This is hands down the best, clearest, and comprehensive instructional video on TIG torches out there. Outstanding
I have a bic lighter that won't weld much. But it was an upgrade from the old matches.
Sir, you helped me understand so much it makes me want to learn more about this "welding ".thank you!
I am a wood worker.
This is the best welding channel. So little advertisment although he has a store. And for once someone who is actually a beast in welding, not just welding shopowner!
Thank you Weld Master Joda... Tig, Stick, Mig, Blow torch. This Kat does it all !!!
Plz carry CK Worldwide's 17 aircooled version of the flexloc!! By the way I purchased a tig finger from you about 6 months ago specifically for the weld test they give where I work now... It, in my mind/opinion, is a must have for a welder in their toolboxes! The test the give is I believe the same as the UA-31b maybe... It's a 6G 3 inch schedule 40 aluminum pipe/tubing with a consumable insert and the 3 different supervisors stand there with u and watch you lay down every single pass...They couldn't believe how steady my hands were, how uniform/even and nice looking my beads were because all they've seen is ppl freehanding it and fail quite often, but I owe it to you for putting out an awesome product that can help ppl such as myself improve their skill and to help attain great paying jobs!! And when it comes down to test time it's time to show them what you've got and ur is a big part of where my skill level is today!! Thanks from Tennessee!!
Your a natural teacher - Good job, with your videos.
from: aspiring student
Just picked up a Everlast PowerTig 200DX as my first TIG welder. Your information was timely as this unit has a plug for a water cooler, it came from the factory with an air cooled torch. I'll upgrade as my skill set improves.
So far I've done TIG brazing of dissimilar metal, some 4140, and mild steel work with it. I have to give you much of the credit for what I've learned about TIG. Thanks Jody.
This guy is a legendary weldor! I love the information and instruction that he gives. Fantastic stuff!
very passionate man when it comes to welding, really appreciate your videos Jodey, Welder in training here, just got on 2G TIG last night, going to try an test out combo as soon as i can weld stainless, down here on the gulf coast in the refineries/chemical plants, keep the videos coming thanks
You are so great. All of your videos help me dive deeper and deeper into understanding welding. I am a pipe welder at Electric Boat, just started in February. I have come a long way in my technique as well as knowledge of welding from your videos. With such intensive procedures and quality necessary at my work, I need your kind of detailed information and knowledge to get a better understanding of the art. You hit important components of tig welding that are simply not taught in school, and you help give me advice and understanding to build enough confidence to challenge myself and step up and try new pieces, metals, joints, despite the risk of getting a bad record for rejected pieces by melthrough, lack of penetration, etc. You are very knowledgeable and I look up to you as a guide to strive to be the best welder I can be. Thank you!
Jody
In previous videos I watched you use a CK #9 flex head and a CK#20 (water cooled) swivel head - got so impressed I purchased 2 of them for my welders (I sold the Miller 180 Sycro and the Miller 200 Synco and replaced them with a full bundle 200DX including wireless foot control) I have also use the CK #9 for setup and tweaking and then when getting down to just pushing weld I use the CK #20 and will weld at 120/160 amps till my fingers melt (even with a tig finger - takes a long time). The welders I sold went with a miller cooler and the swivel head torches - I have stayed in touch with the people that purchased the ones I sold and they just love the torches and your recommendations and both of them have subscribed to you.
Also gave the each 2 tig fingers to make sure they can do a great job
Can't get better than that
thx

May I you commend you for providing a very professional lecture and detailed demonstration on TIG torch welding techniques. I'm a retired old time welder and structural engineering technician, having started back in the mid 60's. These welding videos bring back memories of having completed jobs that left one with a feeling of satisfaction, having accomplished something of value with one's own hands and skills.
Nice
Grant Walker. nice
I could not have explained my feelings any better. I'm not a professional but I love the process of welding and what comes out of it. I honestly can say that I got hooked on welding from watching Jody's videos and was giddy when I bought my Everlast welder.
