Just came across your channel while watching jimbos garage and I'm surprised I've never seen you before on TH-cam. But anyway I love you videos man. I actually live in oklahoma city and it feels really good to see someone representing not only our state but our city also! Keep up the amazing work man. You are a true inspiration!
Wow, that's great to know! The sign came out great!
When I weld studs, I usually spray some soapy water onto the welding spot. This way I get a very clean weld without any slag sticking on the sheet.
Looked at the TruWeld products and they have some really cool stuff! Love that stud welder for sure. Game changer.
I now want a stud welder; love the video, thanks for sharing!
Love your work!
Nice video production. I just got a magnetic that my friend’s company was throwing out. Great idea.
Just got a 6x6 magnetic chuck. I've only used it one day and I absolutely love the effing thing. You're right: makes things so much easier.
Total game changer. It's not even a sponsored thing and I don't care, people need to know about them. I finally caved and bought the 10x20. Expensive, but pays for itself quickly in time saved
Amazing, very easy when you watch 👍
Nice work Richard!
A stud welding nuts. Wow. I think I saw now everything.
That's a machine worth it's weight in studs...cool sign build for a couple of cool guys..
Ha, that many studs might cost as much as the box,but it's still worth it
Slip a bit of tubing (plastic, aluminum, whatever...) over the stud and there wouldn't be a need to tack weld the nuuhh... ummm... hexagonal fasteners. Adds a bit of stability and cleans up the looks as well.
I came. I saw. I subscribed.
Snap thought the same and done the same subscribed lol
👍👍👍😜🏴😁✌️
Snap my thoughts exactly done same watched and subscribed lol
👍👍👍😁🏴😜✌️
I thought you were talking about a body mans stud welder so was thinking wth? great video.
I wish I had kept a couple of stud welders from back in my stud welder sales days, but I didn’t. It’s an investment for sure but for a sign business a huge time saver.
Amen
Hey there, I just stumbled across your channel at the end of last week and am loving all the videos so far (I’m currently working my way from oldest to newest ). I’m not a metal worker at all, but your videos and manner have filled me with the confidence and kick up the a**e I needed to take the plunge and take some welding lessons from a local guy to me here in the UK.
Being a stay at home dad to my little boy, this could be the ideal time to learn to weld and then spend my evenings practising, then when he gets to school age maybe I’d be decent enough to start trying to make signs and other small projects like fire pits and the like. Fingers crossed, it could be a great way to make some cash part time around my little one as he gets older.
Also, I’ve subbed to you on Patreon too. Only at the lowest level i’m afraid at the moment as money is pretty tight for us right now. (Especially if I “need” to buy a welder soon to practise!)
Thanks for all the great content and regular uploads too! :o)
Thank you for the support. Enjoy the archive and watching me lose 60lbs. Self employment is great for stay at home parents!
that is the best voice over work by a welder i have ever seen/heard !
Thanks?
@@42Fab the first part with you standing over the sign was voiced over right? was a complement btw
@@zednott yeah, I took out as one
another excellent video, thak you
Pipe or tube as a spacer could also be an option to tighten the nut up to instead of the spot weld (if that makes sense).
Definitely, but cutting them sucks. Many ways to crack an egg, eh?
Great content man!
Thanks
Use the stainless steel studs. Outdoors, the mild steel studs will eventually rust and will stain your signs. I use an old AGM JS-1 CD stud welder I nabbed for $1k on ebay, and it works great.
For laying out the holes, get a roll of kraft paper or piece of flat corrugate, layout your studded letters before you paint them stud-side-down, and then spray some spray paint over the studs. Then the paper will be a template for drilling your holes in the base sheet.
after watching video picked up magnetic chuck, wish i knew about them a long time ago. thanks
Me too
Me three
Nice!
