Whether your son stays in the trade or not, having the skills will always keep food on the table. He's lucky to have you for a teacher, too.
This is a great way to look at it. I learned lots of blue collar skills from my father, but I went to college and now have a desk job. However, if my car breaks down or my house needs repaired I do it myself. From replacing transmissions and water heaters to building decks I can do it and do it right. I help my family and my neighbors when they are in need. I know if I lost my job tomorrow and couldn't find work in my field I could always find work building or repairing something. If the world goes to shit and the global economy collapses for good, I would still have in-demand skills.
Never underestimate the power of being able to work with your hands. It's great to see a dad working with his son. Happy fathers day!
Honestly, it's the best way to learn. Learn more in the field than in a class room. Can't teach all conditions like what you're bound to run into in the field. In fact there are many that actually learn better by doing than by watching or reading about it. Cheers :)
@@Ham68229 OJT or On the Job Training is the best way to learn.
There are book smarts and street smarts as the saying goes.
yes as one of the best freehand torch cutters and users they say on youtube, which is a large space of community, I did not start to really learn metal work till about 2014 trying to take in what I could when we got a welder finally, but woodwork and crafts I have been watching since the age of 6 wish would have started earlier never got the opportunity in high school, I mean we had classes and wanted to learn a bit about welding and theory but wanted back then to work in the business field and that is what I have my degree in. but woodworking is not as needed as once was as stuff is made more of composites and metal in the industrial world, and though learning trades and industrial jobs has started to come back in the high schools, and we had them still in house when I was there 21 years ago there was a real push away from metal and woodwork, and more a focus on math and computers, and then those information jobs of coding and tech support were outsourced overseas.
I did not really start to take woodworking start to finish on my own till about age 27 though I had sanded and jacked around on the scroll saw at age 11 making wooden toy weapons a few times, and watched mechanic stuff on cars, and growing up around here cars and trains are in your blood, though the railroad is less then what it once was though we have a sub division office here, set off yard, and railcar repair in place track still as well as a mantainace of way but its not the hey day it was even in the 1980s and few here actually work for csx let alone the thousands that worked in the machine shops and roundhouse 100 years ago before those were closed in 1926 and the roundhouse went out of use in 1958 as the last steamer on the b and O made its last run, we still have excursion engines where skills like Isac and his son here are in great need that run steam or early diesels but they are not mainline power and the skills and knowledge of the idiosyncrasies of that kind of motive power is not well known so it must be passed on on the job as one volunteers or travels around to differant shops to learn or work on traveling to differant shops or historical societies that run them.
Awesome
This is what a man does. He SHOWS his son how to be a man, instead of TELLING him. You sir have my respect.
I love seeing you working alongside your son. A father is his son’s foundation for manhood.
Truth
My dad built two houses, fixed the cars anything he could do he did and without forcing me to learn I got it trough watching and him explaining so now I know a little bit of many things basically a joat.
Hell yes, 43 year old millwright/machinist. The old man is a life long OTR trucker and he still amazes me with his old school know how and ingenuity. Sometimes keeping the ears open and mouth shut is the best.
You ain't kidding, I'd cut my right hand off to see my father again if only for a minute.
Great video right before Father’s Day
One lucky yungun! Learn all you can bud
Hopefully he'll understand that his Dad doing miracle (art) w/ metal 😎
Thing is, I'm the mechanic and the welder for my company. But as much work as I do everyday, I still learn a lot from you!! Great content as always 👏!!
Thanks 👍
That kid better pay attention cus he sure has a dam good instructor 👍👌🏻
He should enroll in a local trade school and absorb everything then go out in the field and start learning repair and fabrication.
Being in the field will teach you what a trade school will not.
@@bombardier3qtrlbpsi exactly. Trade schools will teach you how things should be done, in optimal conditions with all the equipment that it would be nice to have, but on the job experience teaches you how to get away with using rudimentary tools and equipment complete a job when it seems that sometimes everything goes a fighting you In every way. Then when you are in a job and you have the tools you should have, and the nice material that you should have, and all that, things go smooth because you got to learn how to work with thing regardless of all that.
This his son. He’ll be fine
I was thinking wow the knowledge he can build on..
