A welder generator is an awesome addition to the family. I haven’t been able to use mine too much recently, but I’d like to start getting some fabrication videos on here soon. You can build some awesome stuff.
As usual, everything you do is always both interesting and well done. Thank you for sharing!
I ran a 160 amp AHP stick welder off a 4000 watt Champion generator. Ran great and got me by. That said, you did better with your purchase because having your welder/generator will force you to crank your engine up more often and keep your carburetor from gumming up. Also, run Valero Super Unleaded when possible and always run stabilizer in your fuel to keep things working good. I now have a Miller Trailblazer 325 with EFI. It's in a whole different class but I rarely run more than 145 amps. There are occasions when I go up to 220 amps but I'm building some serious implements and machinery. This was a probably the best bang for your buck and is certainly more mobile than mine. I did keep my 4,000 watt champion for that reason. Very nice machine. Congrats. I used the same tactic on my wife. "Honey. We need a generator to keep our babies cool in the summer and warm in the winter if we lose power". When it was delivered, it just happen to have 50 foot welding leads. LOL!
I can justify to my wife buying anything as long as I use it for home improvements. Oh, you're right, the driveway and house do need to be cleaned. Boom, 3500 psi Honda powered pressure washer with the high end Italian made solid brass pump. So you want to scrape the popcorn ceilings and paint do you? Boom, new Graco sprayer. Repaint the back deck you say. I might need a couple of new drills because, well my other ones are old and some deck screws need to be replaced. I learned a long time ago that when your wife comes home with a bunch of Macy's bags, just keep your mouth shut and go to the hardware store and buy some tools to work on the castle.
That’s not how a family budget works buddy
Fish I Must 😂 hilarious. And oh so true!
Hey, it doesn't matter the nationality it works the same where ever you are! :o)
Hahaha so true
I'm the head of the family, I don't need to explain to my girl why I buy anything. What's wrong with you guys.
Hola amigo soy Carlos y quiero decirte que nunca me pierdo tus vídeos y me gustan mucho aprendo mucho apesar que no hablo inglés pero para mí eres como un maestro en lo que haces gracias por enseñarme
Awesome.. Love to watch someone who hasn't done it try.. Shows many of the different things that will probably come up for all of us. Thanks,
I agree with you Richard is always something to learn and life is full of lessons
A grinder and paint make you the welder you ain't! Hey, not bad for your first go at the it. Practice makes perfect.👍👍
Love it! My dad has welded since he was in his early teens and is amazing at it. His beads are so clean. I always wanted to learn but have had a pacemaker since i was 15 (well, not the same one - on my 5th one now). The spike in EM energy that welders causes can pause a pacer in your heart so... I’m not able to learn. Sucks but, it is what is it. Still enjoying my Finish Carpentry T-Shirt!
Sorry to hear about your heart issues, my niece was born with something wrong with one of her valves and will have issues all of her life. Good luck and God Bless
You should try Oxy-Acetylene welding. No electricity required and it's a lot of fun.
You can usually weld at 160 amps or below and avoid a TIG with high frequency start. Talk to your doc and the pacemaker company.
Valerie White wow I had no idea about that. Hopefully you’ll find some way to scratch that welding itch 😆
John Sayman Thank you so much. I’ve gone since 15 with “nothing but” the pacemaker problem/fix and in February i had a stroke, 2 days after a hernia surgery. During all of that testing, they found a hole in my heart on an echocardiogram. I had a TEE last week where they put me to sleep to run a camera down my throat to better see it. I’ll be having surgery in the very near future to repair that. Scheduling the surgery tomorrow. I appreciate all the well wishes, and especially the prayers. I’ll keep your niece in mine as well! Thanks for the comment!
“Life long learner” can’t say it any better than that !
Brilliant video Richard, well done to your wife and yourself for creating such a beautiful home really looks nice
Rich enjoyed the video homeownership is an endless project always improving
Probably the best thing u have ever bought believe me u will find uses for it.
I've worked as a welder helper on natural gas pipeline. It's funny how you can see a person weld for 5 seconds and know they have experience welding. Your buddy definitely carries himself like a welder, 🙂 and you can tell he knows what he's doing
Definitely funny when you bring up hypothetical apocalyptic scenarios to the wife...usually just get an eye roll lol but lately it's been a pretty good excuse to buy more tools 👍
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Ty Darwin Instablaster =)
@Bodie Titan Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Bodie Titan It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Ty Darwin No problem xD
I should have remembered to look away, now I'm blind. Good job with the welds.
