I believe this is the 2nd video ive seen on your channel & i enjoy how thorough you are & explaining everything! Im new to welding & want to learn all that i can just because ive always wanted to learn how to do it & make stuff here in my shop! Unless ive missed something, heres a stupid question for ya, Mr. Chris. . . . ."whats the reason for leaving a gap in between the 2 pieces of pipe . . . . why not just butt the 2 pieces together to begin with & start that way?" ive been practicing with an old 1974 lincoln arc welder that belonged to grampa! My dad used it for yrs & yrs & still works great to this day! Would love to have a stinger like you have! How do i get in contact with ya about that? Thanks man for sharing this video & keep doing what your doing👍🏻Im a new subscriber to your channel & made it to the end of the video🙂👍🏻
I’ll make a video for you,bud… That’s not a stupid question. It’s a good question. Your grandpa left you a heck of a welding machine. The welding rod holder/stinger. Website will be up hopefully this week. We’re putting them back into production. You can find them at stubbyrodsaver.com.
I'm Brazilian, I'm a welder, this was the best video I've watched to date about welding with a 6010, congratulations on the dynamics and all the explanation
I welded years ago. Your videos show some "better ways". Older welders taught me a lot, but their methods weren't always the best. My welding phylosophy was to always look for a better way to do things. Todays videos were what I needed back then. Watching you guys weld on camera makes me feel like I'm back on the job again. I loved welding back then and still do. My friend has a welder in his garage, but he's never welded. Now at 75, I'm passing on my skills. We spend a lot of time out there. He's learning a lot and so am I. We both love it.
I've been a TIG hand running mostly food grade stainless since I left welding school about a year and a half ago. I've been looking to get back into stick once I find a machine so this is SUPER helpful. Thanks for sharing your years of experience with us younger guys. I'm sure I speak for a lot of us when I say I really appreciate that. I'm gonna go get to practicing now. Thanks again!
Im a first year apprentace. I am only allowed to run 1/8 6010 and 3/32 7018. I run my cap to flush and run 85 amp and run 2 wide cap beads and 1 thin quick final bead, to keep me covered on undercut if there is any, on sed 80 6in. I find myself strugling with my bottom drooping on both my fill and cap
Thank you. It is what it is. Move to the next one. I really do need to get some fresh rods. It's important to me to show people where it’s really like. I appreciate the kind words, Mr. James
@TaylorWelding congratulations on retiring and being COMFORTABLE in life. I hope to get there myself. I’ve been pipe welding for a gas company in North Carolina for a little over a year and I thank guys like you for you’re input. I never quit learning. I learn everyday and have ALOT of learning to do. Thanks for the videos
thank you for reaching out Zach. I only retired from pipe welding. I still work all the time lol. I just try to do with the rich do. invest in things that pay me to own them.
Chris, I sure enjoyed your video on pipeline welding. I taught welding in a vocational technical school, which was an satisfaction. I learned a lot from your experiences in the welding industry. Keep up what your experiences and knowledge.
Great video man i just started as an aluminum fitter welder last year was a carpenter most of my life an older fellow that works with me says im lucky i didnt weld steel first learning how to set that machine for the different thicknesses and travel directions took a couple months to grasp for a guy like me but now ive taken to it like a duck to water looking forward to maybe trying my hand at steel in the future thanks for the great wisdom and content
Chris, I'm 68 and retired, but you make such good videos that I HAVE to watch them to the end. Sort of late in life to become a welder, but I'm trying. Take care.
I’m starting welding school in the fall and have been SUPER worried about my pipe welding semester… this video eased my nerves a little bit. I think I just found my new favorite channel!
This is the most helpful video I’ve ever seen about pipe welding period! I’m a old man and I’ve set goals for my self and one is to be able to weld pipe. I’m self taught and the one thing all accomplished welder state and thats hood time and more hood time we’ll I also believe in this method. I’m retired and have been since 2014 however I have side hustles hay farming, driving trucks at harvest time and spring time. Just a FYI I will never take a job away from a young person needing to work. In our county they are finally building a trade school and it been needed for years. Welding is one of the programs that going to be taught. It’s my hope that there are other common sense programs that will be taught. Not everyone is college material. Thank you for willingness to share your knowledge. You are more than likely helping more people than you think. Keep up the amazing work of sharing your knowledge.
