I’m just a noob still practicing different wire feed techniques while watching the TV. I gotta say that I find Kane’s feeding technique easier than several others I have tried. With his grip I can feed the wire smoothly and very predictably. He is THE MAN with his skills, unbelievable.
@@paramandans Lmao! "It's really not that good" are you fucking high or something? I've been in this Industry for 30 years, and I know some of the best Welders in this Country, and a few others, and this Guy is the Real Deal. Some of the foremost Authorities on the subject matter are amazed at his Skillset, and his Techniques. So, why don't you post some of your Badass Tig Videos for us to see how much better you are, so we can agree with your "expert assessment of him not being really all that good"??? The anticipation will be killing me, so please hurry. :)
Rush Kane, is an absolute True Master Craftsman. I've known a ton of skilled Tig Welders, but have never seen anyone as smooth and consistent as kanekid.
I appreciate seeing skilled yet humble craftsmen. I worked with a stainless/specialty welder years ago who was a pompous ass. I couldn't stand the guy. He eventually left and his replacement was the complete opposite. Way better welder and super relaxed.
Good video! I haven't TIG welded in decades but used to TIG weld thin-wall stainless food-grade piping runs with sanitary welds, always Argon flow in the pipes, using a very basic Lincoln transformer AC/DC welder and buzz box and 2% Thoriated tungstens. In-place welding at all angles, no luxury of spinning or moving the parts. It sure was fun once you got the hang of it. Great to see you and guests sharing the knowledge.
If you want to run a purge off one bottle of argon all you need is a "Y" with a valve on each side. Open the valve for the torch all the way and set your torch flow and then use the other side to run the purge. Won't get an exact readout for your actual flow rate this way but it gets close enough you can't tell any difference and it's a cheap alternative to a separate bottle and regulator.
Almost an exact 00:00:25 second dab intervals! Basically, the dudes sewing with his filler wire... That's pretty wild to be that consistent and moving that fast towards the cliff!
its always kind of cool to hear people welding with monel or inconel. I work at smc/ inco alloys that started it all. I make it every day from wire to plate
wow, man, well done. I used to love the small work too, felt so darn satisfying to be able to do something the rest of the shop cannot. Well done young sir.
In fact, no matter how you hold the filler wire, there are always three points of support. You put pressure on the midpoint and the wire is pressed against the other two. At each of the end points, the pressure is less than at the middle. And if now you move the midpoint along with one of the end points, then the friction at these points will ALWAYS be greater than in the remaining one, and the wire will move together with these two points. Thus, you can almost endlessly invent different grips and practice them.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Love watching your videos and so glad to see this next generation of fabricators do their thing. @Kane - you've demonstrated a mastery of skills many people have spent their lives chasing...congrats & thanks for sharing.
When purge welding longer sections of tube the setting of the purge pressure must be accurate , to little the weld will be concave and to much convex , so settings is important ! When we do food grade we don't use filler wire only fused hence the purge pressure important !
Uncle Bob, I'm dying to see you working on thin material. Can you please include such work in both MIG Monday and TIG Friday anywhere soon? I'm sure there're lots of viewers here who do automotive body/exhaust/intake welds, not your ordinary heavy duty piping and submarine heavy duty structural constructions. Kane, your work looks terrific! Outstanding!
Naw, uncle Bob, you haven't. I really mean a thin something, like 0.8mm which most of the car body panels are sized of (sorry, I don't know that gauge it is, I am metric). I have seen every episode of Mig Monday's since the days when they were run by Granpa MIG and there was a single onefeat you when you worked on something of 2mm thickness or about.
funny thing is, when I first started Tig 15-20 years ago, "side filling" was easier and neater for me, I couldn't keep a consistent width feeding straight in or stay on edge of pool; used to drive people crazy and took me 3 or 4 years to do it the "traditional" way...