Thanks Jody. Knowing the correct TIG torch to use has always kind of baffled me. To me your experience parallels my welding history. Weld school (Tulsa), boilermakers, pipe-fitters, then aircraft
industry. Now that I'm retired I can upgrade my "weldshop" and just have fun. Your website and vids are fantastic, thanks for all the hard work you put into it.
All thumbs up!!! Always learn and smile a lot while watching Jody. Quick and gets to the point. A wealth of great advice, tips and context for whatever you're welding
Man oh man, your welding skills just blow me away! Those welds looked like they were done by a computerized machine only better...I guess that comes with lots of practice. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Good video. I have been Tig welding since 1979 but always learn something. I mostly weld 4130 aircraft weldments. My favorite torch is the water cooled weldcraft 20. I got over 20 years out of a Linde HW 20, I consider that pretty good since I used house water for about ten of those years. Current machine is a Miller syncrowave 351 but I really want a Dynasty 200 dx after trying one at a trade show. Thanks for the great videos. Kevin
What amazes me most about your welds is the amazing consistency of the final product. I like to think my welds are almost as strong, but even with bracing and practice I rarely get such a consistent bead.
One of your five best all time videos! Very comprehensive and very concise. You answered every question I had and then some.
You are very good explaining everything. I don’t get board watching your videos and I can understand more because you explain things more thoroughly . Thank you.
Man, great video. One of your best, most informative yet!
Yeaahh! Finally someone have explain which way is good in this "torch-jungle".... I really appriciate! God bless you!
I changed my primeweld Tig-225x from the CK 17 to a air cooled flex loc I used it for about 3 months and I found it was getting hot on me and having to lay down for awhile. I broke down and got the max cool 3000 water cooler for the tig-225x put it together with the flex loc 230 my welding time has increased ten folds over it's impressing how a water cooler can do so much and extend your welding time. and I also swear that it increased my duty cycle on my welder too I've never overheated my machine yet or hit duty cycle yet.
I purchased a miller cc st 280 and a Lincoln 210 Mp I like the way you share your knowledge to people like me I can't afford school thank you very much from Guatemala I'm planing to teach to extremely poor people engish and welding
This is the best welding site on the You Tube channel, Thank You Sven
Now I can see why This Old Tony keeps bringing you up in his videos..... You got some seriously impressive skill there w/ that weird walk you was doing on the steel in the beginning.
Great job of explanation you are doing. Watched lots of your videos when I was studying welding at trade school.
Love all your videos Jody. Thanks so much. You have taught this old dog some new tricks!
Holy smoke; so much to know, to learn - thank goodness for videos such as yours. I am totally new to tig welding, deciding to go tig rather than oxy for mostly brazing purposes, of which I have had nothing but problems: much smoke, spatter and the blowing of holes in 3 mm mild steel plate, as I have tried and failed time and time again to bronze fill cutouts of a metal sculpture I have been working on for some time now. I have up and down the amps, paid particular attention to ridding the metal of surface impurities, cut the argon flow just to see if it would make a difference, but all my efforts have been in vain. My machine is a UNI-MIG WELDING ARC 170 DC INVERTER AIR COOLED using pure ARGON, so if you or any of your subscribers/viewers have any hints and tips it would be greatly appreciated. By the way, your welds are nothing short of works of art. Just an observation, dear sir, but true nonetheless. Best wishes.
By FAR the best Tig man out there!!! THANK YOU!
Chris Meyer Mr. Tig who? Never heard of her lol
Your welds are bloody amazing.
It is always a pleasure watching this expert and learning.
Thanks Jody, all those tips really help a lot.
One of your best videos to date! Thank you for some much needed information!!
excellent as always, Jody! -DH
I'm looking forward to using the water cooled torch that came with my everlast welder. It was a pleasant surprise to find it in the box with the welder. I really wasn't expecting it.
