    I put together one of Paul Brinegars ZTFab carts a few months ago and used silicon bronze for 99% of the build using my Lincoln SquareWave TIG 200. You can see that video here • ZTFab Welding Carts
    My Friend JD ordered a cart for his shop that included bottom drawer and foot pedal holder.
    In this video, we use a torch switch at high amperage for tack welding, then we compare straight welding current to pulse tig.
    And....we experimented with pulse settings using silicon bronze rod and lay wire technique and it worked great.

    This is the kind of craftsmanship that makes me love fabrication/welding. Love the touch with the glowing logo!

    I appreciate how you can endorse your own products (and others') without your videos ever coming across as "ads." Much respect 👍

      @doublebulbing 7 лет назад +8

      when the item being showcased is directly related to the channel to me it is not a ad at all but when someone is cutting into the videos trying to sell me a mattress in a box or a audible subscription or snacks mailed in a box then it is time to hit the unsubscribe button
      I have no problem with Jody mentioning his weldmongerstore.com store and the products he offers either my only main problem is I need the Tig Welder first

      I'll support Jody any way I can. I bought my first everlast welder and started learning how to stick weld watching his videos. He is a stand up guy who I feel genuinely wants to improve his viewer's position in life. Kudos to him.

    • @rolobotoman
      @rolobotoman 7 лет назад +3

      One of the thing that helps is that he's upfront about it. No silly "reviews" or nonsense product placement and the focus stays on the craft itself not tools over tools.

  • @eddiekawecki2510
    @eddiekawecki2510 7 лет назад +1

    Thanks, that was a sweet build. After I changed out my huge torch that came with my Everlast 250 EX with a CK20 water cooled flex head with high flex cables it was a fantastic upgrade but I missed the button feature on the old Euro style torch that came with the welder. On line I found an inexpensive button and plug for my unit- under $10 total and wired it up. It is so nice to have that feature again using it as you showed. Very versatile in both 2t an4t. when you don't need the pedal. I would recommend having one on any torch just in case. One of the best other upgrades I would recommend is purchasing a foot control from SSC Controls out of Mentor Oh, Great product, service and price. Looking forward to your future videos. Ed K. Cleve. Oh.

    I think one of the coolest things about Jody is that he makes do with what he has, even though he is pro. He only has 1/8" filler so that's what he uses. Just like me, a couple of guys on a Sunday welding. RAD

  • @ChrisB257

    Another real good video Jody, thank you..
    I don't have a pulse option but am wondering if I set up foot pedal right... with a suitable max and a means of controlling the low setting - I might be able to get the right rhythm with foot to approximate a pulse. Like the idea a lot.

    @ecr125x 7 лет назад

    I've been messing with the silicon bronze pulse for a while now and I found 3/32 red or gold 3/32 filler and either the rule of 33 pulse settings with high amps (can't remember) or about 120 amps and 95% on time and the rest at 33 makes for very nice looking welds, I really wanna try it on a small table or chair something aesthetic not structural

  • @thebubbacontinuum2645
    @thebubbacontinuum2645 2 года назад

    I don't think much of ZT Fab. The kit to turn a Harbor Freight chest into a cart cost $310 when I checked, and that was more than a chest cost. The kit also looked flimsy. I couldn't see putting $600 into the kit and cart combination.
    The standalone cart is also expensive, and when you're done, you have something only a little better than a Vulcan cart, which runs around $100 and requires no welding.
    I got a Harbor Freight chest and fabbed up a base from hot-rolled steel. It has a 1000-pound capacity, so 300 pounds of bottles are no problem. It has 10000 cubic inches of drawer space. Two welders fit on top just fine. I probably have $400 in it, and it will last forever.
    It took several days to do what I did, including time for the paint to cure. I'm building a second one, and it's faster because there is very little designing left to be done, and I already knew what to buy this time.

    Jody - Do you have a guess as to build time with cart? Total prep time? After you come across edges with sanding disc do you dust them? And due you clean with acetone after you dust them or simply dust/acetone all in one?

  • @joet.4756

    Hey Jody! I've been subscribed to your channel for a long while now and you've really helped me advance my welding skills/technique, really appreciate the time you take to make these tutorials. I could do with a little advice regarding one of my machines, I have an old transformer Lincoln Norweld scratch TIG from the 80's that I really love, it's one of the smoothest welders I've ever used. I'd love to convert it to HF start, do you know of any resources I could look at regarding this, or could you offer any advice? Thanks for any help and for the great videos. Mark, Scotland.

      @keithjurena9319 7 лет назад

      I use 3/4" PVC since I have many types of filler and little room to store. For steel rods, the little oxygen absorber packets from commercial jerky packages helps to keep corrosion down. Use in addition with silica gel. Oxygen absorber packs have powdered iron and salt.
