Modern fiber lasers can cut 5, 10, 15 and more mm ;) It dependent of laser power and laser head max power. There right now 20kW or 30kW lasers.

Hi Jacob, It was the customers' decision to have two hulls bow and stern. The idea is to lift mooring buoys through the gap on the bow. Space between two hulls at the stern is used to safely install/Mount 2 x 15HP engines. I will be posting a new video once the barge is completely fitted out. It is 95% ready and the customer deciding what lifting gear he wants to use on it. We have managed to do some stability tests and it was pretty impressive. Keep an eye on our channel for the update. Best regards, Slava from LatBros Marine

Hi Kevin. Yes we have got all specs and drawings, including 3d model. Email me @ alloyboatsltd@gmail.com

Arvidas, this is 6mm 5083 H111 aluminium throughout

@@latbros did not expected so thick. Thank you for reply! Great job!

@@gaspadorius it is a work barge so will have some rough times as well. Mooring blocks are quite heavy and will definitely bounce around so thickness is needed. As well as the ses bottom is not always clean. It is going to work in the shallow waters

Thank you 👏😊

👏👏👌thanks bro!!

Where u from bro

@@fatinsami6407 we are based in Hayling Island,UK. But originally from Latvia, that is why we are LatBros

Tanks bro..your msg i form bangladesh

I work in Singapore..I welder also..

That is been primered first with wjite primer and then antifouled with blue. Antifoul is used to protect hull from salt water corosion and other reactions.

Thanks 👌

Hi Warren, That is right. Mainly for moorings services but also for other yard/harbour works. Aluminium is used because it is easier to maintain, modify and does not have to be fully painted. There will be more gear attached later as customer has not decided yet what sort of gear he needs. It looks different already. Since then we have added rubber fending and wheelhouse, engines to be fitted within next month or so. Regards, Slava

Здравствуйте! Мы строим из алюминия т.к. это наша специализация. Вообще алюминий выберают по ряду причин: легок в эксплуатации на случай переделок или изменений, примерно в 3 раза легче стали, не ржавеет а следовательно и не красится полностью. Алюминий: Alloy 5083 H111 чистый вес на момент спуска на воду 3.1 тонны. Будут 2 х outboard engines для которых имеются бракеты с зади. Использоваться будет для moorings сервиса ну и других работ в местной гавани.

Hi Dave, Thank you for the question. We normally use 5556 Alloy 1.2mm. Weld prep depends on the thickness and type of weld. For the 6mm thick buttweld, we do 3mm @45% on each piece of metal for down-hand weld, after it is welded we do about the same depth root from underneath and weld it overhead. Thanks for your support!

@@latbros Thank you for your reply. What about in terms of cleaning the material before welding?

@@davework5922 just removed oxide at list 20mm of the edge and then after that just wipe edges clean with acetone cloth. Welds should be nice and smooth.

Thank you! Have a great day! Great to hear all the support we are getting from people.

Hi, not quite sure what you were asking as google translate does not translate it accurate enough to understand.

Hi Archie, if I am right I have used around 5 300Bar gas bottles. And to be fair could have saved a bit on that. There were areas that I could have welded less.

HI buba gump, the owners of the barge were doing the painting. I think just a standard one pack aluminium compatible primer, several coats and then antifoul 3-4 coats. Owner chooses to paint it him self. All continuous welds have been welded both sides and Die Tested.

@@latbros Thanks for the info my name is Chris my computer and accounts are various names as I work for the government on drones and we have protocols due to hacking. Because my computer is encrypted I have to play games to ask questions on TH-cam.

@@maineadventureswiththetayl7191 Ha-ha :D! Okay, Chris, that is funny that you have to do that! If it happens to be that government are looking for reliable welding service, you know where to direct them :D I bet it is hard to remember all this made up logins ))) Always here to help. Sharing is caring! If you have any more questions, always happy to help. Stay safe

@@latbros I am working on a drone launch system for well a government agency and info has been forwarded.....bubba gump OUT....

You are right, could be a houseboat But it is a barge )))

True. it was a tough fight for the little fella but he did really well. Water cooler would be a good help but due to the size, I have decided to leave it a side. )))

Hi Tim, it was around 3100kg

@@latbros thanks

Hi Adrianus, feel free to ask anything that can help, my friend! This barge is almost completely built out of 6mm thick Alloy 5083 H111 Regards, Slava

I’d like to see a finished version in use

@@Mj-CWO4 it is still sat in the boat yard. The owners still deciding what features they want to put on it. Hopefully will be sorted by June July

Hi Anita, here we use Kemppi Kempact Puls 3000 Very reliable, amazingly compact, up to 250amp pulse output with 1.2mm alloy wire 5556. Need a water cooler and water cooled torch for long day exploitation. Would definitely recommend for mobile use. Thanks, Slava

@@latbros why 5556 and not 5356

@@breezeblockindustrie both would do as good.

@@latbros wow, some brands of welding machines are different between the USA and Europe/UK. Have not heard of the one you are using.

@@thornyturtleranch4u yeah. This are maid in Scandinavia, Finland to be correct. Great top level machines well designed and relentless. This little fellow in the video was just about to get this job done. Ideally need water cooled one. )) Also Fronius are very popular in UK
