  • Visit my store weldmongerstore.com/ for gas lens kits, tig fingers, DVDs and more.
    This video is about using different tig welding and tig brazing techniques to build a Thor hammer filled with shot to make it a functional dead blow style hammer with bronze striking surfaces.
    I heat tinted the steel and polished the silicon bronze fillets to accent the beveled edges.
    So in this video you will see pulse tig settings for welding with er70s-2 filler rod...and pulse tig settings for tig brazing with silicon bronze filler.

    Jesus that arc shot at 9:35 is just flat out amazing. I mean damn. These videos truly are the gold standard for welding videos. 🙇🏼‍♂️🙇🏼‍♂️🙇🏼‍♂️

    "Don't be afraid to invest in yourself!" Now that's a great motivational quote. It's worked for me over the years.

    Jody...Just made my first purchase from your online store. I apologize for taking so long...but I just purchased my first TIG welder. I have benefited far more from your videos than my small purchase will benefit you. So, I just wanted to offer a sincere "thank you" in a public forum. I have been stick/MIG welding for 30 years...but you have taught me more since following you here than I could have ever learned on my own. Plus, so many of your "small projects" have helped my one-man shop produce so much more than I could have without the tips. Now, time for you to teach me to TIG!
    Thanks, again.

    Well I didn’t really need a TIG finger yet... Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Your videos as well as a couple other RUclipsr‘s have been life savers through this learning to weld adventure and I really appreciate it! I just ordered myself a couple things from your store in appreciation. Win/Win!

      Bob Smith Jody and Bob are some of the best welding resources on RUclips. I was never a fan of Mr. Tig. His personality didn’t seem genuine to me

    Just found your videos a couple of weeks ago and I'm new to TIG welding. I appreciate your teaching style. Your humility, apathy and energy make you a great teacher. Thank you for your smooth, non pretentious delivery. lots of videos on RUclips from people who need to tone it down a bit. I'm just soaking it all in.....thanks a lot.

    Another great video Jody. I have been a machinist for 35 years but just started to weld about a year and a half ago. I am now certified in Structural AWS D1.1 unlimited thickness. Thanks for all the videos. I have learned so much more from you than the welding college taught me. Keep it up and I will keep supporting you through weldmonger.com.

    I really enjoy your videos, and can firmly say I’ve become a better welder because of them! I was doing vertical Mig welding all day today, something I’ve always struggled with, but your videos have improved that, I could hear you all day, saying “keep a short stick out”, and “don’t get crazy with gun angle “ .....
    I have got to get a Tig now...😉👍
    Thanks

    Keep promoting the store. You and your artistry talked me into learning TIG, so I went to...hmm... weldmonger!...for tungsten, TIG fingers, gas lens kit, Stronghands.... You’ve probably done more to educate and to advance welding technique than anyone in history. Glad I could help out a little in return.

  • @ddcd53
    @ddcd53 6 лет назад +2

    Great video. Beautiful hammer. I would almost hate to use a hammer that looked that nice. It looked like art. I really like the way you always talk your way through the video and explain all the things you are doing. It keeps you from getting a load of questions and teaches us a lot about welding and fabricating. Thank you. Dan

    Great video, some of that welding was really good to see, especially with the different settings, I must admit that I was amazed when you said you were 60yrs old, you sure don't look it, you obviously keep in good shape.

  • @kurtfattig9370
    @kurtfattig9370 6 лет назад

    I had an idea about your design... If you were to leave the hole in the handle (instead of plugging it) - you could fill the BB's or lead shot from the handle, and put a piece of dowel (or precision-machined rod) the length of that handle. Or if you put a hollow insert with a cap at the end toward the head of the hammer - you'd still have room for your center punch. Then you'd have no fill cap and the faces of the hammer head would be smooth. You are a phenomenal welder and a great teacher. I really enjoy your videos.

    Hi Jody, I can definitely agree with you on seeing what your welding, i'm a decade older, and have bifocals and guess where that lens change sits, right in your viewing area, so I upgraded to the largest windows auto helmet I could find. It's better but sometimes you tend to do things by feel.
    Cheers Dennis.
