I had always said it, "I can weld anything FROM the crack of dawn to a broken heart." Or, "I can weld a d*** on a snowman."

In an interview after seeing how welding them asked for those in Plovdiv butt welds give you what you give?

 

My favorite from fitters is" hell man, your a welder, if you can step over it you can fill it, right!?" Reffering to the gaps they leave me. I hate gaps.

 

Sayin my father told me back in the 70's............."You treat welding like you do a woman..."Get 'er hot n penetrate".................

 

My dad says "Using a grinder to make a weld look good means,you are a grinder "Not" a welder".

 

kinda goes with cap it with the gouge

 

lol the southern drawl goes perfect with his riddles

 

"that sucker could weld two pieces of wood together"

 

Can someone please translate that video for those of us that don't speak drawl?

 

What part don't you understand? The man was speaking plain ole Southern American language, if you have to ask you probably wouldn't understand anyways. I understood everything the man said. If you can identify which part maybe I can help you out. part of it was already translated for you. But if you can't get it, don't go south of the Mason-Dixon Line, otherwise you will be lost as a ************.

 

Not really a welding saying, but this one cracked me up.

"That guy (boy, man, person...etc) is one thread short of a full nut!"

 

What about "1/2 bubble off plumb"

 

I weld long arc sxhort arc heliarc in the dark, I fit for four welders I weld for four fitters. Lol up hill down hill side to side, no crack to small no gap to wide. If you don't like how I do it ill let you try!

Asses and elbows.

 

Oh boy that looks like somebody sewed up a mules *** with a grapevine.

I had a welding instructor that used to tell us, If you aint burnin, you aint learnin. Funny I had a fire fighter instructor that said the same thing. That statement usually was followed by get your *** back in there and go to work.

Good thread.. There must be loads of sayings out there.. heres one ive made into a sticker and slaped it on my welding mask...... WELDERS DO I IN ALL POSITIONS.... always puts a smile on peoples faces..

 

If you can't fit the stinger in it, it ain't a gap

 

Sorry guys, this one is coming back, was searching on google..

Welders are like prostitutes, they are always in awkward positions, getting hot, screaming for more rod and money, and seeking deep penetration.

 

asking another welder to checkout your root

the arc is the only brite thing about YOU
