Ive had so many issues with blue demon dual shield that I've sworn off the brand altogether. I find that Lincoln ultracore and Esab 7100 ultra are well worth the price increase over that blue demon garbage.

Hi Greg, Thanks for sharing your experience behind the channel. I think there are very few who actually "make a fortune" doing youtube, if any. Google makes the most consistent part of the profit by taking their 32%. There are a lot of folks running channels that are using "clickbait" titles and overblown content, but thankfully your channel isn't one of them. I have greatly appreciated the depth into the topics, the experimentation, and the knowledge you share, which is why I subscribed about a year ago, and have recommended your channel to a number of like-minded "handy" folks (I count myself as one of these). Cheers from Portland, OR, Philip

I love the video's but I think the issue is the wire you are running, I use .035 Lincoln Outershield 71M, 75/25 gas, it penetrates deep just like normal spray transfer but can run at lower voltage, I run this with a miller Multimatic 200, from a miller engine drive, it penetrates enough it will burn through 1/4" with mill scale easily, I can see the arc cutting into fresh metal. I also use .045 Outershield with a suitcase and it has never let me down yet, I do repair work on logging equipment, I have not had anyone call me back and say it broke. I need to run some .035 Outershield and see how deeply it does penetrate with my configuration, I have done bend tests and it has enough elongation it doesnt show any signs of giving up by bending a coupon into a horseshoe With the .035 lincoln Outershield, I run 25V and 450 IPM per the lincoln weld setting app informaton, It runs well and it is rated to weld 1/4 inch and up to 3/8 inch according to Lincoln.

I find that dual shield .035 is really good for applications subject to a lot of vibration. We use it for trailer builds where it seems to have better elongation properties and is more resistant to stress fractures with cyclical loading. The penetration is adequate for the cladding but we stick to .045 or .063 DS for the structural elements or just run 7018 or 7024 depending on position.

What is dual shield used for? Based on your video is doesn't seem to have a use.
@blueweld75 4 сағат бұрын
Dual shield is used where you need high deposition of welding. And you need properties that make the weld hold up to a ton of stresses. And it has even really good properties in colder environments where things would become brittle. You might consider using this wire if you have an older machine without pulse for hard wire. So you can use an cheaper industrial machine and weld out of position with it. Thats because of the wire. So think fabrication shops. Like in ship building. You might be in a really tight hole way down in the ship. And you can set the .045 wire for something like 25V and 275-300 WFS and weld in ever position. And you can just keep putting in a ton of metal because its a wire fed process. Fluxcore gas shield wire was design for out of position welding . So vertical and overhead, thats where it punches into the root because of the fast freezing effects of the wire. But its never going to have a bunch of depth of fusion in position welding. I believe that the depth of fusion is adequate hitting the root in a 2F like in Greg’s video. You will also see Dual shield in bridge welding shops , pipe and pressure vessels shops, and even folks who build trailers at times. Dual shield has fantastic elongation, and Tensile properties. So it holds up really well to vibration and being pulled on. So think like big boy trailer with a big construction machine on it or like a bridge . Its not the best for outside welding due to the shielding gas . But its used everyday outside in tank building , ship building, construction machine repairs, and also bridge and buildings.

How come dual-shield can spray with C25 or C100?
@makingmistakeswithgreg 12 сағат бұрын
So the hollow tube doesn’t take nearly the amperage to become liquid as it leaves the contact tip. That combined with the additives in the flux allow it to basically hit spray in situations where normal hardwire wouldn’t be. At lower settings it might operate like a globular transfer, but using suggested settings it is definately a liquid and not a solid wire.

Hello everybody, and hello Greg, that was a very informative video! I have to confess, I really like welding with dualshield wire. That is for two reaeons: 1st you can run hot setting out of position and 2nd the weld depostlited with my particular wire is stronger than the standard SG2 or SG3 solidwire. To be honest, my "everyday machine" is not what we are talking about in this video - it is easily able to put out 400+ Amps and so I'm using sprayarc very often, depending on the thickness of the material and position. But I have a small, cheap multiprocess machine, capable of 160Amps and it also benefits from the dualshield wire. With this it is able to spray with 82/18 Gas (which we commonly use here). This brings me to my point: it depends on the type of wire if it is suitable or not, not only on the wire diameter. There are 3 main types of dualshield wires out there: rutile, basic and metal cored. As an rough overview rutile is for out of position, metal cored for high deposition and basic for higher strength/higher alloyed steel. Besides this there are numberous different alloy compositions for each type. I don't know which that "blue demon" is, but it is not comparable to the esab filarc 6113 or 6138 and elga Stein MEGAFIL 713r that I use in 1mm and 1.2mm. These dig deep and wet out very well - even on the small machine (ok there is no chance that the 1,2mm will work on the small machine). I learned about the physics behind dualshield wire this way: because the wire is hollow, it has a higher specific energy in the contact area because this is signifficantly smaller then solidwire with the same diameter. The flux in basic and rutile wires "Cook" out any impurities and flush them into the slag. The slag also helps to stabilize and protected the weldpool while solidifying. If I would do a cut'n'etch on welds with this wire, would that be interresting to you, greg?