Great video from an experienced welder used to working in the field. When you’re learning welding in a school environment or even taking the certification tests you’ll be doing it in IDEAL conditions. When you actually go to implement your hard won skills, you’ll find that it ain’t the same. When he says you need to learn to adapt on the fly or weld how the client demands, that’s exactly how it goes so practice the little nuances of bringing your setup back to something more ideal when you find it’s gone all drunken Larry on ya.
My first time coming across your channel. I really appreciate these tips. Who knew Billy Bob Thornton was such a good welder? Seriously, though, keep them coming. That's good stuff.
When you said you "want to show the real stuff". ❤ This is important for the people who want to learn to be great in the future and not just appear great in the present! I appreciate the lengths you go to explain each detail in your own way!
I'm a tree surgeon by trade, but we are very hard on equipment, grew up welding pulpwood racks with my dad. Thanks for what you do, not just the welding stuff, the rest of it too .
This is by far the best video on downhill pipe welding I've watched and I've been watching nothing but these kinds of videos all weekend in preperation for my first weld test. Thank you.
As I always tell the inspectors, there’s no code for ugly😂! Great information here kid’s watch listen and learn especially when there’s two welders coming in on the bottom it gets really hot and it can go south real quick!! Your a great teacher!!
Welding is the one occupation where you are never as good as you will be. I can see myself getting better and that has not changed over the years. Excellent video
Thank you for the video. One of the best Ive seen. Perfect explaining of everything and small tips you give that are nothing probably to you as a veteran which help out hugely for us. Thank you
Hello from Canada my name also is Chris.Absolutely awesome instruction....on a side note i had to take a second look during whole video due to i could have swore it was Billy Bob Thorton talking and in quite a few sequences you resemble him looks and action wise as well keep up the awesome videos grind and burn brother
Great video. Really enjoyed it. I switched job a couple years ago from uphand tig and 7018 to API downhand. Still working on my bottoms. They pass visual and xray, but Im shooting for them to look like the top. Another thing that machinist hate is when you use a micrometer as a C-clamp :)
I can’t get enough of watching and listening to you and Austin Ross. I could listen all day long and learn more in a day then 10 years in a classroom! I hope someday I get to learn what you all have and be able to pass it on the way y’all have! God bless you guys and as long as you teach the more of us get to become better!
Hey Chris, great video! I really love how you were just honest about this is how you would do it in the field. I just got into the industrial maintenance field about 2 years ago, and I’m not a welder by trade, but I’ve had to do quite a bit of welding at my job and I really like the way you taught in this video because there are people who prefer to teach things by a step by step, by the book method, but then there are people like you who teach the right way. We don’t live in a perfect world, and in the field, things go wrong and you have to learn to make adjustments on the fly, and you did a great job showing that in the video! Thanks, Josh
weve been welding 2 inch to 8 inch pipe in a amonia plant down here in south ms, and ive just literally started, never welded a peace of pipe a day in my life, untill this job, been on it for 8 months now, and i still try to improve every weld i make, and i learn, every weld i make, and seeing you tell the truth and how it is, makes me feel great, ive come a long ways for sure especially with beads, but this makes me feel a lot better with my welds so far. all positions
Hey Chris,my name is Barry Taylor from North Louisiana. I'm retired now,and for 35+ years I welded as a combo pipe welder single hand . your videos are very informative,but I haven't seen you say anything about rod Angle. Normally it'd be 90 degrees to your pipe. Tight gap loose gap sometimes they're not perfect neither are pipe fitters.anyway keep up the good work and God bless
Hey, my name is Bill. I am subscribed to your channel. I'm learning to stick weld. You said something about an American made stinger that really grabs on to the rod. I remember you saying something about needing to sell some extra ones you had. Well I would like to purchase one. Please let me know. Thank you for the welding lessons. I really liked your ideas for building a welding cart and calling apartment buildings for contract leads. Very helpful.
Thanks for the welding tips! I went to school for it in Okc back when I was 15. I made it to vertical welding and got a piece of slag in my eye behind my safety glasses and never finished but it still interest me. Never know when it might come in handy.
Hey I'm just learning the trade. I'm really excited about getting in the shop thanks for your videos. I need all the help I can get!!plus your way handsome 🥰😂
