Welding Chain Hooks onto a Tractor Bucket!
Вставка

- In this video were going to fire up my ESAB Migmaster 250 and do a simple welding project to practice welding technique, and teach a new welder. This is a simple project that beginners can do and work on their welding skills. These weld on hooks are a great option for people that don't want to purchase the more expensive bolt on hooks. Welding these chain hooks onto your tractor bucket can be super useful to move things around or grab things you otherwise wouldn't be able to carry in the bucket of the tractor.

Nice having hooks on the bucket great job good teacher elliot
They are going to be super helpful
Putting them on a plate would spread the load out more. He done really well for his first time welding great job of you to have patience to let him and show him. He probably be pretty good with some practice on some scrap metal.
I gave him some major props for jumping in head first! He was willing to learn!
I went with Ken's bolt on hooks and also put a plate on the bottom side. My bucket is made just like this one with double walled construction. Drilling then with a half inch pilot point drill bit with oil to keep it cutting correctly. Ken doesn't like using a double walled bucket but this what I wanted. I had some weld on hooks but decided against them. I installed mine where the arms of the loader arms would meet which is where it would be the strongest place in my opinion. The dealership where I bought my tractor was supposed of welded them on but forgot, no big deal. I have seen other people weld them on but first heated them up first with a torch.
That’s interesting having them on the loader arms, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anyone do that
Awesome 😎
Awesome work man. The welds looks really good. I agree, even though I use the cheapest flux core welder known to man kind I’ve learned that welding is 90% prep work and 10% pulling the trigger. I can certainly tell the difference in your welders’ performance because of how much hotter the welds get.
Yeah this is a very capable welder, no doubt about that!
Nice welding. Will hook in the centerbend top of bucket down. My dealer adivised Me to buy the bucket with a 3" black iron pipe welded into the top face. He said it won't bend with a hook in the cenet. That bucket came with Me first New Holland tc 33d back in 2000. Still nice and straight. POR put the finishing touch.
The top of his bucket is square tube, not just a piece of sheet steel, I don’t think it’ll bend, but time will tell
Great job you’re a good teacher! Buuuuuuuusch👍🍻👍
Just doing what I can!
Great video! Caution, I've ruined 2 camera lenses due to sparks from a grinder. They somehow melt in or pit the lense.
I guess that’s what we would classify as “cost of doing business” but I never thought about that. Thanks for the heads up
Another tip would be to pay attention to the sound of the arching. It sounds like hes pulling away too far and the gas cant shield the molten metal from the atmosphere. Its also good practice to clean the metal inbetween welds as well. Welding over soot increases the chances of a dirty weld
Good tips!
Add some hooks to your box blade and use it as a skidding plate for hauling trees out of the bush.
That’s not a bad idea at all!

position your gun so when your welding you actually pull the gun toward you but push the puddle toward you that way you can see where the wire contacts the metal and the pattern you are using is filling your pocket I've been doing that for over 30yrs you'll get alot better has time goes Forget the figure 8 just use backward C or just use a circle pattern or possibly a J pattern .
Thanks for the tips!
What area of NYS are you in? I assume NYS since Don's truck has NY plates. I grew up in Upstate NY. Keep up the good work.
Hi, I’m in western NY. Thanks for watching!
Which is better, to push the bead or draw the bead from behind..
I was always told to push mig
@@EverythingElliott If it has slag you drag.
@@danrose3233 I like that...easy to remember
Low bar or FUBAR LOL MERRY CHRISTMAS.
I set the bar pretty low haha!
That thing is so clean you must be a suburbanite lol.
The tractor is brand new, he just bought it like 2 months ago
@@EverythingElliott hope santa brings dirt to play in
"Only one way" I guess that means I should just go ahead and buy a welder and start practicing 😂
I fully support this financial and educational decision
@@EverythingElliott Then I know what I'm getting myself as a belated Xmas gift! 😂
This is a noncritical item so good to practice on...I would suggest practice on scrap metal. If you are lifting anything substantial with those chain hooks it is now very critical...gravity can be a bitch.
Gravity is actually 9.8 B(itches) per second squared. Good think I like my women like I like my welds...nice and thick
Try pulling the weld instead of pushing the weld.
I was always told to push mig and pull stick
@@EverythingElliott Give it a try. you can see the weld puddle better and it is easier to fill the gaps with penetration of the weld on both pieces of metal.
