Hey everyone, in this video I introduce a new project that'll be trying to document every step of the way. I know I'm already a little late because I already pulled the bed off and dropped the gas tank, but it is what it is. Personal Instagram Account - Sick_Vicc Welding Business Account - VMweldingandfab

Welding Repair on a Air/Water Separator System A local company reached out to me for this job, they bought it from an auction and when they received it, it was broken. The customer was extremely happy with the repair and the 1 day turn around! Follow my personal Instagram - sick_vicc Follow my business account - vmweldingandfab
Most Affordable Welding Table?
มุมมอง 4.5Kปีที่แล้ว
Completely forgot to say how much the total cost was. I spent about $500 total for the table, keep in mind that it's a 6'x4' table. You could always make it smaller to keep price down! Follow me on Instagram @Sick_Vicc Thanks for watching!

Nice outfit you got what size cable you running keep the videos coming
What titanium welder is that? Does that predator 9000 run that pretty good?
My first welding set up was a mig 90’s Honda generator, that was maybe a 6000 watt(almost all the labels were gone when I got it) I fixed it up ran it and a Hobart flux machine I posted in my video about how to get started. But after I went to tech school I got a Lincoln ranger 225 built a little rig around it on a f350(nightmare of a truck constant issues mostly fuel related) but I never really ran it as a business because of the truck issues I kept having. Now it’s a few years later and I got a better truck and everything is more reliable and I can finally build my rig out how I need it, so that’s what I’ve begun doing.
Just found your channel, you got a nice setup going and similar to how I recommend people build a starter setup if they start up. One piece of advice from a structural stand point on something like this would be to weld the shackles to a square plate and then weld that plate to the trailer it will be stronger and less prone to ripping out of the trailer.
Can you do a video of the updated setup? And a review of the new machine? Thanks for the videos !
This video put me to sleep
Show up to any one of my jobs with this set-up I wlill literally run u off the job . To stlart anything hallf decent is around 8k. Be a real welder my man not harbor freight bs
Oh sorry, you going to front me the 8k to be a "real welder"...oh right you're not, gonna work up to a 10k set up funded by customers. 😂
Thanks for your information bruh
are you native american?
Also, do not limit yourself on just one source of income. Start investing in the stock market as well, just educate yourself first before throwing your money in wall street
Predator 9000... i been really thinking about getting it to run my lincoln 210mp. Going good so far?
It ran great but I no longer have it. I never had any issues with it though
Can you still do a video on how you accept payments and how you keep track and stay organized with all your jobs? Maybe touch on how taxes work for this. My boyfriend and I just started our mobile welding business and looking for some help figuring out the right things to do😭 TIA!
I’ll film a video about that stuff and upload it this weekend.
Good job! I like your Hobart. Have you ever hit the duty cycle on it?
Thank you! I have not, the machine rips. Just recently we were out at a job site doing some rails and I had one of my helpers was on the flux welder tacking rails into place, other helper on the grinder prepping welding surfaces and I was on the stick leads. Multiple times all 3 things were being done at the same time and the machine never hesitated.
@@VMweldingandfab wow, that's pretty awesome! I want that and the Ironman.
Fricken nice setup! Good for you young blood
what mount did you use at the frame for the trailing arms
Hi buddy me again I would be really interested if you have a Video or photos of how the coil overs are fitted as this is nearly exactly what I would like to do. Any advise would be very welcome. And where to purchase the kit from. Thanks again buddy. I have lots of questions ! Thanks again Matt.
Hey Matt, I’ll upload an update this week. If you’re on instagram you can send me a message @Sick_Vicc
@@VMweldingandfab unfortunately I’m not on instagram , I’m not very techie but I am on WhatsApp or private message on f/b it would be great to chat and learn from your expertise. Thank you very much for getting back I touch I really look forward to chatting with you. Thank you kind regards Matt…….
Hi buddy that looks great just what I would like to do on my 89 f150 ! What kit have you used ? And how are the coilovers set up ? I would really appreciate it if you could let me know. Thanks very much I hope to hear back from you soon. Kind regards Matt. I want to use my original bed also so my truck still looks stock
i need one of those "mooing" blankets. I love cows.
Looking good!
Thank you!
A tip i have is look at yard sales for cheep tools
awesome idea
What did you charge for something like that?
Nice informative video I'm doing a four link on mine not really going with a prerunner style as I have 54s but gives me ideas and I'm going with 18 inch coilovers and I'm doing a subframe but great video
Very cool to see more F150s being built! Looking forward to more videos
Is an LLC the same as having your company INC? My dad started a welding business and he has it as Inc? Or should he change it to an LLC?
LLC is best if you want to limit liability it's what most small businesses do. A corporation is best for larger businesses. It's best to talk with a lawyer about this stuff
I would suggest running a more powerful wire feeder, to ensure you have sufficient penetration. Small mig guns like the one you’re using should be used on handrail, exhaust, etc. there will be a tremendous amount of force on those D rings, I would be hesitant to use what you’re using on them.
