If anyone deserves that million subscriber mark it’s this guy. He’s an invaluable resource to welders of any experience level. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into these videos sharing your years of experience.

The number one tip in this video Jodi is puddle manipulation! If you’re not working the puddle on short circuit mig, you will get cold lap. Can’t stress that enough. Great video.

lol Love the bacon cooking soundbite in the middle of the one weld. Always glad to see new videos. They are great for refreshers.

Another typical Jody video, no time wasting filler, just facts and solid technique. Thanks for the excellent lessons.

I've welding a little over 20 yrs and I gotta say everytime I watch your videos I always learn something New! I even use something of your tips and tricks methods on welding jobs that were hiring for mig welders and Got Hired on the spot! And I still watch your videos cause there's always New things I can still learn from your videos so much Aloha from Hawaii for sharing your knowledge for welder's like me. Mahalo!

I done some welding today and just like usual I thought of you, the arc shots and the tips you've given us over the years. Always flicking back on old videos for information. Absolute quality. Thankyou Jodie

Hello, my respected sir, I am Majid from Iraq... I offer you the greatest thanks befitting your respected standing. I learned a lot from you... When they ask me how I learned this beautiful welder, I tell them from this generous man that I learned everything, and I mean you... and I always pray May God make you in the best condition... I love you, thank you, esteemed sir

Another excellent video. I'm a young 67 and new to welding...mostly vehicle modifications and things around the property. The tips I've learned from your channel are invaluable. I can't thank you enough.

I've been subscribed for years. Congrats on the 1 Million mark! You deserve it. 5:25 actually sounds like bacon frying. Not sorta, but exactly like real bacon frying

Jodie, You're the main reason I have gotten back into the game. Between your videos and podcast I've become reinvigorated and re-started this great hobby. Thanks again and best of luck!!

I used to watch your videos back in 2014 and helped me a lot to sharpened my welding skills... A lot has changed since then. I own my small trucking company and do my own welding at my shop/ truck yard, I decided to come back to your channel and take a look at what has changed.. Your videos do change people's lives. Thanks.

Fantastic buddy, I've been welding 40yrs and always pick up some useful information from you

I have watched your welding videos for a long long time. I have learned a lot from you sharing your advice. I could always weld fairly good but a few years back my welding improved 10 fold with something you had said that anyone can follow. It was when you said about cleaning your metal before welding it. It was the best advice that helped me improve the holding power of a weld. Thank you for all of your tips and advice over the years.

Jody I've been welding off and on for 20 years and have been watching you for at least half that time, particularly in the last 3 years since I really got back into it, but wasn't subscribed yet. What the hell, let's fix that.

Excellent idea to give the welding info/specs before each weld.

I’ve been welding for around 10 years now and I still learn new things from you, thanks for all the awesome videos and knowledge you pass down to us!

Welcome back Jodi - you look good! - we've just been sit'n here shooting the breeze waiting for you. Looking forward to the new content!

good man alex from ards stainless marine in northen ireland love your vids been withing you for years i have been tig welding for 30 years

I had 4 people watching me weld today. My assistant was was going over the the cuts and grinds with a flapdisc. My machine was running like pure garbage, and everyone was wondering why I just wasn't burning it in. Well the fit up wasn't good, the welder was being powered off of a generator that wasn't producing clean power, and the zinc rich paint/primer wasn't removed far enough from the weld zone. Being onsite welding in a unique space we just didn't have all the normal resources at hand initially. Once we got hooked up to consistent power, got the surfaces prepped, and got the fit up sorted the weld was uneventful, and pretty. The majority of a quality weld happens before the arc is struck.

Been watching and learning for a long time. Finally hit the subscribe today. Hopefully you can get something after giving so much. Please everybody, subscribe. This man deserves it!! Thank you Jodi!

Come on everybody lets push Jody over 1 million sub's He has taught a lot of us to weld over the decade or so. Thank You Jody !!! The welding I have learned here has brought me many many hours of enjoyment in welding and several completed projects worth the enjoyment. much appreciated.

Let’s get JODY to a cool Million! ⭐️🙏⭐️ Thank you JODY! Always my “GO TO” Encyclopedia, Teacher, and Mentor!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

well i was here at start to get better in tig....but i have to say after a couple of video you're the man in weldings ...

This channel taught me how to weld and I’m still learning from it now 2 years later

You’ve helped a lot during school, hope you get that 1M subs

Bump this dude over the million mark! Jody is an amazing source of information!

Thank you so much! About to stitch my truck bumper together out of 3/16 and this couldnt have come at a better time. Will be practicing with endless coupons to finess this project.

