I don't weld plastic. After seeing this I've gotta try it. Beautiful work by the way!

Very interesting. You've got a lot of skill there, I know from experience that ain't as easy as it looks. Thanks for posting.

Finally we can built huge pvc ship without metal steel sheet and rivettes... Stealth material 💪🏻

That was incredible. You have some really good skills. Thank you for sharing.

4:50 I believe it broke where it did because the sheet was weakened via indirect heating during the process of you laying the weld. The weld now became the strongest point hence it resisted breaking away there. Looks cool overall and nice weld you did. I wonder what kind of applications this would be useful for. Where load isn't a top concern, favoring a lightweight or cost effective solution (shelving units come to mind immediately) this could be cool. At the very least it looks fun to tinker with.

Im good to be welding some 36" corrugated pipe to a tire hopefully it goes well thank you for the video

[sepistedi]

Very nice indeed! Good movement, no smoke. As a polywelder, I will approve this as a actual weld! 😊

Can you use the same technique when doing polypropylene?

I've welded may years and building a multi-pass fillet weld with plastic is very good, aesthetics don't always mean a sound weld, but you nailed it both ways. what is the plastic welder used, i need one now after seeing how well you used it?

March 2023 👍 I'm going to try this to repair my garbage can - Thanks !

That's actually insane, I fab bridge girders and I always wondered if there was a process to weld plastic/pvc. You might have to cut a cross section to see penetration/toes of the weld. Thank you for Sharing sir.

Nice one mate weld is spot on but did it weaken the upper plate were it broke

The work looks great, and you have a talent for teaching.
Thank you

[kenstone]

Wow my plastic welds don't look anything like that, I guess I need to practice a lot more. Impressive work! 👍

[billyvandervoet]

Is the filler rod a piece of that plastic sheet or did you buy it. Very good weld

[beefcakemonsta]

That's actually impressive, the weld stayed intact even trying to chisel your way thru it. WOW

[mikeschmidt]

Enjoyed your video, can you use this to weld "UMHW" type plastic?

[stephenchamberlain]

great skill and impressive weld strength. may have to have a play at this to fabricate some custom tanks (not the boom boom type).

I'm looking to get a welder. What would you recommend. I plan on repairing kayaks.
