Welding Rod Dia?

That was a very helpful vid.  It didn't mention in my OA torch manual to only hand tighten the welding tip.  Good to know.  The other thing is my manual states closing the Oxygen valve first when done welding.  This guy says to close the Acetylene first.

I have been trying to post this video all morning. It has some great information on how to oxyacytelene weld. I hope this helps.

Excellent video...

Youtube and vimeo are working great...  FB is hit or miss.  Every time the forum software gets a mod to fix it, they seem to do something at FB to make it not work again...

To post a video, just paste the URL on its own line, and hit post.  They will not show with the preview button, you just have to have faith and hit the post button.

If you don't like what you see, drag your mouse over it and copy to the clipboard.  You can then delete your post and paste your text in a new one, without having to type it all again.  

After a new member has 10 or so posts they will see a "modify" button.  You use this to fix typos, spelling, grammar or add a thought you meant to say but forgot.

They are working on a "drafts" feature, so that a copy of your post will be available to you while you are working on it without having to utilize the clipboard.

Dan, I tried to post the URL several times this morning. After I would post it, I would click on the video to make sure it would work, but it would say this video is not available. I got my  wife to try and it worked for her. Sorry, I am not very good with computers.
