Have you done a video on how you ball your tungsten I am new to tig but started my welding glueing rusty handovers together for the uk mot tests first with oxy acetylene then mig which greatly reduced the fires now I am learning tig your videos have been the most helpful and instructive on utube keep up the good work if you ever find yourself in Strathmore Alberta you are always welcome thanks

Hey Dusty. Great videos. Lots of your videos mention balled tungstens but I have not seen one on how to ball your tungsten though.
Would’ve been great info to include in the video.

That was my first thought - soooo how do you do it? Over heat your tungsten on a piece of scrap?
Question which is so basic it’s probably why I can’t find a simple answer: how do you form the ball on the end of your tungsten?
It forms naturally as a result of the AC cycle.
Thank you for sharing that it was years before you learned the details you shared in this video, sometimes feel so stupid, why didn't I learn this sooner!
I’m just getting into the field found a job that kinda just through me right into it. Finding you videos is so clutch. Thank you. New subscriber for sure
Your videos are definitely helping me get started on my turbo cold side thank you
If you have a tranformer machine you can use thoriated tungsten and retain a normal grind angle and welding without a ball formed. The point can also help with penetration too.
What i do is taper (at 60°) the end of my tungsten with a bit of a flatnose and let it ball on its own if i'm using 70% neg - 30% pos balance. If I'm using more of a 50-50 or 30% neg - 70% pos (cleaning) balance, I will ball the tip of the tungsten to keep it from overheating and tipping over to one side or the other of the tungsten (deaxing)
What about tungsten prep for Stainless Steel?
My tungsten is messed up after 5 seconds of welding and sometimes even crack. Tried many different tungsten types and diameters and also all the settings I could think of.
(Never went to a welding school so I might just miss something)
Never got a ball on my tungsten like you show in the videos, not sure how you even do this.
When I try Alu its frustrating me 95% of the times. Stainless is so much easier
Solid gold brother
which video shows you how to ball your tungsten
Love your content. But unfortunately my machine can't run aluminum (dc only) do you have any stainless video in the works soon?
Just the tip
Dusty, sharing on FB for you.....cheers, Paul from Florida.....in the middle of a hurricane....
Stay safe Paul!
@@wayofthewrench thanks so much.....just got my power on yesterday, Sunday and installed new internet, been busy at work with fabrication on a tight deadline......cherrs, Paul..lots of aluminum TIG......this old body has a hard time getting into the tight spots of a 5x6x2.5 foot cube frame.....
Dusty, Your bravery for your recent creative career change is admirable and honorable sir. I salute you 🙏
Also, Your vid set / Shop is looking crisp and styled on point for sure. Be Well, Keep em’ Coming Teach! Content easily absorbed and awesomely APPRECIATED!

You’re laying it on a little thick bro
And I just want to know which tungsten is the best lol gonna try some laser tungsten soon 💯
There is no Best. They all have their uses. LaYzr is good with a pointy end, but doesn't ball good. It's good on thin stuff. I found 2% lanth great for thicker aluminum and running hotter. It's somewhat all based of personal preference and what your actually welding. Like asking what's the best tire... are you running in mud? Off road? Racing? Snow? Rain or just city summer driving? That's kinda what tungsten is like.
@@Proxtor hey thanks. I’ve been using ceriated which seems to work for everything decently. Wanted to try lanthanated next thinking it would last longer and not get the funky spiky build up on it after a while. Thanks for info 🙏
That's a great video👌. It's would be great to see a part two of this video explaining a bit more on frequency vs balance. ✌️
Hey Dusty love your videos! Would you be able to do some more content on stainless? Big respect, your videos have taught me tons!
Thanks LARRYMOORE
THANK YOU larrymore
I have been watching and learning from you for years, I have a question about welding cast 304 ss to 304 ss plate. Any advice?
You know you’ve got your hat on round the wrong way?
Okay so i'm not a years long pro. The ones around here that had are tho. For aluminum (AC) you do not want a pointed tip. For things like steel you want a pointed tip.
Hey I tried a way to message or email you to ask you questions but don't know how. Any way?
🌚
Always great information in these videos Bro. 🪙🪙
How does one properly ball said tungsten? 🪙)))))))
interested in this
Would’ve been some good info to include in the video. 🤣
YES! Every video I watch that says "ball your tungsten" has nothing about how you actually go about doing it.
Yeah, right? I watched the video waiting for this
Was wondering the same thing. Tell me more about these balls?