I lost my dad to a car accident before I was born. Really warms my heart to see this type of father/son interaction. As a fellow central Texan and welder, great job on life, and trade.
I wish I could still spend time with my father. Cherish every moment, they don't last forever. God Bless you and your family. Very special seeing you so patient and taking time with your son
Interesting stuff young man. And great to see a Master passing on his skills to his son who will hopefully one day be at least as good and then take the I C WELD brand into the future.
Top regards and respect to both of you guys!
Nothing better then working with your boy! Love seeing you both working together. He will remember working with you long after you and I are gone… nice job. Start em young
Handing done actual problem solving skills in real life situations is a lost art. Its great to see someone doing it. That young man is 1 step ahead already.
A father will be one of the best teachers you could ever have. Listen and learn but most of all enjoy as much as you can these moments with your pops. Happy Father's day! How appropriate for this weekend. Hopefully that's your son lol
Yes it is my son, and thanks man!
I know this is late but had to comment. Amen to learning from your dad. Lost mine 2 years ago and still find myself reaching for the phone to run something by him, and he's not there. Nothing on earth I miss more than my dad. Enjoy every second together.
@@giggiddy Ditto on your comment!! My Dad passed on at the age of 53, I was 17 at the time, now I'm 66, I STILL miss him, brings tears to my eyes thinking how much more I could have learned in the short time I knew him. Just watching him fix, build, and be the man he was, although not perfect, I learned how to be a man!
Also late seeing this ☺Thank you Isaac, for all that you share. @D Smith and @John Smith, ditto sum ditto - My dad passed nigh on 14 years back, and I still miss him everyday. And chat to him, in my head, everyday. I hear his amonishments still, and the rare praise, with every job I do. Turned 65 today, and still wish he could see what I do with what he taught and left me. - Robert
I learn more every time I watch you. I get my welding supplies from Nelson Debassgie at Richie supply on Manitoulin Island. MChigeeng.. I really like the gouger work. A gouger is on my wish list. Thanks man.
My son was almost always right there learning and helping and occasionally hearing a swear word or two, looks like yours is doing the same👍🇺🇸
Sewar words sticks it to his mind 😂
Ain't nothing wrong with knowing the swear words, as long as you also know when and where to use them...🙂
As a father or parent, we can only offer the knowledge we have to our children. They have an amazing ability to pick up the good (and the not so good) and do what they will with it. I am proud and impressed with what my son and daughter picked up and made their own from people around them. Just as my Mom and Dad praised me for what I accomplished. I am proud of my kids and their accomplishments in their work and everyday lives. Good job Dad.
I used to think I worked slow on repair jobs, but watching Isaac I've learned it just takes time to do good work and don't get in a hurry.
Nice to see you teaching your son the tricks of welding firsthand, good job. Love the music keep the videos coming. It is a joy to watch you work and lay down welds . i work at it , but yours are so precipice nice work.
Your son looks like he is interested in what you've got to teach. Good show. Great video, thumbs up.
I was glad to see you got the torch in his hands. You have to trust them to learn and understand that they make mistakes. That's what makes you such a good teacher
Your videos are always entertaining, informative and instructive. I was very interested in learning how you were going to bring those yoke ears back into shape. Excellent job. Thanks very much for sharing.
Mighty fine apprentice you have there, thank the good Lord for Dads like you! You guys really made my day!
Father and son working side by side, a wonderful opportunity to "inculcate these words". Love to you and your family Isaac
Yup De 6:7 hehe.
Your stuff is the best! Please give those of us who weld your particulars ie rod type…size…amperage used…we can learn a lot from particulars. Thanks for all you do! Steve
Great suggestion!
A gift of a parent passing down the skill and knowledge great video thank you
Good to see the young bloke out there picking up the skills!
Your son is extremely blessed to have such a talented teacher to carry on the legacy.
Like so many here have said, that's its' great for young son to be working along side his dad. If only the young folks these days could work with their fathers like that to see how hard they often have to work to put bread on the table.
Helpers like that are what life's about. Thanks for sharing!
Indeed a lucky young man to be able to learn from such a great teacher.