Here's to a soon to be Million subscribers Sir Jodie! I know i ain't saying anything different from what many of these folks already have, but thank you for doing what you do. I was in welding school for 2 years doing a 4 hour class a week to get my certs and sometimes, even though i had an amazing instructor, that just wasn't enough guidance. Thanks to the time you took to teach us, i'm AWS certified in stick, mig, flux cored, tig, 6g tig and stick, and now i'm getting my NAVSEA certs for naval vessels. Keep on burning!

Been watching you for years. Been subscribed a long time. Proud to be part of helping you reach that Million. You deserve it. Your videos alone have taught me so much

I always learn something that will improve my welding skills when I watch your videos.

I want to thank you. I went out and got me the hobart handler. I been learning to weld from your videos. Your very smart and have alot of knowledge. Every time I'm about to weld I watch your videos and it helps me alot with my work.

Some great arc shots there. Much appreciation from UK🇬🇧

We watch you all the time at school when we're in the class you're really helpful man thank you.

Man I love these mig videos. If you we're to put together a " cheat sheet " with metal type, thickness, type of joint, voltage and wire speed I'd buy one. Thanks for the tips.

Jody my bro, I cannot begin to describe how helpful your channel has been for me. I speak for all welders when I say you’re a treasure to the welding community. Keep up the good work, you deserve 1Mil subscribers. 💪🏻💪🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Great puddle filming most videos don't show! Tip stay ahead is one tip I haven't heard before. Push 305 ipm .025 18v on 16 ga, Pull 330 ipm .030 19v on 11 ga, Pull 195 ipm .035 18.6v on 3/16 ga, Fast Pull 335 ipm .035 21v on 1/4 ga, Fast Pull 342 ipm .035 19.5v on 3/16 welding 1/4 ga,

Best welding video's on the you tube, bar none!! I would not be the welder I am today without your input, Jody! Thank you for what you have given me and others.

You will get to a million in no time bud! We all love your videos ! Godbless

Can’t wait for you to get to a million you deserve it!

I wish I could hit that “Like” button to get you to a Million subscribers, Jody! You deserve the recognition! Thanks for the “rolling your cylinder” trick! I have a few mixed gas cylinders that I haven’t used in years… I’ll definitely roll them before using them again! Thanks for all your highly informative knowledge! 👍

Keep the content flowing please. Really appreciate you sharing your expertise.

Been watching your videos forever, you got my subscription! Thank you.

Best welding channel, great original style and content, crossing my fingers you get there

Nice to see you back. Been a while. Very informative. Thanks!

I had an old argon cylinder on my TIG and was having all sorts of shielding problems. Dad said I should roll it across the shop floor and hook it back up before giving up and getting a new cylinder. You better believe it worked and I had no trouble after that until the cylinder was empty.

WOW! I've been watching your videos for years, and have learned a ton :) I'm excited you are almost at 1 million subs! Best welding teacher on YT (Bob is a close second!!!) lol

I really appreciate that there are people out there like you in the world who are passing on your skills and teaching the world. I'm 59 and I'm a novice welder and I really appreciate all the tips that you helped me utilize & learn.

Damn Jodie, I could have sworn I subscribed years ago, but it showed me unsubscribed.. corrected the error of my ways! Hit that million, man, you deserve it more than most out here!

Hey Jodi! Many many thanks for the tips and tricks, lessons, you was the inspiration to start a welding career. Love all of your videos. Wish you the best, and greetings from Slovakia!

Congrats Jody on closing in on the 1 M subs...you put in all the hard work over the years in your superior videos!💯💯✅✅✅

Watching you from South Africa. Keep up the good work!

5:25 Loved the bacon sizzling sound edit 😂😂

Nice to see you again dear teacher.

I am in a habit of always grinding mill scale, but I didn't realize it was such a problem for short circuit MIG. This channel is invaluable for hobbyists.

That random audio change to crackling bacon was so unexpected mid weld 5:19 . I thought I was tripping for a second

Thanks for all you do for the welding community, your videos are a go to when I have issues🤗😎😎🤗

I recommend this channel to others. Your comparisons, explanations and visuals are great. Thanks!

As always, some of the best arc shots available. Good luck on a million Jodi.

Been a subscriber and spread your gospel to all new welders. You have helped me and many of us to become better welders

Who else caught the dubbed in sound of bacon frying in a pan at 5:27? Nice touch Jody

MIG welder in my area where I work is not used a lot , i use TIG 99% of the time and MIG welder has an argon mix tank that sits in one spot forever. The MIG is usually used for the wire feeder , using it as cold feed for the TIG and only gets hooked up occasionally for a little MIG welding. Next time I'm going to weld something really important with the MIG I'm going to remember and consider laying the tank on the floor and mix it up a bit.

