    Thank you, man. I really appreciate your advise. I just learning and lol aluminium seems to be some what easier for me than stainless steel. Im still cooking pieces of thin stainless and struggling.

      It's funny I'm working on a stainless version of this video now! I'm not sure how in depth people would like it to be so if you have any questions let me know and maybe I can cover it ✌️ cheers and keep up with the practice it's the best thing you can possibly do

      Would be nice to see, like thin stainless welds. And what cups sizes, tungsten diameter and gas flow does to the outcome of the pieces. Im on a budget so no fancy pulse settings on my machine and i didnt know i could buy other machines for same price with more options. Mine Is an eastwood ac/dc 200 basic model. (Love the foot pedal). Thank you. For your knowledge and videos

      @@epluribusunum5405 my pleasure! I actually have some low buck stuff I made do with before I had better equipment. I'll drag some out and do some comparisons and explain how to best use what you have

    Great video! I will say that if you don’t need the stick out, a regular #5 will save a ton of gas and cut down on the etching zone. Keep it going. You’d be a great instructor.

      Definitely true and I would absolutely recommend that. Maybe I should do a video on different cups and applications. I always find myself using the fupa 12 since I'm using bouncing back and forth between materials. I really appreciate your feedback it's nice to know I'm going in a good direction ✌️

    At 1:28 of your video you can see your tungsten getting contaminated when you see the smoke and getting dark. It is because of two things. As an advice, you don't use big cups with aluminum. Argon does not need a big cone of argon shielding nor a big stick-out. Don't waste your argon and damage your tungsten. And second, use a little post flow. If you cut the argon shielding while tungsten is still red hot it will get contaminated. If you make those corrections you will get cleaner, shinier and stronger welds. And You are right with the pre-heating tip😉

      Good advice! I really want these videos to be a group discussion in the comments so anyone looking for tips can find them. Everyone knows something and we can all learn together! Thanks for checking it out

      That tungsten stick out is crazy, i need to get a cup like the my biggest problem is seeing. Pre heating sure helps👍

  • @michaelnorris5348
    @michaelnorris5348 Год назад +1

    The preheat is a must u would be amazed how much better it welds with small cup tungsten no runout 100% tungsten u never weld cast aluminum like that but looks ok to be doing wrong

    Fupa 12 for Aluminum?

    • @enemymetalworks
      @enemymetalworks  Год назад +1

      Works great! Although depending on visibility a Pyrex cup usually is better. But I've never had a fupa break on AC
