You can use laser cutting, laser cleaning and, laser welding. Some advantages of laser technology are environment friendly, low cost, more efficient, easy to operate.
Coming from the states I appreciate everything you said in the first 5 mins. Most people ignore the long term affects of welding. With that said I think you awesome in your craft. Your fast, precise, and a great welder. Much respect
Excellent video. Keep up the good work. You are an excellent welder sir. I've been in pipe fabrication for 32 years. I've learned a few tricks from you. Thank you for the excellent videos sir.
been a welder myself, now im a QC-Inspector. Have to say you did a good job. Welding with one hand and use the other one to turn the pipes yourself is not easy. Keep doing what you doing.
If you are looking for high-quality welding machines, please contact me. We are a manufacturer with a history of 32 years, focusing on the production and research and development of manual arc welding machines.
Really appreciate the words about safety and avoiding fumes. Id love to get a setup like you have for work but we'll see if they're keen on paying for the 3m papr system, or at the very least splitting the cost. It's a little over 2k here atm. I like using the air filter respirator most of the time but there's times where it's too hot and you just skip it.

Safety is so important. To often this is skipped over and the end result is many years down the line when all of a sudden your lungs, etc., are shot and you are saying if I only knew. You can not depend on your employer to keep you safe, it is the workers responsibility for his own safety and no amount of money compensates for loss of good health. Allways enjoy your videos, always go away learning something knew and never fell that I could have spent my viewing time in a better manner. Clarence keep up the good work.
your comments about just holding the fitting and tacking it is so true. ive seen way to many guys screwing around with jigs trying to get the fit right. 45 min later they get it, when it coulda been done in 5 min.
Hi Calvin, Want to pass along a great feature that stops the warping experienced in pipe welding (works on A-36 plate & structural members too). I was shown by a very savvy weldor/fitter. He always had a bucket of water & a rag nearby. Apply the wet rag in the right places...this retards the warping. This works on A-105 & s/s pipe too. Hope this helps, Pete 🙂
Thanks bro.. Safety is a major factor.. I suffered hospitalisation and numerous doctor visits and lost shifts because of chronic sinusitis and terrible sporadic headaches because of exposure to fumes from using 2.4mm Open Arc Flux Core and Low Hydrogen electrodes (MMA) Welding for nearly 6 hours a shift. Only to find out from an excellent ENT Specialist that I was suffering because of over exposure
Everything you do i f****** proper as hell my dude.just ran across ur channel. id pay for this rather than netflix all day. Good shit man. I like to watch just to learn some new techniques. Thank you very much.
Just an enthusiastic home fabricator here, but I bought a ventilated helmet a few months back prompted by your example. Safer and a lot more comfortable. Cheers for the great content.
Like the work your doing and the safety rules you follow, that being said, I'm not a professional weld but a student in the AWS online classes have passed the ( welding fundamentals I and going on to welding fundamentals II ). Can say that Calvin knows what he's doing and how to do it safely. Thank you Calvin
Funny stuff i do the same thing to gas nozzles with a center punch. I also use abicor ceramic spray on my contact tips and gas nozzle makes things last a lot longer.
Welding in America it is really crazy how no one wears a respirator but almost every euro video I see they have them on. Good on you, I should get one too
Yeah, over here in the states, I'm an ironworker. We weld with stick and innershield wire. The wire is an irritant and the second you breath any spec of dust from it, it will make you cough. Our safety and procedure for it is that because we're outside, that's good enough to protect you from getting respiratory problems 😂
I also agree on the importance of fume extraction and protecting your lungs, even when grinding/sanding. Do you have any videos on what particular brand/setup you recommend?
Good work my man I am a welder myself so I understand first hand everything your talking about and I think it needs to be talked about more because not enough is being done to protect us love the video as always great content I hope what you call making money is enough because you definitely have a talent and if your looking in the right places there is money to be made all the best 👍
Sadly here in South Africa with the economy kinda dwindling. Many workshops quite slow with an infrequent workflow. So it's really something to be in a spot where production is quite steady. But really good content man.. Keep them coming 👍
pay by the inch is sweet sometimes. Doesn't happen too often here in canada, but the last one i did was $20/inch. so one 10" butt weld would make me $200. I was doing 100" of weld a day and invoicing $2000/day... they thought they'd save money this route, but it kind of bit them in the ass. lol
