I like how you mentioned all welders that's awesome!!! Because that's what's about we all share the same passion and everyone of us are working together keeping America running strong weather your a Miller guy Lincoln we all are doing what we love thanks for the videos I enjoy them. I bought the pro 300 but I use mine to weld and repair scrapyard machinery, I love the machine I would recommend it to anyone that wants a Miller but can't fork out the extra for a pipe pro.
Thanks Jake for the explanation and short review. I'm pretty sure that the more you use it the better it's going to get. Have a great rest of the weekend buddy!
I'm really looking forward to more info on this bed. I've watched and rewatched the build videos id love to see more.
Jacob, the end of this video matters right now. Great work Bro, keep it up. I am a cop who is just now exploring new trades in life. I appreciate all of the work and what you have put out here on youtube. Keep it going! Especially now in 2021.
Hello Jacob just saw your video.I've been using a Big blue 300 pro for a week and I really like it.It has the 6010 and 7018 soft and crisp arc which is nice anf you Can make your weld stack how you want or make it look rather its a very smooth running machine.I've been a pipe welder for 26 years and I am a hard core lincoln guy but I have to admit these new Millers have come around.Its really coming down to the color preference LOL! .What ive been told is that Lincoln customer service sucks compared to Miller.NOTHING will ever replace an old Lincoln pipeliner , The looks,how they sound and that arc! in my opinion. The ac power of the Miller's are incredible.I like your rig most important your humility.I love both.Use tje miller for a while and then get yourself a New lincoln MP 300 haha.God bless Augie Avila
Awesome video Schofield! Good lookin machine. When I started that's why I bought a Vantage 300. People made fun of me for it and said it was a waste of time compared to sticking with a SA200 but now it seems the trend is changing. Always loved being able to run whatever I want.
Nice - look forward to hearing more about the remote.
Thats a really good machine just keep working with it and you will figure out the ins and outs of that machine and it will surprise you how it does. So are you ready for me to paint that awesome rig will make it look bad ass let me know when be safe brother and keep on welding and thank you guys for sharing your adventures with us sure means alot
I love my 💙. Yes your right the SA200 is an amazing machine as well.....the blue just has that's power output you need
A true pipeliner review !
I currently have the same machine Mitsubishi engine, wireless remote also ( not to much of a fan either but am working with it) , I’ve run heavy big bore to ..... .375 small bore. Runs very good. Yes, consistent...... that comes from all the internal electronics in the machine. Very smooth little different that a Lincoln..... 200 or a newer 300. The generator power alone is worth it’s weight in gold. I have Tig welded straight off the machine doing lube oil lines on a compressor station..... al I can say is awesome !!! Lights smooth pulls out smooth. So far I’m happy......2200 hours I had to replace brushes ( not happy about that) when speaking to Miller about that they said depending on the usage of that machine they have seen those brushes go anywhere from 1800 hrs to 3000 hrs. The gentleman I bought my machine from did a lot of heavy wall pipeline welding he retired and I bought it from him second day I owned it I was replacing brushes it’s just one little things tit for tat when you get into these machines. I’ve owned a Lincoln but I have favored Miller Far more. I still own my original machine I started with which is a Miller 350d trail blazer model..... with a Kabota engine. Little higher revving RPM machine but I love that machine this one here kind a like you still try to figure out that arc control. But like anything the more you use them the more you figure them out the more comfortable you will be with your gear.
thanks for the review they are good machines. my buddy has the same machine. he likes it more then the lincolns. they will even come on site and do repairs if your machine breaks down.
That came out nice. Great Work
ive welded with those pipe pro 350s a lot and they are a real nice machine , the one thing ur Lincoln will do better is freeze metal , u wont ever really notice until ur on like say 24" 500 wall and capping without stringers they are just very watery and I find don't hold metal back like the lincolns, good videos!
Lincoln's freeze the weld puddle better than Miller's.."" is that really your statement and are you sticking to that""".."" so in your mind"" it's the welding machine that is responsible for how fast the weld puddle cools??? WOW!!!
You may try a actual wired remote with it one day. I don’t have a lot of experience with them but I have noticed it calms the machines down a lot. Made a big difference from liking the machine to loving it to me
my dad has 2 pipe pro 304's and they are just awesome. him and I mostly do shop work for the most part but when we do go out on site they're fantastic. although when they ramp up they do get quite loud and is sometimes a bit much when you're working right next to it
I absolutely love my Millers. I have had a couple Lincolns in the past. However, I prefer the Miller welders
I just picked up a Pro 300 with remote. So far it's been good to me.
