    I haven't even fitted one pipe yet and as an aspiring welder this video is giving me knowledge I can build off of. Big thanks and greatly appreciated from

    Fitting 101: question everything, double check everything else - measure before the tack, measure again after the tack, then move on as necessary. Use warping to your advantage, especially on stainless....
    A bad welder needs a good fit, a good welder deserves a good fit.
    If you fit for yourselves, or especially if you fit for someone else -- make it count, make it precise.
    80% of any weld is preparation.

    Years ago we use to fit pipe with a welder and a fitter .Now the welder fits and welds the pipe. I think they call it down sizing?

    • @TheGmanamaya
      @TheGmanamaya 7 років тому +1

      depends on job what they are asking for , you have blue prints on the field and in those prints it states an says what process, and how the pipe needs to be welded. this CAN be welded with 6010ROOT or even Mig root, it will all depend on what you test for on job and what the prints request for.

    Brown cylinders.? Acetylene? Or is it different colour coding in the US of A ?

    • @satamanschmidt3428
      @satamanschmidt3428 7 років тому +1

      Here that's fairly common for Argon. At least for the gas supplier that I use which is Praxair. I don't think there really is an official color code except for oxygen which seems to always be painted green.

    • @TheGmanamaya
      @TheGmanamaya 7 років тому

      agreed and Acetylene for red, many of mixed gas are brown or even full argon can be green or brown. I have never heard of color coding cylinders . yah and 02 green mostly.

    • @zanpekosak2383

    • @salzamora6463

    • @bobmoffatt4133
      @bobmoffatt4133 7 років тому

      Sal Zamora Doesn't close much at all with tig. How can it collapse 3 tacks on top? How do you tie in to tacks at 3 and 9? Grind?

    • @salzamora6463
      @salzamora6463 7 років тому

      Bob Moffatt Thanks. I was just wondering as I had not tried that before. And yes, i have to feather the edges of those tacks a bit. It is usually ok with a 1/8 grinding wheel on a 5/32 or 3/16 gap and a knife edge on bevel. I don't like a landing but some people do. Either way works if you break down that edge. Unless you have a specific weld procedure to follow.

    • @heavymetalworks6375
      @heavymetalworks6375 7 років тому

      That sounds so weird not going to 6 o clock from starting at the 12 o clock. I dont see it staying after tacking at 10 or 2 from 12 o clock. never seen that craziness haha

      @TheKajunkat 7 років тому +2

      Orbital welders are a pain to set up and not as fast as manual when you consider the entire time to set up and weld. they also require clearance for the head to rotate which is not always available. They are fantastic for making the exact same weld time after time on medium to large piping. The repeat ability and control can't be matched by a human operator but a human is much more flexible to conditions.

      Philadelphia Construction Engineering , I think you're wrong. The camera angle makes it look off. if you've ever looked at a spirit level at an angle you'd notice that it looks off when its in fact level. Plus theres usually a 1/16" to 1/8 +or- tolerance.

      it is within toleration, in the bubble just off a C(_)Nt hair, you can also pull it plum with a tack on opposite side to have it perfect in the bubble.
