I started out the same way. Used tools, cheap tools, anything I could get my hands on to start working. Then I upgraded as I made more money. The truck is important. Ive landed small jobs just sitting in the parking lot and being approached by someone needing a welder, and when I have very little clients I took those small jobs because one of them may lead to a bigger job. Now I only have big clients that keep me fat and happy.
Yes sir 👏 🙌 🙏 👌 keep at it my man. Gotta have a decent rig it's okay to start small...when I mean small I'm talking 1500/f150 ish
The video isn’t bad at all it’s got good advice. I weld as hobby and do things around the farm but I’m seriously thinking of doing it as a side hustle
Thank you my brother,I’m start my business soon , a lot the thing to learned and get prepared
I see you boi! Keep up the hustle! Proud of you homie
Thanks bro means so much more coming from day 1s. Keep on pimpin🤟
Get it bro. I work full time in a fab shop now but I’ve been running my own rig on the side and I’m itching to break off and just do my own thing full time. Videos like this reassure me that I’ll be making the right decision. Keep up the good work brotha 👊
It's doable. Just now it mightve been easier for me in a sense because I already lost everything. I was sleeping in my truck....I had nowhere to go but up
Your humility, respect for others in the trade and desire to improve will serve you well. Be blessed and best of luck.
Thos comment means a lot to me. Thank you for your support and reaching out to me William. 👍🤟💪
I have a Miller multimatic 215, I’m currently doing the car thing. But I’m literally just giving this a go, got my first gig tomorrow on a dirt modified racecar. Been welding 11 years I’ve been awful in the past with financials but I’m 27 and I gotta get something figured out. Not sure how to price anything yet ha, but the guy took the price after showing my work so if word of mouth works as well as it does with our carpentry business I think I’ll be fine! Just gotta work on funding for a truck
I like how you showed me how to start a mobile welding business is awesome I have 7 years experience in all sorts of welding still working at a fabrication shop but would love to start my own welding business to be my own boss
I know we still have to pay taxes maybe be licensed for certain projects but I’m learning as I go as well thank you very much and God bless hope you continue making more videos
I really want to do a better video with more details. Thank you for watching and subscribing to my channel. Its you guys that inspire me and motivate me. Now git back to work!🤣
Respect for you man. Just found you and went to your 1st video. Keep it up.
Much appreciated Scotty. I see you doing your thing as well🤘 keep it up 💯
I’ve been welding since I was in high school (93). Most of my construction career I’ve been a certified fracture critical welder until I moved in to management about 10 years ago. I do have a welding side hustle just to support my bow hunting habits. I have a portable welder and I just bought the Vulcan 220 and it is a very good welder no regrets. I also have a 2001 f350 with the 7.3 I bought new. It is my go to truck. I prefer driving it over my good truck. I would definitely say you have good equipment and are headed in the right direction. Keep your head up and you will do fine 👍
My welding truck is a 2008 Ford ranger 2wd standard w/a 2.0 L. A 225A holbart on back with boxes on board for tools and cables. With air bags,a very capable vehicle, with only 80 thousand kilometers. All my other welders are Lincoln. Except my tig.
Very nice trucks are where it's at. Eventually you should upgrade to a bigger rig
@@DannyWeldz for a farm truck,fixing equipment, fence, almost anything that can break ,can get it done. Been using it since 2011 ,doesn't owe me anything.
@@df9969 can't complain🤟
Very informative, I like how you broke down what's needed to get started. Maybe you can share how you got up-to-speed on your welding knowledge, tips on how we can get educated, and share some footage of your finished projects?
I'll definitely have more videos of that coming soon. As far as finished products go, check out my website www.dannywelds.com and subscribe to this channel for more welding videos. I'll try to drop some knowledge on you guys but I'm better just showing you 😁
I like the video, great message.
I know it’s a year old. But great video. I agree, you have to look the part when starting. All you have is your word and equipment when starting.