Good video just all information on what you need to now to do the weld One of the best I have watched if not the best There is a lot of videos on welding done so called welders that would not do a weld test and can make a simple prepare a peace of plant ( like a excavator bucket) such a performance and still won't last two shifts and they try and make out they know what they're doing
Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it. There's a bunch of so called welders out there. That would never weld the bottom and then rip it apart. I don't plan on showing Only pretty wells but real life situations. Thanks for watching Derek
This video is very informal. Above and beyond. I do have a question. I have no experience but i have access to practice with this 6in schedule 40. No problem rods, machine, ect. But no teacher. Id really like to start welding. Any suggestions? I dont want to get frustrated and give up. Thank you sir.
Good video - the nick test reminds me of welding school. Most of my welding after school was in a refinery. The codes required most CS weld stringer and hot pass to be P5, all up hill. Any filler and caps were up hill using 7018.
0:59 My boss is a decently set up guy with some decent businesses and were not close but hes my best friends uncle and ive tried to excel and show him im worth associating with but he seems like he wants me to stay stagnant and every businessman should have your mentality chris. The fact you want that for me makes me want it more for me. It tells me theres successful people out there who want me to succeed. And i will, its the only option. Ive started late but 25 still gives me 25 years to make it happen. I need to find a local business owner willing to invest in me, because ill give it everything i have if i can get an inch, and take the person who believed in me to the heights i envision.
Just came across your channel. Lots of great advice. I really appreciate the way you breakdown each step. I would be very interested in one of those stingers
Good tutorial Chris. However in the field, we can't see the root from the inside.. however sound and the site of the puddle at the route from the outside I can have better judgement. Thank you!
Your videos are the best on RUclips. When are you going to film a express course Vip for who is starting this welding path. Put thene price! Greetings from Chile, South America Thanks for all your awesome tricks
Always love your content and how you explain everything! Also if you’re still up for selling one of those stingers I’d love to get one but totally understand if you don’t want to let them go! Much love!
I wondered when you were gonna post more videos with the content I enjoy! Great stuff! And I would like to buy a stubby rod stinger if you have any left. Thanks!
The nic test looked good to me but I'm not real sure what I was looking for there at the end. I guess you want the tear to not exhibit any trace of the joint. A homogeneous piece that breaks completely randomly (in that bend). Right?
Hola Chris, I'm 52 and have been welding on and off since high school, mostly on my own equipment and some side jobs here and there. I have recently decided to go back to welding school to learn to mig and tig. Stick welding and oxyacetylene has been the intro and a great refresher, but as mentioned, the r. To learn to mig a tig. What is a good machine in your opinion for pipe welding and other types of work that won't break the bank. I've been looking at a Miller Trailblazer. I'll buy one of the stingers if you have any left to sell.
Chris, I’m not a pipeliner but do weld on my farm equipment. Shredder, hay fork, corrals,…etc. Do you have advice on running a good stout bead on high stress equipment?
The box is balsa, or a similar ultralight wood. Who makes the best pancake? (Sarge seems lighter than Wendys-gotcha) I have a CMR Fab pancake in the mail and I'm putting a Tefuawe adjustable auto into it. I can patch a box back together-hell I thought about fabbing up my own pancake hood as they are so simple. Box, strap, flat panels, lens. Of course making it ourselves (when it can be purchased off the shelf) is usually the most expensive way to do anything, so I'm learning to avoid such.
Thank you so much for this videos. Coulda used this when I was in weld school. Ran into all these scenarios and can’t even count the times I laid on the ground struggling with the dad gum bottoms. Glad I learned to be a weld repair guy before a welder lol.
Hey did you happen to be working at that power plant job outside of Hope Arkansas ? I'm guessing around 2010 or so ? I was sent down there from a st Luis Local to weld on riser duct , just look familiar
Cool channel I'm glad I found it. Just my opinion everybody says welcome back to the channel. I think best to stay welcome to [ then say your channel name] shortens up the intro and gets the channel name out there quick. Then folks hear the name while listening to vidoes and dint have to always ne looking at the phone to read the channel name. Just my opinion. I listen to lots of videos while driving
When are one of the manufacturers going to make a stick welder with a thumb control, sure in this dsy and age it wouldn't be hard, as welding position and metal temperatures change small changes in current would be super improvement in MMAW

