      You get around seasons guys that will argue and fight tooth and nail about something they’ve done and won’t even listen to a different perspective and try to understand why someone addresses something in a different manner, simply because that’s th way they be always done it and if it’s not broke why reinvent the yada yada yada.
      Hats off to people who mastered their trade but are open for another point of brow those are the people who further the cause and blaze mew frontiers.

    • @thisdj83
      @thisdj83 3 роки тому +2

      It's more helpful to those not trying to break the bank or don't already own machinist equipment. There is a pipe mounted bevel machine that uses these type of bits to create a bevel on pipe but again, it's expensive. I think these bits are great for the helper that can't seem to make a bevel the way the welder wants. Hand him one of these and it will be very helpful.

    • @davidquirk8097
      @davidquirk8097 3 роки тому

      Give the guy a break, he's using the tool for the first time and feeling his way, it's going to be slow at first. A lathe is a better way as long as the part can be chucked ok but I think for field jobs this is a good idea.

    What a classy guy - both of 'em! Hoping to go to a training with Bob coming up and I agree with so many of the commenters here, it's great to see someone who is seasoned, experienced and 'expert' in a field, so passionate about the processes of doing things RIGHT, and yet can be humble enough to accept he has things to learn. There are always new tricks for old dogs (no offense, Bob!), but the old dog has to be willing to learn. Bob shows that he is, and I hope I can always do the same!

    Weld.com is freaking amazing. I've learned SO much watching their videos.
    That said, this ad disguised as a video does have 2 great bits of advice.
    1, pull a flap, push a rock
    2. When flushing a weld, send the sparks directly parallel to the direction of the weld. Think of the weld as a straight line that extends off into the next room thats in a safe direction, then send the sparks in that direction.
