- Hey guys, Here is a condensed version of some field repair work I did on a traveling gantry crane. There are many questions that may arise because I chose not to arc gouge this piece instead of using the Torch but as I have found throughout the years, this is actually much more effective. If you'd like to see what Im talking about, plan on kicking back for a bit and see what you can gain. Again, its not a "How to do it", but a "How I did it" video. These are solely for entertainment purposes. Thanks for the support in advance and I appreciate your interest in my videos.

Working overhead like that is exhausting. Makes my shoulders hurt just watching you. Maintenance like that is done every day by unsung heroes like you guys. It is an honor to have you share you expertise with us.
I pray that God keeps you and your son healthy and blesses your business to be prosperous. From an old tired welder I really enjoy your video’s. Now let’s keep going lol.
Working overhead like this is a young man game. There’s nothing easy about this job for sure. Looks good
Most of the itme I watch your videos to see how you are going to fix something. You show a video of a project and it's bent, buckled and distorted and I'm like, 'No way.' Then you get to cutting, shaping and welding. Next thing I know it's fixed. It's more like art than mechanical. Anyone that thinks welding is about sticking to peices of metal together needs to watch your channel. Jolly Good!!
I appreciate that!
Of people don’t have anything good to say keep it to yourself. He is a hard working guy that has his own business and I am sure he has worked hard to get where he is at with no hand outs from anyone, so keep your negative comments to yourself.
One of you is going to be SORER, LONGER then the other. Quess who? Lol
Great vid again. Can watch em all day. Thx 😊
Me!
Your son always looks so chill, like he stepped right out of the 50's or something, lol. Anyway, great fix. Made it look easy even though it was a difficult job.
Yeah, my shoulders started to hurt just looking at all that overhead work!
I love how you and your son work together.
You are and amazing mentor.
We have seen him grow in confidence as time goes by. 👍
Always learning from you, Isaac. Thanks for sharing. Love to see your son working with you. He's a chip off the old block, as they say.
The confidence and sureness expresses a purity of heart in your work which is a beauty to behold. Not to mention good youtube videos.
Watching you go through the tedious effort to get this job done gives a novice like me an understanding of what it takes to do field repairs - it is work! Welding out of position is a skill in a class of its own and I have not done a lot of it. It's good to see how it's done successfully.
Love your work Isaac. Great to see your son working with you. 🇦🇺🤘
The owner at the first shop I worked in always said the reason they called it work was because it wasn't fun.
But doing that kind of work is fun!!
The key is to find something you enjoy and then it's not work, it's enjoyable!
Its a temperate day with cloud but no rain. In winter its probably less fun.
Yep, learned something on this video. This is definitely a job for someone other than me. My arms would be dead after the first ten minutes. Never could do much overhead work, even changing a lightbulb can be a chore. Shoulders don't like that stuff at all.
as we say in Sweden: welcome to the club
@@gurraflex6478 And Oklahoma, we went to the same school of thought
My last year as a maintenance man I did nothing but change light bulbs and fixtures doing a rehab, it destroyed my neck shoulders and knees and feet, I’ll walk around in the dark before I ever touch another damn light bulb lol
I have soar shoulders from watching. Great job as usual.
Wow. I understand how hard doing overhead work like that is on a body.
I hate to say you make it look easy cause I know it wasn't an easy day for sure. But it appears you do prepare and have a plan for the job before you start. That can make a bad job easy.
Love you channel. Nice to see your boy getting some hands on work as well.
Please keep up the good work on the channel.
You are the MAN with the skills and knowledge. I enjoyed watching as always. Thanks for sharing that knowledge. Too many people are afraid to share it.
As one of my employers said. What are they going to do? But tools and put me out of business. I doubt it.
Always great be be along for the ride. Thanks for the invite...
Another fantastic video. Appreciated seeing the machine moving at the end. It gave the perspective of what it's designed to do. Also, l like seeing the stick welding. I know the wire feed is faster, but seeing it getting repaired using a technology that's been around since the 1940's just emphasizes how legitimate the process is in outdoor and high wind conditions. With very much respect for such a skilled craftsman that's willing to share and move the trade forward.
Stick welding has been around since it was first discovered in 1881 by a chap called De Meritens who was an inventor. The process was further developed over a few years and in 1889 Charles Coffin patented a process of metal arc welding.
It was until about 1907 that manual metal arc welding was taking off and Lincoln Electric made a DC welder that had adjustable voltage settings.
It wasn't until 1910 when a man called Oscar Kjellberg a Swedish inventor developed the first flux coated welding rods. ESAB is the name of the company founded by him in 1904.
The rest is history as they say!
@@JonDingle Wow! Had no idea it went back that far! But exactly, it’s awesome stuff! Thanks for your scholarship on the process!
Flux core wire was actually invented in the 40's
@@JonDingle, Was that flux coated rod the "milk coated 4510?