Appreciate Your safety. Years ago after welding copper and it made me sick the solution was to drink milk. They have come a long way in safety equipment.
Great video. Im wondering how you like up a 45°elbow when the pipe is a couple of mm smaller as it don't line up in angle iron?? Any tips are great im working at a welder fabricators and get some elbows to weld to pipe. Keep up the good work. Thankyou.
Great videos! Great know how! Your skills and experience are on a well developed level. It´s such a pleasure to watch you handle your work. And i appreciate your words about the work safety..respiratory.. -This topic is coming way too short out on the field as well as on most youtube channels. I am happy that i ran into your channel. Keep it up bro! All thumbs up! Liked and subscribed. Greetings from Germany
I just started welding as a hobby (in the US) and I immediately got a (used) PAPR. My cousin has respiratory problems from welding and I want to avoid that
I always screw a plug into any socket or stabbing i welded on, it comes from when i was an apprentice, i was asked to weld a socket on a live pipe late on a Friday afternoon so maintenance could run an extension off it on Saturday morning, i rushed it so i could shoot off to go out for a good time Friday night, i came in Monday morning to a real ear bashing, the socket had deformed in the heat and they couldn't screw the pipe in to it, not only does the plug absorb some of the heat you know it's good to go when you screw it out.
Barley starting out mig pipe practice at technical college and they past couple weeks I’ve felt my breathing get a little worse, might have to take you up on the respirator advice
@@ARCONEWELDING The best advise I can give you stay away from shops. I always worked outside in construction, refinery ,etc. I am 81 now, worked in Canada ,but mostly in and around Toronto and travel jobs . Nice welds!
I Never use a respirator when MIG welding regular carbon steel. I'm sure it's bad for me, but I would hate to be wearing that rig all day. If I'm doing something like aluminum I'll wear a filter. Just my preference. Yes, I'm American xD
Its true for some occasions, if i welded the flanges the job basically becomes a weld neck job and my Fabrication will need to be perfect with no room for error with a 3mm Tolerance, atleast if my fit up isnt perfect i can catch it on the flanges
All that time apprentice then getting a job you are woth every penny,im a lorry driver in uk and the work now is pick ya own £20 an hour is easy at the moment, you stay safe Calvin,O by the way your one good welder very neat job,keep up with the tig i like to see them vids im getting better but at 65 im too late to change now.
Ah the classic oxy cutting torch/ hammer multi tool. We've all been there. What root gap do you use, im assuming that's all sched 40 in the video. Nice work
@@ARCONEWELDING ha ha ha. Nice. It's been nearly 7 years since I've done any mig pipe work, been doing stainless tig for the past 18 months. A nice change
I work in this field in Northern Cal, you’re teaching me a lot and I agree on respiration and health. We work by the hour here, I’m interested to know if you belong to a Pipefitter/welder trade Union or guild.
Thats so odd, my price is calculated per inch only. We get about £3 per inch and straights and little spools are the best. If i done 100 inches alone id make £300-£350, however its divided by every fitter and welder. Luckily there arent too many in my shop and we all work at pretty much the same speeds. So a good day could be like £400 each but some can be really bad.
Mate you're a gun, I love these videos! Iam just starting my business after 12 years on the tools, watching how efficient you work is going to help me big time if I can sercure some pipe work. I didn't realise i've been putting on slip on flanges like a d!ck head for years hahaha.
I think it was just an exampleof how his price list works as his employer didn't want him to talk about the actual prices he makes, no way would that spool be 16.50, you'd make that in one 4inch butt.
@@bobskobob276 Its just each type of weld is worth a different amount. So a 2 inch socket he might get paid £8. A 4 inch butt weld might be £20, a 4inch flange £15 an 8 inch butt £35 etc. Butts usually cost more than flanges the bigger the pipe the more money. His employer will pay him per weld he does and each type of weld will have its price eg. Above. You add all the monetary value of the welds which you completed in that day and there is your day's pay.

Yep. The only time I make a jig is when I’m fitting several of the same thing. I usually make the jig while making the first one.

You should try Loctite SF 7900 Ceramic Shield on ur nozzles. We run metalcore wire daily as well. Only need to clean and re apply 2-3 times in a day.
I use a different brand of ceramic anti spatter and it works wonders
coat the tip and shroud with white marker it turns to carbon and prevents adhesion of spatter

True that, just like welding a nut on etc. Always seems to shrink that little bit, on cooling.