Great video Bob. Interesting use for aluminum foil to say the least. Here is one for you. A buddy of mine is building from scratch, some type of European race car that was made back in the 1930's or so. He said there are only two existing in the world today. He is determined to make a 3rd. It is all aluminum, frame, body, hinges, everything. Currently it is about 75% complete. This he does out of his garage with no "special" (that should read as EXPENSIVE) shop tools. He is using BOA welding methods to weld it all together with some type of aluminum welding rod. Have you had experience using a torch with aluminum rod to weld aluminum together? If so, perhaps you can put together a video explaining it and what you are using. Thanks again for all the well thought out and planned videos.
I learned on stainless so I’ve always found it easy. Not a welder by trade though. It’s the welding 10mm thick to 1mm plate or welding 0.5mm plates that’s the hardest. Thick material is easy. Top welding though from someone who clearly knows his stuff!
Great welding Kane kid!! reminds me a lot of you, when i was your age my man!! Master Bob thank you for the great videos!!! hope the young guns learn somethi'n!! Mahalos -Bubba!
You can weld aluminum foil together if you fold a piece of it in two and then change polarity...it'll eat the tungsten but it will work. Basic. Also, you can pick up a quarter or nickle with a cutting torch if the head is clean enough.
I have been in the craft over thirty years. I have ran a lot of SCH 10 big bore food grade T-304 no purge but solar flux backing. 37° bevel no land butted up no gap which renders a good flush root, no sugar. I was wanting to know if you have ever used solar flux on any of your projects and how do you like using it? the aluminum foil works great in a pinch but plastic tube caps are excellent for purging super heater tubes.
Never went over the amps he hits when doing the exhaust piping. Did he stay at 66 like before? Less more? Only asking because I have my first stainless exhaust job next month. Going to fab my cousin a custom SS exhaust. I was aiming more towards 35 - 40 amps but I’m starting to think that’s a bit low.
Very nice video,very educational. It's nice to see different welders showing their techniques and skills. I always enjoy your vids. Thank both of you for sharing with all of us. Dan
Beautiful welds. It would have been nice to get a better look at the penetration. It is a little hard to see at 12:52, that brief glance looked like incomplete penetration.
I saw no penetration, those fast micro-dabs don't feed enough filler, he has a long arc and is at like a 45 degree angle... fine for instagram I guess but not for any parts that matter.
Good job guys im also trying to study for it im on my 1st month welding instructor is known in the world he is old man but he welds perfectly has certificates from germany saudi arabia and more he works with all machines ill be studying the TIG welding its cool
I definitely want to learn how to weld this caps onto the small tubing. It's exactly why I purchased my tig gear. But, he had some end buttons in this video in one image... Where did those come from?
I curse those youngsters with their good eyesight and excellent fine motor skills! LOL, not really. Just makes me wish I still had a young man's body, but with my current wisdom . Between my deteriorating eyesight and deteriorating motor skills I just can't do that fast dab action and have such consistent overlaps anymore. A big thumbs-up to Kane! Those are some seriously good TIG chops!
ive seen a paste made up using alcohol and flux powder used to combat carbides from forming on the id seemed to work fairly well with the thin wall stainless and kept the id really tidy
What do think about the special flux made for putting on the back side of Stainless steel welds when you don't have a way of back purging? Great video, very informative especially about using pulse
Love it. Would dig even more yap about the the settings, but I'd probebly mess up with those exact settings anyway. Been trying to do that "bunny ears" style wire feed ever since I saw a video about it here on the tube, and I think it's the best way if I ever get the hang of it :D I'm watching this a few more times
The best thing is that you both share your knowledge to the public.

