Thank you very much for this video. I was struggling with a project until I found your video. I thought I would need helium to weld my aluminum but I couldn't find anyone who would sell it to me. I used these techniques and was able to finally get decent welds on aluminum with my small machine without helium. Thank you!!
Awesome glad it was helpful
Using a 50/50 argon/helium mix will help with heat also.
EXCELLENT video ESPECIALLY the pre and post heating .
Great details!
Thank you. Very informative.
Outstanding.......keep up the great work......Paul down in Florida
Can you do a tutorial on tig welding a piece of 1” aluminum plate into a slot on a piece of 2” aluminum plate
Plates making perpendicular contact (t shape)
I have a project where every last weld is on 1” thick or more metal that slots together through 1” deep slots
nice work!
Very good. If one reads the max thickness the welder manufacturer states for their machine, that’s for a single pass.
Great video. Good tips.
Thanks 🙏 means a lot 😎👊
Comment for algorithm. Great info!
Appreciate it 😎👊🙏
You ARE a genius absolutely a genius
Some small 200 amp machines with left Tig does not have AC/DC balance why?
Just subscribed to the channel 👍
Great stuff! Keep it coming!
Wish you explained at the start of youre video that you were not only showing a technique on welding heavy gauge aluminium but you were using two different types of filler rod.. 4043 and 5356 on opposite sides! Like i said, great content 👌 and im a 18 year veteran in the welding and fabrication community! From the uk🏴 cheers brother
Thanks for the support 🙏👊😎
Thanks!
Thank you for watching 🙏😎👊
Good stuff!!! Unfortunately, I was informed that Johnson's paste wax has been discontinued.#bummer
Yeah I just found that out this week as well. It's a real bummer trying to find an alternative.
How much will the welder go on with 120v

What torch size and gas did you use? Good video and thanks for making this.
This was a number 17 and straight 100% argon. Thanks for watching
another great video! I was thinking you were going to switch to DC negative and use helium when you said butt weld but you still got it done.
With your welder being and inverter, are you running it on a 110 std outlet or do you have it in and actual 240 outlet?
110 outlet with 12 gauge wire on a 20 amp breaker
@amcustomfab Awesome thank you. So I think I see what the issue is that I'm running into. I need a bigger tungsten and to heat the part up more then.
Can you tell me what your gas flow settings was to weld this thick aluminum?
Probably between 15 and 18 cfh
@@amcustomfab Great. Thank you for your reply.
WTF sound during voice over at 10:20 ?
I didn't notice anything
@@amcustomfab entire voice-over is way quieter than the live audio. starting at 9:57 volume decreases until I cant hear it at all about 8 seconds later.
