yeah it's a windy out the wind picked up outside so we moved inside and things
that make building nice have sections in there but then you'll get those people
to see you can't weld in the wind I've welded MIG in 45 mile an hour way it a
cart and car for something yeah you ended up with that smooth well yeah well
that's beautiful the whole thing they look bad yeah that's well the only thing
you going on here if you change it your speed of you how you're moving across
and you don't have any kind of pattern to your weld yet just doesn't make any
damn bit of difference but what you look at is this toe of this weld on the other
side of this huh it's burned in nicely to the steel okay it's not cold and the
rolling over it and the Steel's not cut away so it's not undercut okay really
happen up here this deal would melt and it would fall down into the puddle I
need to have boys up here okay so that's fine
no I see no undercut and actually it's good because the horizontal weld is one
of the harder rolls to do well I'm saying you know with this piece you
could have made it where you just done clamp it from the table and make this a
flat down so you're just willing straight down right and that's an easier
well to do than what you just did but if you can tell you're here to learn it so
that's that's a harder well to do right there because you're going across and
gravity wants to bring the makes well drop off whereas if you're flat down you
can you can you can be doing a horrible job and the weld will look pretty good
because if it's too hot it's just spreading out it's not going to drop out
or fall out or anything like that sound good and that looks like shit imagers go
down all right go go side to side try to keep the head of the puddle that sounds
better
all right you see why are we amateurs though yeah look how beautiful that well
this yeah oh my god or you can do that okay you choose
choice is yours man knock yourself out there that is
gorgeous and how long you've been big we're about four minutes yes there you
go it's hard to do then no it's not sometimes it'll look like that just
change what you're doing you know
and this is the compulsory shot because I'll sell a poster or two when I do this
that's our rules poster there okay get the job done had fun nothing about
safety did you see the rules sure did you see
him chilly this morning that clear blue sky beautiful moon nice she's fuckin
beat the Steelers are quadrant it's freakin half inch thick which is why it
weighs a lot and it sits on top of the rudder post hydraulic cylinders attached
here and steel cables come back from the from the helm for the front and they
wrap around inside these grooves and get clamped on at the rear so it's two ways
of turning this thing the rudder post mounts to the center but it's insanely
too heavy and so you say you can wait on the boat and also to save our backs
getting it in and out of place we're gonna put it on a weight loss program
yes the cylinders are there but you wouldn't be able to see on top and then
underneath now you can't see it at all it's not a visual so what if we did
something pretty in it you definitely be cool for us yeah yeah
yeah I like that
oh yeah there's four pounds right now now you need to be some torques
perpendicular keep it there all the way around and this is why if you're gonna
film plasma cutting you do it with a lens that you can throw away
that's where this box good a good see that that stream of metal shooting down
is not kicking back please saying it a nice low speed yeah that's good
you got just a little ride to be right there that's not much at all yeah that's
where you were explaining the I was talking yeah yeah see here's what it
looks like when you're cutting too fast yeah that's what you were you get these
slants back where I was and you said that's when you were talking about the
kicking around yeah yes you know I think we need to increase this here that's too
that's too nervous my knees yeah it's not that bad over here so change your
pattern a little bit there once you get cutting into a spot you can't see all
that plane perpendicular in your torque there you go
see he doesn't see hardly any flame at all so if you're worried about our Chi
when they're cutting through solid metal it's not really a big deal
now if you're gouging which means you're just cutting something off the surface
you need to get some shades on because if you do that for all day long you'll
definitely end up with a case of our tire or flash eye it feels like somebody
took stand and just threw it into your eyeballs and you know you did this and
it will last for a day sometimes three so shades if you're gonna be able to see
the torch if you're not gonna be able to see the torch just run a brush across it
these these blobs they're not supposed to be there once up here after you do a
Pierce it'll blow a lot of metal back up on it and if you get metal in there you
can see that thing is not as around we need to go ahead and change our
consumables out so we want to do better cutting job because things kind of oval
in there that take it apart put a new one in keep my head at me here okay
plasma stuff now we have an old Hypertherm 1000 which they don't even
sell anymore but we changed out the torch for a Duramax and I tell you what
