Nothing like the sound of a welder with the proper settings.
Matt, I have a very good tip for you. Buy a good clear face shield. Those thin cut off discs are no joke my friend. it's not a matter of if one will shatter it's WHEN! I'd like to hear some other posters chime in on this. This is a very important safety necessity when using thin cut off wheels. Heavy work gloves are a must for those as well.
How you flipped the trailer at the end was fantastic mate! Awesome idea man!
My back hurts just watching you. You have so many talents. Looks good.
This guy thought process is amazing. I would have never thought to put it on that pivot point to flip the trailer around, to make welding easier on yourself. Hands down phenomenal.
True Northern engineering. Nice job...
thanks!
You never cease to amaze me, Matt!! Almost as adept with metal as you are with wood.....and I think that's probably only a matter of time!! Really enjoying the trailer build. Take care! :-)
Almost :D
Uzbekistan Hello
Aaah, the wonderful world of rotisserie welding. Makes life so much easier.
I know this series is a old and you've probably heard this before by now, but a little tip (I fit and weld structural stuff for a living) when you're coping anything like channel, beams, tube, anything, to fit inside another like you're doing at 2:14, round off the inside corners of the cope. When you have a sharp 90 degree corner like that you're much more prone to cracking, even if theyre fully welded. Especially so on something like this that's sees a lot of load cycling, impacts, and vibration. I wouldn't be surprised if now that it's been 3 years since you've built this you had a crack or two in that joint
Cool great rotisserie idea!!!
thanks!
"Welcome to Cooking with Cremona! Today we're fabricobbeling something for next episode: a dinosaur rotisserie thingumajig !!! :D
Well, the wind won't take it away at least!!!
hahahahahaha
Has someone been watching AvE?
@@timothyball3144 Well ... ummm ... a little maybe?
OK OK OK !!! I'm addicted hahaha! But he's the best AvE I know of so I'm proud of it! :D
Building one hell of a beast of a trailer, awesome
This was very interesting....
I didnt get how you were going to spin the trailer? You are a very creative guy & I'm loving how you show us every step!
Merry Christmas & STAY SAFE
Thanks!!
*Check the "Trailer Rotisserie" video, StihlBorn, you will love it: **th-cam.com/video/QRRaZSh5Ur8/w-d-xo.html*
Great series - Thanks 😊‼️
Wow... That spin set-up is genius! Can't wait for the next video!!!
Great work! Thanks for taking the time to make, film, edit and share.
Always interesting, thanks matt.MERRY CHRISTMAS ! have a blessed year.
Thank you for sharing your amazing journey, merry Christmas, God bless you and your family
I am SO jealous of your tools!
lovin this build Matt....
Awesome build.
Excellent job
Great idea to spin it around.
Hi Matt I hope you and the family have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Matt, your imagination and ingenuity are inspirational. Your welding skills are so much greater than mine that it isn't even funny. Thanks for sharing this project with us!
Matt you're a MIG Welding genius!
Now that's a really good idea .well done ,
Great job on the trailer Matt! it's coming along nicely :) Thank you For sharing the video with us💖👌👍😎JP
Very nice trailer and well explained by telling us what your doing.
Looking good
Great trailer build, Mathew !
If you keep it in this setup you can use it as a giant rotisserie, for buffalo or something.
Hey Matthew, great videos, thanks!
Thanks for sharing that
Thanks for sharing
Merry Christmas to you and your family & keep creating your stuff the way you like. If you want it do be done good or the way you want it, you got to do it yourself.
Also, everything can be learned (if you want to)
Sure the world need people like you life become easy.you really think big share and you will be given more be blessed
Nice Work.
Worked for an outfit at sold Refrigiwear 50 years ago. Glad to see it is still relevant and has been updated from the old green it use to come in. Pretty slick way of rotating that huge frame.
Betting drilling on the Bridgeport is a heck of a lot easier than the drill press. Thank for the video.
i was a welder for the railroad out here in wyoming and EVERYTHING we welded was GMAW (mig w/ gas). can be as strong if done correctly.
Refridgiwear is awesome. Have one of the same jackets and you keep plenty warm
Your next project should be building a submarine to use on Lake Minnetonka.
Good idea with the roll over jig, gotta evenly distribute that weld heat!