Pro 300’s were designed strictly as a generator .... they don’t have some of the features the pipe pro’s have..... but they are a good weldin machine
Sounds great.
Great job
I've always been a lincoln man myself, love my SA-200, SAE-300 MP, and Cross Country 300 but I also love my Miller Big Blue 400 PipePro. The first time I used a Miller was a job and my SAE-300 MP broke down and the shop I took it to only had a Miller Big Blue 350 PipePro to use while they fixed my welder. It took me awhile practicing on scrape metal to get used to the miller but when I figured it out, it blew my expectations aways.
man I know exactly what your saying. the learning curve is a tough thing but once you figure out how to use them it is an amzing machine.
@@JacobSchofield I get laughed and poked at when I show up on a jobsite with a miller but after I strike that arc they all go quite. I'm just glad I wasn't too stubborn to not take a miller then had enough patience to read the manual and practice with it. I know my great grandfather and grandfather are rolling in their graves at the fact I'm using a miller.
Are you liking how the root is going in? Have you had to change anything like gap or land to adjust to how the machine runs?
I am currently refurbishing a late 70's SA200 F163.
I usually bead with mine on 0 to 2 stiff depending on gap. If I try to go above that I can’t get a good keyhole and the rods will toenail to one side
That shark hide would look good on that bed
Would like to see how that pipepro performs on 3&4 inch .125 wall
Did I miss the video of the bed build where you installed lights etc?
What type of wireless remote did you say you wanted to try out?
Jacob There is sweet tea adds before your video. How fitting for ya
with them wireless remotes u probably no but if u hold the power button until the blue light comes on they will stay on until machine is turned off then theres not hestation at all
You mention you don't like the blue on the doors, they do make the new Pipe Pros with optional stainless doors, you should see if they are interchangeable
I have a 400 pipe pro stainless and I love it.
Irwin thats a freaking nice nice machine for sure.
Jacob I’m trying to find info on the tig ninja do you have there contact info?
Nice.
Hey how did you do those fenders or where did you get them
I wish the structural paid what pipe paid. I've always enjoyed the sheet metal fabrication, although I can do both well.
Do we have to swap leads to run Tig on the 400?
Where can I find the tig ninja remote?
Whats the dig between the pipe pro 300 and the miller pro 300 for welding pipe
I call you the humble welder. I like to be across the pipe with hands like your self
Lincoln sa 200
How good are the Miller 225 for like little project and stuff ?
Thanks but I prefer my SAE 300 MP on the 42" stuff and for everything. Small stuff, I remeber those days.
Shouldnt matter what welder you have a good welder knows how to set a machine.
every machine is different and if you can tell the difference then you are not a welder
Dale yeah ol son
What happen to the Lincoln 300 you had
How much did it cost to build the bed? Material cost
Yeah
I'm thinking about buying one but it's not the pipe pro just the 400 pro..is it pretty much the same?
How much was the miller 350 new?
Woohoo!
I work in the oil patch myself but can someone tell me why people talk about Hobart welders although it's not the welding machine that determines the quality of the weld but it's the person welding..and yes I have a Hobart welder and it gets the job done just as good as a Miller or Lincoln
Hey Jacob i hear you talking about the remote well im from west texas and we have a guy out here that designed a remote for any machine it has all the all the functions the regular control has but he also made a remote that clips onto your stinger and you can control the temperature as you go so just wanted to let you know
Ate you going to paint your bed? I like the rust look. Some mineral oil On it and it will give it some pop. Cool channel. Keep it up.
Probably not. Ill probably just bed line it and call it a day.
linex bed?
Hey Jacob why do the Millers pipepro smoke at startup? Can you prevent that?
Just depends on how long you hold that glow switch and the outside temp. I was in 7 degree weather last year and cycled the glows a couple times a it barely let out a little puff of smoke, now I'm back in texas and it's hot outside, no smoke on start up now
Hey jake what happend to this truck do you still have it?
JUST CUROUS FIRST OFF THE BED LOOKS GOOD , IF YOU HAD ONE WOULD YOU PUT ON A SMALL ELECTRIC CRANE OR WOULD IT GET IN THE WAY
crosscountry vs pipepro ?
can you tune the arc the same as your SA-200?
I’m it’s been tough to get that part figured out. I just messed with it tell I felt comfortable. I think 90% of it is the Operater
How do you get started in pipe line welding.
1st LEARN TO WELD PIPE! Find a school and BEHAVE YOURSELF while in school. There are ALOT of ways to get help for school also.
If u want to go. FIND A WAY!
I use to live in fort collins.