Nice Tutorial helps me to remember good old fashioned proper Welds with Mig Machines. Thank You

These videos are by far the best welding videos out there. Thank you and I hope u hit a million!

It's always great when you put out videos Jodi all the good tips and tricks that you give it's what encourage me to teach myself how to TIG weld. Speaking of TIG welding really really like to see you kick it old school and put four tig welders together and run them against each other and see how they all perform from the 2022 lineup of welders available out there today I know you did it whatever last Lincoln Miller I can't remember the other one back in 2015. It'd be kind of cool to see you pick up a primeweld one of the newer Everlast 325 EXT millermatic 220 and in Eastwood tig 200 I think that would be a great running score to see what's what out there on the market. Or even just get a sub $1,000 welders and put them all together.

I've been watching your videos for years, and I learn something new every time!

Jody you always go above and beyond! I graduated welding school in 1994 and I learn something from every video! Thanks for all you do. Stay safe and God bless

Thank you for the excellent videos. I've been mig welding on pipe (fire protection piping) for 30 plus years. I've used some of your techniques at work. Thank you again sir.

I subscribed so I hope you get 1,000,000 subscribers. Welding tip : Z's side to side are better than U's because going back over where you have already gone in the U shape as you did at the beginning of the video as compared to the Z side to side that doesn't go back over where you have already been lessens if not totally eliminates the possibility of cold lap in the weld bead. Randall M. Rueff - Hobart Institute of Welding Technology (Class of 1992-93). Good day & God Bless...

You’re an amazing teacher Jody, learned just about everything I know about welding from you.

Love these videos and especially when I’ve just started a college night welding course. I learned more here in this video than 3 nights so far 😬

I honestly appreciate you sharing your skills. I got my 1st mig and even got a Tig to learn because seeing them Tig skills you have gave me motivation to learn it. Thank you

Always fantastic information! Congrats on getting close to a million.

Congrats on a million subscribers. You’ve taught me a lot

You got a hand for sure. I've been welding off and on since I'm 19. I used to be able to lay dime's with a mig welder. I'm a bit out of practice and watching your videos is going to help me immensely! Thank you!

Been a suscriber d'or allmost 10 years. Cant count all toi have tranches me. Thanks ans congratulation.

U the man. Keep teaching. Always the favorite

New work space . Exciting stuff .

I fabricate for my own needs and occasionally for friends sometimes fairly elaborate projects. My problem is that it's always 2 to 3 years in between welding tasks and my skills do not stay sharp so I always return here just to "grease the wheels" so to speak and soon have my technique back. Always happy to subscribe to help channels like this one that do so much to help us diy'rs. Cheers

Excellent video, clear, easy to understand advice for an amateur welder. Thanks!

Great effort including the metallurgical examination too. Well done!

Very clear and direct, and to the point. Excellent instructor.

Love the videos man! Anytime I need to see something for reference or help when welding I check here. Cant wait to see more videos soon!

I am using your trick and tips while welding. Thank you for teaching me!

Your an awesome teacher! Right to the point, thanks for the tips 👍

Can’t wait for the next 75 videos! Long time subscriber

My boss growls at me when I grind millscale off 🤣. Cheers Jody, Still learning from you all these years later. You took me through TIG early in my career, 8 years later I've had to learn MIG, I find myself revisiting your old videos which are now more applicable to me - and this one was great - as usual. Cheers.

I’m just learning to use MIG and these are really helpful. Good luck to a million.

Excellent work Jody! Love the content!

You totally deserve 1M subs. I’ve learnt so much from you! Thank you!

Excellent video thanks Jody

An excellent training video. One of the best I have seen.

Jody Thanks Brother👍🏼 It’s really good to know regarding stirring the C25 Cyl especially for some of us hobbiests that may only light up the old MIG machine every so often or just longer durations between projects. Cylinder Safety is one of the most important things in welding processes due to the types and mixtures of different gases under extreme pressure. Thanks again and be safe 😎

Great video Jodi. Your TIG videos are great, but I only have a MIG welder. I always get a little more excited when I see MIG content. Good look with the 1 million goal!

you have a great hand man 👍your tips are very useful.

First time seeing your channel. A wealth of information in here for sure! Instant subscriber here!

Thanks for all the tips and advice. Good luck with the 1 million subs. Take care 👍

Been watching for a while. Love the videos. Good luck on the 1M!
