Do a solar flux video, with stainless, please.
Jody is a walking, living, breathing encyclopedia of immense weld knowledge and skill! One of my favorite weld experts to watch.
When I started welding I didn't have an experienced all process welding teacher. Jody taught me everything I watched his videos everyday over and over pausing where I needed. He was my teacher. Was able to get really good. Than we got a much more experienced teacher and he got me cert ready in 3 months way before the people in my class that didn't take my advice of watching wielding tips and trick videos.
For sure, awesome content and very helpful
@@2000jago I used to pause on puddles to see the diameter/as well as on settings he'd post in video, sometimes even on stick out for Tig and such to see if I was doing it right lol. Rewind too
I started Welding in 2018 at a food production facility.
I picked it up pretty quickly (luckily I had some old heads to teach me the tricks to doing repair welds on the production floor on dirty old joints in hard to reach places having to weld in weird positions)
I became very passionate about the craft, it was all I could think about all the time. I found this channel and watched a couple of hours worth of Jody's videos just about every single day of the week.
Fast forward to today, I work at a different food facility and my boss compliments me on my welds all the time, people comment on how much knowledge I have of the metallurgy and technical things about backing, purging, dissimilar metal welds etc.
I'd just like to thank you, your videos have gotten me to the point where I have more than TRIPLED my income and furthered my love for the craft.
This is proof that if technology is ruining the youth, it is only the fault of the youth. There is an endless amount of knowledge on the internet, whether you choose to learn it is entirely up to you.
You're just such a fantastic resource, Jody! Thank you for the knowledge, time and effort you put into these videos.
You guys call it sugaring, here in New Zealand we call it "cauliflower" and if you're in the dairy industry you'll be looking for a new job real quick.
Thanks for these videos, you're a real one. I bought one of your tig fingers years ago, maybe 8 years? Still going strong and have saved a fortune on toasted gloves. I couldn't do handrail work without it. The first thing I do with every young apprentice is send them to this channel.
Jody I had a really good instructor in school but your vids have really added a lot of depth and wisdom into the base knowledge that made me go from total greenhorn to extremely competent in a very short amount of time. Thank you for your work
my first welding job, was in fact TIG "fusion welding" we called it where i worked (we built sanitary plate heat exchangers). I used a purged hand operated turntable. one piece of stainless tubing ( probably 304) and a triclamp ferrule on one or both ends. there was a purge hole in the middle of the turntable where the gas goes in, and we put a plate with a hole on top of the pieces with tape over it, and poked a pin hole, and purged with about 12-15 cfh. one hand turns the table and the other hand holding the torch. it's cool to see a nice clean flat weld inside afterwards, but then we polished it out, so you'd never even know. on the subject of backing material to fill holes, i've found copper to be more suited to high amps (150A+), as it seems like aluminum sticks a bit more, and when you break it off it can take chunks of aluminum with it.
I took welding classes at a local tech school to broaden my skillset so I could offer more services and do more inhouse repairs /fabrication from my small, independent repair shop. My instructor was an older gentleman who had done it all including having his own successful welding business. His nickname was "The Kid", because he was that good. He even had that airbrushed on his helmet. You, sir, are nothing short of The Kid, Jr. Thank you for all your time and effort to make these amazing videos and for sharing invaluable information. I use no other source for improving my welding skills. FYI, I have both sizes of your TIG fingers.
Great video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. I am a self taught welder (that's me being generous about my skills), and your videos do help a lot!
As always never a wasted moment spent watching your channel Jody. Good stuff brother!!!
Dual flow meter is also really good when you dont want to haul two gas canisters with you. It saves your back ;)
Used my tig finger last night while mig welding. Doing a sequence that made areas hot and I didn't want to wait!
This is excellent timing. I'm in the middle of switching jobs and these stainless reminders are great. There will be stainless repairs at the new job. :)
Thanks again Jody, always appreciate your reminders and insight.👍
i learned welding from this channel and started practicing, now i am SMAW GMAW and GTAW welder. ❤️ love from India.
"You penetrate where you don't want to penetrate. Nothing good happens..."😆
I've been subscribing to your channel for a while and appreciate the contents. I'm trying to learn how to TIG and your videos are great.
