Remove welds with an Arc Air

How to remove welds or gouge steel for welding with an Arc-Air

[Greenmachine]

I love the vicegrip clamp! Pure gold! Thanks!

Just used this today on my work apprenticeship. Really cool stuff. I was gouging thick metal “doors” which hold the net of a fish dragger open. When they drag along the bottom of he ocean, they wear slowly and Need to be cut off every once in a while. The steel is about half an inch thick, so it take a decent amount to gouge. Really cool stuff I recommend any welder tries it at least once.

I'm NOT a trucker. But I like this tutorial.
Very helpful. Thanks for making it !!!!

Your welder was built in Canada, great video, thanks for the demonstration.

I was going back and forth wondering if I can hook an arcair to my stick welder and compressor and somehow make it work. Thanks for the vid

That's a cool tool Gordon, thanks for sharing that! Also the idea of a Vise Grip grounding clamp is pretty ingenious.

That's pretty fascinating. I've not heard of this before. I knew little about the various things with welding. Sure does a good job! Well worth watching.

Used this in an old main Dept I used to be in. It definitely has it’s place but those sparks can be dangerous if you don’t keep an eye on them. Great video. Thanks for sharing🙏🏼.

That’s a neat tool. I bet it works good in tight spaces you can’t get a grinder in. Thanks for the video

Very cool! Thanks for taking the time to make this video - now I want one!

Does the weld filler burn more easily than the plate itself? I'm vey impressed, sir!nn Many thanks for the edeucation.

With zip disks being cheap its easy to cut welds with them, we have an air arc at work rarely gets used, never had one in the families welding shop, washing out old welds with a torch was a common practice. Looks like your old trailer has seen some heavy loads in its day with stress cracks. Your old Ideal arc Lincoln welder were good 220 volt welding machines in their day, fairly smooth, decent duty cycle on them.

Thanks for the upload young man! I wasn't aware of such technology but I am now. I have Oxy Propane gear and gouging rods at home but it never crossed my mind about Air Arc.

[miltgray]

if you put a welding lens over your camera, it will be able to record what you did, i use these almost everyday at work with 1/2" rods

This commonly used to burn out the track pins on dozers and excavators.

[greggb]

Interesting, never knew something like that existed.
Thank you sir.

That’s Really Neat Gordon It’s The 1St Time I’ve Seen One of These Arc Aires I’ve Used a Plasma Cutter But Never Knew These Existed 😯😯😲 Thanks For Showing Me Something Completely New 😀😀😀

Cool video, I really don’t see these things around very often.

Where in the world are you gonna use a trailer with that many frame patches without getting caught. Glad you didn't show us what the neck looks like if the back is ate out that bad. Looking forward to the cutting video when your scraping the whole trailer
