Great contest Chief! some promising welding skills there. I think it's very wise to foster interest in cadets for such foundational skills as welding. Years from now as a crew member one of these cadets might use his welding skills in an emergency to help keep his ship afloat and navigating. Cheers!
Well said.
I will always respect those who help apprenticeships. Youth are always the future.
That competition was a great idea!
Agreed. The training and approach differences were quite apparent. But the concept and idea is very sound. Salute!
Strongly agree.
Great to see that you're training the next generation Chief!
Finally, a post. Proud dad of an aspiring Texas A&M dad of his son. We often lose the basics of life.
This moved me very deeply. I love to see those in authority helping those new to employment and training. Encouragement is so much more powerful than criticism. Thank you Chief. May calm seas and fair winds bless your days.
You're doing a beautiful thing there Chief! Fantastic to see this display of community and ethics from you, well done.
What ever can help lift these fantastic people from the Philippines higher i am all for.
Hey Chief welcome back! It's awesome to see you working with the cadets! That's a nice thing you put together
Love Ur show!! I'm a diver welder ! Great opportunity for those new boys! Great facilities u gat there make good use of it !
Thanks for sharing this Chief.....
An admirable and worthy endeavor Chief. Accolades and congratulations to all involved. Modern shipbuilding and repair requires these necessary skills. Well done cadets! 💪
Well said!
Hello, how are you doing? From Virginia Beach, Virginia USA. Thanks for the work you put in making these videos. Been watching now for a few years, and I always look forward to the next one.
Wow! I’m from VB originally and now live in Manila. Small world!
People like you make the difference. Congratulations.
well done chief servus from austria🙂
Trades! Love them! I have never been slow in big machines breaking!
Congratulations to the winners ! And thank you to Unitor, Seaversity and United Marine Training Center, and Chief Makoi for helping celebrate World Maritime Day !
Love this, I was in my 70' when I took a welding lessons.☺
This brings back my first weld at the Quincy shipyard... So nice to see cadets learn first hand. Now let's try a little overhead,, button up that top button. thx stinger dogs..
WoW! What a great incentive for the young cadets! Well done on your behalf & the companies & others involved.👍 Geez, maybe I should be training some of those guys, the kids I had in the Autoshop that I used to run would have definitely been in the running 😉 (I taught school kids one day per week while I was running my fabrication business which saw many of them take on apprenticeships once they left school) I love seeing people increase their skills no mater what their age. Well done on organising such a great event!!👍
Well done! We need more people like you that have a vision to the future as well as being a great mentor.
Well done Chief. You are a true mentor. You exemplify a true role model for youth
Thanks! I try my best.
Good idea Chief. Great work kids, keep going.(ret. Chief)
Nice one Cheif, the cadets will remember this for their entire careers and will work hard to become better welders. Philippines is a maritime powerhouse.
Great to see a new installment! We've all been waiting, Thanks!
Great job and well done Chief! Welding is an very important skill to learn.
That competition is so cool. I'm 35 and fell in love with welding, so I took a career pivot and am in classes to get certified in smaw stick, and then mig. I LOVE IT.
Competition brings out the best. You compete against others and against yourself. Good job.
Hi from uk Chief MAKOi and crew 👋👍hope the waters and mother nature treating you all well. Well done to all participants for taking part and to the crews for organising this event. Thanks for your time be safe and see you soon👍👋
Hello from Newcastle Australia chief
Organising a competition is always useful and joyful! Well done!
Thank you for another Great video. Cheers
I was taught to weld (brazing, stick welding and silver soldering) by an Ex RAF engineer. He was a brilliant gent and his knowledge and skill were outstanding.
Awesome 😎 thank you for sharing!
Awesome competition!! There were some great welding done there. Best of luck to all of them.
I always enjoy new tales from the merchant marine world. So interesting!
Very cool idea. I’m glad you could organize this. I’m always amazed at how crystal-clear the footage now is of such activities, despite the high light contrast. Cameras have come a long way.
Good job chief i hope more to come to a competition like this
In every aspect of life...if you are a seasoned veteran it should be the key path to lead less knowledgeable people to having their skills and knowledge helped to new levels. my 5 cents of thinking was always that if you dont share your knowledge then the knowledge goes to waste. Chief is doing an boss job of telling and teaching us about the life on the seas. I tip my hat to you sir.
Our talented young men and women need more events like this. Good on ya for helping to make this event happen. Hope these young folks stay on task and become excellent seafarers!
Welding, particularly maritime welding, is becoming an in demand field. I know here in the US a lot of shipyards are starting training programs because of a shortage of skilled welders.
Great effort Chief!
Chief, Awesome job mate. The trade is better for it.
Thank you!
Well done to all involved, fantastic idea chief MAKOi.
You are a good man Chief
I’m 69 and learnt to weld on our farm when i was 10 then did 5 yrs welding at high school, eventually studied welding and gained a Mig Pipe certification here in Australia.
I thoroughly believe that a person needa to learn stick welding in all positions as it makes for a good welder who progresses to MIG.
It gives a very good knowledge of pool control and heat control.
Every one I’ve taught to weld I taught stick first.
Its very easy to mig weld but although the weld may look good it may be full of cold lap, whereas a stick weld that looks good is a good weld.
Hola ingeniero! Hace mucho no te veía por aquí.
