    I've only been Tig welding for about two years. On aluminum, I always wear earplugs to drown out the background noises, I don't know if it's just calming or if it is because I can focus on the sound of the weld. Never really thought about it as far as the heat goes. Thanks and Good video!

    As always, you are THE MAN, Dusty. To help everyone out, and even offer free classes… you’re killin’ me smalls. You do your random acts of kindness with each video you put out. Between you and Jody (weldingtipsandtricks), my welding skills in general (particularly my Tig skills) increased 10 fold. We leave this world with what we came into it with, and with what we leave behind as a reminder of our time here. Love your work, and love your life brother!

    If I bare-finger grab a just-dipped tungsten to replace it, I am thinking it will take almost no time at all. Because when my fingers realize how hot that thing is, they'll be anxious to get the job done really quickly. 😀 More seriously, good reminder to not just press on regardless when the tungsten is fouled, Dusty.

  • @johnsykes706
    @johnsykes706 2 месяца назад +1

    I'm self taught but have benefited greatly from your advice, I run 1 second pre flow, 5 seconds post flow and do not move the torch but the one thing I notice that a lot of guys do is they turn their gas on and send it, all very well if your gas set up is perfect but if you have even a tiny leak there are plain atmospheric gases in your lines, I always run my gas prior to welding with no arc to prevent poor starts and tungsten blow outs. Not so much of a problem on a personal machine but vital on a workshop machine that gets abused by people that may have NFI.

    I love how you can change out your tungsten so fast when it is cold. Show me your swap times directly after dipping in the puddle. Unless using pliers, 10 seconds would be fast. You are a great teacher. Keep on teaching those who will listen to wisdom.

      Yes actually, you can set this up with your up slope, I would recommend setting this for at least a couple seconds. You will have to be as gentle as you can with the scratching, but then once it initiates keep the arc in nice and slow, and then as it comes in over a couple seconds it should help outwith this🤙
