cant believe I just watched someone build a tiny intercooler for 20 minutes... but the process, the care, and WELDS! tip of the hat to you sir, I've never welded in my life and this makes me want to do it.
Can confirm tig button is life changing. Got one for tacking stainless exhaust on the car, Now I don't even use a pedal anymore. So nice when you need to stand for a weld, or anything really.
99% of the time he is welding not propping on anything and is steady as a rock. That is very difficult to keep it straight as demonstrated here. Simply amazing.
I have a hard time freehand welding, I mig weld which I’m sure is even easier to freehand compared to tig. I build 53’ enclosed trailers like nascar stuff and truck pull stuff, shit for Porsche and Michelin, cooper tires, KTM, and other stuff, right now building pods for Three Olives, built stuff for Chick-fil-A! I’ve always wanted to learn to tig tho, we do some tig like aluminum handrails and fuel tanks, some stuff on the lift gates are aluminum to. Just don’t have the time to learn at work or even after work since we only have 1 morning shift
@@reaction9449 Look for some local use equipment or HTTP welder are not so expensive and good quality i bought one chinese tig for around 100$. Work on 120/240 i try the 120 at around 100 amp the breaker trip, i want to test it on 240 before i leave my current job. I try welding steel 3/16 thick at 100 amps on 120 and it wasn't enough maybe i should have try aluminum can.
You are simply brilliant. That welding is like a perfect decoration not a joining of two pieces of metal. Unbelievable! I have not seen this skill anywhere before. Thank you.
Came here randomly and although this was an amazing piece of work, i was absolutely captivated by the stubby scissors. FFS how did I make it through so many decades of life without realizing I really have no need for 80% of a scissors length. I am about to get medieval on about a half dozen scissors in my house.
this guys basic demonstration on how to use templates is amazing.... I used to work in a fabrating shop and would occasionally tig weld. it was one of the greatest learning experiences of my life.... thanks again for the good memories and flashbacks... TOP notch work !!!!!
Proud subscriber to page and website for a few yrs now. It's so much easier to learn when someone isn't talking and explaining every single little detail that is not necessary. My wife laughs about that. Keep up the awesome work.
Old, practiced hands can make works of art using the crappiest equipment. I knew a welder, Tan, in ChoLon, SaiGon, now retired, who specialised in heavy metal welding such as as railway wheels, nut & screw washing barrels, boat propellers (up to 1.5M), etc. Had muscles of steel and did all his work sitting on stools outside his workshop. His work was so good his customers ranged from boat yards to government agencies to industrial manufacturers - all done with an ancient welder and his talent acquired through years of work. May you have a long retirement Tan.
Wow from one welder to another, absolutely incredible! Your work is as good as it gets, not to mention TIG welding is the most difficult form of welding.
Acetylene is definitely the most difficult and after that I think stick. Open root is a shit ton easier with tig then stick. Most people can weld a nice 6g with tig but not with stick
Hi I just bought my first tig, as a complete novice this is exquisite work, I’d frame 🖼️ it , even if I get to a thousandth of your quality I’d be chuffed, lovely job and wish me luck
God this is some high quality work, all of the little steps you do to avoid any small aluminum particles from getting inside to the robot looking beads. Incredible. Love the video man.
I really like watching your fabrication and welding techniques, I also was, at one time well versed in TIG welding of Aluminum, I learned all that I could, while now I am an old timer, the old timers of my time, knew it only as Heliarc welding, they really knew their stuff and helped me to become ardent professional. Keep those videos coming, I think they help newcomers in learning the trade. Keep up the good work!
Im in school right now for welding. I've tried welding aluminum and dear God it's freaking difficult. I either blow through or can't get the bead started. Your welds are so freaking impressive and I'm working towards being on your level. Good job man
You should really ask yourself as to why watching this guy fab is so interesting. For me it's admiring a highly skilled craftsman who has perfected his craft create masterful pieces executed with perfection.
I bought one of the first inverter bread box china made tig units years ago (DC) only of course. Bought my first full size AC/DC unit late last year, the quality is okay but its doesn't have the adjustments you need to do the kind of work you see in this video. It seems like the quality of these inverter machines change and improve every 6 months or less and as I gain more confidence I want more capabilities in my machine. I will be ordering a new machine just as soon as I finish writing this. I've watched this video before but watching it again pushed me off the fence because I know the machine I have can't produce anything like what your doing. The new machine will have better processes but the operator will still have a long way to go. And, I'm only a hobbyist who has been stick and mig welding for 50 years. Love your work and your videos. Gotta run, I hear Amazon calling my name.......
Display of a true masters work!!!! I absolutely enjoyed watching this video and for that matter each and everyone of your other videos! The accuracy, consistency and quality of your work are second to none! Thanks for sharing and keep up the excellent work!
A lot of people don't realize that you can use air to cool your parts down with like stainless and aluminum to help with the warping that's one reason I like you is you know all those little tricks like that
Beautiful work this was my life at a job i had , tig welding Prototype aluminum heat exchanger's together , Weld, Machine and fabricate , in the auto industrie .awesome job with that torch and filler rod.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with problems doffing the electrode on those sheetmetal inside corner joints. I don't know what it is but outsides are so much easier! Thanks for the videos.
Those little tricks are awesome like using filler rod to make a bend template... I’m stealing that!!! You’re gonna go broke stacking all those dimes. Thanks for the videos!
I also have a bad case of mechanical OCD. it has its ups and downs. But generally the end result is pretty cool. Thanks for the vids. You’re a true pro.
This video is some straight Welding ASMR! Haahah! This was so cool to watch, I'm actually gonna start trade school in January for welding, and watching videos like this one gets me excited!!!
This guy's beads look like they were done by a machine.Hes not just a fabricator.Hes an artist.
Agreed
So fucking precise welding
Ikr I wasn't interested in the intercooler. I just saw the welds in the thumbnail and had to watch.
welding porn at its finest

