Great video , and like how you showing that your welding , and giving info also putting the weld close up Good point on body positioning like that also Not like other video where people just talking about I m a welder , and blah blah blah never show them welding when they talk about I'm out here on the job welding etc . In less you watching videos from a tech school Maybe there is video out there , but I haven't found one I like your. Your is 💯 , and I'll keeping coming back to learn more

Guys are talking about his energy and stuff. That’s a man that loves what he does!! Talk to anyone that enjoys what they do and the passion comes out! Keep it up man!!

I've been retired for 6 years but I still like to strike an arc every day. Gotta weld something. Thanks for taking the time. I worked for a weld professor who would run you out of his shop for welding down hand, but I have found if you know how to handle a stinger you can weld anything any position. Keep on doing what you're doing.

In HS there was this kid... this kid did dimes, PERFECT dimes and sometimes he didn't wore the helmet and did perfect welds. His dad taught him how to weld at 5. and he was really humble. Nice btw

One of the few who excels only by his talent, it is rare nowadays. Respect !!

I really miss welding. I actually learned as an apprentice and later certified, on the Alaskan pipeline many years ago. The money helped me finish college. Crap I have no idea how I got this old... Nice to see someone else that just loves to weld. Thanks for posting.

I'm old experience (40 years) with a piece of paper from Hobart.....Very much enjoyed this young man's skill level and excitement....Your also a great instructor....Keep up the good work

That's a beautiful weld. I couldn't believe when I first discovered welding that you could join two bits of metal together to it looked like they'd never been apart. I suddenly realized that with a welder and angle grinder you could make ANYTHING! As an ear surgeon though I'm a bit worried that you don't wear hearing protection. All welders wear eye protection, and ears are no less precious!

Thanks for the video. I'm a novice welder, and am always looking to learn more. I really appreciate your use of the grinder between passes. I've been told by some that if you need a grinder, you aren't a welder, but I see that the grinder is a tool to be used to improve the final product. Thanks for posting!

Im teaching a friend how to weld, cant wait to show him this video tomorrow, I haven't made it out to the pipeline just yet - still a single hand welder, but soon enough. Props brother and thank you.

you sir will be hated by plenty of lead welders on the other note have shown more information than what I've "learned" in welding school thx for sharing

FRICKIN DIMES! That ladies and gents is an ARTIST.

Love your positive attitude Man. Welded for years myself until I retired, loved it every day. Once the Hood goes down, your the Boss. Was always satisfying to Stand back and admire what you created. Keep up the good work and that positive attitude.

Just graduated welding school Time to start my life . I was born in nor cal .a northern Hispanic .. I was headed no place fast I feel like welding save my life.. #blessed

Man am I impressed by the passion this guy has for his trade. Thanks for the informative video!

I'm 37, My Dad Works for US Pipe welding up molds for pipe. I have a small 120 stick.....You just taught Me a ton on why I can't keep a bead traveling...Im teaching myself the start. Im actually boxing in my shed right now to be able to fabricate all types of.....buggies. I Appreciate it Man. GOD LOVE Man!!

Now there's a habit that just won't go away. Every time you strikes an arc, I blink and look off to the side. Well presented and thanks sharing.

Really dig your passion for your trade bro, I can hear your honesty through your teaching, really great things you're doing for the rest of the public by sharing top notch tips and advise. Peace bro.

I love how hes in love with his job I love how positive and professional he is

I was a welder for 45years, the videos are a hoot. I can smell the burning flux from the sticks. Wally is the Man, Rock On or should I say Burn On.

That is awesome instruction of great fundamental knowledge. I can see the pointers you made really helping a lot of people. Also very slick weld on small diameter fixed position work! Great energy and passion I am a grumpy old weldor. It is nice to see a young man with your level of skill that is not arrogant.

Ive been following you on the gram for years, I love how inspiring you are. this makes we want to rig out so bad. we have very similar energy when its time to burn I feel very happy inside my heart and head. weld on brother!

This bloke is so energetic and his weld was fast and it was a pleasure watching a true craftsman. Nearly all welds in the field are now TIG welded in Australia. Hardly any grinding and less repairs. With 6010's their is always the chance of worm holes and porosity.

Beautiful. Keep it humble. I miss welding. I'm jumping back into it. Thank you for sharing with enthusiasm.

You had me wondering about your skill level at first, but you finished off about as pretty a weld as I did in my day, and that is saying something. Nice work. You've got the knack, and a lot of guys just never get it.

