    Really loving having the extra commentary to your videos. For me the why is just as important as the how. Thanks

    Thank you so much for adding voice to your videos! I have followed you for years and purchased your welding class and it transformed my aluminum welding skills to new heights! Love the added voice though very much! You are an excellent teacher.😊👍

    The commentary is great because it clarifies things so well, but it’s odd because we all got so used to you not speaking that it’s almost like a different channel now. You were like the Stig of welding haha. It’s all good either way brother!

    As an aircraft mechanic, for my brake I have the fingers still somewhat sharp but have pre-bent different thickness pieces of aluminum that fit over the fingers to give the proper bend radius for a given thickness of material. That way you can still bend thin sheet relatively tight but thicker material with the thicker cover piece can be a larger bend.

    This was awesome just as all of your other videos. The fact that there is commentary in addition to the satisfaction of watching your craftsmanship, was a big bonus. Love that addition. Hopefully it continues in videos where you see fit. 👌Thank you!

    I’m still tripping out over hearing you talk on your videos. For so long I’ve wondered who the masked man was? The added information and explanation is very helpful. I’ve always loved your channel, and I admire your talent. Keep up the great work!

    My personal belief is that Aaron has narrated every one of his videos, but forgot to add the voice over before uploading them... for years.

    I've been "away" from your channel for a while, so maybe it's not new. I appreciate the narration, I think videos like these gain a lot from you explaining as you go.

    Aaron, it is amazing how much knowledge you have shared in all your videos. I am even more stoked that you are explaining (narrating) what and why you are doing certain steps in the process. I personally feel speaking your thoughts has a better impact on learning, but that might just be me. Keep the tungsten glowing and the dimes a stackin.

    So, this comment is 100% unsolicited. The tig button is an excellent investment. I've had it now for maybe 4 yrs and it helps make tig enjoyable by making it easier to position yourself. Went through a few pedals, each smaller than the previous one, tried the various remotes but the button rocks. I coupled it with my 200 Dynasty DX, and whenever I get something new in the next year, the button will be moving over, or I'll get another which is more likely.

    Those things take a ton of tedious work, just like making headers. I can understand why you don’t like making them anymore. Especially when you can buy a mass produced intake and port it. Although that can suck too. Either way, there is a reason they are so expensive. Thanks for the tips. 👍🏻

    Great video! The green flame looked like 5356 filler. Of course if this was a real and complete intake some guys might have a concern with hot cracking in this application and this intake is likely to see service temps over 150F. So maybe a filler with less than 3% magnesium could be the weapon of choice if this was a functional part….

    Sounds like a dynasty by Miller just a guess never used one, first time seeing your videos nice job and I’ve been TIG welding right at 40 years. Back in the early 80’s we had to put tick alum. on fire bricks preheat and start welding I love new inverter technology

    • @MikeYurbasovich
      @MikeYurbasovich Рік тому +1

    Timely video. Working on a intake myself at the moment. What kind of/size torch are you using? I'm considering picking up a water cooled torch. Don't think my ck17 can really handle the amperages I need to tie into the 1/2 baseplates.
