Thank you sir!
Hi Captain. Your ability to adapt and learn as you go is great but even greater is you bringing us along on the journey. Your humor and dialogue with us as viewers always puts a smile on my face a makes me chuckle. That’s why I always look forward to seeing your videos. Thanks for being the dad and family man you are. Stay safe
Thank you! Appreciate you watching
Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Don!
Your doing a good job you will get the hang of it. Your learning more this way then have some one tell you how to. Some time pretty welds don’t hold crap
Thanks Ron!
It should do what needs to be done it looks good
Thanks Richard!
Very nice weld on that l beam ! !
Thank you!
Your ability to create is amazing!! For your work bench, how about a spinning bottom lazy susan type of set up?? as creative as I get.
Interesting idea
Captain you have a vivid imagination and innovation, you put a smile on my face when I see your videos, thank you for making me smile and thank you for being you!!!
Thanks for watching Gayle!
Good video,keep doing what your doing.nice working condition.kudos 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Thanks Tom!
Great job Captain!!
Thanks Bob!
I was blessed to grow up with parents that had multiple businesses. I was running torches by the age of 8 and stick welding by 10. My weld and torch cuts at that age looked just like the stuff entry level college students do in their early 20s. Don't worry about how things look right now so long as they work. Getting better will come with experience and time. You are doing just fine :)
That's awesome Jason. I hope to have my oldest out this summer and work with her on it.
Good morning Mike! Are you ready for the "Ice-pocalypse" !?!?! Lol......Luv ya's from Kentucky!!!
Hoping it's not as bad as they say! Be safe!
Your one of the very few who gets the like then watch. Lol. Always a great show. 👍
Hey I definitely appreciate it!
Good job! I remember when you where going to try and buy one.
It's a beast !!!! Will definitely dig dirt that's for sure ** it will work just fine. Might have to tweek it a bit but will do great. Now make me one lol !!!!!
Lol thanks Mark!
B Newton wrote my comment for me 8 hours ago (what He/She said).
Looking good Mike. Can't wait for the test run :-)
Thank you!
Hey Mike, it's looking good man.
Thanks Jimmy!
Your workshop looks like mine...good job working with what you have.
Keep up the great work I always enjoy your videos
Thank you!
@@CaptainKleeman you are very welcome
WoW! You're raking up the views now, brother. Few are more deserving. And, this is a project that will be concerning me soon once I move out of the city and into the country here in Nevada. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice Mr. Kleeman 👌
Thank you bobby!
Looking good. Fasten your seat belt and go . Good video.
Thanks mike!
Good spot for a Lean To !!
We have a long term plan there
Good job captain😊
Great video captain 👍😎✌️ 🇺🇲👌
Thanks Ken!
welds are looking good
Thanks Thomas!
I like your design and want to see how good that it actually works .
Hopefully we will be testing it soon!
Let the locking handle point down gravity will hold it in place...Great work!!
Then the stone would push it up
Hi Mike
You are doing a real good job.
Your shop looks great. Way to go repurposing.
Ed from Chicago
Thanks Ed!
lookin good captain
Welds are getting much more dime like and the fabrication is solid. Weld penetration is the key. Continuous welds are stronger due to the minimizing of porosity and contamination.
Thank you Sean! Starting to get a little more comfortable with the weld patterns and maintaining the puddle
Lucked out with the weather. Loved the video
more fun than woodwork you stick bits on when you cut too much off, have fun.
Definitely liking it!
Really looking great man!!
Thank you!
Bonjour Mike tu as fait un bon travail pas facile 🤗🤓😘🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵de papy Gilbert de France bisous bisous
28:32 Now that looks like a good weld.
Thanks
Keep up the great video
Thank you for watching!
Couldn't "get 'r done" without that torch! Not having to deal with bits and hole saws on that thick of metal is what would put a smile on my face🙂
The torch is definitely a game changer!
You're the Bob Ross of homesteading🤔🤔♥️😁😁😁👑👑
great video, great content, keep those video`s coming.😁
Hi Hi Captain good morning from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲. Let's go have some fun 😀😀
Good morning Lloyd!
@@CaptainKleeman Ha Captain. Thank you
Very good job!
Thanks James!
Look at you already doing the Texas Tig.
💪
Hello sir. I saw an old IH tractor there. I like old tractors.
My old Volvo T22 also has 22 hp, but it is from 1949.
Great job !!!!
Thank you
when you move from a stick to a mig welder you well love it then to a tig
Great ideas for a road drag. If you get a piece of material the same height as you need the torch it eliminates the jerky up and down motion and you can concentrate on cutting speed. I watch a channel called I C Weld, that guy is a master!! Lots of great tips and tricks if you watch what he does.
Keep up the great videos!
I have a JD400 with a Brantly 420 loader that I’m resurrecting, hopefully more videos to come.
th-cam.com/video/JXHWCOQ6EtQ/w-d-xo.html
Yup, met him a couple years ago, great channel!
I like the way your new toy sings for us.
You are a quick learner on the welding,those welds look good to me.
Thank you!
good work
Thanks Johnny!
You're a welding/fabricator genius. MBTS got nuthin on you!
looks good but I would weld a chain to attach those pins to the drag so you can't lose them
Some folk drill a hole when they want to do a plunge cut, it just gives the flame flow-thru.
I would fasten a piece of chain to each "lock-handle" so they don't get lost.
Stay tuned!
Great job Captain, Great the way to take the time to do your projects and take the time to spend with the Kido's Great job. Where's the pup haven't seen it lately.
