I've been TIG Welding for more than 50 years. In fact, it's all I know how to do. I can't Stick-Weld for s***. I don't like Wire-Welding of any kind ... Simply put, "I don't like sparks". TIG is clean, quiet and versatile. That said, this channel is GOLD and is the ONLY welding channel I watch. "Why" you say? ... here, I'm reminded of things I actually knew from experience, as well as the occasional "I could have had a V8" moment ... referring to "duh" ... and the ODNT thing.
I'm the polar opposite, I can stick and mig weld but can't weld tig for s##t
I'm wanting to build my own custom exhaust, I don't want to use mig, I sure as hell ain't using stick so think I'm going to have to bite the proverbial bullet and start practicing tig welding lol
Dusty once again, I'm humbled by your honest approach to your channel. Most people would tell very little and say "Sign up to my online lessons to learn how to tig" Your down to roots approach helps us part time/ hobby welders so much. I often have to tig weld at work in a maintenance role but I also bought an old dc tig to use at home, partially to get some torch hours under my belt so I can do nicer welds at work. And so I can fabricate nicer welds working on my own stuff. I appreciate your channel and the way you do it.
Took me about 5 months of welding in HS welding class and also showing up early every day during lunch to be good enough to get a job doing it. The first thing my teacher had me do with each weld process was scribe lines on 5"x5" flat plate and run just the torch no filler over them till they were all a consistent width. This got the whole class good at controlling heat with the pedal before ever using filler.
that sounds like a good trick for me to practice! - I’m totally new … so, yeah, I need to put in the hours doing this, exactly. 💜👍
I am a high school teacher here in Canada teaching welding metals fab. Just received a Miller Syncrowave 210;what a killer little machine! Now to master this before the fall semester when I need to teach the kids 🤪
Wow, the most informative video on TIG I've ever watched. Finally someone with a clean and clear statement about TIG welding. This is the most honest presentation I've watched to date after a couple of years plus watching TIG videos.
I really like your teaching and your videos. As a hobby welder with a transformer AC/DC TIG and stick machine, struggling with the looks of the work and the torch after just a short run, I am finally realizing that I must practice long and hard on many coupons before I do my next repair job, or try to be creative for myself. Practice is everything.
Thanks Dusty, great video. I'm a beginner-intermediate and it's great to get reminders about the basics. And you are very positive and encouraging - I love that.
Keep grindin Dusty. The quality of this video was top notch and I know you're making a run at youtube full time and its showing.
Videos are looking dope bro! you are taking the teaching and videos to the next level.... Not to mention that new table 😍 Good to see you man glad yt decided to share you with me again
Your channel is my secret spice to being the best in my welding class at school, thanks for the info my guy.
Awesome episode Dusty - I can't wait to heal up from some much needed surgeries and then sign up for your course. 👍👍😎👍👍
i like the framing of these videos, the set is great with the change in lighting.. and the cuts to your "internal monologue" or whatever you consider it are hilarious
Thank you it’s so good that some makes so easy and straight
Thank you so much for your videos. they have really helped me . I learn more everyday!
Like always my friend excellent video thank you so much. I learning more washing your videos that with my teacher here in New York. I keep the good work and keep teaching us again thank you so much. God bless you.
The new welding table looking sharp.
A video on welding a pipe would a be much appreciated, and a 90° corner also. Its where I'm struggling the most
Hey dusty best advice I've seen on here for a long time . Love the golf analogy.. as a biker that is the epitome of all the gear and no idea.
I bought a German made set up about 3 year ago with intentions of using more than mig . Boy is it an eye opener however as a lot say practice works , I'm still at the base level but it's fun trying to get all the things coordinated at the same time . 1st few attempts came out pretty good flat straight runs. I've found cleaning can be an issue sometimes however it's a learning curve . Thanks for the advice .
you have been a great help, thumbs up 🙂 chill and fill
I will never be embarrassed by my big clunky no advance feature transformer machine. It's been a hard worker for over 30 years and I expect it to keep going another 30. I'm not as good as it is. And features won't make me a better welder. They just become a crutch and excuse when things go wrong.
(White Face Dialarc 250 HF)
Thanks for the quality content!
Dusty another very informative video, thank you so much.
Super conseil de démarrage pour mettre toutes les chances de son côté.
