AWS founded in 1919. Thank you for these videos man I am currently taking a welder qualification class and these videos act as extra demos. Really helps.
Dude you are the reason why I passed my welding certs , I learned so much from your videos and utilized on my practices and I got a great improvement on my welds, thank you for your work.
I personally don’t like a gap that big but that’s my preference, and like you I always hang that lead around my shoulders or something too keep weight off my arm because welding for 8-12 hrs a day overhead it does make a difference
I took a test one time in a vessel shop that was 1/2" double bevel 10" plate butted together welded with 7018 3g using 3/32 rodes. Then back gouge and filled x-ray bend test. One of the hardest failure s lol
Patrick Cassidy congratulations Patrick, you won the giveaway for the Caiman 1540 gloves. Please send us a message with your name and address and we’ll get these sent out to you. Thanks for watching weld.com
Good point on tool marks additionally letting the slag cool helps it break out of the nooks and cranies instead of shattering and having to pick it out
So on your second fill pass right before your cap you said 5-10 degree drag angle and you finished that weld pushing the rod 5-10 degrees in the wrong direction... great job!
AWS was founded 1919. Great Video as usual Jason. Thanks man. Do you think you can do a video on Dual Shield using a slightly under-powered machine like maybe the ESAB Rebel 215? I just thought since perhaps there aren't many hobbyists around with high end welding machines in their garage like myself would like to know about making the best out of what they've got.
Precivilization honestly, when I weld at the house I don’t even run the Gas shielded flux cored wires. Just regular flux cored, solid wire, stick and tig. Has shielded flux core is more or less for heavy fabrication for shipbuilding and structural components. The added cost of the wire and gas wouldn’t justify it for home use.
The American welding society was founded in 1919. It was a non-profit organization with the mission to advance the science, technology, and application of welding. The AWS allied the joining and cutting processes, including brazing, soldering, and thermal spraying.
Juan Gatticchi not really, I find that I use them for because they’re there. I never used them prior to getting into teaching. Most of the machines I used prior didn’t have these functions. You just have to develop a good technique for starting and maintain a good arc gap and you’ll be fine. The arc gap should be no bigger than the diameter of your electrode.
No. You basically just adjust arc length. Especially in overhead, strike an arc, long arc for just a second to let your rod heat up then dip in; if you stick go up maybe a couple of amps nothing excessive. I know guys who weld overhead hotter than flat because it’s not as easy to blow through overhead as people think.
Restarts... Why not start the second rod on the other end run off plate and weld back to where the first weld stopped ? I was told that it's easier to blend the two welds together doing it that way. It makes sense to me, but no one seems to do it. Why not ? Is there a problem doing it this way ?
gord johnson you could, I just prefer to do the tie in. It would only work in positions other than vertical though unless a downhill progression is allowed.
Another great one. I'm enjoying the SMAW videos Jason. Makes me want to hit the shed and just burn some rods. Interesting seeing you with the electrode in the end of the singer. I find myself using that position welding vertical as well as overhead. Helps save the gloves and I like the control and feel. If you don't mind me asking, how did the 210 STL you used in the last video run compared to ESAB? I'm wanting a portable welder with hot start and mainly Arc force control. Thanks again Jason!
alvin legson maintain 3 or more points of contact. 2 feet on the floor, put a hip against the material, brace an elbow anything you can do to stabilize yourself.
Richard Solomon thanks for the support. I’m sure we’ll end up using some strong backs at some point. Just wasn’t necessary because of the fixture for this stand.
I always throw the stinger cord over my shoulder for the same reason you said just to keep the weight off the stinger and my hand that cord can mess you up
Very common in structural. He’s said before he was an ironworker or at least welding for the steel erectors; generally 1/8 7018 is the bread and butter of steel erection. I’ve had foreman’s that’d laugh you off the job if you ask for 3/32 or even 6010 or 6011(unless it’s open root)
How the hell can you do that one handed 😂 that’s what I struggle with I just don’t have the steadiness to do that and be comfy doing it, if I can lean on something I can make it work
That’s funny because I’m opposite I only weld one handed , I use my other for leverage, I feel personally I get way more stick control, but that’s why I love welding evryone dose it different, and has thier own style to me I’m thinking how he pulls it towards him I hate welding overhead like that I come from the side or get right in thier pulling towards me I can do it but it’s not my first choice 😂
I’ve been putting the stinger cord around my shoulder it takes weight off of everything so I can support my electrode hand with the other so I’m more steady so better beads haha. Is that allowed at an actual job site?

