About Igor Welder

Igor, the creative mind behind the YouTube channel “Igor Welder”, initially started his channel in 2016 with the intention of teaching welding techniques. But now, he's taking his content to a whole new level by exploring the fascinating world of welding electrode rods and showcasing their manufacturing process.

But that's not all! Inspired by a YouTube video featuring a mind-blowing Exocar project, Igor embarked on his own adventure to build an Exocar. However, he couldn't do it alone. With limited resources, he approached us and shared his vision. To his delight, we were immediately on board and provided him with the necessary Böhler Welding equipment and welding rods to bring his dream to life.

Using the Böhler Welding plasma cutter, Igor swiftly cut down the shell of an old E36 BMW Compact, transforming it into the perfect foundation for the Exocar. With the reliable Böhler Welding MIG/MAG machine, he skillfully welded the chassis, removed unnecessary wiring, and installed essential components like the bumper and radiator. The project is now well underway, with the front suspension, running gear, and finishing touches remaining.

Throughout this incredible journey, Igor has relied on an array of Böhler Welding tools. The plasma cutter proved to be a powerful ally, effortlessly slicing through various materials, while the MIG/MAG welder exhibited its versatility by handling thin metal sheets and thicker flanges with ease. And let's not forget the TIG machine, which surprised Igor with its impeccable weld seams thanks to the Easy Arc process.

Stay tuned for updates on Igor Welder's Exocar project, as he continues to showcase the incredible capabilities of Böhler Welding equipment and welding rods. Witness the fusion of creativity, expertise, and top-notch welding solutions in action!
