TIG Welding Aluminum Fabrication - Making a Custom Thermostat Housing/Water Neck
Просмотров 54 тыс.21 день назад
The stock water neck puts the hose clamp in an awkward position that is very difficult to access, and it's made out of thin stamped steel. The previous person that worked on this truck over tightened it, which made it no longer flat. The new water neck has a sturdy 3/8" thick flange for a better gasket seal, is taller and angled slightly more to the right. This allows for easy access to the hos...

TIG Welding Aluminum - Tricks of the Trade
Never had to do that but interesting if necessary. As for the Micro TIG torch, you never see anyone on youtube actually using one on a real job. Demonstration, sure but I've never see anyone use one showing real world welding. I've got three of them and I use them on very thin Ti like 0.10" but it's pretty tricky to get things just right with them.
Very nice, can't believe I only just now found your channel. Also, there's plenty of 225X videos but not many of the 325X, would love to see your review.
325 video coming up shortly.
100% love this machine, done a lot of mobile welding with it and shop projects
Any suggestions on welding helmets for older folks needing reading glasses?
So those aluminum and stainless welds were done with the same tungsten that came with the welder or did you switch from the blue that was in the package?
I didn't change anything. I only used what was supplied.
I've never tig welded, but how do you put the tungsten in the gun with that short back cap? Do you just snip the tungsten with a pair of snips?
It's brittle. The best way to shorten it is with a grinding wheel. You gently cut the whole way through.
If I would weld have as good as you, I'd be overjoyed. Man, you're skills are absolutely fantastic and I dearly appreciate your channel. Thanks!
How small of a bead can you do with that welder
Welding for over 50 years (mainly TIG, stick, oxy-acetylene), wanted a TIG for my personal use. After a lot of research 3 years ago I was between this machine and an Everlast. Price, quality, and customer service won me over to Primeweld. Got the machine, the Maxcool 3000, and the CK 20 torch with 25’ hoses. Have not regretted it at all. Use the TIG button almost 100% of the time Since that time, a MIG180 and a CUT60 have joined the ranks along with accessories from Primeweld including the 125 cubic foot bottle of argon, up from my previous 80 cubic bottle, dual flowmeter and 25’ hose, 25’ extension chord, 15’ MIG torch, among others. Cannot go wrong with Primeweld.
Love it. Please show more of the settings.
Are these sold in Europe?
Does UPS ship to your location?
A tig/stick machine that comes complete out of the box(- argon) AND has the 6061 seal of approval for under $1000 !? What more could you ask for? The tig button and subscription to the 6061 website included with the purchase, you say? Stop being a greedy dorkle dong. 👍
You, your channel and your last PrimeWeld machine were the catalyst for me to pull the trigger and purchase one of their machines for myself. Thanks 6061, thanks PrimeWeld. Being a neophyte there’s lots of practice & materials I have yet to consume.
I love my 225, haven’t tried the finger switch that comes with it, but foot pedal works good.
I bought a 225 last year on a black friday sale. I got one of your Tig buttons to go with it. I've been happy with it so far. Last time I tigged anything was in like 96 on an old ass Lincoln so I basically started from scratch skill wise. I'm slowly getting the hang of it. Also wanted to say I am enjoying your videos lately with the narration/explanation 🤘🤘
How do you rate the dynasty series, vs the new HTP and the prime weld? I have a 20-year-old dynasty 200 that I love but when I think of upgrading, I just can't see spending 10G on a miller when i can get the HTP for (i think) half of that or possibly the prime weld for under a grand?? What are your thoughts?
Dynasty Top notch (better weld appearance) HTP/PrimeWeld very good, but aluminum weld appearance isn't quite as nice. It's a little "grainy" looking in a side by side comparison to the Dynasty using identical settings.
👍
I found this welder 1 day after I bought the Eastwood Tig 200... and I regret not buying this PrimeWeld every day. The Tig 200 isn't bad, but it can't do as much as this machine
Haa a Master Craftsman with exceptional skill and ability AND perfect welds EVERY TIME saying “I’m out of practice”…is mind blowing but I get it✨💫💎 I know where I’m buying my Prime Weld when I get started. Thanks again for your professionalism you’re a RockStar✨💫💎
You also just showed that you don't have to have a gas lens or special cup to make good welds. They are convenient, but not necessary.
What is the difference between the button that came with the machine to the one you use?
Button that comes with the machine is an on/off button, either off or at the amperage machine is set at. TIG button (I use one) does the same thing the foot pedal does…..you can vary the amperage as you weld. I use it just about 100% of the time.
I purchased the TIG225 a little over a year ago. I'm still learning to Tig weld, but I am very happy with this machine. They have great customer service, probably the best I have experienced.
I bought this welder about 5 years ago after watching your video! Wish you sold them then and I would have bought from you. Thanks for all the videos over the years! Been subscribed longer than I can even remember
😮 You cut the box! How you gonna ship it now? 😄
@6061 I'll buy one, but it's gotta have a sticker of you on it 😁
Perfect first tig machine. Does everything but fancy waves.
Got the 225 still can’t tac 1/8 aluminum like you in the corners. I keep melting the corners away.
Great video sir you are awesome ❤️ 😊
One of the Most awaited video, if you are recommending that should be pretty good 🙏
I've had the primeweld 225 for 5 years now, and it's been a flawless machine 👌
It's the best budget option for sure! I use the PrimeWeld225 for TIG mostly for aluminum, it's a great machine, it's actually easier to use than some of the way more expensive machines since all the controls have knobs

