I know you’re super busy nowdays, but it’d be cool if you could squeeze out a fab diaries vid every 6 months or so lol. You explain stuff so well in layman’s terms, you’re a super talented dude and a natural in front of the camera.
Awesome series…just watching these two series has already elevated my tig process. I’ve heard the saying of crazy high amps and pulsing the pedal, but seeing and trying it, makes all sense now. Can’t say thank you enough. Truly amazing and the passion for passing on the tips and tricks…priceless, much respect👊
I like how you explained it as the construction of the story, when it comes to welding and in what order you weld. Very well put together and I appreciate the tips. In your last video you had mentioned about MaxiFlex gloves, lovem and have used them for years. I'm sure you know about these but figured I'd post it anyway (in case anyone else is interested in some quality gloves) You should give Tillman TrueFit Top Grain Goatskin Performance Gloves 1470, these are mechanic type welding gloves and Tillman 1488 Truefit Top Grain Goatskin TIG Welding Work Gloves, these are very thin like a MaxiFlex but are a very flexible leather glove, you can feel everything with them.
THANK YOU!!! 33:00 to 38:00 was amazing and exactly what I was hoping to see... no talking, no music... just 5 minutes of EXACTLY what it looks and sounds like when you are working your way down a part. That was immensely helpful Morgan... I'm sure I will watch that part over and over. The prepping of the open corners was super helpful, as was the advice to use .045" filler to avoid "overfilling" a nice 45* beveled edge. My open corners aren't as perfectly filled as yours were.... so I might stick with the 1/16" filler just to get a little more material into my cover pass. Just curious what the machine was set at when you were doing your pedal whomps. What sort of current range are you pedaling between? (100 on the low pedal to maybe 225 on the high pedal?) It looked like you were using a LOT of pedal travel so it seems like it might be a pretty large swing in amperage for that cover pass. Awesome Video... worth the wait! ;) @MightAsWellK5
Your intros get me every time, from the simple hello to you’ve had energy supplements and didn’t work out. Good stuff as usual, gracias for welding schooling.
soo happy somebody is teaching proper weld design in motorsports. Being from aerospace and seeing all this work out there with soo many potential crack propagations is scary to see.
Thanks for watching! 25-30 cfm. You might get better color with more. I try to conserve some of the argon if it’s possible. Post flow 10 seconds. If I want a little more, I’ll hold the tungsten in the area contacting the part, then hit the pedal. That will buy another round of 10 seconds.
Always inspirational! Would love to get a shop tour video, how big of a studio you operate, the tools you use and your team of workforce employees! Thanks for your time and sharing your knowledge.
Thanks again for the videos. It is very much appreciated! I love the tips on prep, dual pass, weld spacing, and welding sequence. One suggestion is to use a glass cup for filming. It would help viewers see more of the puddle. Also, if you have a 3d printer I believe there are files online for rigs to hold the welding filter and camera. That’s if you don’t want to spend a bunch on a dedicated welding camera.
Thanks for taking the time to do this, that bumper would have to cost 3-4K when you figure in time and materials! Nice stuff takes time to build idc what anyone says
Your welding vision is very good. The beads are so cool. I got a lot of know-how from you. Thank you. I envy and respect your ability. I will cheer for you in Korea.
That’s amazing crazy amount of work for a bumper, how come your pumping foot ped instead of using the pulse on the machine ? Guessing it’s for easier consistency with round parts short welds?
What kind of tungsten do you use? Also, is there any reason you don't put the breather holes under the intersections during initial fabrication and just possibly have one breather hole per assembly on the outside? Thank you
As always, I appreciate you man. what grade of weldnuts do you use?I'm directing this to you because i see the safety factor you abide by and i trust your opinion! Specifically if we are talking about oem replacement weldnuts. Not a fabricated setup, Im sure design style might allow for a different configuration miss information is bad in my location. I need to replace a factory weldnut for a rear seat mounting bracket to the floor. The original grade is unknown. Do you believe there is an embrittlment issue with grade 8 (10.9 metric) weldnuts or is their design made to accommodate for that (following proper welding practices) given the added material tabs? Is grade 5.5 metric adequate? Any info might instil some confidence in my choices thank you. Yes iv looked at the debate between sheer and bend. Any opinions on fine or course threads for the same application ??

