    I just wanna say thank you. I’m a body man /frame man for 30+ years I have solidcore MiG welders. I decided to buy the Yes 135 flux core MiG welder so I can weld up some stainless steel exhaust with the stainless flux core wire. I never welded with the fluxcore before, I just want to say thanx for recommending the yes Flux core mig welder I’m impressed after practicing with correct wire stick out this welder is awesome for MiG and stick welding 👍👍

    Hey, BB. Was running out of welding gas today, so I switched over to the Flux machine. I have the Yeswelder as well.
    I had my machine set around 90 as that seemed to be working. And my trigger hand was fast enuf today to not burn a lotta holes. Watching the video and see you were also set at 90, so I must of been doing something right😂
    Ok, back to the video for me...

    ❤ this, I’ve been using flux core (30 thou) for welding car sheet steel for over 20 years now, and though I’m not as slick as old Billy, it definitely gets the job done better than any other type of welding. The only mod I ever did to the welder (an old Lincoln flux core) was to install the 30 thou tip when I swapped to lighter gauge flux wire. I’m so happy you put this on, the local idiots will get a link to this video next time they speak up about how much better a mig is. The world is full of misinformation about welding, thank god you are putting correct info out there.

    Nice Billy . I love my Flux Core Welder , here is another trick I learned , if you have excessive spatter around your work area , turn the temperature setting up just a little more until you have almost no spatter and you will find it will also improve the penetration . Thanks for the vid .

    • @MUSTANGVERDE

    I talked to a welding professional at my welding supply store and he said that the small amount of flux inside that wire is burned up as it shields the weld you don’t have flux the way you would with a stick welder. You’re absolutely correct. Don’t listen to the idiots Billy.

    I've welded for almost 30 years. I've never flux core welded. What little bit I have done was thicker steel. Looks like you have it set up to where you're kinda spray welding for a flat weld and low wire speed so that it doesn't over penetrate, plus all that extra wire helps control the heat too. That's actually pretty smart. Use cheap wire and no gas because you're just going to grind it out anyways.
    For anyone looks bg for a good welder at a cheaper price than a Miller or Lincoln, Hobart handlers are good for the money. I think Miller owns them.

    Don't see why you're getting people talking about you using flux core, it's been around for years and you have shown it works.
    I converted my mig to flux core and as I told you about having used it for years. No. Gas blowing away in the wind as I weld outside always flux core is good.
    I use 0.8-0.9mm as I find in mine the 0.6mm wire roll unravels too easily.
    Great demo of stitch welding,Billy and it will last decades keeping these cars alive.
    As always my best to you sir. Nearly forgot I reversed positive and negative so my earth is positive and gun negative.

Mine is a bit old and clunky with a dial and a few switch's , cant really tell the amps as there is no read out ,but gets the job done.

    I've been a pressure welder for 40 years and I find billy extremely helpful for the body work I am trying now! I don't know if it would work on these welding machines but we had some dual shield welders on some sites and the spatter is reduced to almost zero. I suppose you could try leaving the settings for MIG welding and use flux core wire, not on this machine of course!

  • @jamesjansen8386
    @jamesjansen8386 15 дней назад

    The issue I have with flux wire is that it seems to be a bit harder than MIG . When grinding more care is required to avoid metal next to the weld . I do agree that the flux wire is easier than MIG for auto body repair.
    Thanks Billy you are spot on !

    • @OldBondoBilly
      @OldBondoBilly  15 дней назад +1

What amperage would you recommend using your stitch method on the 1/8" steel? I saw you mentioned in another video. I like your style, attitude and thinking outside the box.

    I know you have been doing this forever-longer than me.. and I’ve been at it for 25yrs now myself 😰🤦🏻‍♂️😅; I’m curious what your opinion of the old oxy-acetylene way they used to teach compared to flux, as far as strength , warping, and workability? I have used MiG/gas, and flux for years now… very little tig.
    Oxy did seem to be a little more malleable when working the weld seams from what I remember-like if I needed to flatten out a seam area etc but It’s been several years since I used that equipment to be honest. I thought about digging all my equipment out awhile back-I may just be forgetting how much of a pain it was..lol
