A great primer for keeping your stick welding game on point.
This video covers several different welding processes and electrode varieties.
E-6010/6011 – E-6013 – E-7018
Welding Polarity and positions – Uphill/Downhill – Vertical and Horizontal
Electrode Composition
Puddle observations and recommendations – arc gap, as well as amperage, rod angle and travel speed variations for deeper penetration or material build-up and deposition.
Weld joints are covered too. Butt joints, Lap joints, T-joints and Corner joints. Metal Prep and Fit-up are covered on most of the joints – and there are many recommendations for quality.
There are several great arc shots and puddle shots. It’s a really good overview of the craft and practice.
