I love to hear an older Pro dropping tips & shortcut ! Thanks Mr. Taylor for putting out this channel! When I get my eyes repaired, I'll get right back to throwing sparks & stainless Tig. This kind of gokd nugget content keeps my brain fresh & eager to get back to welding & building metal projects again! 👍
That’s the way I was shown to saddle pipe when I first started. You didn’t show it, but if the joint isn’t 90 degrees just cut a little deeper on one side and it will work about the same way. Like you say, once you get the hang you can eye ball it. Nice video.
I appreciate you making these videos. For what it is worth on this particular topic, may I offer a different perspective? To connect one round pipe to another with a perfect fit, you cut the joining pipe with two 45 degree cuts that form an included angle on the end of the pipe of 90 degrees. This is mathematically foolproof and much easier than trying to cut out some valley freehand (or with subsequent persuasion). It is essentially the same process except what I am suggesting is that your cuts are rotated 90 degrees and instead of carving a valley you are carving a point. Try it out! Best regards.
I was welding down hole mandrels for Weatherford Enterra in the '90's and most of our fixtures and tables were made of old drill stem. Safety came through with a meter and they were almost all radio active. Be careful! Another great video! Thanks.
Just want to say that this channel awesome and is an asset to anyone who is receptive. You had me sold on the "o-let" video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge !!
I think something that is worth mentioning is how you set your flame, hit the gas valve with a little more pressure, then set your flame again while holding the air lever. Something as simple as that isn’t taught to this newer generation of welders
Awesome job! In a previous video a guy mentioned using a grinder on the saddle ears to help with better fit… I figured a hammer was more my speed. Looks like I was spot on! 😅💪
Another advantage of cutting with a torch. Hot metal is easier to bend. You would laugh at how I made bar joists for a shed using leftover rebar and angle iron!
you are a no bull shit guy man you are LICKEDE SLICK,CUT IT, SMACK THAT FUDGER, AND WELD HER UP, get her done. WOW THATS HOW a real welder works. Brother I'm with you. Great Video.
i usually weld on 2 inch pipe to 12 inch pipe doing chiller yard work or air handlers and my boss says i need to weld faster but i get 0 leaks almost ever and keeps saying hurry up and it demotivates. if i get 0 leaks why the heck is he complaining about anything
Drink you some milk. Great videos. I'm not a welder I'm a supervisor. I hate fitters. NCCRE PIPE, BOILERMAKER, SCAFFOLD BUILDER. as a pipe fitter, my best teacher where welders. They will make you or break you. Thank you for the videos.

Amazing, I just learned the easy and best way to make saddles.

That’s pretty good eye balling I like that hammered tip trick I’ll have to try that

I’ll give it a shot

Most of it has Norm in it.

I appreciate that TDK
Good idea. I'll add that to my bag of tricks.
As always very informative !!
This will come in handy!!

That’s a good point I didn’t even know I did that I do about the same thing every time.
Fast and easy. Like it, good tip.
Glad you liked it!

Yeah I saw you hanging on to the Bucket 😂😂😂😂
I hope you keep safe and the pole barn holds up 😂
Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
Thanks for the tip. Will be using it
You bet!
That was cool - well done
Wish I had a salty teacher to learn from like you great channel
Great tip! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Glad you liked it!
Thanks, I learned something today. 😊
Nice torch work
I appreciate it
Dude, you're a genius!
Thanks man
That’s just a side affect of that thing called years of experience
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Very impressive!
Thank you! Cheers!
With a Harris propane torch you can cut the bottom side without turning it over.
Nice job!
good tip
You the man!
Where did you get those heavy duty saddles? I can only find/have only used the thin red ones.

Thank you 🎉
Nice job
Slick.👌
Awesome!!
Thanks!
Damn that was good!
You're awesome
Good one.
Thanks!
Great video!
That hamering on the vice was pure genius!
Buddy how dangerous/toxic is cutting or welding on galvanized metals?
Very . Just don’t do it if you can help it
Not sure if you've posted any videos on your workout regime, but I'd be curious.

I like that flattened out saddle, any suggestions for trying to flatten a longer piece without a vice, thanks ✌🏼
Brute force and ignorance 😂😂
You can weld the throat, and then beat the sides flush. Or you can heat it after you weld it and you don’t have to beat it is hard.
Just beat it… lol
@@TaylorWelding Ok Mr. Jackson
Can you take a video showing that pull out table? I’m fixing to build me one
Yes
You remind me of me
Damn, I'm thinking I dont need that black book for pipe fitting...
i usually weld on 2 inch pipe to 12 inch pipe doing chiller yard work or air handlers and my boss says i need to weld faster but i get 0 leaks almost ever and keeps saying hurry up and it demotivates. if i get 0 leaks why the heck is he complaining about anything
They’re always gonna say hurry up
@@TaylorWelding i can only weld as fast as the rod burns brother
Drink you some milk. Great videos.