She was the smart one inside lol
Cannot wait to see you use this on the property, tools are a man's best friend....
Hope it holds!
Great video as always. I really like the fact that you don't mind showing your learning process including your errors sometimes, it makes it very educationnal and authentic!
Thanks!
Mike Tim “Cotontop” has a video that he uses a tool that allows him to cut circles with the torch. It is pretty cool
Another great one. The day you stop learning is the
day you don't see the sun.
Thanks Chris!
A guys fabrication skills are coming along nicely.
Hey captain build a flat or angle iron spot to rachet strap a box to put in stones some of d.p. heavy chain or 80lb salt bags for ballast
SCAFFIRE is how we pronounce it here in western n.c. have a great day.
Looks good. But you need choose us first LOL without us none of this would possible. Keep up the good work.
It goes both ways. Thanks for watching
Your channel is awesome, just remember to go back and look at your old mad mud dabber welds and those were the days.
Always good to look back where we came from!
Keep your torch tip closer to the material. The inner blue flame should just touch the material.
Hey Mike great work...you need to add a lean to to work under and you can add on walls later
We have some long term plans, hope to build a bigger shop after the TH-cam yacht is finished.
Hey Captain Great to see you getting the viewers involved . Hold this for me LOL
Thanks it made my day
We are all in this together lol
Your positive attitude Mike is absolutely amazing sometimes I really wish I could be as positive as you are sometimes
Thanks Robert! Keep your head up
Great job Mike, I love how you built the majority of it out of repurposed material.
Hi Captain, just like Mike your able to make just about anything!
If you put your weld on the side you want to pull it , it will help with your clamping ! Welds pull towards the side you weld it ! Put a piece of sheet steel on the ground to catch the slag ! Slag on gravel , stone , cement can explode ! You're doing Great !!
Thanks!
Captain you’re really getting the hang of it! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Thank you Kevin
awesome fab job
Thank you!
Should bevel the joint on the large piece of I beam in order to get bigger welding surface
Awesome work Mike, and your welding is looking awesome. C U on the next one take care and stay safe and warm god bless.
Thank you sir!
Great job! There's nothing like O.J.T.! When I started farming I quickly learned there were things you could not farm without: air compressor, cutting torches, welder and 4 x 4 pickup! With my old Ford T-20 small square baler, I'd bale awhile, run to the shop and weld on it for awhile! But, I ran 20,000 bales through it and sold it for more than I paid for it. One thing about that baler: it never missed a knot! Thanks, Mike! PS: At 7 am this am, we had 1/8" of frozen rain on the ground. I could not stand up on my gravel drive. Be safe! Lee
The ice is coming down here as well! Stay safe !

Amazing what a guy can do with a welder, cutting torch and a grinder. Good job
Thank you!
Two suggestions, add a piece of light chain to your pins for the scarifier so you don't lose them and get a rosebud for the torch, heats a lot better. It's a work in progress just like life. Stay safe stay warm.
You are having to much fun with your builds, I am so jealous . You are doing a fantastic job. Great video, Love watching. Great job !
Thanks Andy!
I think a lean to shelter would be a nice project.
We have a long term plan
It's the outside😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LOVE IT😂😂😂😂
Lookin good Capt.! Practice Practice Practice, that's how you build a skill-
Thanks Kurt!
20 yrs ago I bought a tri square for cutting metal. The tri square for metal is 3times as big as for wood,a brass ruler and magnets for helping hold it place how you want it with a sliding piece that will go up against the metal for a square cut. The brass ruler sits 3/8" to 1/2" above your material your cutting and a cutting tip slides along it very easy. I think mine was around $80 when I bought it. It is one of my most used metal tools. I also bought a 4' one that came with 2 tri square magnets. Drag looks good.
I'll have to look that up!
Weer een geweldig 💡 idee om van schroot ijzer iets moois te maken. Geweldig gedaan top job 🤩👍👌
Groetjes uit Holland 👋🏼
Looks like you're having fun Mike. Guys and their new toys. PS: that filter is working well. Thanks for posting.
Appreciate the feedback!
Get some short bungee Cords to hold the handles from vibrating loose
It's never how good of a wealthy you are it's how good of a grinder you are
Lol very true!
Fantastic video. Loved the snow work. Very clever thinker and builder. Goes to show one must protect the eyes and skin. Now to see it do the job which it sure will.
Can't wait to try it out!
Your doing it, so you will get there. The welding is looking better every time.
Thank you David!
Outstanding! Welds work, that's all that matters.
Thanks Rick!
I definitely like the conversational rational before the build.
Appreciate the feedback!
Getting better all the time. I love the commentary. Thankfully we're here, so you're not talking to yourself. People might think you're crazy! 🤔
Exactly! Lol
Part 1 thumbs up
Very cool, awesome to see you progress. Thanks for taking us along! I made sure to have my safety googles on for close up work.
Boom! At least we have some responsible subscribers using their PPE
Looking great Captain keep em coming.
Thanks Danny!
Blessings Captain! Keep Shining On!
Thanks Roy!
if you have a big gap you can do texas tig which is taking the flux off of 1 rod and using that as filler rod to weld over with the stick welder to fill the gap
Yup, did it in this video actually
I was really impressed with the hole cutting for the three point pins. Nice job all the way around.
Thanks Walter
Nice job on that Road Drag Land plane what ever you want to call it! Looks pretty good👍👍🛠🛠💪💪👊👊
Thank you!
You are rocking the stick nice looking welds practice make perfect 👍
Thanks Alan!