Way to go! It's like when I WAS married, I bought a full time 4wd Blazer (back in the 80's) and told my then wife it had a lot of space in the back for shopping. It soon became her full time shopping vehicle.
I watched another You Tuber with a welding channel, say that laying a weld is like writing script letter E's.
This was fun to watch, your carpentry videos are awesome as well, but I view them more as a learning tool.
This is the first time that I have commented on your channel, one I would advise you on is to put a base board under your fencing so that the damp does not rise up to the the fence to make it rot quickly this is how use to construct fencing in the UK, so sit your nice fence onto the base board in between your posts hope this is of any use.
Great channel 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
Not rot sorry
Just wanted to say I really like watching your videos. Keep it up brother 🤙
i saw a guy weld on youtube and he always removes the rust with a grinder before welding
Those nice wheels for rugged enviroments sold me 😊
Small tip, if I may : on clean steel the welding is much easier and it gives much better results. The cleaning takes some extra work, but it pays off in results. Have fun with your new toy !!
Rich...Hypothetical Apocalyptic became Realistic last year during a 105 F Heat Wave when an Arsonist set Fire to the Countryside. That incident Destroyed 3 Miles of Power Poles. We were without Power for two weeks waiting for Repairs. You couldn't Beg, Borrow or Steal a Generator anywhere! We did manage to score the last one in the area at Sears. With it we could Run the Lights, Ceiling Fans, Television, Charge Cell Phones & Laptops and two Side-by-Side Refrigerators and the 220 Volt Well Pump for Water. Its nice to be able to Flush the Toilets and have Hot Water for Bathing!! 8K isn't enough to Run the Whole House Air Conditioner or the Dryer.
Tip: Turn the Fuel Valve OFF while Idling and let the Carburetor Run Out of Gas when not in use and use some Fuel Stabilizer in the Tank when Storing. Today's Gasoline turns to Gum when Sitting for a few weeks!!!
We used the Generator about 8 times last year in Rolling Blackouts or when the Wind Blows Hard...Power Company Turns the Juice Off in Fear of Possible Wind Caused Fires. You will need to Learn how to Connect the Gen to your Electrical Panel Safely or Install a Special Switch.
Lastly...I would Recommend Purchasing a Small 2.2K (1.8K) Generator too. They Run 8 Hours on a Gallon of Gas and are Very Quiet and you would be surprised how many Devices it will Run before being Overloaded!!!! That Big Generator will Gobble Gasoline which might be in Short Supply in an Emergency!!!!!
Cool generator, & good job first time welding.
Fence looks nice; but all new fencing does😉
Cheers🤙🏼
Your right about learning in the trades, The more you know the more you know you don't know.Good job.
Using heat, to expand gas, to move a piston, to rotate coils of wire, to induce current, to create heat, to melt metal.
i always enjoy your home videos, more than your day job vids.
Nice to see you educated your wife on the need to get that generator / welder. You will definitely be using the generator again even if its for emergency after a disaster.. i have an 1100 watt wen , and a 3800 wen investor generator
Way to go Richard! Now if you want to connect that generator to the house and save yourself tons of money, use an interlock switch on your breaker panel. It gives you more flexibility and cost less to install.
I am just curious as to where yu bought a 220 washer? Just bustin balls. Love your videos. Stay safe!
I see the 220 on there, and now I'm wondering if I'll can use it to run my well pump
And it has nice wheels for rugged environments... Classic.
I had my wife listening to the beginning about justifying the welder/generator and then made her cover her ears around 2:45.
Just used the apocalypse justification to my wife. She looked at me and said um no.
Welding is a cool skill to have just to know you can fix and make stuff. I don’t however recommend doing it in a cotton sweatshirt and canvas shoes. Leather is your friend when welding lol. Fence is coming along nicely. And a new tool to boot job well done.
Like your dry sense of humor, so much that I’m not sure you actually bought the generator/welder or it belongs to your welder brother-in-law. Liking this series!
I actually bought it but he really wants one too!
@Finish Carpentry TV - Nice. Looking forward to a welding series! How to install steel trim inside your house. 👍
@@FinishCarpentryTV So sell it to him once you're done with it?
