TIG Welding Root Pass Mistakes – What Beginners Get Wrong!
TIG welding beginner root mistakes. Tig welding is the most complex form of welding to learn for various reasons. TIG welding is slow and takes time to get used to as a beginner. A TIG welder is required to feed the filler wire and control the variable amperage while maintaining a steady hand at the welding torch

My videos are recorded at working sites in various locations and welding positions.

When you weld, it seems so smooth and easy, while we just got back to reality🤪..seeing how it actually is, when someone else is welding! The struggle is real my man! 🤦🏽‍♂️😂. That’s how it is for most of us. Thank you for your inputs and trying to make better tig welders out of all of us! 👍🏽

Great video I struggle most with how much wire to feed working on my finger dexterity for feeding rod. Good in freehand can’t walk the cup for jack though

[morgostas]

I was gonna suggest in my previous comments that you could also be welding instructor.
Cause you are pointing the important stuff of the process: Coordination, rod feeding angle, high and low spots
Thanks again
for all this input. To me it was supper helpfull.

Odlican video buraz, super to pojasnjavas, ko profesor si 😜. Htio sam te pitat, posto vidim da bolesno varis tig, a imam frenda koji isto rastura s tigom al samo to vari i radi u Njemackoj. On mi reko da je prvo i naucio tig…jesi li ti odma poceo s tigom varit ili si prvo naucio ove druge tehnike, pa onda ganjo tig? Ja zelim taj tig usavrsit, al nisam bas nesto, mozda sam prestar sad, 35 godina mi je, sta ti mislis? Vario sve drugo, al tig🤦🏻‍♂️

Amazing videos, burn to learn haha! Im having trouble with the torch inclination, do you wanna be forward 15°-20° ?

I KNOW THIS GUY IS RELATIVELY NEW, BUT HIS GLOVES ARE WAY TOO DAMN HUGE AND HE IS RUNNING THE ROD THROUGH A FOUR FINGER DEATH LOCK, NO WAY HE CAN MANIPULATE IT.. HE STILL NEEDS TO WORK ON HIS TORCH SKILLS AS HE IS NOT GETTING MUCH PUDDLE CONTROL, AND HIS TIGHT GRIP ON THE TORCH IS ALSO HURTING.. I USE INSULATED TIG GLOVES, THEY ARE SMALLER, MORE FLEXABLE THAN STICK/MMA GLOVES, AND ALLOW YOU TO CONTROL THE ROD EASIER WHILE NOT BURNING YOURSELF ON THE PIPE..

[gordonyoung]

When you say stretch the puddle, are you referring to keeping jt connected but not shoving it in there, hence elongating it and or stretching it. Or do you mean stretch the puddle side to side on the bevel

[miguelmariscal]

Is it too much filler wire ? Also he is not waiting to create good weld pool

[chrisplayz]

So if the rod and the tungsten are pointing towards each other that's when you melt too much rod and get grapes? The tungsten and rod should be closer to 90 degrees? 😊

hello i have some problems overhead on the pipe It always gets sucked back the weld how should i do please do a video on overhead on 168 cm pipe thank u

[nikitasidorenko]

What about amps u use on this type of pipe? Bottom or top, differs?

[jimwright]

In the UK pipefitters, don't tack butts up, only the welders do that, when happy with the fit up.

[joanpinero-ivgv]

I struggle creating the bridge to start a rootpass :(

[timotejj]

When im doing lay wire, wire is burning so Quick and i cant control it, why is that?

[cobraten]

he said "nothing fancy"😂😂, while he knows that he can weld while hes aslepp😂brag

[micmike]

Sorry but, isn't his gap a pinch bigger than it needs to be?