I’ll make a video for you,bud… That’s not a stupid question.
It’s a good question. Your grandpa left you a heck of a welding machine. The welding rod holder/stinger. Website will be up hopefully this week. We’re putting them back into production. You can find them at stubbyrodsaver.com.
The Texas Boys are upping their welding game- thanks for the vids Chris!
Right on

Chris! man, NY pipeliner here, you're the real deal on a Sunday morning breakfast welding video, you're the freekin boss in my book
thank you I appreciate that. I always enjoy pipeliners and real welders in the comments.
Oh yeah , thanx for coming out of retirement for tips and tricks videos.
I've been a TIG hand running mostly food grade stainless since I left welding school about a year and a half ago. I've been looking to get back into stick once I find a machine so this is SUPER helpful. Thanks for sharing your years of experience with us younger guys.

Thanks for watching thanks for watching Bud
If you can tig you can stick tigs harder
Just watch the puddle
This is quality. Taylor, you out done yourself here.
I appreciate it bud
Im a first year apprentace. I am only allowed to run 1/8 6010 and 3/32 7018. I run my cap to flush and run 85 amp and run 2 wide cap beads and 1 thin quick final bead, to keep me covered on undercut if there is any, on sed 80 6in. I find myself strugling with my bottom drooping on both my fill and cap
cutting the pipe into thirds certainly made the demonstration better. i don't think i have seen it done that way before. very good.
Glad you liked it!
I've been well in 45 years, and that looks pretty good.
Welding
Thank you. It is what it is. Move to the next one. I really do need to get some fresh rods.
It's important to me to show people where it’s really like.
I appreciate the kind words, Mr. James

thank you for reaching out Zach. I only retired from pipe welding. I still work all the time lol. I just try to do with the rich do. invest in things that pay me to own them.
they won’t tell you what to do but they leave clues
I've been doing it for a while, and I wish I had someone to explain it like this when I first started. Keep it up
Me too.
Thank you for the time you took to make this. Cheers from a garage warrior from Poland.
Chris, I sure enjoyed your video on pipeline welding. I taught welding in a vocational technical school, which was an satisfaction. I learned a lot from your experiences in the welding industry. Keep up what your experiences and knowledge.

You make it look so easy. I've always sucked at pipe welding. That's why I TIG weld and fabricate. Keep up the good work.
Taylor I love videos , and I hope you keep them coming! You put info in layman terms, and thanks for what you do!!
I’m glad you like it! I will do my best
Your content is sooo good and informative and you make it very easy to understand if you’re a dummy like me
I’m glad you like it. Thank you for letting me know. If you talk bad about yourself people will start believing you lol.
Glad to see you break down all the prep and set up.. the KEY to consistently putting out quality work..
This is the best video on weld theory ive ever seen 🙌🏽
Thank you! Welding theory… that’s a good playlist…
Chris, I'm 68 and retired, but you make such good videos that I HAVE to watch them to the end. Sort of late in life to become a welder, but I'm trying. Take care.
Good deal. As long as you can see pretty good you’ll be fine. Keep it up. Let me know how it’s going. Thank you for being here.
It's NEVER too late. Keep it up!
Congratulations on retirement! Keep up the great content.
Another great video glad to see someone taking time to help guys that are probably just starting out hope to see more in the future
That's slick, cutting the pipe in quarters and just welding the bottoms. 👌
Right on
Man I you have some of the best explained videos, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Keep them coming!!!

thank you Mr Samuel,
I just make videos that would have helped me
best welder I know! great video Chris. Wish I could weld like you
Wow, thanks!
Great video from an experienced welder used to working in the field. When you’re learning welding in a school environment or even taking the certification tests you’ll be doing it in IDEAL conditions.
When you actually go to implement your hard won skills, you’ll find that it ain’t the same. When he says you need to learn to adapt on the fly or weld how the client demands, that’s exactly how it goes so practice the little nuances of bringing your setup back to something more ideal when you find it’s gone all drunken Larry on ya.
Well, said! Thank you trade works