Great job!!! It is really hard to locate all the variants out there, and yes, I know there is many more options out there, but this one really helps out allot, Thank you
sir thank you!I I IM 43 BEEN WELDING SINE 94, MY FATHER HAD HIS OWM BUSINESS! WE WELDER EVERYTHING ,FROM30,00GL.TANKS TO STAINLESS MANIFOLDS.ONLY THING ALLY NO ALUMINUM.I ONLY SAW IT 2,all those years.I'm very good with stick,excellent at tig .love your kids man!!!
jody u r the man. i wish i could work with u i would learn a gell of alot. am 33 years old and just started welding, i have the MIG down to a T but TIG is an artform in its self. keep the vids coming love it.
regards dan, salford, england UK
I'm a welding student I gotta thank you for all your vids I wanted to mention a good tig practice is using a socket wrench to walk the cup and get the motions right although I'm still having some trouble with my root pass 6g
Well presented information. All the classes I've taken and jobs worked have been with a 20 style water cooled. Want to see more of the weld tech I like that the whole head comes off like that.
With something that thick(4130) I was trained to preheat the part..gorgeous welds by the way..we just received 3 Miller dynasty 280 with coolers. Mine was plumbed into a central chiller..major pain which is why we bought the coolers. Oh yeah we also bought an air cooled Lincoln portable 110/220 tig which was mounted on a plant tricycle with two argon bottles..the extra bottle was for purging. Very handy unit for welding on Common nozzle assemblies.
An excellent presentation Jody, you answered a number of questions I didn't even know that I had. When eventually I can afford to set a TIG machine beside my stick welder I am sure I will have a much better idea now as to what features and capabilities will best suit my TIG needs.
Always an excellent presentation!
Thanks, Jodi! rc
This may be my favorite video, so, so much good information! Many thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Hello, thank you for the detailed explanation. I could watch these videos for hours.
I myself have been looking for a CK worldwide flex loc 150 for years. Unfortunately, they are outrageously expensive in Europe.
Greetings from Austria / Schwechat
This is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks, Jody!
Really great video that answered so many questions. Thank you very much. Definitely buying stuff off your website this week. Michael
My UniMig ACDC200 came with the big assed 26 that you showed at 18:15. It is SO heavy on the hoses and quite a pain to use.
I am looking to get a new torch for lighter work and this video was fantastic.
Thanks for the awesome vid! would LOVE to see the micro in action! Could come in very handy...
Excellent information, thanks for sharing.
I bought the CK17-12-rsfsx. I might have screwed up that model but close to that letter combo. Love the CK light gas hose set ups. All made in America also. (Quality). Will be buying my CK stuff here since your a distributor. Awesome info
I really like when you give general summations like "This is the type/size/number I use for most jobs." For instance, the gas lens, torch size, tungsten size etc. It gives me a good reference point to use all the addt'l details with.
Also, brilliant move in becoming a product distributor. You've built such a bulletproof reputation that if you say something works better than what I'm using, I'm gonna believe you. High time you started making a few bucks on that :) Just don't abuse the trust please. Best wishes & thx for the videos.
Great information, learnt lots as usual.Thank you.
loving the look of that weld-tech stubby torch Jody
Obviously Jody is a big fan of air cooled torches but there's no place in my shop for that.Been in business 30+ years and water cooled does everything...period!Perhaps the hobbyist is fine with air cooled but just can't imagine anyone operating a welding shop without water cooled!
Love your videos! I watch all of them. I had to go out and buy a water cooled #20 CK flex-lock torch about a year ago after seeing the video on that. Useing a #7 cup and stubby gas lense. My welder is an old Miller Sycrowave 350LX from the late 1990's I picked up used for a song. I am currently biulding a custom motorcycle out of all stainess steel. I have pretty much learned to TIG weld from watching your videos! Thanks Jody!
I'm sold on getting a water cooled torch for my everlast tig welder. I like the fact the torch is smaller.
Awesome Video! very informative.. my 3favs were the number CK20 Wcooled, weld tech stubby, and the air cooled number 9
some beautiful work there, nice one!
good info from the man who's used them all, thx!
This is exactly the video/information I was looking for.
I have a Everlast PowerPro 236 which came with #26 torch and i've been looking for a smaller torch but had no idea how the numbering system worked. I think I'll be going for a CK#9 (or maybe that Weldtec Stubby Torch) after watching this as I'm not welding anything too thick and no long runs.
