laywire on vertical plate adds a lot more material before it keyholes. Now I just need to work on back feeding for pipe
what country are you from? im not sure by the accent
How do you purge for your tacks?
No purge here bud it’s carbon pipe !
I can't walk the cup for shit, free handing cane so natural for me...
What ever is working for you bud, as long as you get job done, and without repairs. 👍
That's crazy your not supporting the torch with your fingers lol your completely freehanding
That’s why they call it freehand, lol… I use fingers sometimes, all depends from the position. 👍
Pozdrav prijatelju ,kako da mi na tom donjem djelu cjevi korjen sto vise izadje tj.da ne bude plitak ?
Ne znam jeli te prijatelj razumeo, ali bash sam to nedavno savladao, tako shto sam poceo da dodajem zicu iznutra. Takozvana Backfeed tehnika. Isto kao na videu negde oko trece minute. Kozistentni pritisak pri dodavanju zice iznutra, garantuje idealni korjen svaki put. Nadam se da ce ti biti od pomoci.
@@morgostas zahvaljujem!🙂
Pozdrav prijatelju, @morgostas je odgovorio umjesto mene i u pravu je!
@@X3MTIG Ahahha a ja se trudim da pishem na Engleski. 🤣 Kako god, odlican je video, za mene bolji od ostalih jer najbitniji detalji se tacno vide. Sada sam za prvi put pre testa za 6G (zelezna cev), pa pazim na sve moguce detalje. Hteo sam da se osiguram da dodajem zicu isto kao i ti, palcem i kaziprsom. Nastavljam da vezbam freehand, zivjeli 👍
Спасибо Бро за работу язык не знаю но очень интересно показываешь 🫱🏻🫲🏼