Always great info Jody and I can’t thank you enough for the super easy to use Weldmonger app! 🙌🏻
I am amazed how a channel containing such great content is so underrated. So few views for videos containing such fine information. :(
This is a clutch upload! I'm doing stainless steel hydraulic arms . Thanks jody
Been watching a lot of your videos while I wait for my new welder to show up. I just wanted to tell you, I already bought both Tig fingers. Lol. Thanks for the Informative videos sir.
Good video as usual. Most of it not new to me but always good to remind or reinforce knowledge 👍
Jody you're the bomb, another great video buddy, although my everyday welding is mostly MIG I'm always checking your tig videos when a stainless or aluminium job comes in
Spring steel ( 5160 for example ) to mild steel, tig and mig welding would be a video I would like to see.
Possible/proper filler metals, preheating, post heating etc... Not sure how many other viewers are interested.
Metals and How to Weld Them (a Lincoln Electric book that Jody has recommended reading) talks about welding 5160.
Welding heat-treated parts is always a no no! Bolt, rivets,glue,dovetails the heat always damages the heat treat and or the base material
Does Jody do classes? I'd love a hands on master class with the legend himself!!
Great job on stainless welding Jody, I commend you "autogenously" and sincerely!🤣
thanks for the lesson, great video
I'm welding outside corners on 1,5mm thickness stainless wood hot tub ovens and that angle iron chill bars for outside corners is genius. I'm struggeling with the gas coverage for them.
Great advice! Thanks
Top video. I wondered for years how to get the colored welds. I changed to big cup gas lenses and it made the difference. A good video would be welding up heavy cast cylinder heads and castings. I can do it with added Helium but I saw a pro do it once and he did a five second preheat and used what I think was a number 5 relatively small cup and did a brilliant flowing weld on a heavy cast head with just argon. His puddle started so quick, I couldnt work out why it seemed so easy for him to get a clean deep penetrating weld and for me a PIA just to get anything clean on cast and my puddle takes a while to start.
i work with a guy that is hooked on his number 5 cup. i think he just likes being able to get it into tight spaces, and he's learned how to make it work well for him, so he doesn't have to change the way he does his work. he has almost 20 years more experience than me (3 years) and it shows.
learning a lot from your brilliant videos many thanks
Thank you! 👍👍👍 From Romania
Been welding ss for 15 years and good points
thanks for your videos! it helped me a lot to get started with TIG welding!
if you didnt have pack purge equipment, would it be possible to just fill the volume of the part (like in your sanitary tube example) with argon before welding? i know the welds will sag in a little more then with proper purge pressure, but could that be enough to prevent sugaring?
Just want to drop a comment here about Weldmonger Store, I orderd from the online store and recieved the package. and it was partially damaged and taped up and some of the items was missing i mailed Postnord and USPS to ask about it, got no response so i Emailed Weldmonger Store and they immediately shipped the missing items and MORE. Mutch respect to Jody and the Weldmonger crew, customer for life here.
Great job. Thanks
Thanks Jody
Hi man, for me you are like a tig Sheldon Brown master !!!
Bro plz put video for how to weld pipe final pass in cs&ss looking good
Can u show us the flux core gasless stainless wire...n what u think of it....
Hey Jody quick question for you I hope you can help. How can you tell the difference between 304 and 316 stainless? The shop im working in uses both 304 and 316 and 99% of the time it's grained both side removing any identification markings. Are there any differences in the puddle to watch out for or discolouration in the bead differences afterwards? ie 316 easier to keep silver/straw 304 more blue and purple? Thanks love the videos been watching for many years
Good stuff!
Been looking over a few of your video's. Have some exhaust work to do, going to try welding stainless on my mig using stainless flux core wire. Have you ever tried it ?
Any chance you could try to get some video of sugaring forming?
Thanks for this video!! I have been struggling for months to learn the SS butt joint for a weld test. These were excellent tips!!
Good video
EXCELENTE VIDEO¡¡ SALUDOS Y GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR¡¡
What are your thoughts about a Graphite backing block?
I need your help with the welding
Jody
Going to attempt to butt weld 36" seam 16 ga 304 Stainless steel.