Hi Jacob, cool video. I wanted to ask u a question, I'm starting to build my welding rig and I can't decide between a ranger 250gxt or a sa-200 black face. Which one do you recommend?
Jorge Barrios get a sa-200
Sa would do alot better on bigger pipe...ranger will limit you more
I really like your videos. I was born and raised in Colorado, still live here and have been in the oil patch for 20 years. If you will send me your mailing address, I would like to send you some Oilfield stickers from my well service and welding company.
Thanks
Derek
Used them in the past, didn't really like it. Heat was off from the Lincoln but each are to there own
Can u brother in law a diesel machine with a gas machine on the same pipe or would it mess up the gas machine, I feel like it cant,but my machine doesn't hold it amperage after I did that.
John c ive helped these 2 welders one had a classic 300d and the other had a blackface and they ran them all day long and no problem at all they never complained you should be fine
Valentin Briagas Jr. Yeah that's what I thought, so I'm thinking it was my luck that day it decided to mess up , so now I'm trying to see weather to buy the 3k part or wait till I find another cheap sa200 to replace the main armature
John c shit i say buy another machine it ain’t bad to have a back up
Valentin Briagas Jr. Yeah that's what I'm using right now , I just found it odd that my machine messed up doing that, cause the main armature still looks brand new idk, it happens I guess
jake the welder on your truck, will it do rmd welding Jim
I’m not sure what RMD is?
Nope a sa 200 red face 1960 but u might b right about the starter
Ronald Parady u can use a starter for a 350 Chevy just change the nose
Hey buddy do you no any welders looking for helpers? I grew up working on cars and went into construction running equipment etc. I can run a grinder and I'm willing to learn anything someone is willing to teach me. I'm out of Florida but willing to travel for the right money
Now that you're learning 3D design you should try to design your next bed in CAD.
That’s what I’m trying to do. I think it would be pretty helpfule
@@JacobSchofield Fell free to ask me any questions. I spent some time learning CAD and a few good 3D design programs. Be well.
I actually just saw one on Craigslist for a 1000 and needed a starter
Ronald Parady lol this is a new machine only 1k?
Your probably thinking of just a normal bobcat. Usually if it doesn't have a starter its usually seized up. They take it off so you cant start it and you leave with a busted machine
Can I run a Ln-25 on the pipe pro?
I believe you can. Should hook up just like the extreme 12vs
Jake is this pipe pro pure dc voltage please
Great question my plugs are Ac but the stinger is DC
Is that what your asking?
Idk all the welder sizes at my welding classes so I’m not going to try to sound like I know what am I talking about. Here’s what I like tho lol older welders I love. The 10 years newer welders I hate! To get the arc going compared to the old is so much more differ.
I see your from Bingham county. I'm Owyhee. Next time you come through US 95 PM me, I'll buy you a cup of coffee and we can swap some lies.
Man Robert that be Great. Never been over that way. Would be happy to shake your hand and talk for awhile
0.47 that’s what she said
My sa 200 fell off my trailer,I feel like shit
Really like your vids. Really sorry that you would buy that yeti cooler . You did a pretty good job hiding it. Just really disappointed.
Kenny Compton ok I’m sorry mom. Number one I bought before everything went down and it’s a good cooler. Damn thing cost 300.00 and if you want to sell yours I got 100.00 in pocket. Be blessed
All you have to do is put a NRA sticker over Yeti lol
Nope I dont have one and with your reply I can watch someone else videos. Oh I am not your mom either.As you would say be BLESSED. Just dont believe you mean it.
Kenny Compton Having a bad day there Kenny? It’s a cooler.
Whatever you think is best man. Have a great night.
This must be a younger generation thing about not painting your bed. ??? Rust is a cancer fellas
Why does this dude seem drunk and slurring his words in every video
david crumrine why do you seem like such a fuck head in every comment?
But keep going through the videos don’t give up. Every comment and every view makes me money!! Thanks for the support.
@@JacobSchofield lol just speaking the truth. You seem drunk in every video I seen. If that makes me a fuck head , guess I am a fuck head. Just like if you have to be drunk and slurring your words in every video, guess that makes you an alcoholic. Wouldn't be much of a surprise, the younger generation needs to stop running the welding profession in the ground being drunks and having that cocky attitude which is a combination of all they want to do is fight. The welding profession USE to be a well respected career, all the younger generation is doing is making people think we are just stupid drunks who want to do nothing but drunk and brawl.
@@JacobSchofield cause RUclips is the only way you can really make money.
Hahahahaha you think so??
Get to the point man.