You need to review the prime weld 325 I was just about to purchase one I got a multimatic 220 that I have done thousands of hours of aluminum tig on, but a lot of times I get into the 3/8 plate and it's a pain in the ass cause I got to preheat it, I was hoping that 325 would fix my problem if it's good
I will later this week or early next week... Stay tuned (subscribe, hit notification bell, blah blah)
Hi aaron, great channel! What do you suggest as "all purpose" machine for diy jobs (iron materials&aluminum)? Tig or mig/mag? This machine is available for european market?
I tried to buy a Primeweld machine a couple of years ago, and they wouldn't sell to me and said they wouldn't support one in Australia. So, I bought a WIA machine... never got to use it because I got sick and gave it away because I didn't think I would be well enough in the future to use it. Now I have recovered, I'm on the lookout for a machine. I would love one of those, because I agree with @DaneSaysStuff, that they are great quality, but I expect the same conditions would apply.
Buy something local to your country with dealer/importer support.
That reminded me, do you have any experience with "LaYZr Tungsten?" I have some but don't have a weld space right now. Wondering how it compares vs the 2% lanthanated I use now.
Hi Dane, I just bought some about 2 weeks ago. I'm betting the name is a gimmick, but I may be wrong. I'm going to do some back to back testing with Lanthanated and Ceriated to see if I can notice a difference. I'll make a video.
@@6061 That's awesome! Your no bullshit approach is always appreciated!
Look up kanekid welds. He uses it, exclusively. I also use it, for all metals. I like it and haven't had any issues with it. Would be nice to see 6061 test it out.
How did I just find this channel? Love the straight forward and helpful vids.
Hi Alex, Unfortunately, RUclips doesn't recommend my videos nearly as much as they used to several years ago... The old videos received millions of views. Click here and sort by "popular" to see the good old ones: www.youtube.com/@6061/videos Thanks for watching

Thank you Aaron, I need to get around to using the 325x I bought a while ago. I wondered what become of the one from 5yrs ago.
Goated
Nice! Hello from San Antonio, TEXAS!
I've got a similar welder with the thing switched on the cooling fans sound like a jet engine 😂. It's a 200amp machine with 60% duty cycle @200 amps.
Great to have a low cost option
👍
Your last stage of polishing use a blow torch and lightly go over it. It’ll remove any fine. Scratches and give you a remarkable finish.
Abom showed how to use these a few years back. Neat idea.
First saw one of these in a Lee Valley catalogue and bought it to see what it was all about. I very much like the accuracy I can get with them,and I’m glad I bought it,but I don’t use it for everything,just the stuff that needs to be quite close but has to be drilled by hand.
Muito Bom seu vídeo Gostei muito do seu trabalho parabéns pelo Excelente Serviço que você Faz..
In aviation we call these bomb sights. They can also be clamped in place in some applications.
I’m loving these videos, never even knew about an optical punch. What model lathe are you using and do you ever wish it was larger?
