- This is a mash up of a clips from projects where the video didn't work out. This is mainly clips of different ways that i've been using the Fireball Tool squares. i love these squares and i use them for everything!
The first clip the mega squares held the plate and being so large also aligned the 1" tube to run parallel.
the second clip was a jig to make 12 short "ladders". I used 3 mini monster squares to clamp at the width needed for the ladders. Then i simply placed 2 mini mega squares as the outside corners and just clamped them to the table solid. Then i used the 3 monster squares as the places for the rungs.
3rd clip. i needed to make 8 identically spaced rungs for a custom shelf. The frame of the shelves was made with rectangle tubing but they wanted adjustable shelves made out of round tube. So the tube had to be spaced right as well as the bolt hole spacing and orientation. (this is one of the little jobs that drive you insane) it was made easy with these squares, i used the outside edge to keep the bolt holes square and little marks to line the pipe up.
4th clip was a super simple table. the material was 2" and the big Mega squares have sides 3" tall. This allowed for me to push the material into the corner as i clamped it and it held the legs level as well as square to the frame. stupid easy.
5th clip shows how easy it is to square up a tube to plate. the tabs make it very easy to hold something square while you clamp with your other hand.
6th clip i needed to make some custom jackstand bases. I just eyeball locations while using the squares to make it look good.
7th clip is just using a mega clamped to the side of the table to make it a more comfortable height to weld at.
8th clip....easiest way to get perfect outside corner joints all the way around.
Fireball Tool squares make fabricating better.
I'm impatiently awaiting the arrival of a mini mega square to turn a stack of steel in my garage into a fab table. I love these videos, these tools are truly limited by your imagination.
My first Fireball Tool square just landed at my doorstep! Can’t wait to put it to work!
You will love it!
Nice work JD always good to see you busy
Vaux_Wolf thank you very much!
Very kool, you probably show the most uses of the fireball tool, then even fireball.
Very usefull tools.... keep posting, thx
Henry Sanchez thanks, glad you find it useful! Thanks for watching
Love to see the different ways of using the Fireball squares! They should use you as their "instructional" videos! Cheers!
Omid M. Thanks, glad you like it!
u never miss a beat 👍
those fireball tools are next on my shopping list -thanks for the vids
Claudio Reyes thanks for watching!
JD Awesome work!!! Could you review your plasma cam table for us please!!!
This is so satisfying to watch! Some really cool ideas there with the Fireball tools... Man I need to invest in some of those aluminium ones!! Good job JD!
stevo450ify thanks for watching, glad you liked it!
Your skill & know-how are exceptional, with your "sound-track", alone, making the video well worth running. Wish more people knew how to appreciate real music, rather than all this "tribal war" noise in vogue today. Thanks J. D. Don't want to miss any of your films.
I don't know how you ever got anything done,... before those Fireball Squares. You sure can apply them. Cheers!
Pete Macrae I don't cuss as much when working now either😂😂
JD - If they gave a black belt for Ingenuity you would have a 5th degree for sure. Great use for the Fireball squares.
John Bidwell haha thanks!
Great selection of music
Good video JD. Enjoyed!!
Reid Eichner thank you!
Love the technique for locating the square tube on the flange.
Rick Ramirez thanks!
Me and my friends watch this just to see the Ironworker who listens to classical music. As rare as the mythical white moose, the politician who tells the truth, or Chinese power tool that works.
JD you is the man love it keep em coming 🖒🤘
James White thanks👊👊 thanks for the support
Another A+. Thanks JD!!!
Mark Tracy thank you!
I just built a badass 4x8 fab table out of 1/2” plate and those would work great with it! I gotta get some!
What is the preferred Fire Ball square material. Aluminum or Cast Iron
radishfever I do more steel fab so I prefer the cast iron
Como siempre excelente trabajo👍
nice work apexish
have you ever seen the Self Adjusting Locking Pliers that whould be a handy tool for you
Richard thanks, I'll check them out
Thanks for the video.
Duncan MacKenzie thanks for watching
Looks like this is a pivital video....lots of views, music, and a fair amount of copy to explain the content. Hard work for sure to document the craft as well as the results. Awesome, brother!
Thanks!
JD, I noticed that you didn't clean your square tubing before welding. Which process are you using?
Mark Fryer mig mostly
So many uses!
Master of None too many to count!
Sounds like it is time to make a trolley to hold all your clamps and Fireball squares in one portable location. Easier to keep track of everything particularly if they travel out to site with you.
Count them all out and count them all back in.
Thanks JD. I nice collection of videos of fireball squares being used. I love them too. Where did you pick up your scissor lift table that is behind you at 49 seconds of the first clip? Thanks, David.
DavidR007 I got that from harbor freight... it works pretty well, it does leak down over time... but no big deal
👍👊
I can’t afford those tools yet. But if I could man I would. Way to go by the way. Going to have to save stuff on my side projects. Hey when do you usually sell fire pits?? I made one and it’s not selling. Maybe cuz it’s 100 degrees in Idaho?
Yeah that 100 degrees Fahrenheit will tend to put off buyers of firepits.
Adam Johanson thanks, yeah it'll probably sell when it gets cooler
Wish there was a uk distribution
J C hate that there's not
JD just don’t take up pipe smoking .
I knew a welder that smoked one under his hood , He caught it on fire one day , he was welding with 7018 jet rods he did not notice until it flamed up and got his eye brows!
Hi JD got a question ordered a Fireball square it has been a week have not heard a thing from them tried e mail ,calling no luck .still no tracking number . I know you have some dealings with them is there something going on or problems with the company that I do not know about . Any help would be greatly appreciated . Robert
you should have received an email. double check you did buy it. i ordered something the other day and got an email real quick saying i bought it...
Ordered it on the 25 th e mailed them 3 days later Zack sent back saying it would go out that day and would send me a tracking number . Last I have heard from them, emailed again and called to day nothing . Came out of my Pay Pal acc. And I got a order number from them . I really want one of the squares after seeing you use yours . Sorry to have bothered you I thought maybe there was some problems with the company . Keep waiting I guess . Thank you for the reply . PS really enjoy you channel always look forward to your vedios Robert
Roll that B Roll!
Moto Z too good to waste it
Still useful for us to watch you in action
JD Brewer
Always good stuff to watch. Probably gets your mind moving too watching it. Gets you thinking when you see yourself working i bet. Could i have done this or that different. Time is money and efficiency pays the bills right after skills on that list.
Moto Z I do see all the dumb stuff I do, it actually does help me a bit