TIG is the hardest, and he made that shit look easy
@@thatblackz1850 i think tig is easier than stickwelding lol, and more comfortable than mig/mag
@@mrmiyagi3533 At school we started with steel with 1/16 plate in T or V and we only fuse the 2 piece together after we learn how to feed.
@@mrmiyagi3533 stick is easy. Tig takes your entire body to coordinate.
Everyone should learn how to weld, do it, get a friend to show you or take a class, you won't regret it

Woah I wasnt expecting you here, I love your videos
How did i know i would see you here :) love watching both you guys work :)
I can operate a pedal with my knees, my elbows, my shoulder lol, … I never tried the tig button but I’ve heard great things.
99% of the time he is welding not propping on anything and is steady as a rock. That is very difficult to keep it straight as demonstrated here. Simply amazing.
Those start / stops are pretty sweet too, can't even tell. Been 15 yrs since I've done any AL -T.I.G. Bravo !!

He is actually is propping he using the ledge of the table to guide his torch hand.
He props literally the entire video what are you talking about? Lol
Aaron - that was absolutely magic! Every step was fast, efficient, and beautiful - even the camera moves!
Now that’s a compliment!🧑🏼🏭
Whoa! 6061 got the CCC stamp!! Certified Covell Compliment.
I don't own a welder or plan to buy one anytime soon but I watched all 20 minutes all the same. Respect to the craftsmanship!
it takes years to get to be this good
This video is a literal goldmine of smart clean fabrication techniques, not to mention tig techniques.. perfection
Wow 59 years old learned something new thank you I love the channel

I cant watch these fab videos without catching myself blinking to anticipate the arc flash as if I'm wearing my speed glass. Another great build man.
@Charlie Blanchard, do you have any adjustments on your helmet? A decent helmet with speed glass shouldn’t let you get flashed when you start the arc.
@@carportshenanigans5918 I was thinking the same thing. I used Speedglas and Miller products and never had to blink prior to the lens darkening.

I’ve watched this several times over the years. Still love watching & hoping that one day, I will be as good.
I'm on the fence about what method of welding to learn first- and oh man, watching your videos makes TIG look SO cool and neat.
Hi I just bought my first tig, as a complete novice this is exquisite work, I’d frame 🖼️ it , even if I get to a thousandth of your quality I’d be chuffed, lovely job and wish me luck
God this is some high quality work, all of the little steps you do to avoid any small aluminum particles from getting inside to the robot looking beads. Incredible. Love the video man.
I don't know what on earth are you doing, but I watched it hypnotised for 20 minutes!
Man, those restarts are beautiful! Great welding and fabrication but those restarts, you couldn't ask for them to be any better!
In my 0 years of experience as a professional welder, I must say this guy is pretty damn good.
The quality of these welds/beads is insane.
Don't be fooled by the gloves, that's a CyberDyne Robot...
I have the same gloves and my work looks is a proof that I'm not a robot!
Is that why it says 1909 on the gloves?
I was thinking the same :-)
Simple perfect!
equalsjim sky net building their terminators already 👀
I enjoyed this one a lot. It helped me understand how a double pass intercooler works.
Really liked your comment about test safety
Dude that welding! You're a freak!!! If only we could bottle up that skill and sell it. You have a gift.
That was great. Of all the fab stuff out there, I've never seen an intercooler made from a raw core to finished product.
I really like watching your fabrication and welding techniques, I also was, at one time well versed in TIG welding of Aluminum, I learned all that I could, while now I am an old timer, the old timers of my time, knew it only as Heliarc welding, they really knew their stuff and helped me to become ardent professional.