👍👍👍👍
Awesome work man!
That’s to cold for a d ring hope you have insurance if that breaks your liable. Use dual shield or 7018 that 110 machine will not work
Wow that is a Mickey Mouse tool set. Crazy you have a shop?
I have an opportunity to work for a shop and I’m not going to screw this up. Thank you for the advice. 🙏🏽
How much did you charge for this ?
id like to see a video on how you charge or set up pricing. thanks in advance
Noted! I’ll make a video about that here in the next few weeks.
Wow I have that exact set up generator I have the multiprocessor titanium welder two angle grinder all from Harbor freight great video 👍🏾
What the hell dude???????? You just said be HONEST!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then you tell use how you scam HARBOR FREIGHT!!!!!!!!! Well that shows me your not a HONEST guy nor are you gonna make it very long!!!! Holly shit. Talk about a fly by night Harbor freight EVERYTHING!!!!! Shit a moving blanket for a welding blanket!!!!! Shit you know nothing that wire wheel is on upside down!!!
I'm looking to do the same thing. thanks for making the video, I had the impression that I needed a welder generator. what kind of jobs are you doing for this setup? like smallest so far and largest?
You definitely don’t need an engine drive welder, specially if you’re not doing pipe work or structural stuff. Smallest I’ve done is tacking a nut over a snapped bolt and largest there’s a few, depending on how you look at it, but either 140ish ft of handrail, 120ish feet of fencing around a home or 4 pergolas that were 16’x6.5’.
Be honest with everything you do. Scamming Harbor Freight isn't cool.
Who cares about harbor freight...be real.
😂
The employees told me to do that 😂 and I still haven’t done it, in fact I bought two more last week because one broke.
F@&$k harbor freight and their garbage chi-nah tools. I expect a tool to last more then a day and I wouldn’t mind taking them back that way at all.
Beautiful work brother, easy money
Good information and well said. Keep up the good work.
I started a mobile welding business 6 months ago and after a fortnight I was completely bust. Who knew you have to be able to weld to start a mobile welding business
You’d be surprised how many times I’ve done repairs on jobs that were done by other “welders” / “welding business”
@@VMweldingandfab half my work is fixing other welders work
👍 I’m going to start my own business soon , but kinda nervous at first 😂
GET MONEY BROTHER🫡🫡🫡
Like the box idea, going to make a similar set up.
good video bro.im start next week welding school .what do you think about the school and some licence?
I went to welding school and got my certificates but I’ve never been asked for proof of my certificates, so I wouldn’t really say that’s necessary. But do not try starting a business until you’re very confident with your welding skills.
@@VMweldingandfab im living NJ bro im looking for welding job.where are you living
Nice man, I’m in Colorado. From what I’ve heard opportunities are endless in the north east. You can do from small repairs and custom fab, to structural or work as a maintenance welder at a port (if there’s one near you).
@@jims4877 I completely agree. I always say 10% is welding, 45% problem solving and the last 45% material prep and fab.
Really nice weld brother, I'm considering going on my own in NJ any advice would be appreciated.
I appreciate it! I actually just uploaded a video with some tips and tricks on how to get started.
Getting everything out of the truck is half the battle
What’s up brother just subscribed to your channel ! Keep up them good welds
what kind of machine do you have? for mobile work?
For most of my mobile work I actually just use a cheap titanium 140mp, pretty much only mig weld with it and it does just fine and I run it off of a 9000 watt generator.
@@VMweldingandfab Interesting, thanks!
Easy work. Just wait until you have customers wanting you to weld on rusty, thin material. No matter how much you try to convince them to go new, they want to reuse old material.
Yup, been there. Some people just don’t understand that welding rusty material is no good 😅
they are 15$ each, just add more
Hey! I have a few questions if anyone can help, I’m going to welding school after finishing my time in the marines, I already have a truck to use and will make it into a welding rig. where you do recommend buying a generator and which generator should I buy for your type of work.
@@timbbldr hey boss, and yup a welding generator, thanks for the help, Semper fi
@@timbbldr did you do skillbridge?
Mario - Thank you for you your service. The generator that I have for when I go mobile is actually the Predator 9000, which is a regular generator from Harbor Freight and depending on the job I’ll either run my 140 multi process machine that’s 120v or my Lincoln 180 that’s 240v. I’ve ran the Lincoln and max power while my helper runs a 2-3 grinders and no issues. Send me a dm on instagram and I can give you some tips to get started.
@@VMweldingandfab I definitely will! Thanks
Not sure why you used such light weight material, 1 bang from a sledge or putting anything slightly heavy will bend the top tubes. I recommend welding a beefy strongback across the center with 2 new legs going all the way to the floor.
