Absolutely right about walking into a test booth with a machine dial that tells nothing after driving for hours. Good down and dirty amp test for the extra confidence. Good welding and video quality.
Thanks, Shamy

I’m a retired steam fitter welder and I’ve learned a lot from your videos.I tell the young apprentice to check out your web site. On the tig root I would walk the cup or rather wiggle the cup no wider than the rod and watch it sink in the middle. One other thing,I was doing a lot of aluminum tig welding and had trouble getting it to light off.It turns out aluminum particles were embedded inside the cup and shorted across when I tried to light off. The cure ,throw cup away and put a new one on.

I have seen ammeters that take a reading above one wire ,without breaking into the conducting wire. Seems like it would be a good way to match amperage on different machines

No tips from me just a lot of thanks. I’ve been at this for awhile and it’s a great how to and informative site. I like to use your knowledge at the union hall along with the info I’m given by my union brothers.
You are an asset to the welding trade.
Btw bought me a couple tig fingers and some vids, well worth the money.
Thanks again and God bless.

Not a pro welder, just use for personal and friends, and my enjoyment. Being in a farm/ranch thrashing bee club I get the chance to make engine carts, cast iron repairs, … Etc. I would like to get your thoughts sometime on a problem I continually have when I attempt to weld say a 1″ tube (axel) to a flat plate, thickness is not the issue. I don’t seem to be able to get down into the contact area where the pipe touches the plate. With MIG it is a little better, but I question the quality of the weld. With 6011 stick I end up with burning through the tube/axel at some points. Is there a trick, besides much more practice?
I know I am only learning, but would not have even started without Your and other videos, and yes, I use your TIG finger!
Thanks, Tom, age 69.

I love the “chinese movie dubbing” at the end, hilarious

Ha! Yeah, I know… That one got past me late last night. I just fixed it. Thanks for the heads up. – Jody
