His videos have taught me more than my instructor. 1 teacher for 30 students on different welding lvls so I’m getting the basics from Weld tube. Thanks and keep up the content

Just discovered you. Love you say Ladies and Gentlemen. I am a woman and don't hear guys acknowledge us that often on "how to do it" videos. They don't get what you get. Women watch cool videos like yours too. Also love your teaching. You are clear thinking, straight talking and obviously, you care that we learn. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

“If you can’t see where you’re going, you’re going to leave yourself behind.” Why was that so deep? lol. I’m definitely becoming a welder now ❤️😭 I love that

I had my son watch your videos and learn from what you do he went from subpar "D" grade in high school welding class to "A" grade level in just a few weeks he had been doing this for almost the whole year and in two weeks went to the top passed in the top two, before your videos he would have passed with a "D" grade, Thanks man your tips made all the difference.

I'm working on getting that same consistency, and that peel is gorgeous.

Great tips. Im just staring out. Your tips are clear and very helpful. I was having a lot of trouble seeing ahead of the weld. I wasn't moving with the weld. Looking forward to more practice now that I know what I was doing wrong. 👍

i remember when i first started learning stick with 6010 i was always sticking the rod or long arcing .. could not get the feed right because i was trying to focus on all variables.. arc length angle travel speed, weave / pattern... and it was too much.. so i bought an old wirefeed and practiced the other variables until they became second nature, didnt have to worry about feeding the filler... then i went back to stick to work on feeding the rod and to my surprise it just clicked... i guess i did it backwards lol.

When I weld, which isn’t often, it looked bad. After watching your video, within 5 minutes I was laying beads. You’re a good teacher. Thanks

In learning to weld from YouTube, once I can throw a good consistent bead and I know more about metallurgy I’m gonna go test out and get my certs.

Excellent teacher. Explains better than most

Lock your knees for blood flow is definitely a good tip I just learned from this video. Love welding couldn’t figure out why I sway when I’m in my zone. Thanks for sharing

[andrewjenkins]

Thank you. I been wire welding for years and never really got the hang of stick. My company changed my welder and it was nice just to watch this quick video and translate it to my welds

[jacktrades]

Thank you for not showing us "tricks". Extremely helpful videos and straight to the point. Subbed, liked, goddammit saved!

Stick welding frustrating the hell out of me today

[DylanFleming]

So, I'm just learning now, borrowing an inverter and just tackling a project for myself, I've come to youtube alot for stuff like this, I am a tradesman but i love to learn and try different things.
I have easily watched a couple hours worth of welding videos, electrodes, amps, ac / dc and ofc running beads.
Your videos just settled all my anxiety about getting clean welds on my gate, 10/10 my man, great video and very easy to understand you. camera shots showing angle are perfect.

So far this has been the most informative video I just started today and I’m 14 so thank you

[swapnil]

Thanks a ton for the details bro. Super super helpful this one for a total beginner. Much appreciated!

I have to lay a straight bead for a 1g test. I am 62 years old. You taught me to lean on something - anything. I think the view from the helmet probably matters a lot. My Yeswelder helmet has been fine until I had to see the edges of the bevels working on this 1G test. I cradled my right hand using my left hand and lowered my left arm as you do. Thought I was going straight, but when I lifted my helmet, I welded over the edge. A really nice weld, thanks to your stick videos, but over the edge. I am going to get a helmet that provides a better view.
