Hi Tom .... just a little rhyme to remember ... "if there is slag, then drag". Push the MIG torch into the weld puddle ... drag the electrode away from weld puddle when stick welding.
Thanks for the tip! Yes I have heard that before, but thanks for the reminder 👍
Very professional quality video Tom, nice work!
Thanks Ken and thank you for your advice getting it set up and going!
Thanks Tom 👍 - really nice footage - a joy to watch
Thank you Claus!
I own this welder, and I really love it. Some of the "Cheaper" ones are junk. I had one. But this welder welds like the Miller I used professionally.
Good to hear! It’s a great machine!! If anything I find it too powerful for thin metals lol
Nice video Tom and the shout out for the 3 wise men was cool. 🙂👍
Thanks John :) they’be been very kind 👍
Those welds look really good my man!
Thanks! Much appreciated :)
So far, I have had good luck with the Vevor products I have. Not the best by a long way, but good enough. I have read that if you want to return something, there will be issues. As for flux core vs shielding gas...Flux core works better if wind is a factor.
Thanks for sharing :) I can only speak for their mini metal lathe as that was the only other product I have tried. They seem to offer really good value products to the home owner when compared to shops or Amazon which offer the same product but at a much higher price.
Great video. Don't have one yet. Thinking hard about it though.
Glad you enjoyed the video! :) edited to add, if you have any questions about this one just reach out mate. I have used it a fair bit more since this video!
Great job Tom. Always remember you push mig and pull a stick welder. 👍
Spot on mate :) thanks for the reminder. I had read that a few times. Good advise!
As an expert welder, one who have never touched or even seen a welder in close proximity but the RUclips pro welders videos, I say, there are a lot of sputter (the small beads) and the important part is to hold it steady, keep the same pace and ... ok, I see myself out. Jokes aside, cool video, thank you!
Haha Glad you enjoyed the video 😂👍
Flux core is very bad for spatter and is difficult to keep from getting on your material, the spatter spray might make it easier to remove the spatter after welding. Using a hardened scraper can help with removal, if you have access to someone who works in a sawmill maybe they can get you old chipper blades, these make good slag scrappers. If someday you can afford to get shielding gas, you will be much happier.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Ray! Much appreciated mate :)
Thanks, great video. What was the blue light coming off your ground clamp.
Hmm it must have been a reflection :)
That looks quite impressive with all the adjustments available and the different types of welds you can do. I have a small CIG gasless mig and it's amazing how thin the metal can be that you can weld. I ran out of the wire that came with it and got some of the Boss brand from Bunnies and I don't think it is working as well, so I just got a roll of the CIG stuff today to see if it works better. Does that one use shielding gas too as I thought you showed a connection for it? A very handy addition will be a self darkening shield down the track.
It seems to be a good unit for a homeowner wanting to do projects around the workshop for sure! Let me know how you go with cig wire, I’ll need some new stuff soon.
What size wire are you using that allows you to weld so thin?
Thanks for sharing!
@@VintageEngineRepairs I was using 0.8mm wire and the metal was only about 1mm thick. Mind you I was only repairing cracks, not continuous welding.
Looks darn good for your first time. Buy a mask that has a larger screen and auto darkening, make things so much easier. We bought a stick welder from Aldi or Lidl, less than £60. It actually does a decent job
Thanks Al :) that’s good advise!! Glad the Aldi welder worked well for what it was!
Hi I would like to know why they show a different welder on the Canadian site
I’m not certain, best to check with Vevor. Likely to do with our 240v vs your 110?
@@VintageEngineRepairs ok thanks but there a but .I wanted to purchase a welder based on your review but know it's inaccurate due to the lesser quality welder we get sent to .I guess we will all be getting untouch with Vevor
Yes best to double check with vevor if you’re unsure :)
I've always wanted to learn but its 220 volt right ? Don't want to convert too expensive .
Na the one you’ll buy in the USA comes with an adapter plug :)
una pregunta maestro tengo una motosierra Qusvarna 440 que llenó el tanque de combustible en piesa a fallar asé ésto BU BU y cuando está medio tanque funciona bien que revisaré simedigeras porfavor gracias saludos desdé México

A question, teacher, I have a Qusvarna 440 chainsaw that filled the fuel tank in half, it was about to fail, so this is BU BU and when it is half a tank it works fine, I will check it if you please, thank you, greetings from Mexico