Can I lay this flat and weld the seam all the way or should I skip around. I do not want any warping! Please write back or comment if you have time. Love your channel...
Unless you're a bit hung on the 'dime-stack' effect - just feed and keep your wire in the pool constantly.
Awesome. Original RUclips gangster welder 😀
Loved the term crispy critters 🤣
Sir i want to weld ss316L 1mm thickness coil and make a belt out of it.when i tried tig welding with argon gas and tungsten grinder my coil got destorted and warped around the joint.Have made very little use of filler metal and kept meter reading at 45 ampml.Request you to suggest a suitable solution
Please boss I need your help with the welding
Is there any reason pulsing wouldn't make sense for most of the welds in this video, esp. the outside corner?
hi from argentina!
Isn't boat railings done with no filler? If so, why?
Top notch👍👍👍
From Indonesia came to see 👍👍
thank you a godsend while i’m working on stainless butt joints in school today
Why are my welds on stainless not shiny?
كم درجه حراره يحتاج سلك اللحام 10/60 لكي أقوم في اللحام في وضعيه dawn في لحام البايب ارجو الرد
Thanks Jody LARRYMOORE
Why touch the electrode to the work at the end of the weld? I see it all the time but have never heard an explination.
With stainless I almost always use a non stop forward progression, and don't use the step method. I've had much bigger results and lower distortion by not pausing every dab, unlike on steel or aluminum that are much more forgiving with that technique.
As I'm prepping myself to weld my first exhaust to my car in stainless, I do wonder about back purging. I've seen a lot of people don't really care when it comes to exhaust systems but I've seen as many do care and back purge so that leaves me wonder how important it is for this case? Instead of back purging I'm considering using flux to coat the cuts. Thanks for the great videos!
I didn't purge mine when i did it and it's been 2 years. No cracks yet..
When I built my headers (304 SS) I used SolarFlux Type B and it worked well. The backs of the welds weren't shiny but there was no sugaring. I was lucky enough to get some from work so I didn't have to buy a whole can to use maybe 10% and have the rest sitting on my shelf forever. It's a little expensive but in the overall scheme of things it's cheaper than the argon would be.
@@kennethstaszak9990 Yep, Solar Flux works and it's a good alternative in many situations. It leaves a glassy, hard deposit on the back side that is hard to remove, but for an exhaust it probably doesn't need to be removed. If you've got a turbo downstream you'd probably want to use a wire wheel to remove any loose bits that might otherwise foul it.
@@benz-share9058 No, no turbo so I'm good on that front.
Good👍👍👍
Buenos días, si se puede poner subtitulos en español para la gente latina thank you
Good morning jody.
@weldingtipsandtricks do you prefer argon gas to tri-mix? My boss is asking me to use tri-mix but I’m having trouble with it.
Trimix is typically for MiG welding stainless steel. Argon is better for Tig
I make car wash vacuum cleaners. Its fun to weld on
Muito boa aula...👍👍🛠🔩🔧🗜🇧🇷🇧🇷
I have also seen them use carbon block for this.
For me stainless plate is a forgone conclusion I’m going to be bending and grinding flat it cause it’s so warpy. Most times I’m doing stitch welds instead of full welds just to get the warping down.
His torch says FUPA!🤣🤣🤣

So if .045” requires nominally 45 amps, .45” would require 450 amps?
Only holds true up to about.125”
@@weldingtipsandtricks And in my experience it matters whether I'm welding an inside corner or an outside corner or a lap joint. I also find that for very thin stuff (less than 0.035") in stainless I need even less than the one amp per 0.001" or maybe about 20-25 amps for the 0.035." I wish my welder could speak out the amps while I'm modulating with the pedal!
what is happening with podcast?
who hasn't sent a podcast since 3/14-22
308L isn’t that a dissimilar wire why wouldn’t you use something like a 316L?
308L is the most commonly used filler for 304L and a close match. For 316L I would definitely use 316L.
Going over old ground yet again.
Chromium oxide and if your sanitary welder you already know for those of you that don't the amount of cleanup that has to be in put into getting that out if it's too bad then you probably be looking for another job
Thanks Jody