👍 always enjoy watching that father/son team saving the day!
Excellent job even in harsh conditions. Proves stick welding still can rule and never forget your roots.
Now your just showing off. Yea your torch is bigger than mine. Lol. Nice torch. Both torches.
The ol body won’t let me do that kind of work anymore but I sure like watching skilled guys git er dun 👍🇺🇸
This sure is a perfect job for me. You are doing the welding and I am doing the watching. Luckily I cannot even give online instructions so my mouse hand is not getting tired.
"Not the best, not the worst". That's literally my goal everytime. Make it hold for a long time and look good enough. I'd like to see you add what you're charging in the videos for those of us venturing out there on our own.
My neck, back, arms and shoulders hurt just watching all that overhead… Im gonna need a break after watching this video.
Good job
Camera work was fine Isaac, always happy to see your videos!
Another great job. Always glad to see your son helping you. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Great job Isaac. Always a pleasure to watch you work. Appreciate the explanation of the exploration of the job as you remove old weld and material in preparation for the new. Thanks for sharing.
You have very strong teeth my friend, and I really like watching your work.
Very nicely done, sore shoulders equal quality tradesman down the road, builds character lol. Thanks for sharing, stay safe and God bless
Aloha Isaac . It's always a pleasure . It looked like you had some good help today .
Best Field Engineer in the business on youtube.
Content and talent masterful as usual! Love to see apprentice gaining experience. Job site with Mobil cranes awesome. Would love to see it in real time. Thanks for sharing. Hope the youngster understands who is teaching him! Catch you on the next...🤙
Really enjoy watching the background in this. They have some really weird and wonderful machines. Good job on this. Heavy work made light.
Anytime you see something done that you've never seen before it's something to learn from it you must live down on the coast somewhere maybe in Louisiana or maybe Texas or something I don't know but anyway that looks like a shipping yard of some sort but I've never ever seen anything like that before so he's always something to learn appreciate the video
Sometime the comment was made that home is in Austin, 45-50 minutes drive time on this 1. It all adds up to a long day.
Thought it was going to rain on you but cleared up. Nice job, never liked working overhead, so hard on neck and shoulders.
Thank you Issac. You two did some major surgery on that machine.😊
Well done. You earned your money. That was a tough job. You are a tough guy, but you'd be sore after that one.
My arms and neck ache just watching you work overhead. Great work as always.
I bet your customers appreciate you just jumping in and getting the job done. Every minute those machines are down costs big dollars so I hope they are stuffing your pockets for getting the job handled fast. I have seen other welding channels that seem to have customers waiting for weeks sometimes because they got called to bid another job or whatever. I imagine that being like taking my car to a mechanic and after it is all torn apart the mechanic stops to go work on another car and not come back for days. I know I wouldn't be returning to that garage. lol
He's a master welder! Your darn rite he can charge what he wants. But remember he's also paying his son, for the equipment, insurance and welding supplies.
I wouldn't touch it for under $200 USD per hour.
Thank you men . Great job . Those cranes really take a beating😊😊😊
Very nice work you made i am new to this channel but i like it very much never seen someone so good whit a plasmatorch. Greetings from Hungary
Welcome aboard!
Difficult conditions, ref windy and dusty.
Great job as usual 👏
That was a different job .. wasn't sure what it was on till about half way through and you get to see more of the machine . Bit of a torch marathon to cut all the old material out and it looks like it was a hell of a lot more than you put back , hope your arms and shoulders recovered pretty quick . Definitely a stick job with all the wind . Thanks for sharing Issac.
Definitely a pain in the neck and shoulder job.
Get yourself a roll of 12" aluminum flashing to use as a splatter guard. It can be heated through to keep your weld zones hot.
Great job through experience the best way to work the repair.
Thanks for bringing us along. Happy Holidays!
That was quite the job. Good stuff! 80,000 lb 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
Your torch work always impresses me. I learn something every video
Thanks for going to the trouble of putting the video together. No matter what you're working on it's always interesting.
its good to see that young buck seeing what it really takes to do that type of work, you should have gave him that 7 in grinder.... help that cocky stance out of him..... 👍👍
Best ive seen, besides the welding being perfect. Your work ethic is outstanding.
Amazing Craftsmanship !
And some Dam Good Welding too !! Kudos from the Mountains of Western Pennsylvania 🇺🇸
Now that is a really nice repair.
Isaac, great video as always. in the description could you list the welding equipment you use for each project, wire size and settings? I'm sure a lot of others would like to know as well.
Holy cow, I am never this early to a Issac video, the rocks!
I'm the only one who fall in love with that beautiful sky or the huge area with a the funny vehicles? 🤔😍❤️
Yes sir, stick welding has it's places & so does mig welding. Another good job
Nice video . Even saw one of your other repairs pass in the background.
