@rcfreak2493 if you go strictly by the math, with the flowmeter set at 12 cfh the tank would last about 10 hours of constant welding depending on how much postflow gas was used after the arc. ... not exact due to the surge at the start, but its close enough for figuring the cost of tig welding.

Hope your getting something in return for these videos. They're very well done and a great help. I'm sure someone out there could find a criticism, but for someone brand new or fairly new they sure instill confidence and prompt you to start trying/learning which is the biggest step. Your speaking in plain terms that people can learn from. Too many people try to analyze to whole damn subject before they even touch it for the first time. Especially TIG welding. A lot of people still talk about it like its magic and get up on a high horse with the technical terms and the dollar figures for equipment.

Hey Man, I guess you had comments disabled on your previous video about the TIG finger. FWIW, I see no problem with promoting it here. It is an awesome invention and I hope you have the patent for it or that it is on it's way. I came here because of a comment from Tom Lipton on his channel. I am watching your back-log in earnest to get an overview of the welding processes and finally get my first machine. I am a mechanical engineer (not a PhD, what a relief) my career didn't take me into working with my hands, but it was a good career. But I grew up building and fixing things. Now in my later years, I have a desire to get back to working with my hands. I just ordered a TIG finger. Aside from a few rusty old welding rods that came with my first house (left in the garage by the previous owner who had passed away) the TIG finger is the first piece of welding equipment I have obtained toward my semi-retirement repair and fabrication activities. Love the videos, Best Regards, Rich

I 100% agree with your take on 1 or so seconds per pulse or 30pps and above. It's not an aid to beginners and is really an advanced technique that will screw up a newbee. Another way to make it more 'tirck' is to have a fast pulse rate AND pulse the pedal.

Leaving the wire in the puddle (around 3:15)... is it feasible to lay the filler wire in the joint angle then just use the pulse feature to melt it in place or would that not leave enough filler in place? It's difficult to see if you are still feeding wire into the puddle or just leaving it static and melting it as you move the torch.

Unrelated to Pulse when you weld each side is it better to go part way around the corner before stopping? It would seem stopping at the corners then restarting the next side could create a weak spot in the weld. Your thoughts?
@pushya100812 жыл бұрын
The way you introduced this video I thought you were going to connect the pulse rate to the types of metals you could weld, but you didn't. The video leaves me with the impression that the pulse rate you selected was pretty much a matter of your personal preference or choice, but I don't really believe that. Is that true?

I wonder one thing. Pulsing in the DC mode has a high current and a background current which gives an average of current between high and low current setting. But how about AC when the balance only goes between negative and positive, then the current on the readout is more accurate right? So for instance, if I weld on ac mode and some chart says I have to go for 120 amps, then I just set the readout on 120 right? And If I were to weld DC with a chart value of 120 amps and chose to use pulsing with a low background current, like your 33%, then I have to crank up to maybe 170 (well, more then 120 to higher the average against the recommended 120A)? And last, and most important question for me, in AC mode, I know I can set my balance which vary cleaning, and also frequenzie which alters how often to switch phase, BUT as in the DC mode with background current and that type of mode with pulsing, will turning on those knobs affect the AC mode welding too? Or is it just balance, amps and pulsing, those three things that is relevant in AC, so no background current and such? Phew, that was hard to explain, I'm a swed. =) Btw you could maybe do a video on that too, that explains the very difference between AC and DC pulsation settings.

When you are using a foot pedal, doesn't that override the max and minimum amperage settings? I can set the "peak Amps" to 125, but the base amps stay at 5 and you can't change it when the pedal is plugged in. this is on a Razoerweld 200 acdc. Are the base amps dictated by the position of the foot switch after the initial "Click on" and up ramp motion once the pulse starts to "pulsate"??

Seems that the higher the pulse rate, the more controlled or narrow the weld run is managed - doesn't bleed to the edge /etc, but structurally speaking does the higher or lower pulse rate affect the strength of the weld assuming identical materials? Has that ever been tested?
