Great video to demonstrate how to stack!!! Every welder seems to have negative comments and can do it better and their way is right ... for the sake of demonstrsighting how to properly stack ...fantastic ..thanks !!
Thanks for sharing that. People don’t realize we are teaching students MIG gun control. A monkey could set a machine hot and run straight lines on a plate. Plus after attending the Lincoln Electric Blodgetts seminar on welded joints I learned that it’s quite often that weldwents are over engineered/overwelded with no added strength. But I guess they know better than the legend. Thanks for watching. :)
@@f.e.oeeorch581 i think the arc sound (including the volume of spatter and the shape of weld deposit) can indicate that the voltage used is appropriate.
@@arienuzankhabibpranata I can say that you kinda have to weld on colder side of the spectrum to have a dime effect with mig although it’s not impossible to do it with a hotter arc
Yeah, that’s pretty common in the work place. Mostly teach this method for students to learn torch control but when it comes to production MIG welding it’s hot and fast.
I agree but short-circuit is still the number one used mode of metal transfer used in production welding hands down. Plus most production welds don’t need much penetration to serve its purpose. Learned that from the Omar Blodgett seminar. Way too much over engineering out there. Thanks for watching.
How do you do it with spray arc? I tend to get undercut on the top bead. Should i aim it more towards the top piece? This is good if your short circuiting but not good practice on spray or pulse.
Usually if your undercutting your top edge it could be work angle. But I would also check to make sure your voltage isn’t too high. You want that spray to be tight so the arc doesn’t spread to far.
@@weldzcool1147 i tend to overthink the gun angles. Like where im at, we have different size beads so multi passing is something i have to do to give it throat size and leg size. But I'm not sure if i should just aim the final bead right in the trough you get after root and first filler, im always afraid of undercutting that top edge with pulse spray. I usually sometimes aim it right in the trough it makes but i will try to till the gun a little up towards that top piece compensate with undercut. But i do a step and pause and let it wash but i know spray even pulse is sometimes prone to undercutting the top edge because of gravity and its much hotter than short circuit. Sometimes i just play it by how my puddle looks. Sounds like a bumble bee with some crackling sometimes not always .Usually if i clean it real well i get a more defined puddle that all i have to do is push and no manipulation.
@@sasacata well short-circuit is still the most common metal transfer mode used with GMAW. We teach our students in all positions using S/C first before we hit spray or pulse-spray. Although the penetration is low in comparison, its still sticks metal together.
@@weldzcool1147 Sucks to be the only person to tell you but you’re welds look nice in appearance but also if you were really trying to make a stronger weld a straight bead by pulling would be stronger but I don’t that was the goal here. Good job some nice welds
@@f.e.oeeorch581 these are basically for show. Will they hold? Yup but not practical in a production setting or most critical applications. They run hot and fast. So I agree with the straight pull but would also need way higher settings. We usually teach this because it teaches the students torch control rather than running a straight line that a monkey could do. Thanks for watching.
@@f.e.oeeorch581 you're not right either if you want your welds to be strong and pass the inspection they need to be done by pushing the puddle not draging

Awsome video I’ve really been struggling on my 3 pass fillet welds. Now I can hopefully use this technique.
Thanks heaps
Great video 🤙🏼
Thanks for watching. Keep at it, it only gets better
I thought that was great. My only comment would be to lose the music as it is just a distraction I feel. Good job though!
Thanks. Yea, I have eased up on the music in my most recent videos. A bit of a learning curve for me making videos. 😄 but glad you enjoyed it.
Great process🔥🇮🇩
Those welds look kinda cold to me.
Very good weld!
I think you have to delete the music background. So, your video viewer can hear the welding arc sound.
Yeah this is one of my first videos. Still learning how to make these better. But I agree the sound of the arc would be helpful.
When I do mig it sounds like a really fast buzzing

@@f.e.oeeorch581 ok thanks, maybe i can try this next.... 👍
My son works for a place that doesn't accept the 'circle' method. They want straight push/drag, and it has to be smooth.
Yeah, that’s pretty common in the work place. Mostly teach this method for students to learn torch control but when it comes to production MIG welding it’s hot and fast.
Can't stand when people use short circuit mig on thick material yeah it looks great but its weak as hell stick with spray transfer way faster as well

I'm guessing lof but it looks nice
Welding like to sport to Channel
Please caption when when weld-speed is not real-time. Otherwise one learns nothing.
Good idea. Thanks
What type of wire are you using, flux, solid or metal cored?
Solid wire. ER70S-6
@@weldzcool1147 any reason why you are using short circuit transfer on 2F position?
@@sasacata well short-circuit is still the most common metal transfer mode used with GMAW. We teach our students in all positions using S/C first before we hit spray or pulse-spray. Although the penetration is low in comparison, its still sticks metal together.
He actually showed a pic of the wire, Er70s-6, which a solid wire.
@@waylonthewelder2733 Also why use flux or metal core when he shows his gas mixture.
For rookiei
Your weld symbol is wrong
Well kind of. I make the students do all four sides of the two joints. Just took a random picture. And my video is just the one joint. Good catch.
@@weldzcool1147 ahh i see
Won`t pass a weld test
Which weld test you referring to?