Welding with aluminum is actually really hard. But this guy has the skills.
Im in school right now for welding. I've tried welding aluminum and dear God it's freaking difficult. I either blow through or can't get the bead started. Your welds are so freaking impressive and I'm working towards being on your level. Good job man
It is annoying but just gotta get the reps in
I wish I had the patients to learn the skills this guy has. This is amazing work
Man, you have hands of gold !
Hands of God * 😂

Nice work! I miss building intercoolers and radiators. I worked for Bell Intercoolers for 8yrs. Gerhard was an awesome designer and boss.
Can’t be the only one that almost cried when he capped off that beautiful intercooler. Absolutely amazing craftsmanship.
I was thinking wait i will buy it, welds like that don't need testing 😔

Excelente amigo, gran mano para los fierros, enorme saludo desde mi humilde canal Uruguayo
Thanks from one tig welding to another tig welder.Cheers from Calgary Alberta
I really wish I could afford to have someone this talented make the intercooler I need for my turbo motorcycle. What a blessing that would be.
Man you are a master .I love watching people weld aluminum I wished I had learned how back in my younger days. Its awesome
This guy stacks dimes better than a bank roll. Damn
Legit the best TiG welder ive ever seen
Bought a tig button off your site today to help support your channel. Love the videos
Thanks Michael!
God bless, stacking dimes doesn’t even cover it.
“Since I only made this intercooler for demonstration” this guy is a machine!
I always admire watching your videos your level of workmanship is incredible
Loving the frequent uploads, thank you 👍
Awesome, and just for demonstration, thanks for taking the time to make the video. Your start stop tie ins are Phenomenal!
I can watch this all day long.
Very satisfying.
Looks awesome. I got a new air to water intercooler in the mail recently. It's cool to see what goes into building one.
Words cannot describe my love for this channel, Nohomo.
All I can say is that his seams from welding are in themselves works of art. Gives details an urban, technological and professional look.
A lot of people don't realize that you can use air to cool your parts down with like stainless and aluminum to help with the warping that's one reason I like you is you know all those little tricks like that
If I didn’t watch this video I would say those beads were machine done. Your work is amazing
you are very good!!
you are as precise as a robot
whoever put their thumbs down is just envious !!!

Seen a lot of welding in my short life but you do good work glad to see pride in the work you do nice job
Very good work and you make it look soo easy. Laying the welds down like it was nothing!
8:51 this guy is welding in front of a computer screen what a master !
Aluminium don’t spark so much
Thats the computer running the G code. Im telling you, this “guy” is a machine.
Those little tricks are awesome like using filler rod to make a bend template... I’m stealing that!!! You’re gonna go broke stacking all those dimes. Thanks for the videos!
The ability you have welding is amazing
Thank you for the pressure test and explanation.
Best 21 minutes I spent today! You are a master!!! I learn so much every time. Thank you for your videos.
Serious question; do you ever get bored with it or is it something you always enjoy? The skill and smoothness is very enjoyable to watch.
Other people might call him a welder, but I call him an artist
Learned a ton of useful tricks from one 20min video! Subbed!!
Awesome video. Very clean work. Like your little tricks for holding the parts up for welding. Definitely working smarter not harder.
Man so awesome. The little tips you pick up from watching are priceless
I love to see craftsmanship like this. Well done.
Dude.... Those welds... Are epic. Flippin' gorgeous.
to see this with simple hand tools & practice just amazes me! I can watch the magic happen all day.
I could pay just to watch you work. Respect 🙏🏾✌🏾
A true artist at work. Loved watching it.
It never fails to make me smile when I see your welds. It's just mind blowing.... seriously, me...no.. compute....
Top marks for your welding rhythm and camera work.
I like how you cut through the tube an plated it after, ill be trying that on the small ones. Saves blocking off the end tube all the time👍
Love your videos! Everytime I watch one I learn something new, thank you!
Great job - really neat beads on the weld. 👍 I like the tip for bending with the paper between the formers of the press. 🙂 John 🇬🇧
All I want to do is weld 6061 now, nothing else EVER!
This is the best looking intercooloer i've ever seen. seriously this shit is dope!