Merci
Another great analogy would be a guy buys a brand new sports car and thinks he's going to kick ass on a road racetrack. As someone who spent a lot of time and money learning how to drive on a racetrack, i can almost guarantee dude with the brand new corvette and an inflated ego will almost always end up in a tire barrier (or worse) on their first track weekend. Even drivers who know what they're doing are not immune to the curse of complacency. The guy who taught me track driving was killed in a crash on the same track he taught me back in 2017.
A while back a friend loaned me his $1200 multiprocess (yeah...) Lincoln TIG and a bottle of argon i'm still feeling in my back from loading into my truck, and I agree it's definitely not easy. I watched a ton of videos and still had issues. The biggest of which was one of the most elementary of concepts... electrode distance. For some reason i had it in my head that farther was colder. Once i got back on track, i was able to make some not-horrible welds. I'd love to spend some time with a TIG that had high frequency start. The machine only had lift-start and while i got pretty decent at it, i got tired of resharpening my tungsten pretty quick.
My one tip would be don't let people know you weld at home!!!!
Why
Why
Because they all want things welded for them but nobody wants to pay you for it, right?
Tell everyone, 80$ an hour😂
@@randybobandy9828 not true? Cuz if u get a fair price for u and for them then itsa a plus plus
Yeah, discovered that the hard way 😏. One bottle of argon later found my collet body was loose. Been paying more attention as to the shape of my torch and things have been going a lot better 😊. In all that I also found that having 3 or 4 electrodes preground is a big help too 🤣.
Thanks man. Cheers!
I grind the whole pack and keep it on the weld table next to me because stopping to grind tungsten is a huge buzzkill.
I have been watching your videos for about 1 and half years and still have not picked up a torch. Im going to change that. I picked up an AHP 203xi and will be practicing what I have learned from your videos and what I want to weld is not and easy starting point. I and getting into my motorcycle building and need to weld on the frame and tig welding looks awesome. I cant wait... all Im waiting on is my argon to come in. Wish me luck.
Interesting, I'm looking at a Lincoln 250/250 tig, mainly for stick welding, but having the ability to tig would be nice.
I have a TIG225X. I am happy.
Thank you for your channel. What do you think about the Lincoln Square Wave 200 for a beginner?
I am learning TIG welding, but as someone who has some experience teaching (college English, art and jewelry making, musical instrument instruction), your approach to teaching (pedagogy) is right on. Learn skills, but learn what they mean and why they mean what they mean - content becomes meaningless without context. For a student, that can make the difference between someone who gets to a certain place and hits a wall versus the individual who finds their own feet and climbs to the next level. I am definitely interested to check out your course.
Do you have any videos on welding thin mild steel , not every thing I weld with my old gold Star transformer is aluminum. Love your channel.
Great video Dusty. Lots of good info as always. 🪙
I love my old transformer miller. Also if you weld aluminum with thoriated tungsten on a transformer machine it doesnt deform like a pure tungsten would.
Outstanding content,thanks🤗😎🤗😎
Ugh I so need to get my shielding gas. Been doing mig and finally bought a primeweld 225 tig 18 months ago. Only took it out of the box to make sure it turned on and put it back. Funny how life gets in the way of what you want to do
I recently acquired a tig machine to learn how to weld aluminum and stainless steel, searching on RUclips I found your tutorial and I would like to know if you have the classes from the most basics and how to adjust the machine correctly thanks from Puerto Rico Rafael.
Just what I needed to hear today.
I started in around 2000 with a three phase miller and would have a scrap piece to ball my tungsten and now use a primeweld 225x and can weld anything with it but the younger generation needs help to get to a good level of understanding and he does a decent job so stop cutting others down and judge yourself on what you’re lacking and not bringing to the table
Hey guy, I have a miller syncrowave 180 tig/stick welder,when I got the machine I noticed that it had a 20 second shutoff for the gas,is there a tig handle with a shutoff valve on it the also use the foot pedal,any help would be appreciated
Do you have any suggestion for a good regulator? The one that came with my Vulcan tends to change it's flow rate in the middle of welding.
I have a Vulcan 200 is good enough To learn with ?
Any chance of doing a video on lift arc/ start tig welding? Just tips on how to tack ect. Got my first tig welder and chose this because it was cheap, will be upgrading to a HF down the track, thanks mate!
Just barely scratch the metal to start it or touch it down then rock it back on the cup. I have to do this even with HF start sometimes if my ground isn't perfect.
also a good fact of tip for pipe the tig tourch is melting the matal to getter with no filler only use filler gaps
ok, if my weld looks goog from bouth sides, but thungsteng is sharp no mater i have done is just stay shap, does i am geting anything wrong?
