Trouble Shooting a Downhill Weld-Welding Methods.

What you need to know about how to control your weld puddle, heat or amps to help put a downhill welding root in. Little welding tips and tricks about controlling finger nail with 6010 serious downhill rod. Also how to handle a tight and wide fit. Heck we even through in some High low just to make it even more fun. I am a firm believer in once you have the welding fundamentals down you need to learn how to number one fix your weld and number 2 how to weld things that are not fit correctly. Hope you enjoy and hope your able to pick up on a few things. Be blessed

Have been welding for 37 years, everything under the sun but NEVER down hill. Been running this on 6in. for the last 2 weeks. Much respect to your skills, I teach welding and thanks for a great down to earth smack down. I tip my hat to you. Mine looks nothing like

Great info on fighting high low and fingernails. Took me a while to learn how to manipulate the rod to counter that. Thanks for the video.

[greggschultz]

You nailed this one. Too many guys don't practice misfits and they need to as you will run into them more often than you think. Great information man!

[mandylad]

Jake, you the man. Keep doing what you do.

Good work, had to show this to a friend. He liked it as well.

learning to weld with one hand is the best advice that you can give to anyone, I have one hand one the remote and one on the stinger at all times . If that red half moon gets close and catches up with the rod crank it up . light up with 5/32 on top then switch to 1/8 on the tight bottom .

Man I know you’re busy with life, we miss your vids brother! I hope everything’s going good!!!!

[FISHBREATHH]

Ive always ran a metabo blade through the jam up spots of the pipe.
Thats a perfect gap for me personally is a metabo gap. Whatever that comes out to be .045

[dalejacaway]

Awesome video man thanks if you do another one I wouldn't mind seeing more of the finished weld after you're done welding and explain how you controlling it and why the world sitting the way it is cuz sometimes I think I'm running just fine and then my weld doesn't sit but I'm not sure at what part I screwed up

[Blue_Collar_Hunter]

Great video! Alot of good info again. Keep it up brother.

[samjones]

Jake, Love your work mate and thanks for the instruction and help your putting out there.
You gotta stay healthy though, check the new guidance from the UK Health and Safety Executive on mild steel welding fume now classified as carcinogenic.
It's advised RPE (air fed hoods) is used even outdoors to protect the welder and anyone in the area. Burn hot and stay safe brother...

Hey Jacob I have been looking on the tube on how to weld 6010 all the way out for chill water I'm having trouble with it maybe you can show some of your experience with this process it would be greatly appreciated by the way good videoes

[dixiemechanical]

What settings are used on the camera to focus better on the weld? Most of the time it would appear over exposed and too harsh on camera, so great shots of the welds!

[mauriciosaldana]

Jacob it's happened to me before wider on one side and tide on the other . Sometimes I just rotate my wrist a little it'll burn that fingernail off with some pressure also.

If only someone made a stinger holder that has a slide knob, to control the amps as your welding, like a foot pedal does in TIG welding.