Hi I'm from d west indies I completed a 6g course and qualified as such in about six months but I haven't been welding for a while now But I have a question Can aluminum welding be done with an arc plant?
I keep back angling toward end as I fatigue and blow a hole w a high spot after. I notice your rod tip is angled forward book and instructor says perpendicular rod or 10 deg back into wled pool.. how are you getting away with it what am I doing wrong. I'm not.long arcing I'm feeling rod jam against material
Most videos I’ve seen refer to 1/8 rod. My aws test has us using 5/32. I passed my vertical but failed the overhead due to some perosity or maybe it was trapped slag on both the coupons. I’m wondering what heat would you normally run (ballpark) on a 5/32 rod (7018) I know machines vary mines a Lincoln but what is a good ballpark I’ve been staying around 142.
Should I be at a certain angel when welding over head and is it bad to push instead of pulling because I notice myself getting out of place once I’m mid ways down the weld I gotta test this Friday and I’m just wondering if it bad to start off pulling and end off pushing
Only think I gotta ask is: what amps did you run for each pass? You said 120 amps for the root but didn’t mention any of the remaining amperage. Please let me know!
I do a lot of bevel to but 1g with a 2g stringer with fluxecore. I'm having trouble running stringers on the flat edge it has a roll sometimes that I have to grind out. I would rather run the fill 2g but the company wants it done 1g. I'm guessing so the caps look better. I'm curious if you have any recommendations for the fill
"Overhead is just upside down flat." Wise words from my welding instructor.
Yeah, Agreed. He mentioned that in a video too.
I'd be like, yea no shit lol
@@jbone4217 4g it’s hard
That’s funny I heard the same thing in class today lol
Mine told me to turn the heat up. It seems to work for me
The American Welding Society was founded in the year 1919.
Love the instructional videos you guys do. Thanks a ton.
Thanks everyone, the contest has ended. Congratulations to the winner Patrick Cassidy. Thanks everyone for watching. Stay tuned for our future videos.

Do some open root 4G baby....6010/7018...yeah baby!!!!good stuff Jason
Please do a video on welding inside corners. Honestly technique on that has been the hardest thing for me
Such a great addition to weld.com!
R Dankers thanks for the support.

I really like your videos! Keep them coming!
David Hake thanks for the support sir.
Love the stick welding plate test really helps me learn a lot
John Duggan glad we were able to help. Thanks for watching.

I mean a 215 should have plenty of power for anything you’re doing

Good stuff man ur a hell of a teacher
Ronald Parady thanks man. We appreciate the support.
The American Welding Society was founded in 1919 and has been the leading cause of well stacked dimes since its formation.
Tell the rod what to do, not the other way around. That's a great little tip. Thanks.
Hi Jason. Great video. My welding machine does not have hot start or dig. Do I then just choose a little higher amperage?
Juan Gatticchi not really, I find that I use them for because they’re there. I never used them prior to getting into teaching. Most of the machines I used prior didn’t have these functions. You just have to develop a good technique for starting and maintain a good arc gap and you’ll be fine. The arc gap should be no bigger than the diameter of your electrode.

That's a great way. A fitter taught me that...Yeah there is a problem there, it make to much sense. 🤣mancub
gord johnson you could, I just prefer to do the tie in. It would only work in positions other than vertical though unless a downhill progression is allowed.
Cool Bob's younger brother

Thanks again Jason!
Kevin Lee to tell you the truth, they both ran great and either would be a solid choice if you’re in the market for a new machine.
Just the way it should be, keeping it simple. Awesome Bud 🤙🤙🤙
Would you make video on how to avoid hands from shaking?
alvin legson maintain 3 or more points of contact. 2 feet on the floor, put a hip against the material, brace an elbow anything you can do to stabilize yourself.
Well done Jason! How is Bob doing?
Well done Jason great teaching video bro, I'd be keen to see the strong back setup for this same weld :-) always proud of a pretty looking over head
Richard Solomon thanks for the support. I’m sure we’ll end up using some strong backs at some point. Just wasn’t necessary because of the fixture for this stand.
Aws 1919 good stuff in these past vids
What kind of camera are you using to video the Weld itself?
What is the year 1919 Alex?
great work army man
mohammed troy awe come on man Army? I’m a Marine 😂 thanks though.
@@GodslilRedneck23 sorry soldier
I always throw the stinger cord over my shoulder for the same reason you said just to keep the weight off the stinger and my hand that cord can mess you up
This video was so helpful. Thank you so much!
Wow you used 1/8” on the 3G and the 4G position on the root pass????? Nice sir very nice.
Very common in structural. He’s said before he was an ironworker or at least welding for the steel erectors; generally 1/8 7018 is the bread and butter of steel erection. I’ve had foreman’s that’d laugh you off the job if you ask for 3/32 or even 6010 or 6011(unless it’s open root)
Whatz up Welders it’s more about production really. 10 a day or better is pretty much the standard where I’m at.
Yep for sure. Most guys will demonstrate with 3/32”. I thought it was cool he used 1/8”
Whatz up Welders I rarely use 3/32” unless it’s on thinner materials. 1/8” all the way unless it’s really big then I’ll go to a 5/32”.
Whatz up Welders thanks man, gotta practice what I preach.
love the videos family
How the hell can you do that one handed 😂 that’s what I struggle with I just don’t have the steadiness to do that and be comfy doing it, if I can lean on something I can make it work