My dude, its highly interesting to me🤗. I think the root fusion is accept for a 2F weld. There is not a ton of depth of fusion but again, I think its ok. Based off of AWS codes and literature and my bias in inspections. I was a NDT guy for a long time. I am not a welder but I can weld up to several code standards. I really enjoy using .045 DS. But its only going to get that deeper depth of root fusion in the 3F and 4F positions. I think Greg is great and his videos are dope. I just have a slight difference in opinion in the conclusion. But thats ok as well. So I dont know how you would want to share that cut and etch. But I think it would be rad. I can only run .045 in my machine. At some point I will get a 330 trailblazer and suitcase. I would like to see how the bigger wires run. I cant really justify buying those machines right now. As my level of side work is not that big, but I can work up to it 😅.

@@blueweld75 as soon as Position allows to spray it will get good root fusion. 1g,1f,2f work great. 3g&f uphill with some limitations 4g and 4f I had some bad results testing. With shortcircuit no problems in all positions, you can weld vertical up with no manipulation of the mig gun. Open roots are guite easy with a ceramics backing. For saying: I'm no welder. I learned it initially from my father and welded kind of "redneck" for many years on farm equipment. With learning from Gregs outstanding videos and later the guidance of some educated welders my skills improved, at least it feels like they do.

Question. Do you control the ad length on your videos? When I click and get hit with a 30+ second ad, I click off and move to something else. Thoughts?
@makingmistakeswithgreg 12 сағат бұрын
So this is the unfortunate truth. Anyone who monetizes any video gives 100% control to KZfaq. All I can do is choose yes or no to monetize, and if I will allow mid video ads. I disable mid video ads. KZfaq decides how long of a ad, if it’s skipable, and if they are going to put it at the beginning or absolute end. I used to be able to make the ads skippable, choose start, middle, and/or video end, etc. All of that control no longer exists. To make matters worse I have no idea what ads they display (they are personalized for each person) and I don’t ever see ads on my own videos. I have done some experiments to see if they recommend a video more if it’s monetized and the difference is significant. KZfaq changed the policies Inorder to likely make more money since anyone who can be monetized has no control over the ads anymore. If I could get the same watch hours and help the same amount of People I would disable ads in a second. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work that way so I only disable what I can.

@michaelwhiting878 19 сағат бұрын
For us diy guys, if we were to limit material thickness to 5/16” or less (most likely 1/8” to 1/4” thick), do you think Dual Shield is viable? I found 2 pound spools of 0.035” dual shield by WeldingCity E71T-1 for $18 on Amazon, and of course there is the much larger 11 pound Blue Demon that you were demonstrating. It sounded to me like you implied the 0.045 wire was by ESAB? During my research, I found out that sometimes in wire designation there is a clue as to which cover gas the wire was designed to be used with as follows: if there is a letter that occurs in the designator e.g. E71T-1C it’s designed for C100 if the letter is an M (E71T-1M) it was designed for Mixed C25 and if there is no letter, it is unspecified. Sometimes depending on the manufacturer, it is a combo like E71T-1C/1M I think it is worth testing on my Miller 215 (running on 240vac), but not sure if I should get some C100 and a spool adapter for the regulator. Not that I do heavy duty welds with any liabilities, but it would be interesting to use it on some projects. I have inquired with another YT professional welder who says the Miller Multimatic 215 & 220 can run 0.045 thru their standard whip. I understand you have access at work to a Miller 215, perhaps you could try a few welds and see if it can handle it (I am assuming it may be something you may want to use at work if it does turn out you can run either size dual shield wires). Perhaps I am mistaken, but it also looked like you were using your Miller Digital Infinity hood and oddly two different brand gloves, which I’m hoping we will get to hear how you like the hood and are testing gloves!!! I. Looking forward to hearing more a those subjects soon LoL
@makingmistakeswithgreg 11 сағат бұрын
I bet the liner would run .045 no issue. Keep in mind if you keep it straighter it would be best, less chance of pinching the wire due to tighter fit. For 3/16th to just under 1/4 I definitely think .045 would work great. I guarantee you will find it far easier to weld with it out of position than normal mig. It makes really nice looking welds and the travel speed is very fast. Good eye on the gloves. I am finishing up some glove testing. I lost a bunch of footage when my camera was stolen so I had to rebuy some gloves that were destroyed and reshoot a lot of the video. I am also finishing up testing on the Lincoln/miller/esab shootout part 2, so I have to weld a bunch with all of the hoods. So far the miller has been exceptional.