Looking Good
Cheers
I personally like a chain tube for safety chain mounts, i.e. 2inch pipe or tube bent into a radius, then cut a hole in each 50 degree frame tube on center. Put tube thru both tubes and weld all 4 sides at tubes. Tempered chain goes thru. 1/2 inch bolt thru on center to hold chain on center.
This way you arent compromising chain temper by welding, as well as not counting on shear strength of welded mounts for chain.
Chain tube is integral part of frame, chain goes thru. If hitch gets loose from vehicle then it is the best connection, no compromise of strength.
Dont forget, ALWAYS criss cross chains under tongue so the chains cradle the trailer securely and keep it pulling on center.
Fabulous fab job Matt !!
I like your skills .... People just try to find a way you can make one 😂
Matt, you never cease to amaze me, you remind me of my son. He is always working on something (he loves working on his race car), he built a nice cabin home on the lake side from an old 1930 chicken coupe, remodeled and old farmhouse that he is living in, rewired it, with a little help from friends and family.. I don't know where he gets all his knowledge to do what he does without going to college and you are such a hard worker and enjoy what you do. Keep up your great work and dream. Have a Blessed Merry Christmas with your family. God Bless
Enjoying the video and wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy and healthy and prosperous New Year!
Thanks Jim! You too!
Nice work. I enjoy moving big things too, when people ask how I did it, I tell them I used my brain.
Great video and Merry Christmas!
Those leaf springs look so small in comparison to the rest of the trailer. Made me look up some images to compare.
As many said. Good job! Both on the work, and the presentation.
I hope to get a welder this spring and start experimenting.
Hey Matthew that's some serious Trailer Dude loving your videos and can hardly wait until the next installment of the Awesome Trailer really amazing have a good day 😁😁
thanks!
Looks good Mathew. You are doing a great job around there. Thanks for sharing with us, really enjoying the trailer build.
Thank you!
From an old pipeline welder, and welding foreman, Nice job! I like the fact that you tack with MIG, but weldout with Stick. Looks like E7018, and very well done at that.
Looking good! Great video!
Nice stands. I used to use a larger, heavier version of something similar when I first began welding semi-trailer frames. an inverted angle iron with 2 pieces of flat bar welded across work well for a top clamp. you can weld 2 studs vertically that project upward through the flat bar, along with large washers and grade 8 nuts to snug the turning "pin" down so it doesn't move on you while you are welding as well. Nice work.
Just earned a subscriber with the rotisserie. I love it!!!
🙌
Looks great. I'm looking forward in seeing your new log arch design.
thanks Joe!
As the guy on the infomercial says "Set it and forget it" with Cremona's rotisserie welding jig.
Looking great Mr C!
Thanks!
Hello Mr Matt, probably the best trailer building video on you tube yet. Being able to pivot the trailer single handed is where you won me over.
Very impressive and you certainly work smart. I also like the drill shavings extraction. Points for overall smart working and safety. Thanks again.
Thank you!
Your welding skills are definitely building. Great job Matt.
Thank you!
fantastic - your welds look great - impressed by your metal skills/tools, and the engineering behind all of this! wow
Thanks!
coldest it gets here in melbourne Australia is around 6 degrees celsius but yesterday was 41 we don’t know what cold is. All the best to you and yours for xmas new year
Sounds toasty 😄
thank you to let me steel of your ideas for my business very creative from south Africa
Love your videos, your stick welding looks as good as tig welding, very impressed.
Thanks!
Wow, I can't stick weld to save my life, I work to make everything that I can be welded with solid wire. I need to force myself to do more stick just like you are doing with MIG on your stands. Great work.
your trailer will last forever with this
materials......
Im really enjoying watching u weld . I made a trailer for my bobcat and at the end of project i wished i would had just bought one material was expensive 😂
Subscribed solely because of well you stick weld
good to see a bit of old stick
for being a wood worker you sure do lay down some nice looking welds :) Happy Holidays
I'm stealing your idea for flipping the trailer over! I've been trying to figure out how to flip a trailer over for my own build and this solves it in a clever way :)
Matt, I bought a Refrigiwear jacket last January when I was in Omaha with a blue jean jacket with hoodie underneath as my jacket, who does that you ask? a Georgia boy who thought winter in Omaha could not be very cold (-8 plus wind chill). Coldest place on the planet. Love the trailer build.
