Have you ever wondered if you could TIG weld with a MIG torch? Well, wonder no more because we visited Adam Streich and he showed us how. We don't recommend trying this at home but wanted to try it for science!

When working on your pad welding with MIG, make sure you are tying in each bead toe to crown and try and follow @arcjunkiespodcast 's advice to make every weld better than your last.

Make sure if you want the best gas mix for your oxyfuel torch you are twisting your hoses together......... #AprilFools #oxyfuel #victor #esab #welding #welddotcom

Ian Johnson from Big Tire Garage showed us this trick on our visit to his shop. When cutting with Oxy-Fuel if you go too slow, the metal will weld itself back together. With the right tip and gas pressure, you can travel at a decent speed and end up with a cleaner cut.

If you are planning on walking the cup when putting in your root pass with GTAW, you want to make sure that you have enough of a stickout to reach the edges of your bevels but not too much that you will have to lean back melting away your filler wire.

What happens when you take a process from the 1800's and mix it with a machine from 2024? Find out today at 3:30 EST when Adam Streich shows us Twin Carbon Arc Welding on YouTube https://youtu.be/PKCerD94KMs #carbonarcwelding #twincarbonarcwelding #welding #welder #oldschool #welddotcom

Make sure you are using the right tip for the type of gas you have and the thickness of your material to get the best cut you can. Happy Easter from all of us at Weld.com! #oxyfuel #cutting #torchcutting #torchtips #welding #welddotcom

When you are running beads on a plate with any process, what you want to focus on is making sure you are not leaving valleys in between your welds and tying in toe to crown on each pass. When you leave valleys especially when moving to your caps it can lead to underfill.

Here is a close-up of @arcjunkiespodcast putting in a root pass on an AWS D1.1 SMAW 3G Qualification Test with a backing strap. The big thing you want to watch when putting in this pass is the puddle wash over the bevel edge to make sure you are getting fusion on both plates.

Learning to weld dissimilar metals together can be super helpful when making sculptures. Tune in today at 3:30 PM EST as @Austin shows Codie Aljets how to weld all kinds of different dissimilar metals together with TIG using the ESAB Rebel 205ic https://youtu.be/sb19GhBFjhk #tig #tigwelding #disimilarmetals #gtaw #bronze #stainlesssteel #brass #welding #esab #welddotcom

On our trip up to 3M with Nate Bowman we learned how normal abrasives will produce grinding dust that you see floating in the air and covering all the equipment in your shop. When using the Cubitron 3 from 3M the minerals that are embedded in the fiber disc cut away the material leaving you with swarf which is heaver and clumps together.

Make sure to clean your welds between each pass and you can do that with a wire brush or a "Jimmy" wheel as @Austin calls it.

Have you ever seen someone walk the nozzle before? @Austin got the chance with Adam Streich, who helped us answer the question of "Can you TIG weld with a MIG welder?"

Remember to be very careful when welding in wet conditions, and if it is cold it is best to preheat your metal. He @@Austin puts in a root pass to help get this snow cat back out on the slopes.

When you run out of 75/25 gas blend when MIG welding it might be tempting to grab a tank of argon and keep welding. This will result in brittle welds that lack penetration. The CO2 helps your weld puddle flow by transferring the heat. If you want to see what it looks like MIG welding with 100% argon check out this video https://youtu.be/q53KBHDY-pQ 🎵 @Beaudidit #welding #co2 #gasblend #mig #tig #migwelding #tigwelding #lincolnelectric #welddotcom #beaujames

What a wild ride this past week. Huge shout out to @codiealjetsart for making magic happen and stay tuned for a wild adventure. #welding #adventure #snowcat #snowrepair #welder #welddotcom

If your test calls for stringers to cap your 3G plate like in this D 1.1 example, you want that first cap to tie into the plate but have a decent amount of weld to tie into on your next pass to prevent getting undercut on your last pass.

When stick welding with a 3/4" Cor-Met F25 electrode at 1000 AMPS, a massive puddle is formed. This electrode is suitable for repairing and building hammer dies, die shanks, columns, rams, and sow blocks.

When it comes to hardfacing it doesn't matter what process you are using, only that you are using the right filler metal. Doing a spark test is a way better way of finding out your base metal over licking it.