Great video enthusiasm. You definitely love what you do it shows.I like how you stay humble and hate bragging Professor 😂.

Keep the videos coming. I like the way you show and explain your welding process.

Giving tips while actually on the job site. I like it! Applying these tips and knowledge to the real world and in the field. A great way to learn and teach imo.

I do a fair amount of ranching......I needed a few steel corner posts and had a bunch of scrap 2.5 pipe laying around ....left over pieces from multiple projects through the years...so I stopped by here to shore up my pipe welding "skills" to patch together 80 plus inches of pipe to make braces with. Thank you sir, for your enthusiasm and excellent channel.

I also love what I do. As you know our work is one of the representations of our true characters. Great vid and energy.

Wow, that bead is glorious. Half of the time he was looking at the camera, too, haha. Second nature!

That is a first class weld, neat uniform and tidy. Your explaining as you go tells me you know what your talking about. Excellent instructive video. cheers.

This guy seems really humble. Great welder too. Respect!!

“So I never claimed to be a bad ass welder” .....says the “Welding Professor “. 😂😂 Nice dimes.

Thats what im talking about. Now thats a passionate welder. Great work my man.

Love your attitude. Not cocky but confident !!!

Great instructions. Have not welded in years but I did pass the test twice about 50 years ago. And I did learn from watching this. A little practice and I think I can do it again.

Damn right “im sure it’s not the best, I’m just me, can’t be the best always, but you can TRY, but I ain’t no machine but you can try”. Bad ass homie!. In any occupation is TRY!.

You don't claim to be a bad ass welder but you are man. Starting welding classes later tonight and this just hypes me up to learn more. Thanks for the video again and looking forward to the settings video. Cheers from Central California

In starting of the video i thought "this man gonna do shit welding" And at the end u proved that u r one of the best,, proud of u, Weldo bro

I miss stick welding so much , I’ve been welding for 15 years professionally at the start I worked in ship yard on Ohio river pipe welding it was great money. Now I’m a rig welder with a gravey job I’ve gotten soft lol I miss my roots. Nice video

I’m sure it’s not the best, I’m not the best, I’m just me! Honest work man great video!

The trades are dying in every way. Keep up the good work brother!

And this is how we did it 20 years ago. This weld takes way too long, the weld is closed, but take an RX of it, and you are screwed. Good for beginners though. Look how he needs to clean after every weld: he HAS to, or slack wins the game. Conclusion: this guy really knows how to weld with a Rod and he LOVES his job: He's not the best but he is just hilmself. RESPECT!

What can i say, I'm an auto mechanic. And ur video it's just one of the best out there. Yeah u love ur job. Also want to say very humble and dedicated. Ur like a robot

I miss those days of being a welders helper on pipelines. I got discouraged by my welding ability since the welder I was working with always said either you have it or you don't. Now I've been a dirty xray hand for the past 10 years and I always wonder if I could have been a welder if I stuck it out.

nice set of dimes boss, come to B&G PIPELINE we need some good ones like you! all of us old heads getting out off the road an back home. 30 years doing what we do an u my friend show u are passionate about your work more than anyone I've ever met.

That passion shows on the beautifully done weld. Thank you.

Your stick welds are better than some tig welds. You have a true passion for your skill.

My respect is for you, thanks for showing this video. I work for the iron workers 433. I have 18 years in experience, I welded w stick & wire but I use the wire more. I have all my tools to weld pipes. Can you give me more information about welding. Do you need someone to help you get more experience?

I never run a grinder in-line with my face. Great looking welds!

Nice to see a man who is a pro. Because he cares to do it right !!!

Hey Wally! You, sir, are what makes America Great! No BS, just good old fashioned hard work! Keep up the good work my friend!

Great demo buddy, thanks for sharing knowledge, may god keep blessing you .

You just earned another subscriber. Great weld skills you have.

This guy is really COOL man! He welds fast, clean e really neat. WOW!

Great video brother I been a welder for 20 years I like the way you express yourself about welding nice job brother

That’s some slick stuff man. Please keep posting more welding

Hey Wally, could you show us how you put a root in on a horizontal joint? Do you whip and pause or drag? I’m still in school trying to get this down. I’m struggling with out running the weld puddle and my keyhole getting too big. What am I doing wrong? I’ve messaged some of the big welding channels on KZfaq, but none have responded as of yet. If you could do this I would really appreciate it.

