Hey Guys,
I would something say over my Person, i am 24 years young and in a education as Locksmith/Welder from Germany.
In this education i have the first contact with welding.... and now i love this job.
The following pictures shows art welding and i ask you is it possible and realistic to produce??!
If you say it is, please show me how. I work to get similar Results but with not enough success.
Steel Thickness?(=Stainless Steel)
Welding Process?(wig, tig, electrode)
The Settings of the Welding machine?
How get i this crazy Colors?
Pls Help if you have ideas, the Project would like a Present for my Bro.
What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Welcome aboard! There's a fellow on Instagram who does this, and makes incredible pieces. I have no idea what his process is, but he achieves excellent color control.
So, short answer, this stuff is real and can be done, but I can't advise you as to how.

Yea the man is Arronexus.
Yup to getting it down. Learn to control the hell out of the foot pedal and learn to control the puddle with the filler rod and watching the puddle.

I agree with Josh here. Look at the blended shading around the corners of the eyes by the nose on the cat and the blended shading on both pieces everywhere....good luck tigging that.Poland308 wrote:I believe that it was polished to a high shine and then the color was added using a micro oxy/acetylene torch.

Thank you for all the Answers!
@ Poland : I had the same idea with a torch to get the Colours.... welding than i clear the Steel Surface but dont polish it.
than I take a torch an get heat in the welding puddle, the colour are there but no so Strong and crazy like in the Pictures
you mean if i polish it I had a better result?
What you think also, he works only with Tig or Help to get this colour with a torch? Today I am at work and try it with polish and torch.

My friend is very good at weld writing. Not as complicated, but she gets the style right. (Kind of like a sledgehammer in a velvet bag) Sorry for stealing your photo Renee, if you ever see this, (Don't bash me)

His work doesn't show the uniform shading that the other 2 examples show so I believe Josh nailed it. Shaded with a jewelers torch.Farmwelding wrote:So I asked Mr dabswellington o Instagram and he said all his is tig and only tig. Here is his most recent work

I NEED that, to give to my wife. It would be priceless, and she'd certainly hang it in a place of honor. Probably across from the toilet, so she can admire it while having a poo...weldin mike 27 wrote:My friend is very good at weld writing. Not as complicated, but she gets the style right.

Any man who has not made that apology either "hasn't" been married long, or "wasn't"

I try it today but without success. The Idea with the torch is good....
But when I tig that with Stainless steel Filler rod 1.431 (Steel number) and 8mm thick Stainless the Puddle are dark and had no colours. Is it to hot or what is my Problem? I am to slow?

You will get better color from mild. SS overheats too fast and turns black. These guys are micro-torching this stuff...no matter what answer they give to a question.ProtectWelding wrote:I try it today but without success. The Idea with the torch is good....

Aronexus also just responded and he uses a while lit of different cups and flow rates to get color in stainless

Be careful fellas. We done want to turn this into an internet forum. Unless you have had a go, using the equipment these people use, you don't know. Full stop. Don't make statements you cant quantify.

Color is doable but it's not controllable. Heat that plate up and that color will fade right out. Jeweler's torch. ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)