Any chance for an updated ceramic backing fcaw in 1g, 2g and 3g video in the future?
Andres Martinez we’ll add it to the list.
I appreciate your informative videos. Thanks for what you do. I only have one question, where can I get a shirt like the one in the vid??
my technique's for cover pass's fill left and righ first and the midle at last🤟
I’ve been putting the stinger cord around my shoulder it takes weight off of everything so I can support my electrode hand with the other so I’m more steady so better beads haha. Is that allowed at an actual job site?

Wikipedia is a great source lol
Brandon Rodda hey brotha don’t hate cause you didn’t know the answer
What happened to bob??
Matthew omg SAHME!! I hope he’s okay.
Are all 4G overhead need to have that backing plate?
Would you be able to show the bead sequence on a structural 4g test? I’m having trouble with the cap getting some undercut on the edge of the test
Is there a written test or is it just the hands on for awa certification?
Great video 💯🤙🏻 thanks for sharing
Hi I'm from d west
indies
I completed a 6g course and qualified as such in about six months
but I haven't been welding for a while now
But I have a question
Can aluminum welding be done with an arc plant?

Great work
1919, love the videos great job as usual!
Could y’all do a 3g open root plate test
so beautiful Your wreck thanks my dear Sar
still learning here but would a Groove weld be easier with a backing than without a backing
Most videos I’ve seen refer to 1/8 rod. My aws test has us using 5/32. I passed my vertical but failed the overhead due to some perosity or maybe it was trapped slag on both the coupons.

Should I be at a certain angel when welding over head and is it bad to push instead of pulling because I notice myself getting out of place once I’m mid ways down the weld I gotta test this Friday and I’m just wondering if it bad to start off pulling and end off pushing
What exactly is arc blow, or electro-magnetic blow back? Is there an existing video I can refer to?
Can we see a new video on keeping electrodes from sticking over and over? If there is already one please tag the video for me?
I wonder when AWS was founded. I hope someone could comment reagarding this topic
Would you ever have a dedicated backing strip/runon/runoff tab on a production weld, or is this only used for testing?
Testing only
and some times for full pen am use ceramic baccking strip root and fill one aide and gauging other side
You bent the rod on the second pass at the beginning end that's am I right or did I not see it the rod good?? Pros help
AWS was founded in March 28, 1919.
Only think I gotta ask is: what amps did you run for each pass? You said 120 amps for the root but didn’t mention any of the remaining amperage. Please let me know!
I was told to run the roots at 130A and reduce to 120A for fill and cap. That's CWB recommendations.
Mr phillip i want know when i weld 4g what the number but it in the machine 70 or 90 or what thanks for learning us 🌺🌺🌺🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I do a lot of bevel to but 1g with a 2g stringer with fluxecore. I'm having trouble running stringers on the flat edge it has a roll sometimes that I have to grind out.

I have trouble with porosity, it happens when I first strike up on the run off tab any tips?
What's happened to the " Unlimited " Test ? ?
Please how do I avoid a blow hole or getting a bigger hole during root pass. And if I ever get one how do I fill it up. Thanks
Nice work
Is your helmet auto darkening??
What is excessive reinforcement?
what is a good way to prop on 4g if you cant one hand it
Working on mine...
I’m in school working on my practice certs at the moment, I notice on my overhead I get low fill on the right side of my root pass, any pointers?
Like to see that Esab rebel 205 on some more aluminum put that little guy to work!!!
How can you see the puddle welding towards yourself?
Did he use a 1/8 rod? Can you use 3/32? Will it take more passes
Cool video, and AWS founded 1919. I'm probably too late for prize!
Watching the sparks land so close to that red beard... How many times you been on fire, man?!
DaugBüs Adventure only a few, but that was back in school. The beard is fireproof 😂
What size rods ? 1/8ths or 3/32 ?