What cheap tig welder would you recommend for beginners
I kept having dirty tungsten when welding aluminum, then I increased the post flow to 8 seconds, and used smaller cup so I can get by with a lower gas flow, and the dirty tungsten problem went away.
Is your class strictly for aluminum or does it carry over to steel and stainless? I have a very basic idea but need to develop better habits to make better welds
Dusty what is your opinion on the Eastwood digital tig 200 for tig welding?
Loving the dark aesthetic brother
2:15.. this was my biggest issue when I first got started I thought it was something else and all it was was not putting in seals properly and blocking my argon from flowing the way that it needs to
If I am going to be welding a lot of aluminum where speed is of upmost importance (while still getting a solid weld), is it best to just learn MIG with spool instead of TIG?
Quality friend from Scotland cheers ( Slanj) as we say.
By what hand side, we hold a torch, or rods ???????????????????????
Hola estimado! Exelente videos!!!!!! Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos!!!!!! Saludos desde Argentina!
I started off with gas welding, so I found tig far far easier then stick or mig. but it is still a brute force weld, not very pretty but solid and reliable. Advantage of that you learn all about torch set up, and keeping my tungsten ultra sharp hearkens back to my enjoyment of sharpening a pencil to the point it was sharper than a hypodermic needle!
I’m about to take the plunge on a TIG machine, I started on stick and have a MIG now. I know this is going to be a steep learning curve, but that’s the fun part… isn’t it?
heyyy, whatsup just a quick question before i dive in into more videos seeking answers... will they be there? or the channel purpose is rather to promote classes subs (which makes sense). asking because so far (+1 or 2 more vids watched) only get general infos without solution being explained really (while still thousands of thousands views). thanks
Do you offer a class for tig welding carbon steel
If I am welding no thicker than 1/4 to 5/16 aluminum, how powerful (in amps) a machine do I need?
I think it would take me quite a lot of practice to get proficient enough for aircraft structure welding, and to be assured of 100% safe welds. Can't afford a weld failure which could result in structural failure and possibly a fatal crash.
Is it just the particles in air that contaminate and burn your tungsten
Or the carbons from welding
I’ve done a fair amount of stick welding on tractor s and mig around the shop. Brazing and even jewelry repairs ! I’m fascinated with tig and I have a lot of drag bikes ( mini drag 200-300cc) and I really wanna learn to do stainless tubing for exhaust! Exhaust tuning is where you get some extra horse power and makes some really sick engines , max flo thru big valve head !
does your online program teach tig welding bronze?
Hi. Thanks for your channel. There was one person who commented price to weld. $80 US. I was wandering if you have a formula to calculate the cost of a job. Before your markup to make profit on the job at hand. Stay well and keep teaching. You are good.
Hi dusty is all inverter tig machine weld aluminum?
Hands down best tip is if stick or mig will truly not work hire a tig welder. Also I have a Lincoln tig torch and foot pedal for sale!
So. Did rodger get any better at golf ?
I have a Everlast that is stick TIG and plasma
Can't understand how to walk the cup. Can't do vertical
interesting and your way to teach sounds well thought out. #subscribe // offtopic .. I have started with a regular basic helmet (~70 $), but i never could get it working perfectly .. vision was not that good (E-hand, MIG MAG, TIG). Than I ve decided to spent money for very good optrel (~300 $) ... and that was an incredible upgrade - vision of welding process is perfect and the quality of my welds increased so much. So I agree .. some stuff are fancy but does not help - but others like a very good vision are a game changer. greetings from germany
You are wonderful! I love you! ❤
I tend to agree, a little too much jump-cutting. You can get around some of it by slowing the video down using video speed via the YT gear icon in the upper right of the screen. Getting a bit tired of seeing ads for cartoon torture and snuff video games shoved into the main videos on YT. Gross.
That table!
Hi. When you talking about basic machine, you always show a fancy machine on the screen.
Im a old school machinist. I use Esab DTA 200. ac/dc. That is Basic Tig welder. Could you be comfortable with that old welder? I dont weld so much anymore so i do exercise weldig one hour before i do the work welding. Think that is a good advice to all that dont weld everyday.
Do you teach people to tig weld an if you do were are located
I'm sure you're too busy to answer but I'll try asking and hope I'm wrong.
Will your course start off by suggesting good quality but cheaper equip. you mentioned in this video ?? I mean like Links to products so that I might have everything I'll need to take the class in the 1st place ??