Hey dude, I have a miller 220 ACDC and I run .045 71m Lincoln’s outershiled through it. I got the bigger liner and drive wheel for it. Just be mindful of duty cycle and pay attention to your gun dude. Guns are consumables and you can cook it. Dual shield runs really hot in comparison to the amps. I have burned through a 5lbs in a day of welding on a 10lb spool( this is a guess mind you.). And the machine and gun is fine. But my gun has been very hot. I just switch to 1/8 or 5/32 7018 and let my gun cool down, if I really need to hammer stuff. And I have used my 3ish year old machine like someone making money with it , in the heat and the cold. So I have been ruff on it.

@makingmistakeswithgreg 12 сағат бұрын
I actually did the whole test with stick and ran into a lot of issues. With wire you can weld oddball angle bevels and it still works. With stick you have bad arc blow issues when the bevel is too narrow and the rod can get in far enough. I couldn’t get consistent enough results to make it a reasonable test. Stick still has the exact same lack of fusion that happened with mig on shallow bevel angles. Most rods (besides 6010) don’t have that good of penetration so you must have a wide bevel angle and a gap just the same as with wire.

I had higher hopes that it would be a solution to get flux core penetration on 1/4in steel with porosity free welds. Unfortunately it produces real clean welds but with only slightly better root fusion than short circuit mig. Considering the cost of the wire combined with the gas requirement, it’s a pricey option. I do like the way it runs and looks, but I won’t be switching to it anytime soon lol.

The biggest thing I have heard is dual shield being a big penetrator. I know even bigger wire can get good penetration, but the .035 and .045 wires seem very limited. No doubt the .045 is starting to see some penetration but in no way should a person attempt to use .035 or .045 dual shield on stuff like 3/8th plate with a 200a home hobby type welder. So many people on the internet said dual shield was the solution to poor performance on thicker steel with a sub 210a machine. After the ton of testing I have done I am going to say that’s a definite no go lol.

I definitely did a ton of tests and at the end of the day my takeaway is if you have 26v and 220+ amp machine that can run .045 wire, you could probably weld a bunch of 3/16 to 1/4 steel to ok results. I wish it just had more punch. The beads sure look nice though lol.
@blueweld75 5 сағат бұрын
Yeah, dude your video was great and I digged it very much. I just have a different conclusion than you do. Great video and great reasoning as well. I just think based of off AWS codes and literature , that you just need root fusion and not necessarily beyond it. Like how spray goes way beyond the root. So there is an argument for depth of fusion but like you said, its like 7018. And I am ok with both, as long as there is fusion. I also have a bias cuz I have seen and inspected some gnarly things built with .045 dual shield. And some of those bits where welded in the 2F. More and more home 200amp machines can weld to 24-26 volts and they are affordable . I really enjoy using 24-25 volts for dual shield anyway. I want a smaller weld size in one pass for my welding style. The punch in the root really happens in the vertical and overhead positions, with this wire. I was surprised though about the 100 co2. I thought it was going to be bigger. Again great video and good reasonings for your conclusions my dude.You never steer anyone wrong. And you make videos like how I do on IG. So I have no problem using you as a source for folks like I do with welding tips and tricks and weld.com . Keep crushing it dude.

It will to a certain extent however it likely will not completely get rid of it. This is one of many reasons why run on/off tabs are used, it allows the lack of fusion to happen on a plate that gets removed instead of on the weld. This is also why tig is preferred for certain critical welds, with skill you can eliminate all common defects other processes have (lack of fusion, weld craters, blow outs at ends of welds due to heat, etc. For most things it’s not an issue to have a slight lack of fusion right after the start, but on critical welds it’s worth figuring out a way to eliminate it.