You Da' MAN!! Missed your calling, should be teaching classes for kids who wanna' learn trades. You got a unique skill, thank you for sharing the knowledge.

Great Video, clear, precise and didn't waste my time.!! Two thumbs UP !

Awesome video bro keep them coming and very nice welding

Make more vids ! You’re a beast!

DUDE GOOD WELD... U SAY U AINT THE BEST BUT THATS UP IN THE TOP. GOOD JOB

Nice bud, finally some great PRACTICAL information on welding. Stance, the chicken wing, the feathering, even the suspender strap on the helmet you rigged up, everything is great information! Subbed, such a great channel full of great information.

Over 1 million views!! Damn Wally your makin moves bro!

Nice job there, lovely to see someone who has the capability to use stick welding. More of a dying art these days with the introduction of mig welding, keep your tip hot and have fun!

Great mention on positioning your body, most people don’t get that at all and they can’t lay a steady bead because of it. Being comfortable is key. Good video!

I can't believe how easy the professor made that look.. And to compound my feelings of my own welding ability inadequacies, the professor goes on to say hes not the best welder in the weld at the end... Grrrr damn you weld professor! Please keep making these videos.. Your obvious enthusiasm, love of our trade and welding ability is inspirational mate. Peace

I see down hill all the way , when did you go uphill, wtf I’m lost, never mind . Good job

That's a fine weld stacking the dimes.

i just click then watch and just in love with weld now thanks for sharing your knowledge to some people who dont know how to weld

I agree with most comments on here in which this guy has amazing energy and you can tell he loves what he does. You can also tell that the man knows what he's doing with his start stops but with all that being said, I'm surprised nobody else other than myself had noticed there was porosity in his root pass, his filler, as well as his cap had porosity. There was much more porosity in the filler pass and only noticed a few pinholes in the cap. This may be a project where porosity does not matter much but coming from a welder myself and in my opinion, it should not matter what you're doing, you should stick to shooting for no pin holes, cracks or contamination of any kind. With that being said again it still looked very good

Saludos amigos.k buen trabajo m gustaría saber zoldar como este camarada.👍👍👍👍buen trabajo amigo.

No,you're not a bad ass welder,you're a god

Thank you for the video, great weld. haven't done any pipe welding but you sure make it look easy. Keep up the great videos.

Liked and subscribed. Not because I know how and what exactly to do and anything to offer, But because any man with that much passion deserves it.

Man! What octane you running in that Energy drink? I get keyed up just watching this vid. Keep burning up that rod mister..right on!

You sir get a subscribe! I'm some one who's trying to learn the profession and stuff like this is golden!!!!

Today I learned something new.. Thanks for the demonstration Sir.. Keep up the good work.. Good welding👍👍👍👍👍

That was a good weld man .I'm glad your outthere doing your thing and letting us learn thanks

The best way to learn right it's practice no one going to give you the right settings, just take you time and practice with you own rig,

good job,, so many company hire cause youre very fast worker and im sure your will be assign piping line of toilet

Very bad ass welding. Great work sir.

The video is funny and energetic like the vibe you are spreading good job 😎👍🏾👍🏾

Are there many defects when welding from top to bottom? In Russia, this technique is not practiced, but the facing seam you have turned out beautiful. BRAVO!!!

who would dislike this? Thank you sir, a real pro at work here. I learned a lot! Love the emphasis on positioning.

Awesome guide on how to do an position yourself, Great video keep up the great work.

When you drink to many rockstars and you have so much enrgery! Lol

Nice job brother 👍

Great video! I get confused about rods so I just use 6011 for dirty and 7018 for clean & dry. All the rest I can't remember or keep up with.....

Solid job 👌. Your passion shows in your ability to not only teach but to execute.

I would love to apprentice under dude like that. Swallow ma pride for first year or so then start turning things out and learning.

I really would like to see how clamps work like the one in this video and the other type of clamps

You are definitely good at what you love to do, great job, they are lucky to have you working for them

Thanks for doing these videos. I'm teaching myself to weld and every little thing helps.

Slick work. Keep up the great work and be safe out there brother ✌🏼💪🏼

This is the best welding ever

I know nothing about welding but this is really fun to watch!!! Your welds are seriously clean and smooth.

Without reading any comments that was fucking amazing and well done !!! Awesome job and nice tips. You have to be strong to do this.