@@Davey768 and you can borrow it whenever you need it 🙄😬😂
Cool stuff. The best way to learn is to get out there and do it. 👍🏽
Looking good Richard 👍
move over Robert Downey-there's a New Ironman in town 😳
Heck the joints look great
Will you be posting your building of the gate!?!? I’m doing something very similar and it would be a tremendous help
Santa brought me a Hobart Stick welder, solid build. Plasma cutter is next 😁
One more wrap up video of the fence please!
That's really cool, I didn't know you guys had running water in Texas 😁
11,000 watts will be enough to run most of your house (if not all) Connect it to your electrical panel with a 50 amp cord, #6 conductors, and it will be able to run your AC, refrigerators and at least most of your other electric needs. You MAY have to cycle off your AC to run things like a clothes dryer or electric water heater.
I use a 10,000 watt generator to power my "whole house" in Florida for hurricanes. Works great! If we have to run the clothes dryer or the water heater (50 gal.) I just turn off the AC, heat the water, then turn off the water heater and turn the AC back on. Once the water is heated up, it is good for all day. We have used it for up to 4 days at a time.
Yeah, don't mention anything about throwing the main switch on your panel or better yet, a disconnect so you don't backfeed the line and fry some line worker trying to restore your power. Do not assume that anyone buying a generator will know anything.
I looked at the specs. The welder is a 4000-watt generator not 11000 watts. From the web page " Generator produces 4,500 Watt surge power; 4,000 Watts continuous power". The welder has one 240V plug and it is only 20 amps so hooking it to the main panel would be limited to 4800 watts (actually 4000 watts according to the specs). It has four 20 amp 120V plugs (9600 watts total but the generator is limited to 4000 watts). Also noticed in the review section the welder runs at full throttle all the time. Most decent generators will vary throttle with the load which makes things quieter and more fuel-efficient. Definitely a compromise but in the end will work with some extension cords to keep the refrigerator, etc running. Good luck with the AC, hot water heater, etc.
@@rt198ptom8 He said it was 11000 watts. If it isn't then it won't work. seems like he didn't get what he thought he was.
@@murphymmc Always consult a licensed electrician to make the connection.
I was suggesting what was possible, not offering detailed instructions.
Make sure you use some prep and etch on that oil field pipe. Scrub and wash it off after 24 hrs. Take the time to prime it first before painting it with restoelum rusty primer. If not your paint will peel off after a couple months. I gave my neighbor the same advice but ignored me , now his fence is peeling like crazy even though he used good restloeum rusty gloss paint. He regretted instantly. It takes more time but we’ll work the extra elbow grease. My pipe fence still looks great after several years.
I think can make 2 male plugs. Plug one in to generator and plug other into one outlet that it tied to all of the lights in house. It will operate all lights i think and fridge but not ac as it draws more amps and may be on separate breaker. An electrician may know more about this. But I did it when a hurricane came and one cord ran all the lights in the house pretty much. So you you guys know incase you need the info
Subscriber from Scott Brown Carpentry here.. nice work ! !
Good answer.
Don't worry about the gaps Richard. A little JB Weld and some primer and paint and they'll disappear lol. Looks great
Gotta make more videos like this plzzzzz
Some one tries to run over that wooden looking fence down on an apocalypse they will be in for a surprise when they actually run into a metal fence haha
the trick with a gap is to have 2 sizes of rod and run the big rod fairly cold to do most of the filling, but there is more to it than that
Well done
Fit up looks awesome it's a fence those gaps give you a place to stick that rod , now as your gate goes think about a rolling gate you're on a little bit of a slope you don't want to swinging gate! You need a rolling gates its little bit of work to fabricate the roller assembly and obviously you need to pass the gate length across the fence another project for your welder seems like it would work great at your location the rolling gate great content video too.... Peace
“I can build us a fort.” 😂
Too funny.
Richard wear a full face shield or flip up the dark lens on your welding hood when using the steel brush. The wires will break loose and could hit you in the eyes or face.
Didn't get to see the wood pickets pt up yet where and when did you do them?
Just a small tip, drill 1/8 holes in the bottom of all your pipe. It will prevent them from rusting from the inside out, due to condensation. Looking forward to your next video.
Practice makes perfect keep going at it you didn't do too bad
Really want to know your miter saw setup and where you got the metal blocks you put on the saw mounts.