I figured this by watching your vids and this one really sealed that deal for me! I had intentions for a while now of starting my own mining channel of me working my mine and processing the ore as well as doing other mine related stuff. The only difference that would probably make it different than most other mine operator channel is that I’ve never seen another woman doing this kind of work (with the exception of Lila which is on Jeff Williams channel) so with that said I’m thinking that just may make my channel… but now that you went into just what it takes to run a decent channel I have to give that much more inthought. First, I never realized you had to pay taxes on the little amount you earn on KZfaq. Also I never even realized KZfaq paid people that ran channels as I was gonna hope for a donation thing with that but since I’d already get revenue from my channel then I guess I wouldn’t really have to count on donation revenue all though I’ve seen that on several mine operation related channels I’m subscribed to. I’m assuming now that that would just be an offset income from what you get from KZfaq. Anyways that’s a couple of my concerns on considering starting my own channel right at this point. There was a shitload of stuff you covered just in this one video that I had absolutely no idea about and now I do. As always your videos are ALWAYS what I feel are top of the line and this one was just sensational and got me thinking on just how to plan all this out once I decide to go for my own channel! Dawna

41:46 "Does this matter?" It's not just about the energy consumption. That 40% PF loss over the ESAB is...heat. So what does that matter? The ESAB says the duty cycle at 200A is 25%, and the HF claims 20% at 220A. Someone is lying about the duty cycle, and it's not likely that ESAB is under-rating their duty cycle. Crank that HP piece of shit up to 220A and see if you can weld 2 minutes on, eight off, and see how long the caps last... My experience with the cheap China welders is that they just lie about the duty, and at high load use, they'll fail. I've bought green machines that had obvious shit wrong with them right out of the box where they wouldn't work...but they had a QC sticker on them stating they were tested...lies. At least green has the customer service and will get you square. DIY, do what you want, but for professional use (me), you pay the money. FWIW, yellow is just a different green.

Soon I will be doing a 1 year update on the esab, it has been holding up nicely. Its duty cycle is no question what it’s rated at. I ran it for probably 70% duty cycle at 140a with tig on 120v and it didn’t miss a beat. On 240 it has handled running over 180a for a long time doing hard face rods. Part of it is arc gap. I run everything with as tight of an arc gap as I can and this will help duty cycle. The harbor freight machine would likely hit its rated duty cycle, I can’t test it because it’s needs a 40a breaker to do it. Harbor freight is no joke janky, but at the same time they do legitly generally meet claims. That’s something almost everything of Amazon doesn’t do lol. I just tested an arc captain flux core welder and it’s literally unusable because it loads the input line to 33+ amps just to weld 1/8th in material lol.

Thank you for all your content, your teaching is much appreciated. I’m still trying to crack the 1000 subscriber mark with my video channel with local musicians playing Classic Rock. Hey, have you ever thought about showing us more than your arms and hands in your videos? I cant help but think of the Svengoolie Show on Tv with Sven’s visitor at his door that would knock and talk with his hand, lol. Anyways, best wishes with your channel Greg, much appreciated. 😎👍

I could show more of my arms. The issue is due to time constraints and difficulty making sure things are in focus (aka small screen makes it hard to see) I often shoot closer up so I know it’s in focus. I really need a camera person 😅

@@makingmistakeswithgreg Thanks for the reply. Yes, having another person shooting with the camera is a very good idea. Too bad we don’t live closer to one another. 😁👍 Best wishes my friend

Great content and video! I can appreciate your work and teaching ethics. Much of your "rambling" hits home with how I operate my self-employed dog training business. Thanks for the effort and looking forward to seeing what's on your horizon.

Hmm, so what's the market like for training self-employed dogs ? What subjects are the most popular ? 😀

Thanks for the kind words and good luck with the dog training business 😀. I think welding is far easier than training dogs, you must have your work cut out for you lol.

As soon as I read the title of the channel a long time ago, I knew it was going to be gold. Just honest no frills wisdom about a topic I enjoy and appreciate. Thanks for sharing your time with all of us.

Thanks for the kind words. I have been working hard at editing some new content dealing with repairs that I think everyone will love. Including a video with a ton of stupid mistakes I have made 😅.