this is a much nicer torch because of the consumables that uses oh this is a
this is a space handheld guide so I can do this and then I I'm a known high off
the steel cutting another plate of Steel coming up here sure so it's kind of cool
you can cut them down to whatever size you need and then just run them along a
lot of times I put a little notch in it so it just sits in there you know yeah
this one I didn't bother so there's an outer shield that comes off and then
inside there there's the actual tip it's spring-loaded because the air pressure
pushes it back and when it pulls back it moves away from the nozzle and that's
what initiates the arc and then once the arcs go on the air flows around it and
pushes it all through that hole so you see that's all buggered up that's really
from piercing it's piercing is really hard and that right there is half filled
the metal inside and that half him likes to give up electrons are really easy so
all the juice comes down through the copper into the half film and then
becomes lightning and lightning becomes plasma so we replace both of these parts
on the outer shield the drag shield is not much we're just gonna take it over
to the brush we can clean it up yeah 65 amp so I just put that that's what it
stands high baggy um yeah then you if you go down below 40 amps you need to
change to a nozzle has a smaller hole on it probably 99 is pulled on full power
which is 60 amps for this machine okay 65 amps so these tips are rated for 65
amps is that yeah yes I mean you just toss these and unfortunately that's
about 10 12 bucks there really yeah yeah so there you can see what a good and a
bad tip look like that's our that's a really bad see they have him is eating
out of that got a little bit left yeah just right there in the center's
embedded in the middle of the copper a little okay okay
and happy a museum mattheum that you burn all the Hathi amount which you'll
see is a green flash which is the the copper starting to burn yeah burns
horrible the sparks will go everywhere it's just the shit but you'll see green
you see green you definitely need to change your tips so for those colorblind
folks oh you're screwed and you're screwed
they don't they don't have a well well it starts cutting that crap okay no I'll
use that instead of yeah so you also want to make sure you have dry air on
this stuff because wet I saw the middle line yeah I turned the
air dryer on cuz you get wet and water comes through it just it just goes to
hell and start spattering and sputtering and that kind of stuff you lose your tip
real quick did you turn the air dryer on on yeah I have an electronic air dryer
it's an air conditioner basically I thought you were using the little thing
on the back of the plasma Harbor Freight cells I'm pretty cheap and so his little
air conditioner unit with some copper in it and the air flows through it the
water condenses out it's got a float valve on it air well it dumps water out
onto the floor in here when it's full it's been a good machine for me
my best correctional freehand cutting this to do this because elders race on
South America and that way he doesn't live there nearly as much a floating
that ship right above the sphere you can come in contact with it but don't push
down when you push down you grab something on the plate and it makes it
snag and then jerks away and you got a perfect shot yeah it's a phone this is
where I was braced and yeah see it's a lot easier to clean up
beautiful Wow
now these grinding stones are cool they were pretty quick but they're great for
doing inside corner
you don't have your spanner tool for taking that off you don't need it just
press the lock down and give the wheel a turn till it locks in and then just use
your hands to turn the wheel now I do recommend you you have this common-sense
on plug before you do that I didn't notice we like her he'll yes it is not
32.6 Wow yeah I didn't think was that much either
like little Dinis duckies yep yeah yeah we got tired of cutting red cedar so
we're playing with the TIG gun wills never done this before so you're walking
that hole that's perfect like going from off it now I'm operating pletely let it
cool down don't get greedy that's fine don't get greedy come check this out
closing the old yeah man look at you so if you had to fill that corner right
there you know you put your rod right there show that the heats taken up in by
the rod right right and then you just walk that rod and keep that torch right
there yeah and then it won't blow away on you okay let that rod be the heat so
we're gonna have to fix that right there okay don't get greedy just use the heat
to go back and forth okay all right really yeah
okay last three hello gorgeous hey spot Wells beautiful okay there it
is it's easy to do and that's basically how seeker went together we started off
with a flat blade of Steel with darts cut in it like that and then pulled
together with come-alongs tacked together you get two of those done weld
them together and you got a boat simple as can be it's called origami or
frameless boat building I hope you'd like to give that a try it's it's really
easy so it's building a big steel boat no big deal at all so come see us at the
good of the land festival you want to give it a shot
we'll be there October 26th at societi get your tickets both sides right here
Thanks
you