Thanks brother , iam a pipeliner too , been in proffesion like 22 years . Iam from india. Good video . Keep it up❤❤
That's awesome! Thank you
I taught pipe welding (API-1104) years ago in Houston. You, my friend, are the best instructor I have ever seen. Wish you would open a welding school.
This is by far the best video on downhill pipe welding I've watched and I've been watching nothing but these kinds of videos all weekend in preperation for my first weld test. Thank you.
I really Love learning something different every day and enjoy watching you weld.
Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
Glad to hear it!!!! thank you Carlos
Gold. Absolute gold. Subbed as green welder who just got an apprenticeship.
As I always tell the inspectors, there’s no code for ugly😂! Great information here kid’s watch listen and learn especially when there’s two welders coming in on the bottom it gets really hot and it can go south real quick!! Your a great teacher!!
So true. most of the time it's better to stop let it cool off a little bit
I told the inspectors... those that can weld...weld... those that can't become inspectors
Welding is the one occupation where you are never as good as you will be. I can see myself getting better and that has not changed over the years. Excellent video
Well said!
Thank you for the video. One of the best Ive seen. Perfect explaining of everything and small tips you give that are nothing probably to you as a veteran which help out hugely for us. Thank you

@TaylorWelding -- Lots of information in that video Chris. Greatly appreciate you taking the time to make it. I took a lot away from it.
Lenco twister is a similar type of holder I really like them.
Very good way of teaching, great work and thanks.
I like your Honesty, because you are right about bottom weldz and roll out wheel Weldz. 🤯
Hey Chris, great video! I really love how you were just honest about this is how you would do it in the field. I just got into the industrial maintenance field about 2 years ago, and I’m not a welder by trade, but I’ve had to do quite a bit of welding at my job and I really like the way you taught in this video because there are people who prefer to teach things by a step by step, by the book method, but then there are people like you who teach the right way.

Thank you Josh. I almost named the channel real world welding.
In the field is a whole different ball game.
Hey Josh industrial welding is a little different from pipeline. Rods and welding procedures etc.
weve been welding 2 inch to 8 inch pipe in a amonia plant down here in south ms, and ive just literally started, never welded a peace of pipe a day in my life, untill this job, been on it for 8 months now, and i still try to improve every weld i make, and i learn, every weld i make, and seeing you tell the truth and how it is, makes me feel great, ive come a long ways for sure especially with beads, but this makes me feel a lot better with my welds so far. all positions
That's cool man keep on burning
Hey brother under the hood, you'll learn in this business until they lay us in the ground.turn and burn hood down
Hey Chris,my name is Barry Taylor from North Louisiana.

Hey, my name is Bill. I am subscribed to your channel. I'm learning to stick weld.
You said something about an American made stinger that really grabs on to the rod.
I remember you saying something about needing to sell some extra ones you had.
Well I would like to purchase one.
Please let me know.
Thank you for the welding lessons.
I really liked your ideas for building a welding cart and calling apartment buildings for contract leads.

Thanks I really liked the bend test I love welding.i have seen some very bad welders in my time.
Hey I'm just learning the trade. I'm really excited about getting in the shop thanks for your videos. I need all the help I can get!!plus your way handsome 🥰😂
Thank you brother! The money is definitely made on the bottom. 👍🏻
No doubt!
BTW, you’re a great teacher.
I appreciate that!
Good video just all information on what you need to now to do the weld
One of the best I have watched if not the best

