Just attempted my very first TIG welds, they definitely don’t look like his welds. Much harder than it looks. Good video, given me a few things to try.
TIG is one of those things that there's no replacement for time in the welding chair.
My man, Vin out here just teaching the boys how it’s done. Great video.
Appreciate it!
All metals are TIG weldable except zinc which is the plating used on galvanized steel. The short list: steel, aluminum, stainless, copper, brass and titanium. And you can only use Argon or a mix of Argon/Helium for TIG welding. Argon/CO2 is only for MIG.
Love these tutorial type videos, I have done all the other types of welding but would like to try TIG. Thanks for showing us this.
Thanks for watching!
this is probably one of the best and most informative videos out there. Great job guys
Thanks for the comment, we love hearing that!
Great tutorial on TIG welding. Question for you....I head you achieve a better arc when the tip of the tungsten is ground parallel with the rod compared to perpendicular as you did it on the hand held grinder. The idea being that you're keeping the lines of the tungsten straight rather than curved which can throw off the arc....Is this a true concept or just personal preference?
We get our best results when using one of the Tungsten Grinders like the TG2000

Great job brother, you deliver the information straightforward. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
have you guys ever thought of making a pen style torch?
Hmmm we'll have to pass that along to the R&D dept. and see what they think!
Thanks for another great video Eastwood. I look forward to these
Glad you like them!
extremely well presented. thank you

Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video.
Thank you very much!
Good
Show the welders how to backup an aluminum TIG weld. You need a slot in the metal for the aluminum to sink into.
What was the thickness of the metal?And what size tugsten and filler rod was used?
In this video we weld 1/8" coupons. Tungsten is 1/16" and filler rod is 1/16" or 3/32" - you can reference the chart on the top or inside of your welder for starting settings.
@@eastwoodco thank you
One comment I have is you didn't hold your torch vertical while welding. I'm assuming it's because you can't see the puddle if you do. Other than that it was an excellent video. Thanks.
At time 28:30 you said you were goin to show fusion welding without filler, But at time 29:30 you demenstrated tig with filler.
He's demonstrating a fusion weld at 29:30 while discussing how you WOULD add a filler rod. Notice you don't see the filler rod in the weld puddle like you do at 30:29