Really appreciate you putting these together. No music, real speed, real sounds, etc helps a ton. Wealth of knowledge here for us DIY garage rippers
Thank you for doing this series Morgan!

@@MorganClarkeDesign1 nor should you have to, I won’t quote some cliche plop. Have a great one dude.
Great video. It shows me that fantastic fabrication is not magic. Takes years and attention to detail. Thank you
Practice makes perfect, or semi perfect
soo happy somebody is teaching proper weld design in motorsports. Being from aerospace and seeing all this work out there with soo many potential crack propagations is scary to see.
Thanks for watching!! Appreciate the feedback!!
Love these tutorials, keep them coming and thank you for taking the time Morgan .
Thanks for the support!
Thank you for the info provided, but was wondering about the Gas CFH setting, post flow time, and Amperage…? Thanks again, you are The Man.
Thanks for watching! 25-30 cfm. You might get better color with more. I try to conserve some of the argon if it’s possible. Post flow 10 seconds. If I want a little more, I’ll hold the tungsten in the area contacting the part, then hit the pedal. That will buy another round of 10 seconds.
Amperage anywhere from 195-255
been tig welding for 20 years and still liked watching the video nice job cant wait for the next one.
Thank you for taking the time to shoot these fabrication and welding videos. Very much appreciated.

I could watch this all day! Keep this content coming, Thank You!
Awesome video, thanks for doing this! I learned a lot.
Thanks for watching
Some fab work done here 👏
Awesome work I’ve been looking at your welds on Instagram for years trying to figure out your process. Thank you really appreciate it

Very informative, great video series. Thank you.
Great video series super helpful I am building my first tig welded cage right now and learned a lot as far as you’re prep process goes thank you
Sweet! That’s what it’s all about.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos.
They are always interesting and informative.
Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the series Morgan showing this old dog some new tricks 😎😁
Good stuff Morgan. That transformer machine has its own welding arc noise. Picked up a few tips. Thank you. What was your argon flow? And Er 70 or 80?
Definitely does! 25-30cfm er80 sd2
Hey Morgan! What kind of earplug/headphones? are you rocking in these videos?
I have grown fond of the Jaybird x3’s!
Inspired to get back at it and practice!
Love it!!! Repetition is the father of learning
Who makes that air blow gun you’re using ? Love the videos
I get the air blowers from the snap on truck. You can find them on Amazon. Probably the same units
Thanks for watching
DaVinci is giving a free master class. ✊🏽
all that can be said is thank you!
Your welcome
Thanks for all the great info ! I took a lot away from this . 🙏🙏
Thanks for taking the time to do this, that bumper would have to cost 3-4K when you figure in time and materials! Nice stuff takes time to build idc what anyone says
100% that bumper, the modified old bumper, including machined pickups points puts it past 4k$

Very Nice....Maybe a Clear Cup for Viewing?
Great vid, approximately how long would it take to weld out a part like this?
10 hours. Thanks for watching
Thank you. Amazing!
Awesome info! What are you running the pulser at? Sounds like 60ppm. 75/25 background? Thank you!
And amps? 180-200?
Pulse was set at rf1ps
@@dannyliggett-ij5we I could hear the pulsar in the background in addition to the foot pump.
This machine has no pulse settings.
No pulse on this old bastard. Just foot.
225amps.
Are you drilling 1/8” or 1/16” vent holes at each tube intersection?
1/8
Thank you!
What amps are you running on the second pass?
195-255, he mentioned it in a reply to another comment
Awesome video !!
I heard aluminum at the end. Stainless?
Aluminum, silicone bronze, stainless exhaust/header, chassis welding
@@MorganClarkeDesign1need that silicon bronze video

I too like wire wheels to ensure random spectators keep their distance.
What tungsten are you using are you using pure Aragon and how much cfm are you running
Refer to root pass part 1 video
Lol info on that spray !!
Cool
Damn...nothing surprises me anymore 😂 😂
Lol I don’t know what you mean… but I feel the same about my life.

90 welds- also known as “ fillet “ welds. Not the fish.
What is Welding for 800..... Alex!..... What is welding with out filller material?...... Beep Beep Beep.... Autogenous welding?.....
Sorry, your answer must be in the form of a question.
Fusion welding…. I always botch the professional term. Call it airbrushing as well.
@@MorganClarkeDesign1 also true