Don't feel bad about getting confused with the numbering. When I first got my Everlast welder I was in the same boat. Going with the CK torches is a good idea if it is within your budget. They make welding much more comfortable.
great video. loved the "evo manifold" reference lol. I would love to get one of those i head roto torches.
you answered every queston i could think of
Thanks for that helpful video, Jody!
Nice video. I have a kemppy inverter 220 with wc 20 style torch. Also bought the ck flex loc with the super flex hoses... red and blue . Its ausome but i found that with the help of the tig finger a simple nuber 20 tourch could do almost every thing i need. I take the ck out every 2_3 months. Looking forward for the most needed tig cups review. Thanks from israel. Eran
"Water cooled machines" Some of those old time TIG machines, like 330's, passed the water through the machine with solenoids and the whole deal. Great videos. S/F....Ken M
Thank-you. excellent information.
Tremendous films, I really appreciate your time and all the great information. Just subbed. Thanks
Now that I know you have a store I will be buying all my torches from you in the future; I have a Dynasty 200DX
i think im gona start back up with the stubby 17 sounds like what i need thanks for all the info.
This video is gold
Fantastic video! Just what I needed. Thanks!
Sensational! - just no other appropriate word for it - now I finally understand
love the long videos
Great video brother. I like the longer videos, more learning is better than less!!
Jody - I really appreciate your explanations of the various torches - certainly clears up most of my questions. I have a couple that I did not explicitly hear an answer to:1) Can you use a water cooled torch without water? ie, can you use a #20 but without water - but use as a #9 rating? 2) Can one use tap water to supply the torch (with appropriate adaptation) and have the discharge go down the drain? (rather than circulate - or is it required to have ice-cold water?) Thanks again for your clear, information-packed and enjoyable videos.BestHugh
Nice video, Judy. You asked about torches and welders we are using. I have water-cooled CK flex-loc 230 amp torch with a #7 gas lens and a 10 year old Lincoln Precision Tig 225. If I can find the money I just might get an Inverter, but I had a bad experience a cheap Everlast a few years ago so I will probably look for a used Dynasty.
Отличная работа!
Man you make it look so easy :-)
mig-tig & stick welding each have their unique skill sets. so that means alot of practice in each... the more torch time the better..
Awesome video, Jody! The stubby i-head torch looks killer. I've also been looking at their i-head ball joint model. If you can do special orders, I'll probably be dropping you a line soon to order up a WTB-20-25DX package for me.
I just started welding with a syncrowave 300 the size of a small refrigerator with a water cooler. No peddle just learning the old fashion way.
Hey jody i wanted to make sure before i considered getting one. The CK 150amp flex lock uses the same collet gas lens and rooster tail as a normal 17 style torch correct? Want to make sure i dont have to get a different style hardware
can you post a video about what cup i should use for what situation?
thank you.
Always something interesting thank you.
Super helpful for a new TIG welder like me!!!
Thanks for keeping it real.
Great stuff Jody!! Thanks!!
Great information, as always.
Damn great video...thank you...going to be calling to make some purchases!
very good videos. I do not understand English very well but still I learned a lot. is difficult to find good videos on welding Spanish. and hopefully one day make videos in Spanish and it would be very useful for Spanish speakers. greetings from mexico.
Water around an undersized power cable that's a brilliant idea, what could possibly go wrong
you always have the best vids Kudos
Thank-you a lot, excellent information.
REPLY
I'm really looking forward to getting the water cooled torch that comes with my Everlast TIG welder. I'm getting tired of using bulky air cooled torches.
Liked the video a lot! Thanks.
Another amazing video!
You are amazing. You make THE best welding videos online hands down. Most educational, most friendly, most straightforward, everything. You would be the number one guy to apprentice under for sure. Speaking of which, are you willing to take on an apprentice? *wink wink*
Great video. Thank you!
I like the trim line and the roto head. And once i get a bit better at tig i will hafta decide on wich one to outfit my everlast mts 221sti with.