Tried looking for that video but can’t find it
@2:55, OK, that made me laugh! Thanks
Do you have any videos on scribing baseboards for uneven floors?
Thanks!
You need a transfer switch on your breaker panel so that you can connect up to 6 circuits from your house to the generator. That way, you don't need to use extension cords connected to the generator when power goes out. You flip a switch on your breaker panel, connect the generator to the transfer switch, and you then have half of your house powered, as though the power is still live.
i love how every tool acquisition has to run through the CFO ie your wife lmao i used to do the same thing lmao
Nice welder I likey
And all areas need to be clean before welding for maximum adhesion. Also, it's easier to weld. Create 1/8 of an inch gap with disk before welding helps too
I really enjoy the videos not involving trim
Nice looking fence. Don’t be so hard on yourself metal fit-up looks good. My go to plan for one time use tools is to check Craigslist and I usually find what I need at a bargain price. Sweet wife that buys your “justification”. My experience, sad to say, is some in the trades don’t learn beyond what they learned 20 years ago that “works” and never get better or more experienced.
So got that.!
Where did you buy your leads from? And what amp you running for the pipe?
to backfeed the power to the house takes a bit of setup at the breaker box
As having Hobart and Miller welders,millers have giving me better performance and starting- just my experience 😃
So I’ve done one room of crown w a borrowed saw and want to purchase my own. Torn between the 12” dewalt sliding (no XPS) and the 12” dewalt. Not loads of shop space. How highly would you recommend the sliding saw? Is it a must?
You might need to start a new channel called finish welding 😋
Looks good, you should have put down a rot board!
Those fit ups are fine for the field lol. Maybe not a fab shop though, which this is not. I am looking at buying a 10,000 starting watt 8,000 running watt generator and the Fronius transteel 2200. From what I have read the generator will run it fine. Was thinking about a hobart or even a lincoln ranger 225 or 250. Fun video thanks for sharing.
String lines are a fences best friend
The First thing you need to do, is go to a Store, a Northern Tool Type. Get Some larger Semi-Pneumatic Tires, to get the Generator off the ground more, and make it easier to move. You may need to extend the legs on the other side.
Now you can get rid of all your cordless tools 😂😎🤣😜
You got the power to travel with you 👍
Just curious as to why you went with metal for the poles? Maybe it's code there, or because it's near that creek?
A grinder and paint make me the welder I ain’t
Just from experience. A face shield is a must with cut off wheels and wire wheels. It will save a trip to the er to have the brushes removed from your face or a broken disk removed if it should break and shatter. 4” disks make a bloody mess and 7” disks cause catastrophic losses. Great job on the fence and working hard .
Do you remember the material cost for the tubing or the whole fence?
so to figure out how much watts you need for a generator take the voltage of the hobart handler 140 welder (115volts) and times it by the amps drawn (20amps) and thats how much watts it draws.(2300watts) or for a stickmate 160I its 240volts at 27.8amps is 6672 watts continuous but that welder can run on 120volts at 20.7amps=2484 watts. the stickmate is easier for new people but the handler 140 is cleaner and still very easy to use.
I just watched your video on the coffered ceiling. You might want to check out Chris Berry’s channel...the Idaho Painter. He does a ton of spraying and probably has some spray and masking accessories that would help you. Good luck!
your fitment looks good , practice practice on welding , get a painter mitt for the pipe goes on super fast put the paint on the palm of the mitt and just wipe on pipe
You should put a guard on the grinder! Welders use guards :)
How long are the welding leads and what size are they bro?
With large gaps in the fit up, what you can do is knock the flux off of another rod and lay that in the gap, hold and feed it like you would TIG filler while you weld over that with your stinger. Cheers man.
When you know how to weld, anything is whatever the f#*k you want it to be.
Your saddle cuts are pretty good - easy to fill
You need this now before you put it away. STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer
Need to put some beefier wheels on that welder/generator.
Tool addiction 😲 is a terrible thing, but I love it 😁👍
Must be a heck of a washing machine he has that runs on 240 volts.
I learned to weld in high school
The old apocalyptic excuse!!! I will put that one in my rolodex!!!
Jokes on wife for all her online spending the video before and then goes and buys a generator. I think we all can relate.
Salió más caro el caldo que las albóndigas.
The best term in the world... the tool arsenal
it makes your channel more interesting when you do other stuff😷🍻🍺