I really appreciate your comment on my second video. It means a lot to me. Like and subscribe if you haven't already. I'm going to start uploading more videos this week. It's been a while
I subscribed. Everything I need to know to start my business is the exact series I need
Perfect video to me….thank you for the information
Hey I like how you kept your message “real”.
Thanks for your feedback. This is like the second video I ever made. Very nervous. Thanks for subscribing as well. More content on the way. Let me know if there's videos you'd like me to make 😁
I ran a full 1 pound spool just padding beads on a 1/4 plate with the mig max 215 and never hit duty cycle on 110. Some of those Vulcan machines are seriously underrated.
I agree this Vulcan built my business 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for this video brother. It is my goal to get where you are at!
Let me know if you need advice or have questions
You should have way more subscribers. Great content man
Bro I been slacking. But thank you. And yeah I agree but yeah it's on me. Been working and too lazy to record. You woke me up though. I'm gonna start slinging this content. ThankS brother✊️
Thanks for the great information
I second the 220 Vulcan is a great unit
You have one? How fo you like it? What needs work?
I’d like to see the cord you made to run the Vulcan I have the same welder and would like to get the Vulcan eventually
Ya ain't goin nowhere in life, by standing in line for your check. Be good enough at what you do, to be your own boss. Most important, is to know all the newest technology and how to make it do the work for you.
I definitely agree. Thanks for commenting on the video. Like and subscribe if you haven't already 🙏
For the price of a hercules you might as well get dewalt grinders, ive been gathering tools for a mobile welding repair business and im taking my sweet ass time gathering quality tools and more experience and from what ive learned, buy once cry once
For the abuse I put it through I feel it's more logical to get a harbor frieght grinder because I could buss em up and return with 0 hassle. Dewalt is superior in performance however
@@DannyWeldz thats exactly what i thought and it makes perfect sense and i went that very exact route but bro trust me an internet stranger, the difference between trying one out a bit and buying and using for everyday jobs is huuuuge, and that can be with any brand name tool, i barely have anything in terms of cash and my next purchase is a metabo grinder because i felt tge difference and quality when i used a dewalt instead of harbor freight so i can imagine metabo vs dewalt
@@jackmioff000 i have a dewalt angle grinder that ive been using for like 3 years now, i would have gone through like 6 cheap grinders in that time probably lol
@@russellphillips4979 I've got a $14 hf grinder for around 7 years now sucker wont quit I also have a cordless dewalt for around 5 years I did have a battery die grinder still is strong also have a corded Makita its pretty much new and is my back up also nice when your on a big job to have one grinder setup for cutting and one for grinding or flap disk
Dewalt are good but very noisy. Makita are by far better than most, I've got 6 of them ,I do have a 4.5in dewalt,is more noisy than my 7 in makita.
Good video, man. Real straight toward for those wanting to make that leap. Welder/generator, cutting, measuring, level, square, etc. good stuff.
I will say as long as the payload is there a gasser Ford 6.2 (2011-2016) F250 or Chevy 6.0 (2011-2019) 2500HD may have lower up front and long term costs than a diesel for a lot of folks, especially us up here in the cold north or those not towing a camper behind their rig along with all those tools.
Keep the videos rolling man. Don’t worry about the haters! If they don’t like the pacing they can close their eyes and listen to the good advice :) cheers!
Oh yes for sure definitely. My point was that you don't wanna do this in a honda CRV or something not rated for work....don't get me wrong any means necessary I'm sure it will work.
I appreciate your comments bro. Thanks for interacting with me and watching my videos. It motivates me to make more content. 0lease be sure to subscribe if you haven't already 🤟
@@DannyWeldz Definitely good to look the part and BE the part! Good stuff!
Very good video and excellent message. I subscribed and hope you are very successful.
