Furick Cups, clear and ceramic, keep Jody's TIG torch lit
A three-month-old tour of glass and ceramic TIG cups, from the small Ally 5 up to the FUPA 12, has passed 63,000 views.

Furick Cups
No new uploads went up on weldingtipsandtricks over the past seven days, and the channel ran close to its usual pace anyway, a little under its normal daily views. The work was done by older videos, with one of them doing most of it.
That one is "Furick Cups," posted about three months ago. It is exactly what the title says: Furick's TIG cups in action, a whole lineup of them, from the clear Ally 5 through the 7 and 8 Pro, the Jazzy 10 and the FUPA 12 to a ceramic MK14. Arc shots and TIG tips run alongside. Clear cups are the draw here, since they let a welder see the tungsten and the puddle through the cup itself, and the channel is built on close, clean arc footage.
Behind it sits a two-week-old episode of the Weldmonger Podcast, "License to Learn Welding." Its argument is in the title: treat every certification as a license to keep learning, and a welding career tends to follow. Further back, an 81-day-old lesson on TIG welding carbon steel tee joints keeps picking up views at a slower pace, its chapters running from gas flow and tungsten stickout to a lay-wire technique on quarter-inch plate.
The subscriber count held at 1.13 million. Among DIY and home channels of a similar size, BAS Renovations had the outsized week, with about 11 million views. Weld.com, the channel's nearest neighbor by size and subject, also ran well above its usual pace, while Workshop Companion and Dirt Monkey were quieter than normal.