That ending voice over is 👍👍👍
I tried
I want to start making signs so I can have a reason to buy that stud welder
I would have taken a short length of copper tubing or even steel pipe that was slightly larger than the stud and used it is a spacer and secured it with the nut from the back side then you wouldn't see any threaded stud and the letters would still be removable.
we've done similar before, the time to make a lot of spacers all the same length wasn't worth it to me.
great work and results. Try to sell them some LED backlights behind the letters :)
It will eventually be lit, just in a different way, as part of a larger project
Hi Richard,
Just wondering if you ever do any reviews on the cordless tools you have? Also wondering how you built the setup for your bandsaw.
I haven't, but maybe I should. The band saw mount is just scrap tacked together
Where can i get a Tommy and how much are they ? would be soooo handy for when i need a lift 😁
I've caught up with enuf vids to confirm that you are well worth subbing to 👍
Cheers to Ella for beating the rust, at least she doesnt have to worry about bald spots in the beard 😁
Looks great! I remember seeing those sitting on your bench. Do you need a stud welder though if you are a stud welder? Ba dum.
Tiss
The guy even does his own ADR! hahaha
8/10 Would Dub Outro Again.
i weld alot of stainless studs on stainless steel. i need to weld some non stainless studs to the floor of my 68 pontiac to hold my new 68 bucket seats in place. first i dont have any non stainless studs. what do i use? will it hold to a floor pan?
You can weld stainless to mild steel all day.
Great Videos. What CNC machine are you using and what software do you reccomend? Thank you
It's a shop fabricobbled plasma table. I'm a sheetcam/mach3 guy
@@42Fab - thank you for such a fast reply :)
What do you think about getting a sand or soda blasting cabinet and or bigger machine instead of using that acid? In my experience, there is nothing like sand or soda blasting to prep parts for paint and/or powder coating.
It's just a matter of space I don't have. My powder coater blasts before powder
@@42Fab : Well dang. If he does it then you have the best of both worlds.
Cortan steel is what my shipping container is made with, has a strange smell when welding.
What is the best place online to buy the studs for a stud welding machine? Thanks
I haven't found a good place yet
Блин мужики вы мои мастера красавы
How does your cutter compare to the hyperthem 45xp? If you had to buy the stud welder, could you justify the ~$3K price tag?
The 875 SC is a 45 amp machine, but with, as far as I am aware and in my experience, a Higher duty cycle that the 45xp. Consumables are cheaper, but it lacks as refined of a fine cutting setup as the hypertherm.
The stud welder? Absolutely, there are now models that run less though if you're only needing up to 1/4" studs, as I do.
The intro and outro remind me of Kung Fu movies. :D
Is this at the new Frida place?
Yep
Hey I noticed you didn't nest the vectors to save on material ?
6:01 should explain why.
@@42Fab yeah did see that ... but surely there's more than one way to make a stencil? I suppose simplicity to "get the job done in a timely manor" is a consideration too . Time is money !! :)
It's 100% about time.
What stud welder are you using?
Truweldstudwelding.com tw-i321
Nice job but I don't get the rusty metal
Its system, it's a look
You may be a stud welder, but you are married now.
Cor-ten is great to work with. images.app.goo.gl/LcFbp52t6dXs5iap6 That's a tall ship we made out of it for a roundabout
Don’t forget to warn your jumpy friends that the stud welder sound like a gunshot going off. Am I right lol
Close for sure
For just a dollar a day you can help get this man some gloves
Why would that stud welder require a price quote. Just post the damn price! Hate companies that do that.
In industry that's just the way it is. I agree though
Have a shop full of tools and have never had to ask for a price quote on any tool. These boys just aren't interested in selling them.
@@photonashville they sell through distributors, your quote request will be answered by one of them. It's a fast process, they're a good, made in America company. Lots of industrial tools are RFQ unless you go right to a distributor.
Best welder for signs is Lynx 4 Modular and runs approx. $3200 for a brand new one. It will let you weld studs on up-to 5/16” thick metal. There you go, no RFQ needed! Disclaimer: welding studs not included!
Sound dubbing is the worst lol.
Nice!