Thanks buddy. There’s a lot of people that don’t want other people to excel. I’m not saying that about your boss, I’m just saying that in general.
Just came across your channel. Lots of great advice. I really appreciate the way you breakdown each step. I would be very interested in one of those stingers
Good tutorial Chris. However in the field, we can't see the root from the inside.. however sound and the site of the puddle at the route from the outside I can have better judgement. Thank you!
for testing we used a hydro. pressure pump , to make it real U shaped.
I open my land up with an .045 cutting disc. Run the bead at 95. Hot pass at 95. Works like a charm
Your videos are the best on RUclips. When are you going to film a express course Vip for who is starting this welding path.
Put thene price!
Greetings from Chile, South America
Thanks for all your awesome tricks
That’s a great idea. How much would you pay for something like that?
From $100 to $ 300 .
Thanks for this kind of videos!
Just subbed. Great content and well spoken. Enjoyed!
Awesome, thank you!
Soild thank you so much. Time to step up my weld game
Always love your content and how you explain everything! Also if you’re still up for selling one of those stingers I’d love to get one but totally understand if you don’t want to let them go! Much love!
Made it to the end.. great Job ! THX
Awesome! Thank you!
I wondered when you were gonna post more videos with the content I enjoy! Great stuff! And I would like to buy a stubby rod stinger if you have any left. Thanks!
They’re all gone man. Sorry.
Awesome content! Great job on this video
Thanks so much!
The nic test looked good to me but I'm not real sure what I was looking for there at the end. I guess you want the tear to not exhibit any trace of the joint. A homogeneous piece that breaks completely randomly (in that bend). Right?
Cool video. Have to take this an give it a shot.
Hello dear Chris
Your tutorials are great
Could you please send link for your stinger ?
I don’t have anymore. There might be some more on eBay.
Like the video ,, wish companies did weld procedures like that . Nowadays it's a buddy system, not what you know , who you know.. 😮
Yep Sunday tips ❤ buddy
Hola Chris,
I'm 52 and have been welding on and off since high school, mostly on my own equipment and some side jobs here and there.
I have recently decided to go back to welding school to learn to mig and tig. Stick welding and oxyacetylene has been the intro and a great refresher, but as mentioned, the r. To learn to mig a tig.
What is a good machine in your opinion for pipe welding and other types of work that won't break the bank. I've been looking at a Miller Trailblazer.
I'll buy one of the stingers if you have any left to sell.
Thanks for the great video .
Chris, I’m not a pipeliner but do weld on my farm equipment. Shredder, hay fork, corrals,…etc. Do you have advice on running a good stout bead on high stress equipment?
Get it clean dig out any perfections such as cracks. The 6010 first. cap it with a 7018
Thanks
Also pre heating can go a long way.
I'm about to try out that method for capping. I destroyed my root pass here in school. Although, I only got 1/8 7018
It wasn't perfect, but it was nice.
The box is balsa, or a similar ultralight wood. Who makes the best pancake? (Sarge seems lighter than Wendys-gotcha) I have a CMR Fab pancake in the mail and I'm putting a Tefuawe adjustable auto into it. I can patch a box back together-hell I thought about fabbing up my own pancake hood as they are so simple. Box, strap, flat panels, lens. Of course making it ourselves (when it can be purchased off the shelf) is usually the most expensive way to do anything, so I'm learning to avoid such.
Thank you so much for this videos. Coulda used this when I was in weld school. Ran into all these scenarios and can’t even count the times I laid on the ground struggling with the dad gum bottoms. Glad I learned to be a weld repair guy before a welder lol.
I was telling Austin that today. I would’ve killed. Have somebody show me this in the beginning
You and austin are best of the best in my opinion
Hey did you happen to be working at that power plant job outside of Hope Arkansas ? I'm guessing around 2010 or so ? I was sent down there from a st Luis Local to weld on riser duct , just look familiar
I've got one of those stingers I've never used it I'll have to try it out
It’s my favorite for sure
this guy is a legend!
Thank you for this content sir. Cheers
My pleasure!
Nice welds ! It's cool to see the penatration on the inside. Why don't you use a auto darkening helmet ?
Cool channel I'm glad I found it. Just my opinion everybody says welcome back to the channel. I think best to stay welcome to [ then say your channel name] shortens up the intro and gets the channel name out there quick.
Then folks hear the name while listening to vidoes and dint have to always ne looking at the phone to read the channel name. Just my opinion. I listen to lots of videos while driving
When are one of the manufacturers going to make a stick welder with a thumb control, sure in this dsy and age it wouldn't be hard, as welding position and metal temperatures change small changes in current would be super improvement in MMAW
That is a great idea
we used 10 k linear pot taped on the stinger handle or a remote with a magnet to hold it on the pipe
good jobs have a helper to adjust it
I would like to get the information to purchase the stubby stingers. Thank you.
