I was a helper in the 80’s working on the pipeline. Ground 100 miles of tracks out of 500 and 750 wall, 24 and 36 inch. Black and decker grinder and pipeliner wheels…. 8 bucks an hour and glad to be makin it!!!!

[@WesternWeldingAcademy]

Sounds like tough work. And $8 an hour was pretty good back then. Thanks for sharing your story!

0:19 He’s doing 6010 but would would have upped it to 6020 or maybe even 6030, especially digging roots out of the wagon tracks. I always keep the fat cap on top at the end so as to baste the meat and make them drool.

I’m in school right now. Y’all got any tips for 1/8 carbon with 6010 rods. I know they tend to look like crap no matter what you do. But I’m having trouble finding the right amps to do roofs with, I tend to blow out my bevel no matter how I do it

[@WesternWeldingAcademy]

When welding 1/8" carbon with 6010 rods, try setting amps between 70-90. Focus on maintaining a consistent arc length and steady travel speed to prevent blowouts on bevels. Adjust technique for better results.
