Thank you for having a camera angle that really shows the puddle and how you're using the stick around and in it. Definitely helps me see it here in a video so I can try and look for something similar when I do my own welds. Fitting up pipe like this for a weld takes a while and it's hard sometimes to feel like you're getting enough welding in when you spend so much time cutting and grinding pipe.

Love your videos can't stop watching and I'm just a hobbyist welder.

Good old Bob To round out my day! Thank you sir for your excellent videos and teaching skills

[kenbrownlee]

Fascinating how you know that two different size rods can run the same amperage you have an amazing wealth of knowledge Bob love the videos keep up the great work

[adventureloop]

Awesome tutorial Bob, keep up the good work🤠👍🏽

[liammiller]

I love the tips. I will try to practice this with my everlast stick welder.

Why do you want to have a wider gap for uphill? Thanks for your videos, I'm a fan of all of them!
I have a request, if y'all made a video explaining why you choose certain gaps given different circumstances that would be the bees knees. Variables such as size of rod, uphill or downhill, process and other things that would affect the gap you choose. That would be really helpful to me and I'm sure many others.

Master you are great, thanks for your videos

[patrickdamico]

Beautiful cap, keep it up with these uphill pipe welding videos very informative! Thanks brother

[Kevin.L_]

Bob and pipe. Had to be another good lesson.

I was having to pool cue my rod a lot on a job I was doing and started warping my glove fingers. Couldn't find anything but masking tape. Wrapped 2 fingers and it worked great! The rod isn't hot enough to burn the tape, and my glove stays straight. Now I have masking tape on 2 fingers of every left glove I have.

How many amps are you running at? I know you said you were running the 7018 and 6010 at the same amperage but I didn’t hear you say the actual amperage lol

[patrioted]

It looked like you were about to lose your metal on that stringer pass. Close! Nice job.

[pieostas]

спасибо дяденька из америки.у вас интересные видео.будьте здоровы.

[DavidTheCarpenter]

If I welded 1/10 as much as I watched I might be better, eh? Kudos's to your camera work. That was the best and most informative shot of an arc's leading edge and puddle I have seen yet.

This kind of reminds me of running fire watch for tge shipyard welders at pearl harbor welding steam line. They would tig tge first two passes then fill with stick, no hrinding and it was smooth.

Bob if you wish you can clean your helmet shield with an aluminum polish, I have used a product called Mothers Aluminum Polish
it works great just wipe some on then wipe off with soft cloth and it is back clear/clean again.

[harleyjune]

thanks in advance - - same amps.. 90ish? on the hot side for sch80?

[albertosaucedo]

Can you do a video on how to do a bevel

[bsideadventures]

Like a true welder. Never buff the bead unless they tell you too. Love ya bob