Merry Christmas Matt. Glad you are keeping warm.
My memories of living in MN are Winter and Road Repair being the two seasons.
Trailer is looking great. You are a perfectionist and that trait will pay huge dividend later on.
Looking forward to the continuation of this build.
Thanks for sharing.
Winter and road repair! Haha! Gonna use that! 😇😎
AWESOME makeshift rotisserie!
Your attitude coupled with your many skills makes this a very interesting channel. I never tire of seeing what you're up to.
Thank you!
Nice welds!
I seen you welding mig from bottom to top. I was taught to weld mig top to bottom and Flux from bottom to top. I welded pipe and plate that way in school and successfully bent out everything I've ever tested. Your stick work looks great.
Nice job. You must have very forgiving neighbors allowing you to run your operation in a residential neighborhood.
Enjoying this trailer build Mat.
thanks!
Liked for the string trick
When my grandfather taught me to build trailers, he gave me the rule of thumb that the centerline of the middle hanger (or axle if it was single axle) was the centerline of the bed, plus one inch for every foot long the bed was towards the back, plus 1/8" on the passenger side to give a tiny bit of steer towards the right.
I questioned him about it later, and he told me the real formula was centerline of the bed plus (tow rating of the vehicle) / (combined axle load rating), x (length of the bed in inches) to the back, plus the 1/8" on the passenger side. This would ensure if you centered the weight of the load directly over the centerline of the bed, the appropriate amount of weight would be on the hitch.
His trailers weren't always perfect, but you could expect them to be loaded to the max of the axles and still pull like a dream. He could park a freshly painted trailer by the road and expect a cash offer from a local business in just a few days, and more than once had a bidding war going on.
Great welding job. Good idea on a weep hole for water drainage out of the tube but you should oblong your drain hole as water will not "weep"from a round hole. Been a welder/fabricator in the mining industry for 30 +years by the way
Impressive Matt. Merry Christmas.
thank you Matt very clever on the stand . heads up on the mill and saw get at least a mister for coolant your blades will last longer and you have less chance of work Harding the steel . ( 10 yrs a machinists )
Very Impressive skills. I am a woodworker, but your metal working skills make me fantasize that I could do it too--hah, likely not!
Keep up the good work.
Man, I wish I could get some of the logs that you have salvaged, those I could work with!
Well done Matt! I have to say, I'm pretty impressed with your welding plan! Very efficient, you know when to go from MIG to Stick and looks like you do well with both! One of my welding buddies/mentors used to remind me...You take something on the road, all of sudden shit just got REAL and you have to really pay attention! (Liability for one thing...) . But it really looks like you got everything handled and considered. Love the blocking to distribute the log weight too! Rotisserie was a HUGE idea for a single person operation...get you some of that Matt! Nice! :)
crazy crazy woodworking guys - prefer stick over mig! lol... nice build! :)
Great job on everything Matt. You have a very well equipped shop and the knowledge to use it. I have a Lincoln MP210 also. Great MIG and Stick welder for sure
Thanks!
regards from Malta. I am sure you have family here in Malta, nice to see your vids.
Great video.
thanks!
You are doing g a great job on building your trailer
Thanks!
awesome fabricating skills, sir. I'm weldy jelly! Mattastic job =]
I'd say your more than qualified to build a trailer and seem to have all the right tools. Excellent work! I thought it was going to be much heavier as it sits than 1100 lbs 1/4 box channel seems way stronger than most of the trailers I'm looking at and there weighing around 3K need 14K trailer considering building one but seeing a lot of thought needs to go into it
Good job bro. Gotta love the woodworking n metal fabrication side i heard u say your kinda new to the mig i have the Lincoln 210 to love it but i learned it to work best pushin the puddle not draggin n so after u select ur thickness n its presect paramiters turn the volts up alittle more n wire down alittle n dude she will lay right down in a stack of dines for u keep up good work🥳😎🙏
Looking good! 😃👍🏻👊🏻 .... The trailer ain't too shabby either!
Hahaha thanks Fred!
muito bom seu trabalho parabéns
Good video! 👍😊
thanks!
Matt, I wouldn't mind having some of that 2x2 1/4 12 foot scrap angle iron!! lol
lol that's actually 3x3 :D
