Sheet metal fabrication trick for tack welding using a tig welder. This works. Tack welding with a tig machine does not have to be slow.
By setting the tig welding machine up a certain way, you can tack like a laser welder….so this is like a down and dirty laser welder. Get done quicker, be more competitive, get to welding.
I never get this without some filler rod.
Thought it was MIG [which I burn a hole with every time .
Thanks again for the informative video Jody. I have watched and learned from many of your videos but this video on speed tacking has really changed the game for me when tacking up 19 and 20 gauge sheet metal. Thanks again brother and keep up the great work!
I have been welding for the last 35 years everyday. And worn gloves about 3 times I hate gloves though sometimes I can smell my hands burning and think I should use glove but I get a better quality weld without lol
thanks a lot for that viedeo! it helped a lot to learn how to tack weld!!
I'm in class right not and that trick just saved my butt. Thanks!
Do you Tack without postflow? Gas only in The Second you Tack?
Hello thanks for usefull videos. I have a problem with tacking. I use a inverter DC machine no pedal.. and its a stick weld machine. Can you please upload a video for oldschool DC inverter machine tig tacking.
Who's watching in 2018? I love this channel!
Time machine this is… 🙂
hi Jody my I ask what you opinion on these machines?
Hey Jody have you used the tack weld feature on the everlast welders before?
Thanks for the video. I'm a TIG novice, and I had a quick question. It appeared that you rested the tungsten on the steel surface. I was told by a welding teacher not to do that. Are there certain instances when it's okay? Love your channel.
Separate question: I'm using an Everlast 200DV TIG. Setup is DCEN 100 amps, gas lens, #7 cup 2% Lanthanated. I'm running beads (6") after 4 beads the TIG GUN (25) is extremely hot. I wait about 30 seconds
Thanks Jody after watching this video it made things allot easier! I also got my MagTab's in today and will be trying them out this weekend!!!!
Dude! You should be wearing gloves.
I can't believe I did not even think to set the amperage control on my synchro wave 350 to local to get those hot Tig tacks!! Thanks for your tips. Gonna try it on the old reliable 250HF as well
shit dont need no stinking gloves. some times I forget to put them on in a hurry. my arms and hands take a beating. it comes with the job thanks for making videos.