Competition, Is a grate teacher it makes the students look over the shoulder of the compaction to see how to do the task at hand better. If one learns to weld he or she has a job forever something is always broken. Thank you for your time. Paul
As you, and other mariners both current and retired like myself know, welding is an important skill to have. Respect to those who are very good at it despite the infrequency in which hot work needs to be done on projects aboard ships. Staying proficient or improving those skills when you don't weld often or on a regular basis is a bit difficult. Not a daily or weekly demand, but when it is needed, it's needed. Well done chief. Have a good watch.
Nice. I've been wondering how you were doing. Should have known that you're out there doing great things. Definitely nice to see you again 👍🇨🇦🔧
Great job chef. I will travel to Manila to participate if I am aware of that beforehand.
Takes me back when I had to take my welding practical in my city and guilds plate and pipe exam .
Still remember "falling through the root "Happy days 😮😮😮
Chief MAKOi, You are the greatest!!🎉🎉🎉⚓
Long time.....Chief.... ❤ India... Happy Maritime Day |||
Hi Chef,
Great content and contest.
Welding is an art form for sure. It takes a ton of practice to get good
Watching from Mechanicsville, Va. Been to Manila in the Philippians in the 1960's. I enjoy your content and you.
So cool!
Well done Chief.
You must be proud of those Cadets.
One of the contestants had great skill, using his left hand as a steady for controlling the rod (@6.20) and he also appeared to move the rod more than others, thereby getting good penetration into both pieces of metal, away more "fluid" action than others,, I wonder was he one of the winners?
Noticed that too, young man may just have a future in welding!
Great job
Hey up mate happy maritime day having that competition is a good idea and you look to be enjoying
great job sa inyo lahat!!
I’m a self thought welder. Owning lots of heavy equipment you have to know welding. It’s a relatively early skill to master. And very rewarding. Weld baby weld. To you drop 😅
Long time no see brother from the imperial county ca 🇺🇲🇺🇲
Welding & metal music - it's like watching the Making Stuff channel all over again :)
Great job Chief
Your fans need more content, Chief!
Great video. Some aspiring welders.
Yes they are
Thank you. Chief! As a 'lubber I find these windows into the culture of Maritime Engineers inspiring esp. in regards to safety and professionalism. Apologies if you have covered it before, but a video on electrical safety and dealing with energized circuits would be extremely interesting as well. I'm on land in the States, we have OSHA/NFPA70, very curious as to where they intersect with maritime industry.
Hello from Canada !
Hello from South Africa
Would make a better Olympic sport than some of the horse poop events of recent years.
you got that right brother ~
Masters of all!
BRAVO!!
Great tutorial chief
Great vlog as always! Good job chief! When will you be back at sea? Keep up the good work. Be safe!
I worked in a machine shop for 36 years, the most popular welding rod we used was 5/32 7018, I think that LH 314 rod is the same thing.
What a difference in weld quality between those kids! It's a good skills test, but there is no "identify this metal by the color and shape of the sparks" section? Just arc skills?
Nice job. Welding is a handy skill, especially on a metal ship. Teach them young and it is far easier. I wish someone had taught me. I am self taught, with all the bad habits that go with that. Not very good with stick. Much better with mig. But could certainly learn more and improve.
chief tagal mong nawala GOD BLESS PO
Hey Chief, it's been a minute. 🇺🇸
Lot of room for improvment which, like this skills check, and encouragement will produce great craft persons. Hopefully seafaring chiefs.
❤❤❤😊
Awesome to see. The best of these are guys I would absolutely bring in as apprentice welders. Are they given instruction in class rules so that they can supervise welders in service? and are they given the opportunity to qualify to class rules (to some qualified procedure, even though not transferable)? Do they get training, prior to this time or in the future, about the various steels and their properties/requirements for welding, procedure and practice (Charpy requirements, matching of strength, fitup, acceptance standards (ISO 58178, for example))? As I work in the industry, I really want to know what I should expect the crew to be familiar with, if not experts, from various places. The US engineering crew vary a lot, and most defer to class surveyor or company engineering, which sometimes don;t even know theor own rules....
Great
So, what made the winners stand out from the crowd? Please, describe in detail what they did right (and what did they do wrong).
Boat is going to sink with those welds.
Boy I bet the first time you grabbed a welding lead you layed down dimes..... hey buddy these are kids, unless you have something positive to contribute, keep the negative comments to yourself!
being a teacher of welding for 30 years, these people would not get a tick of approval from me
Ay mandaw ka uyam
I'm sorry, Chief, but I couldn't finish your video. The music was so loud as compared to your voice over. It's the same as loud commercials... the main content levels are lower, and don't take up the entire audio spectrum like commercials do.
I wish all of the cadets a safe and long career!
Agree, it's a dreadful noise and far too loud. A pity because the idea behind the competition is excellent and the video would, I am sure, have been interesting.
Moltar
You ashore training again Chief? Or was this just a between ships activity.
Chief, do you have any info on USA ports going on strike in the near future?
Does this old hart good to see you passing the know how to the younger one
XEN crypto 💎
Baka magtulungan NYU Ako any idea to be a seaferer
Naiinsfire pOH Ako sa inyu ser..Ng aaply din pOH Ako to be seaferer...
📯🕒⏳⌛; do you even know what is happening to the ships in All the seas oceans right now ❓
Whats going on in shipping" YT Sal he has all port strike to dali~~
Welcome chief, all your videos are fascinating let me ask you to do a favor for me could you send me a book of a marine engineer which is written by taylor