The king of the cutting torch!
Great Job Isaac !! 💯🤗
Another great video guys, thanks for sharing!
Issac, I have felt your pain doing all of that overhead work trough the screen hope you and junior recovered fast. Another great repair by the master and hopefully helper learns a lot by doing hands-on next to you.
Great work as always fantastic video
always good stuff, your experience level is impressive
I appreciate that!
Brilliant work as usual.
Great episode. This one really highlights your experience and skillset.
Enjoy watching these videos. It's amazing how well you get metal to move and make it almost like factory new..... amazing work
Awesome work! I've learned a lot watching you. It's helped me in my shop a lot.
you teach us all the time.nice job
Foundation drillers sure do keep you busy. And the precast guys too, I guess.
Great job Isaac!! That was a jagged mess. good clean up!
That definitely wasn't an easy job but you made it look easy. It would have taken me a lot longer to do a job like that.
interesting job. very nice work, thanks for the video
Good job guys! Hard working conditions but you get the job done.
Another golden job!
*I C Weld* Bravo well done, thank-you sir for taking the time to bring us along. GOD Bless.
Nice job Ike.
Superb work and music as always 👏
to bad that company didn't remove that end cap so you could access it better. great video
Everytime i watch these videos i use the torch more often at work
Those yard cranes are bonkers.
Working overhead like that is so tough on you. One year when I was building exhaust I broke two ribs on a trip and when I came back it was months of torture lifting and welding above my head. Hurts just thinking about it. 😬
Hope it doesn't bother you now... things like that linger and remind you - then it just becomes something you accept and move on. Thanks for sharing your story.
thank you for you're choice of music
Great video as always. I was actually wondering why you did not use the arc gouge glad you did comment on that. Just a novice learning how to weld and really appreciate all of the information that you provide. Thanks again.
Thanks for the video Issac take care of yourself and family great video 👍✅❤️❤️ it.
Nice and informative as always!
Nice to have someone to do all that grinding for you! Lol love it 🤙
Iisik (sp) your a great mechanic and welder. I’ve been repairing my own equipment and others for 40 years , and only a small shutdown due to health problems and I’ll be back. But your videos are always informative and accurate. There is a chance for next generation if they watch your videos. I’ve even learned a few shortcuts and changed a few processes that I’ve been doing for years, none that would impact safety or overall completeness. But helped. Thank you for these infotainment videos. And I pray you stay safe and healthy. I’d suggest you look into these new helmets that have an air pack mounted on your waist. It may save your life, and keep momma happy. I didn’t, and now suffering from the weld fume poisoning. Please look into it. If you want to talk about it, please call
Seimpher fi my friend
Thank you for reaching out to me. And Thank you for the concern. My wife and I were just looking at some air filtration hoods at fabtech. Its something we are looking into.
Great, there aren’t enough good teachers on line, or in the trades that concern themselves with self preservation. I know I haven’t. Please contact me if you have questions as to the model’s I’ve tried and found out weren’t any good. But sometimes, anything is better, due to cost. Again love your concern to teach next generation the correct way. It’s rare these days.
Awesome,great job 👍👍👍👍
Nice work bud looks good 👍
That looked really tough, overhead work is never easy. Well done for fixing it, and I was noticing all the other cranes that will need the same upgrade in due course 👍
I always learn something when I watch you! Always. Today’s takeaway: (1) Identify the cracked area, (2) remove the broken part all the way down to the cracked area and beyond to the “parent” metal, (3) clean away slag, dross, any debris, (4) make sure new part fits and adjust accordingly, (5) tack new part in pace, (6) weld new part in place using whatever process that’s appropriate pending what the environment might dictate (like you tried flux core but with the wind, you had to switch processes to arc welding it instead.
Not that you needed to read my list but I wanted to illustrate what I learned from watching this episode.
I’m excited to share, I started teaching my eldest son (he’s 25) how to weld. I’m nowhere near experienced enough to do a thorough job but I know enough to get him started down a good path. He’s decided to enroll in the welding program that I attended. I’m graduating this December!
As always Issac, thank you for the excellent teaching that you provide. I always enjoy learning from you. Hope you have a great day!
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback and Im happy to heat that you are teaching your son to weld. Welding is a good trade and good honest work. There are so many directions he can go with this skill. Congratulations on finishing your schooling next month. 👍👍👍
@@ICWeld thank you too! I’m so proud of him for taking the step. Thank you for your encouragement and kind words.
I always learn watching a master at his job. 😉😁
Great job 👍👍
All that gear running around but no sign of a water cart. 🤧 Another great vid, thanks.
Great video, thanks for sharing
Isaac You guys won't be able to high 5 one another from some sore shoulders but some GREAT FIELD WORK!!
Looks like the beam yard on 183 south of Austin, I’m from Gonzales cool seeing somebody local
looks like you have a good apprentice there !