Looks great Isaac
Nice to see you showing the young gun the ropes
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! I know so many kids with talented fathers,but they have zero of there father's skills,I believe most these days spend so much time trying to make a living, that they don't take time to make a life! And the kids get further separated from the nucleus of the family bond,so to you Sir,great job.And so nice to see your son involved!
I'm 41 now and for the past ten years I've been obsessed with how things work, and how to fix them. I try to get my son interested in the same things, but now he's reached his late teens, he's sadly just not got that same passion. In my late teens I also didn't know what I wanted to be, so I'm hoping he comes full circle like I did. I love seeing fathers working with sons or the older generation teaching the young. The best experience you'll ever get, is from those who are older and have encountered the problem before. I wish you and your son a fruitful, happy and healthy life of fixing things!
Thanks man. and dont give up. theyre always watching. ;)
Love seeing your son with you. We have 3 and the youngest worked with me. He is a 26 year old Marine now and I miss his company especially when I am working. The music you use always soothes me while watching. Thank you. Excellent work as always
That boy is learning from the best . Best wishes for a great future.
Is awesome awesome video Is love seeing you work side-by-side with your son teaching him all the tricks of the trade Great video as always and always God-bless
Hope that young man appreciates the skills he is being shown. Even if he doesn’t stay in this field it is a problem solving methodology that will help in so many facets of life. Good deal. Never stop learning
Issac, I throughly enjoy watching your videos , I always learn so much from them . You are definitely a master of the trade without question. Good to see your son was there helping and learning from you as well. You just gave that CAT back one of its 9 lives lol , anyway Thank You for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.
Great seeing your son working with you. I'm still waiting on the shop truck walk around video.
Fantastic video your son will thank you in years to come great team work
Something a little different and some good information, thank you for the video. The young man is very lucky to be learning from a very good teacher.
When my Pop was welding in the 70’s got to spend a lot of time swamping for him cutting drilling rigs off location. Would no trade a second of that time for no amount of money.
Another awesome job my friend.... Just love to see people doing what they love and have a passion for .Please more videos (Alan & Chi)
Great video Isaac! Awesome to have your son with you at work, happy Father’s Day 💯👍🏽
You're a master of your craft, Isaac! Lovely to see you working alongside, and guiding, your son.
Your son's a chip off the old block, Couldn't never better teacher...👌
Good afternoon my friend, I wish you more success
If your son, continues to work with you, he can look forward to a solid future. The world always needs trades people.
I really enjoy watching your stuff...this is one of the best...GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL YOURS BEYOND MEASURE
Terrific video gift to all of us Dads on Father's day. Thanks!
Always a pleasure to watch someone that makes things look easy, it comes from experience.
The steel Doctor at work.
Thank you for sharing your skills with us, Very enjoyable to watch.
thats pretty cool I just realised you can actually see the metal moving on the speeded up footage
Great video quality , music and awesome content . Thanks for sharing
Always great watching you work, getting the boy involved is a great way to show him the value of work. I dig it.
AHh, guess I went to bed too early and you slipped one more excellent video in-
And, you have a little helper? Good. Insist he follow all safety procedures, no exceptions. Safety is the most important thing one can teach a young person. Like don’t get under that blade, it will fall on you!Excellent video, keep them coming-
I hope your son understands how lucky he is to be learning such a valued trade from such an expert! Seriously, I’m very jealous.
Ask him to pay attention to how you set your whole body up to get a stable welding platform. Always tell him what you like about his last weld: there is always something that people get right. Do it in a casual,
non-phoney way. Nothing sinks in faster than support. Gradually the errors will fade away. My Dad did it for me. I never had to whine!
I really enjoy watching your videos, and your so humble... Can't wait for the next one
Great to see you taking your son along with you, memories he will always have
Working with a sharp dressed man this time. Another great job! :D
I helped fix the undercarriage of a CAT 953 highlift in my younger years. This is bringing back some fond memories 👌🏻
Love your videos. You’re extremely skilled in what you do.
I'm delighted to see you teaching (your son?) Your trade. Next to being good at what you do, there's nothing better. Much respect!
Yes, thank you
I love watching a master at work!!
Love watching your videos good work, awesome to see your son working with you nice.
Great video best thing is your relationship with your son
You're a good patient man. Another awesome video.
Love your music! Thanks for the video! Always a class act!
