Hey mate, nice upgrade to the shed. Engineer here, used to live in a welding bay, a long time ago. Just some gentle, constructive advice here: Welding produces full-spectrum ultraviolet radiation, including the most carcinogenic frequencies (called UVC). The sun produces UVC also, but it's mostly blocked by the upper atmosphere. There's no safe level of exposure to UV-C. It's very dangerous to expose any skin to the arc flash. Hands and arms are especially vulnerable, as is the vee of your neck. It's no fun talking about melanoma or SCC with a dermatologist. You don't need specific gloves to start with, but at least wear full leather gloves and a heavy cotton work shirt. Leave a window or door open as well, because the fumes are also bad. Great that you're having a crack at welding. Good skill to develop. I'd just hate to see you fry your DNA in the process. I'd also hate the audience watching to think that's a good idea. Seems like a nice home shed fixture table - should be good for making brackets, etc, square and true. Well done showcasing it as an obvious upgrade from the 'council cleanup' welding table.
F__U__C__K this bloke Scotty. Cadogan thinks that he is an "EXPERT" on everything. He's just a lonely old man who is too smart for his own good. No wonder that he doesn't have any friends. He has to have an opinion on everything.
Here here. A lot of people weld without gloves on RUclips. Freaks me out. I have TIGmate RX gloves. They aren’t the thickest but they allow to do finicky work without the exposure to UV. Plus they are $16 a set.
Hey Scotty mate one tip for you that im learning on the tig is to fuse weld first before using filler rods as once you can do that then start to use the filler rod.
I have done the same thing with the shelves on tool trolleys and benches I’ve put together - it’s so much better than having crap fall off the back of the shelf. I like the zip tie trick - I’ll have to remember that one. I can’t critique your TIG welding - you’re doing far better than I’ve managed. But your videos are getting me a little inspired to get the torch out again to give it a go. The tips in the comments have been excellent.
G'day mate good job. Just remember not to put anything flammable (rags, etc) under there or your legs might get a bit warm while your welding (speaking from experience). Canola cooking spray is a good alternative to anti spatter too......way cheaper. You'll be banging out quality work in no time..
Scotty, in your credits you need to acknowledge that Au falcon that hauled this home for you. :-) Thanks for making the video on putting the welding table together. Definitely makes me wanna buy one!
For TIG welding a rule of thumb is what number cup it is is how many Liter/Hour of argon flow is required. With bigger cups and more tungsten stick out, bump it up a couple L/H. And set the post flow up so it keeps the tungsten cool, and hold the gas flow over the weld until it stops
Morning Scotty, I know it's early days for the restart of you channel...have you reached out to any sponsors for tools yet...I do like that your showing content that the average Joe can relate too and hopefully get more people in there sheds to have a crack themselves...but as the old saying goes a tradesman is only as good as the tools that they use....I'm definitely not a tradie but have felt the pain using crappy tools working around the house or on cars, just bumping my collection to mid spec made it so much easier and actually enjoyable...at least I don't get the knock on the door from the neighbour any more, returning tools that I threw in a hissy fit 😂.
Nice job Scotty, i looked at a bench a few yrs ago but ended up making/welding my own from a 10mm plank of tread checker plate which used to be an old bbq plate! Tig welding, check if the electrode diameter is less than the thickness of material your welding and it must be clean. Glad you like the new weld trolley !
Scotty, almost universally when you grip a tool that requires dexterous action you should holdout it with you finger pointing down the tool. So, index finger on top of the carving knife, index finger points down the panel saw, index finger points down the screwdriver.... try that with your welding grip.You might find you have finer control.
I'm no welder but I learnt to TIG on my tinny, my opinions means nothing but I feel like you really need to weld up a stool so you're comfy, its so much easier to learn when you're sitting up above the job imo also feel you just need to dial the settings in on your machine and you'll be fine mate. I'm sure there's others who will correct me if I'm wrong. All the best mate.
Hey mate, I hold my tig torch like holding a large pen. Allows pivoting whilst maintaining distance and control. Practice with no filler rod until your comfortable with the heat settings which you can monitor via heat transfer colour on the metal.
On this episode of Scotty's Garage...... Scotty's neighbours cut down a Melbourne rainforest, Scotty puts together a stable welding table & earns his native name of Weldswithblobs! Just remember Scotty, If you ain't burnin', you ain't learnin'! You'll need a sticker next that says "Welders do it in all positions!"
Hey mate unrelated to video but I'm quite sure I seen an old video with you and a chrysler centura in it? Plates ' Dog265' or something like that? I love Chrysler Centuras had a few back in the day!
@@blownhemi Keep adding tables, two would give you a nearly 2 metre long bench. You could also add fold up wings like they used to have on old dining tables.
@@blownhemiwait until you start on that glass display case still in the box behind you. It’s worse than any ikea thing I’ve ever built! And the added danger of breaking a piece of tempered glass…… I ended up using duct tape to hold the glass pieces in place while putting the plastic corners onto them.
Hiya Scotty, I bet your Lady would have a can of anti-spatter in the kitchen pantry. Canola spray works perfectly well, BUT NEVER leave the can on your welding bench.
I'm no welder but i've watched a lot of youtube videos and you don't look comfortable when welding. I think position and comfort are an important part of making good welds. In any case it's gotta be better than that other "table" you were using. She approves. :)
Fits in the boot of a AU falcon. Scott No friends . The neighbour is cutting a rainforest down 😂😂😂 i Scott No friends either sometimes I call the wifey or the son but he’s only 13 and not interested in cars . Cool video… catch you next video
Hard to tell from the video but looks like tungsten out to far and your not holding it close enough to workpiece, grab yourself a gas lens if you want that much stickout
Think I would give you a good run for your money on the worlds worst. I have good days and bad days much like you do. Rome wasn't built in a day, we will get there with enough practice.
@DodgyBrothersEngineering tried my hand at aluminium yesterday. Surprisingly, I was able to lay some shitty looking beads down, but I know exactly what I need to do now. I will get the hang of it
@@blownhemi did you see how much easier it was to get a puddle going with ally compared to the mild. Just remember you need to put in extra prep work for it, and control the temp of the work piece. There is a reason they make heat sinks out of ally, that sucker will soak up all heat you give it and turn stuff into a blob PDQ.
@DodgyBrothersEngineering yeah, it puddles well. I'll just have to play with amps and stuff to get the welds I want, and yeah, I know that stuff has to be clean. Using the peddle helps as well
@@blownhemi the quick puddle is a double edge sword. You need to keep your gaps closer, because it is easier to burn edges. When dealing with thinner ally I sometimes would point the tip away slightly from the join point to get the puddle started, because by the time you realise there is a puddle going, you could be only fractions of a second away from blowing a hole. I found ally both easier and harder to do.
@@blownhemi Thanks Scotty. Watch out for that John Cadogan guy though, he criticizes everything done on RUclips but if you watch his channel you will notice that most his tools never move and don't look like they have ever been used. He's a crazy and bitter old man for sure.

I got a sheet of gal and folded it up at work to make my bench a welding bench. But now I kinda want one of these. Would be handy.

Go to the kitchen and get the Canola oil spray it will do same as anti spatter at a fraction of the cost just don't put too much on the join

If you had welding magnets could've used them to hold the tray up or bang a screwdriver through the hole if you don't have cable ties.
@@TC-yx2ss good point
Well that's a definite improvement! The big question tho is how are you going to get the wagon up onto the table?
I'd need four tables. One for each wheel. In truth though, it would be cool to have a chassis jig or rotisserie
