Thanks Abe, I honestly think I tweaked my shoulder from forcing the cup into the groove LOL, the slide and pick up technique is great.

It's about this time each week I watch your videos, grab my welder and head for the The Wife pulls me up short, 🤣🤣🤣.
Brilliant work!!

Should make videos on how to tack beveled plates with tig. Maybe it is not very important to show that step but some have a very hard time trying to learn to do that.

[higiniosanchez]

[donnieji]

Great video with a humble and cool dude.

[scottysutherland]

13:00 did he say, 100 amps on the root, then 180(?) amps on the hot pass? That seems like an incredibly large jump..

Great Job. Awesome talent and thank you for sharing. This would be great practice to break into pipe welding for sure.

[tommyreice]

Love how you explain the process and the small details you throw in but would love it if you started using more welding footage with a better camera to see your beads being made.

I learn more from these videos than I do at school. God bless I can’t wait to get off of the east coast ✈️
