Check out the CMR Fabrications Eco Scoop. I think they’re about a hundred bucks with a pretty decent lens.

I wasn’t sure if practice was allowed, so this is pretty raw lol. If I redid it, I would clean the edges better so it didn’t suck stuff into the puddle, and probably turn my gas up a little.

The coupon is 2x8, not sure on the alloy.

PrimeWeld 225 at 150 amps, about 70% EN, about 85 hertz. The coupon was on a heat sink. CK 17 torch set up with stubby standard hardware, #8 cup, 20 cfh argon, 1/8 tungsten sharpened to a point. 1/8 5356 filler

That’s amazing.

I’m pretty sure there’s a couple videos on here from Johannes about it.

That’s pretty slick

Interesting stuff. I’ve read some of this in Metals And How To Weld Them, but the way you explained was a lil easier for this dummy to understand. Thanks.

Some of that is common sense, I think. He said in the previous video that he was going to use an 1/8” bit. And if the metals thick enough to groove, go ahead and groove it.

Sure glad these calls are a thing. I always enjoy them. Lotta times I don’t have time in the evenings to get in on the whole thing, so I’m glad these recordings get posted as well. And nobody minds a little story that’s off topic either lol. Keep up the good work.
