Thread: TIG Finger from Jody's Site

  1. Default

    I bought the video last night. I owe him. My big head was SWIMMING with welders to buy. If I hadn't upon his site, i never would have bought the [patiently waiting...] PP256.
    I am out trying to 'find myself'. If I should wander back while I am gone, please tell me to sit quietly and wait for myself to return.

    One re-note on the TIG fingers. Buy a couple as a few people recommended. I could not fine mine yesterday. It was a gift and I will find it. But they can vanish sometimes.

    Got a chance to look at some of the first DVD. It is a two DVD set, and I think its real good and well worth the Money. It is a collection of the 2010 videos that were done in 2010 and the quality is way better then the on line versions. I am still a noob but Jody and weldingtipsandtricks has helped me improve faster then anything else short of a welding school or weldor standing next to me.

    I bought a TIG finger the other day. However, it showed up at my old job and I now have to drive across town to go get it. Grrrrrr.

    I ordered 2 on Friday and got them in the mail on Monday (with a decal). They work great, I haven't overheated my torch hand since I started using it.

    Just ordered a 3 pak 5 minutes ago, look like a good idea, especially after getting my drag finger done to medium-well more than once in the few hours I've been TIG welding ever!

    I bought a 3-pack a few months ago, even though I don't have a tig setup (yet). I've found they work great for your off-hand first-finger when guiding a MIG nozzle. I've been using the tillman 45 pigskin mig gloves, which have uninsulated fingers and palm, so it gets a bit toasty resting your finger on the nozzle. I think I'm going to try the 55 cowskin ones next time, though. the pigskin shrinks too much from spatter and accidentally touching hot metal.

    If you got the cash order extra 3pks. You can resell them pretty quick at work. If you don't, yours' will disappear quick. They work great and save you from using the monster thick gloves when TIG'n.

    They also work well on the third or fourth cut when plasma cutting on thick metal. The heat can build up to an uncomfortable level otherwise. I found that out when cutting a number of small pieces from 1/2" bar stock today. I slipped one on the finger I was resting the torch on for a guide. I am MUCH more steady when cutting if I am not being burned.