So far so good we ate hitting a real critical point where I will be getting a shop and hiring. Started this business homeless. We're getting there💪 thank you for your support🙏
Ive been wanting to go from the 140 titanium multiprocessor to the omnipro 220 haha. I have a bunch of the stuff he is recommending plus more. I do the bauer route. I do need to buy the 1/2 inch high torque impact. I have the 3/8 one but it doesnt help on hard stuff. I started with the 301 piece pittaburg set but going to upgrade to icon stuff in the future.
It's a good start. I will say I highly recommend the omni pro and still use it heavily to this day. I have a lincoln active 8x welder but omnipro performs just as good for a fraction of the price
Great video
Subscribed man. Where in New England are you? I'm in NH. I work in a shop now but thinking of getting into mobile for side gigs. Excited to watch you work,
I'm located in New london CT and yeah I'm raw dogging this full time. It gets slow but if you charge correctly and put money into marketing you'll be golden. Also it's the Google reviews that help
Very good informations.keep up the good work.greetings from a Romanian welder.
Greetings brother🙏 thank you for communicating with me. I really appreciate that. Hope all is well. Please stay healthy and work safely out there. Our trade is dangerous
Keep at it bro it’s not easy out here my other thing is net work some will
Some will not
For sure I contacted all my competitors and made sure they know who I am what I'm doing where I'm doing it and that there's enough work for all of us to eat💪
Hi Danny my name is Rico my friend the 220v on your welder is only 15 amps if you definitely want real power drill a hole on the welder and install a 6-50 you need to coneact the wires inside that way you will get 27amps at 220 and not just 15 amps I did it on my machine I have exactly the same machine and I'm getting full power at 27 amps 220v you will definitely see the difference it will weld like a champ thanks and good luck my friend
I have since upgraded to a ranger 330mpx but I appreciate the advice. I have a lincoln sa300 classic, It sounds like I may have to do that mod to that welder
@@DannyWeldz don't do it to the classic the Lincoln 300 classic is only 3000 watt no matter you will only get about 17 amps at 220v to power a small mig you need around 21 amps at 220 about 5000+ Watts and the Lincoln 300 classic is only 3000 watts 👍
You the man. 💪 I think I'm just going to by an LN-25 wire feeder. Was considering 220 for a smaller welder
Thanks for the info. Subscribe to my channel if you haven't already 🤟
Where do you get the parts for it?
Parts for what?
@@DannyWeldz for that old ass welder that you replaced!
@@herbertherbomoore415 🤣 honestly I had luck with Facebook marketplace and people have reached out to me in my area that seen the video and I am in the process of negotiating with them. He has the same welder but it don't weld. Engine is good though. And he just got a new ranger 330mpx. I'm going to make an episode of it. Stay tuned bro 🤘
Is that power stroke still down?
It's in the shop
What year make truck is it and does it come with everything needed to run welding box and machine for mobile welding
It's an 2001 f350 7.3 powerstroke. It just came with utility body. I bought and installed everything else
Oh okay I'm looking Into starting mobile welding on my own if you don't mind give me heads up on what I need to do I've been welding on and off for about 12 years now I am located in VA state. What do I need to do for starters of course get one of those rigs lol.
@@dtynes6255 hang tight I'll be making a video shortly I see you subscribed hit that notification bell. Give me about a week
@@DannyWeldz right on keep me updated oh and hey you think a f150 for starters would run and hold weld machine and generator for mobile welding?
me on my honda civic 😶
😅
Gotta start somewhere 🤷♂️ work up to a rig 💪
Dc
🙏🏾‼💥 ig: @weldronin respect sir
You have a youtube channel? I'll sub for a sub
Oh Most deff, following now ✊
You on yputube?
STOP walking!
Couldn't. This was my second or 3rd video. I was nervous
@@DannyWeldz I pace too, my guy. I knew exactly what was going on. I think better when I pace. I can't hardly be on the phone without doing something physically. Lol.
@@ProleDaddy thanks for understanding. I have since gotten better and kept the pacing in mind. ✊💯
