Tag: tig welding steel (page 1 of 5)
This is some serious gravy work.
I have a lot of rounds parts to weld for a customer.
Any time I get round parts to weld, I prefer to use my turntable.
For this video, I am using an AHP alphatig 200x tig welder.
I bought my turntable off ebay several years ago and it is part of a welding lathe setup.
for this video, I am only using the positioner portion of the lathe but in future segments, i will set up the whole system with a tail stock and torch holder.
Parts used for tooling often require a black oxide finish.
After these parts were tig welded, they were bead blasted, and then coated with black oxide.
That begins with a boiling degreaser, then rinse water, then black oxide coating, then rinse again, and then a penetrating oil followed by an oven bake.
Going over the basics of hooking up a scratch start TIG to a DC stick welder.
While tack welding some hot rolled steel test plates, I experimented with 2 different tig welding rods.
