Is it the safety sandals that make it highly effective? This looks like regular welding otherwise

Don’t neglect the safety linen shirt and pants which completes the outfit.

Safety sandals are standard footwear when you're doing hot work. In this case, melted metal that i believe is not gonna hurt just a little bit.🙄

That’s a perfect stick weld! The way the slag just pops off is quite satisfying!

You have to be pretty shit not to be able to do it on a butt weld though

I’m more curious about how did the camera sensor not get damaged recording this. To me it looks like a phone recording it

Thats not a "highly effective stick welding technique," thats just the normal, correct technique.