Safety Tip: Crib blocks to help support the dozer blade in case of hydraulic failure.
Yeah, I appreciate the reminder. I asked the rancher if it bled down, but you never know. Thanks bud.
That blade “Will” ! Fall! Block it or don’t get under it. Something!
Yep Saw That First Thing ? Want To Check out... Work Safe That IT
@@ICWeld Issac, you know as well as we do that a rancher’s knowledge about machinery is nothing compared to the attraction of heavy metal and gravity.
Yes, first thing I noticed. Hydraulic lines can and will fail.
Great vid IC. Nice to see your son learning the trade!!😎
Awesome job like everybody else glad to see your son working with you he’s learning a lot
Your field truck is awesome brother just have to say that
Love this channel! Thanks for sharing all that skill.
great to see father and son working together, congratulations
This was a great video .....I enjoyed every second of it . These are the moments that you won't forget all your life . To your son learn a much as you can from your father when you get older you will be glad you had this time with him . To you sir you are a true father and teacher give him all the knowledge you can you are a true craftsmen .....those who work with there hands have skills that we need more than ever. Happy Father's Day !!
Great to see you and your son working together. I always taught my children how to work when there young, then they will take it into adulthood.
Keep up the good work... young fella has got alot to learn yet❤️
It’s great to see you teaching this young lad your trade , hopefully he likes it and see the value in it
Master-Class-Tutorial for a successful career; Lucky young man ! Great work !
(Quick, effiient intro) "... enough talk, let's get to work!"
Man we “ the viewers” need a rig run down and a truck tour to see how a pro set’s up his rig. Always good stuff
Come on Dad let junior drive😜 killer work as always 💪
Great job. Passing on your experience to your son.👍
I had a similar problem a while back. I used my 36 ton Enerpac hollow ram with some 1.25 in. allthread and little bit of heat to close the gap. Material wasn't as thick, but I'm sure it would have worked just fine on that dozer. Good to see your son working with you and showing an interest in learning a new skills. The time you spend with him providing guidance will pay off handsomely for both of you. As always, great content. Keep 'em coming!
I had a D5G also and had the same exact problem After getting it straightened out I welded 1" x 2" x 4' Straps of T1 to it to help support it in the future. Man speaking from experience you my friend have made it look easy! keep the great videos coming!
Nice easy job in the sunshine....... too lovely
We dig it, we like your calmness. :)
Nice work mate, another great repair.
Thanks for the video ic 👍👍 your doing a great job with your videos keep them coming 👍👍
Good to see you again bud. Great videos all the time.
Nice to see the younger generation getting involved that's what will keep IC Weld going strong.!!!!
Great job and content as always Isaac. Also, kudos to your son for being interested in the trade
Respectfully speaking to the young man working with his father, Son you will have all the opportunities in life that can come your way by one means or another, some opportunities you will make, others will just be what they are, opportunities, however the opportunity to work with and learn with your father comes from one place and only the one time, I don't care whether its 1921 or 2021, whether your American, Australian or Japanese some things never change and are the same the world over, I never met a man who didn't count among his greatest possessions the things his father taught him, most of us don't realise it until later in life, some times too late, but that's a whole other lesson in life, your Father works in a trade that can be hard hot and heavy and more all at the same time, but when a man like him makes it look as easy as he does anyone who has some experience in his trade will recognize his skills, if that's the trade your heading for then you're one of the fortunate few who has a father and Master Tradesman all rolled in to one, and dad I am sure you already feel the joy of teaching your own son something else to carry him through life, love/hate your work, best wishes to you both.
Well said.
Thanks for writing exactly what I was thinking. Take care. Dan
Thank you for making good content! I enjoy your clips
Great video and I see that you are taking the time to teach
Nice work boys - I like your style Isaac
you do have the best time-lapse (fast forward) music
I agree the kid has a great instructor with valuable knowledge
As my boss would say.. "this kid is going to achieve great things in his future"
I truly believe the same goes to your son
More great content interesting project always a thumbs up from me👍👍👍
GOOD DAD My Son Same I Work With Him Too But Now He's MD Dr. They Go Places If YOU WORK & SHOW THEM Thank You Sir Oh He Still Welds & Fab Car GearHead & E Tech.
Great work Isaac!