Thanks for your generous consideration,
Sincerely .................
Why do you leave a crater at the end of your welds?
Why do you still ball your tungsten?
People that leave negative comments obviously don’t give credit to people trying to learn, I’ve been welding for over 15 years and if you are the typical nerd dissing him move on and quit being jealous of what he’s doing because it’s obvious you are not
Good morning.I have been welding for years never use pedal,now in my new job taking in a tig I fail cause of the pedal can someone help me please how to use pedal
Your shop looks like the bar at Larry flints hustler bar in new Orleans with that blue backlighting. 🤣🤣🤣
I have taught many and really the basic fundamentals learn how to
Acetylene weld and Tig will come very easy.
Acetylene welding is to Tig welding
Like Stick welding is to Mig welding
Learn the basics Acetylene and Stick welding, and Tig and Mig welding will be easy. Just a suggestion
I think when you’re learning to weld, save your money on the flashy add-ons, and spend that money on more Argon and practice metal.
I was not prepared for how much argon it takes.
10:13 I laughed hard at this point. I am tattoo artist learning to tig weld. I've always used similar comparison when someone asked me how to learn tattoo. "Don't buy expensive machine because it's like getting driving licence and starting with ferrari. You surely are allowed to drive one, but you'll probably crash soon since you can't drive yet. Learn how basic machine works first and then upgrade if you feel like it".
got myself a “1st Welder” 😂 cheapo TINY little stick-welder unit … I’m gonna get good with E6013 before I upgrade to Tungston. 💜👍
🤔 Then I’ll think about paying more than $100 for a good unit. 😅
dusty please aluminum pop can weld i can not do it i need help.
I hate watching TV commercials because they don't "flow".
They don't get 2 seconds without a change of camera angle. Often less that 1/2 second throughput the 30 second commercial.
It's extremely distracting to see so many unnecessary camera movements.
Your content and knowledge is better than anything out there but I like the older videos with one camera and a fluid message like being in a classroom watching and listening. I'm seeing 1/2 to 3 second clips through the entire video. I don't like being negative but I've seen others make similar comments in the past.
Remember to turn on the argon
If assembly of the torch is so important, why did you F-up the hex head with a pair of pliers? Use an open in wrench.
Hummmpf...there's another vid that tells me I can TIG in 20 minutes. I think I'll go with that. ;-)
Actually, I started TIG when I was 70. I could stick weld a bit and frankly I usually pick up most skills quick enough. TIG didn't come easy for me and everything he says is spot on. Patience, practice, and keep watching and listening to the the wisdom learned by others. Well, except perhaps for the 20 minutes thing, probably ain't going to happen.
A TIG torch is just a handheld arc furnace. Any impurities will rise to the surface as slag. No need to waste time/argon for clean welds if you aren't doing sanitary or out-of-position welding.
What's a good way to clean the cups from spalds and stuff?
You can buy a set of ten pack of cups for cheap.
@@toycoma98 I asked how to clean them not how much they cost.
Don't shock yourself. I have a buddy who had the torch arc into his hand and not the plate
Just seeing the thumbnail I thought you were going to tell us not to constantly bend the "flexible" torch heads. I say this because they can and will break. The ones iv seen break and fall apart are corregated copper tubing. Copper work hardens like aluminum does and will crack if you bend it one to many times. Cheaper torches that come with the cheaper welders will break a lot faster.
well, if your temp is correct, you don't need that much filler rod, you shouldn't have to grind back to get a flat surface
On line welding course really. I would recommend taking a class with a professional teacher
Your class is seriously soo much better than Hillary Clintons online class 😂
I've noticed that your closeup welding videos you float the touch rather than walk it, why is that?
Personal opinion: the camera cuts are super annoying, rather you have the still front facing camera for the whole time instead of a weird, looks like you're talking to someone else angle. Saves on set up and editing too.
Are there differences of the helmets for different types of welding?
Hi Ron, if you're planing to weld TIG with a auto darkening helmet, you'll need to make sure it's TIG compatible. Some helmets don't have the sensibility to darken with TIG. Cheers.
Some darken to a fixed shade, may be too dark for tig. Need an adjustable one.
here in australia ? i found i had to buy another helmet my ,mig helmet didnt go light enough to do tig ? mig is higher amps so darker the shade , were tig is lighter shade ?
To easy to understand as he is not out to sell you equipment and glam. Just education and steps for success.