Yep. Just like in most trades, the good and great ones don't have to prove it to you overtly. Everyone already knows by the work.
Kanekid is awesome. It's nice to see him talk on a video and now he he is hanging with Bob Moffett.
He’s the man! Please keep that dude around as long as you can!
The guest videos, especially featuring those who have a large social media following in the welding/fab community, are fantastic. Keep it going.
split150 We plan to. We've got some more good ones coming
I found this video to be very helpful. More of this guy please. He's got the gift, no doubt about it.
The kid has skills, nice to see young guys that are taking up the trades. Well done, I feel better about the future.
Kand Kid is fantastic at welding, shows his true level of craftsmanship!
Thank you Bob for making this video with Rush. Rush is an amazing welder with skills that are above many.!! Good work guys!!!

The "kane grip" is a beast when doing vertical up welds! Takes a bit of practice but its a useful skill to have! Thanks for passing on the knowledge✌
Luckily that was my grip when I started. Never heard of Kane kid but I can’t do standard grip. I even walk with this grip
🤘🏼👊🏼

Thanks for a great video @kanekid. Nice to see humility from someone with such tremendous skills.
Never judge a book by its cover! Amazing welder for high quality cosmetic surgery welding ! True artist ! Fantastic quality 👌! Gifted !
WOW! This guy has some extremely rare gifts, just phenomenal skills. Thanks for bringing him on and sharing his talents.

I worked in the sanitary process piping business, and we just butt welded .062 wall S.S. No wire, no bevel. 45 amps full argon purge.
I don't remember a vid I enjoyed this much in a long time.... thanks to both of you for the time and effort.
Hope to see you both at fabtech
Not sure if they said it but hes got a youtube channel too. He doesn't get a ton of views but totally deserves it. Lot of awesome welding and editing.
young man with cool hair won't get burned knows what he is doing
Great video Bob,,,, looks like an old dog just learned some new tricks... Great to see the Youngs Ones doing so good.....
I could watch these two gentlemen weld all day long 🙂✌

The dudes hair gonna catch 🔥 fire
Dude's a rockstar welder with a rockstar haircut...and a rockstar name....
LOL.....You think that's good?
That hair is gone if u weld any hotter than that..lol
@@paramandans If he’s a good welder, it certainly isn’t bad.
@@Guitarplayer724 ....I haven’t welded in over 16 years and I can still out weld him on my worst day.
@@paramandans Sure ya can bud. I’ve never welded a day in my life and I could out weld you and the rockstar on my worst day while blind folded.

Agree with previous comment. A pro will to share and help others. Thank you. Michael
Always good to see other techniques from different eyes.
Great to see the young guys so artistic in the trade that is where it all started for me.
Super video, all settings very usefull information here.
Two welding superstas!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!

Dam Bob, your gonna start your own expendables team! Great video!
That Dam Hippie Kane is OFF the HOOK !!
Amazing welding Skills Dude , keep up the GOOD Work !!
LOL
One of the best videos ever watch this year
Love the videos but could you show some production type welding I mean 100s of parts per day or hour what techniques would you use for this
This dude is so good they named a feeding method after him the cane method damn 💯
Thank you for uploading this stuff. What a huge help
Mans got a talent with that fast dab, I like that a lot!
LOL......Yeeeeeeeeah
Loving this bringing instagram famous people in! Brilliant!
Hopefully you can get someone in to show some fancy weave/ dab beads 👍🏼👍🏼
Amazingly fast!
Cool to see such talent. I'm just a machinist with an old Airco tig learning to weld AC/DC. The pulse is in my foot!
Amazing Skills!

Should Thorium MSR reactors be approved by the DOE, this welder will be worth his weight in gold.👍

thanks for your teaching
Another great video as always. I appreciate everything that you post.
Love to see how he prepares his tungsten. Wondering if he does anything different?
Just posted👌🏼
Nice, thanks for sharing. Love to know how this young man got his start. Good work.

Watch the video again... it was discussed. 130amps at a push angle, very quick weld
Respect the skills and love of the trade. Well done.
A fire extinguisher must be on the table next to me if I'm going to weld with hair that long!
Damn , you make it look so easy .
Very nice work
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, really learned a lot here plus really worth watching.
Gotta love them dabs…nabbit! So you gotta love the technique. This old dog just learned a new trick!😮
I need friends in this field. I also work in welding and I love it.

I can't wait to do some stainless welding wtih my everlast tig welder.
strong post flow on pulse.. be cool to see some straight heat with some color and no sugar..
Good video keep up the good work
That was some fine welding. I wish I was that proficient with my powertig welder.
This will help me on my test in 6days!
WOW TOO COOL HE IS GREAT WELDER !!
Good job guys im also trying to study for it im on my 1st month welding instructor is known in the world he is old man but he welds perfectly has certificates from germany saudi arabia and more he works with all machines ill be studying the TIG welding its cool
