  • TIG Welding Settings and Machine Setup Fabricating Aluminum Battery Box YesWelder CT2050. This week I show you how I built and fabricated an aluminum battery box using some aluminum plate. After its welded then we fit the completed battery box onto the motorcycle and figure out where to weld on tabs and mounting points. Follow along as i show you in detail my setup, settings and polarity using the YesWelder CT2050 on this aluminum diy tig welding project.

    You know why I like your channel? Besides the fact that I enjoy all I learn from you about welding and your various projects, you have a very sincere, humble demeanor that really comes through to your viewers.
    I’ve watched your older videos and I can see how over the years you’ve become more relaxed/natural in front of the camera. I have done a lot of videos myself (between UA-cam and live-streaming) as the VP of a patients rights organization so that’s why I notice things like this about other content creators. You speak clearly, look directly into the camera with a pleasant expression (those things really matter in that it helps the viewer connect with the speaker). You also do a very nice job interacting with your subscribers in the comment section. This all conveys the unspoken message that you enjoy what you’re doing and helps to keep the viewer engaged.
    I know my comment isn’t related to welding (which is why most of us are here), but I just wanted to share with you what I see (coming from someone with a lot of experience who knows first hand, being in front of a camera isn’t the easiest thing at times). I wanted to leave you some feedback in regards to the consistently good job that you do!
    Have a great day Brandon and keep up the good work!

      @CRJ12: If only. I appears that innovation, especially in old technologies like welding are at a standstill in America. Whereas companies like Yeswelder are kicking American butt. I agree with you in principle, but sometimes you just have to breakdown and go with innovation. Maybe that will encourage American companies to get off their collective butts.

      @@BrandonLund you don't want to charge any 12v battery for vehicles or bikes any higher then 14.5 anything higher can damage the cells in the battery or mess up the Chemistry I would get a voltage regulator to help keep it from going so high

      Thanks buddy. I will keep an eye on it. If it fries this battery i will be sure to get a new regulator. Im guessing its letting a little too much through it. I guess you get what you pay for. I think the regulator rectifyer was like 15 bucks and the battery around 13 lol

    You weren’t kidding about the belt sander😂. Why were you running 28cfm of gas? Thought if you are running say a #8 cup you would set your gas at 16cfm

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  2 роки тому

      Im guessing my guage is off or there is a restriction somewhere or something else. You are correct, general rule for gas is 2x the cup size. I use that as a reference but slight wind in the shop, guage variations, how the torch body pieces are milled ect will all impact that figure which is why i use a test piece and set the gas based on that. Im looking for a stable arc with good cleaning action without black specks in the puddle
