What I find hellacious is his statement about the construction of the pipe. Especially the “impeccable Welds”. Color on welds is not good. Laying down a weld that looks like a stack of dimes is good cool. Color bad, dimes good. Color is caused by contaminating gases from the air to oxidize the weld. But on the inside, if you don’t back purge with an inert gas the weld will sugar. Sugar bad, stack of dime good. So both sides of the welds didn’t have enough purge. The color and the sugar show poor workmanship and substandard welds which are much more prone to failure. The other thing is the undercut weld bead, the “Bird Turd” weld beads. Another sign of poor workmanship.
I used to enjoy Bisimoto’s shows, and loved the accent.
