Just have to point out how this was Christmas Eve and as a independent welder building a company in new place you just get it done and that’s how word gets around, good job brother. Merry Christmas and happy new year to all
Absolutely you do what you have to do to gain clients, all my work is word of mouth it's hard the first year or two but once your work starts speaking for itself you're in good shape 👍
Everything I do is word of mouth I do the same thing I go out any time any place to fix things from my family to yours merry Christmas and have a great new years I hope to meet you out on the some time
Nice video. I really appreciate how you were willing to help a working man out on Christmas Eve. I'm sure you weren't cheap based on the emergency nature of the call, but at least you did it. How many other guys would have left him stranded and not bothered. Kudos!
Man that place looks like Paradise, what a view. Great job, sad to see crap products manufactured there too, that's an every day thing here. Happy new year, hope 2023 brings great thing for you
I did a trailer like that the other day big 20 some foot camper trailer. Was on a 7 percent grade when both axels came off. Had to close the road and get the axels back on it to move it. Customer is in a class action lawsuit with the manufacturer now because of it.
@@MeltinMetalAnthony yea I felt terrible for them they were all the way from Florida to California with the whole family. Brand new rv too. But we got them all fixed up and back on the road so they were good to go.
Really enjoying your vids I'm a mech engineer but with overtime starting to dry up I'm looking at doing welding on the side I can already weld but your thought process for your repairs is great knowledge luckily I already weld at -45c so I started at the hard end of welding 🤣
Get it rookie. You're making us welders who work holidays proud. You'll always remember when you welded drunk all night after taking the phone call no one else did.
In my experience with Flux core I run a size bigger on the tip than the wire so it helps eliminate that welding to itself It sometimes works on aluminum spool guns as well
I had the same issue with wire feeding and was told to use tip one size bigger than the wire and wire tension to be minimal as possible and wire roll tension not too tight. Once i done all this never had the problem again.
I just watched the generator hitch install, and I swear you can see the frame already bowed in some of the shots. Is 16 gauge really allowed by the DOT on a dual axle box trailer? You’re a BEAST for taking on these jobs, huge respect.
TH-cam hasn't been sending me notifications again. Good job on that trailer young man. Badly built and dangerous with it. Luckily your customer and or anyone didn't get injured considering what was wrong with the trailer.
Anthony, Bro! Listen to me! Go to Home Depot and order the corded, millwaukee, metal cutting saw and a diablo, CERMET blade. You're banging your head against the wall using cut off discs . You can also do expanded metal --no hop in the cut. Buy that thing!
Had a hanger come off my box trailer - they only welded one side - you went out of the fire into an icebox (your move) - appreciate the way you fixed that and good catch on those axles
*Facinating video. I put on a coat just watching. Help me out on why manufacturer would cut a slot in both axles? Were they trying to make a backyard alignment fix and never went back and sewed it back up?*
Not wanting to put too much heat into the piece and thereby weakening it, is a good call. Its also the reason why you don't weld horizontally across the bottom of the frame when attaching the spring hangers. Longitudinal welds only, along the length of the frame. The added heat (in the heat affected zone) horizontally will all but guarantee the frame to tear around that bracket. Especially when youre only dealing with 16ga to begin with.
hey Anthony I'm kinda late but I build trailers for school (Out of 1/4" material not 16 gauge) and we do everything ourselves including wiring, I just wanted to let you know there usually is only a brake wire on one side because theres actually a wire that runs through the axle that connects to the other side
daaamn. 1/4 is OVERKILL. I built a trailer on 2 axles using 1/8 and 3/16 for crossmembers (because i got it real cheap). 1/4 is for some real serious weight. Real expensive as well compared to 1/8 and 3/16. What are the trailers for?
@@davidmuller1958We build them for show and take them to different fairs and rodeos(Houston rodeo, Fort worth, san Antonio, Austin, and a lot others). The reason we go with 1/4 is 1.) It's easier to weld and we don't have to worry about burning through. It is also better because it doesn't warp as much while welding and cutting with the torch 2.) Because they're for show we have to compete with others so quality is a big factor and 1/4 will almost always beat a thinner metal as long as you build it good 3.) The sponsors understand that it's a little bit more expensive but they know it is going to last a lot longer than any trailer they buy from a store. Also in our area a stick of 1/4 is only about $10-15 more than 3/16. 4.) For a 6x12 that we build, they weigh about 900-1000lbs so it's not like you're maxing out the axles just with the trailer weight. We are building a 6x10 right now out of 3/16 and so far we have had nothing but issues with the metal warping and bending. Basically we build them heavy to compete at show and to make it last a lot longer for our sponsors
Great video. Not trying to trash your repair, but as a old body & fender guy (25 yr's experience) what you may wish to consider, if facing a similar repair, is to add / allow for some 3/8 to 1/2" inch Diameter (i.e., round) PLUG welds (mid height on the side's) maybe every 4 to 6 inches, to help distribute the "Structural Load Factor." I would weld say the left sides of the holes first, (Left and Right side Rail's) than come back and do the right sides to keep the heat factor to a minimum. Good catch on the manufacture not repairing the axle seats that were moved / readjusted, on the axle housing. You saved some lives catching that, no doubt about it.
Dammit man sure glad you found the other problems and took care of them. A lot of guys would blow them off and go home. Hope you have have a good 2023.
Tip for flux so that you don’t burn through contact tips as much get nozzle Gell it helps so much and make sure your on the correct polarity I have a multi process machine and sometimes I’ll forget to change the polarity and it’ll spatter shit everywhere
After seeing him roll around under the trailer on that creeper, it reminded me when I had long hair, and my hair would get pulled, wrapped and stuck in those creeper wheels…needless to say, I invented several new cuss words.
Nice job man! That's why I'm old school I like stick welding you never have any problems like you do with those wire feeders an plus as you know you get more penetration with stick welding.
@@donsmith9081 I believe you're right to some degree but every case is different. If you're out in the field with a wire feed an it's windy you're not gonna be using it all the shielding gas blows away.
I did try for a minute but I was so out of position that I blew through. Even running my Lincoln at 65 amp and low OCV I definitely could have if I had better position
@@amos4457 There are different types of wire. MIG welding requires gas and is a solid wire. FCAW or flux core arc welding does not require gas and is usually used in commercial structural steel welding.
@@donsmith9081 structural fcaw wire could not be used on 16 ga or 3/16ths. some dual shield will work on thinner stuff. he is likely using e71t11-gs which is made for thin galvanized sheet metal frames with a two pass maximum
Keep that whip straight and it won’t happen , it tends to do that when your whip is not straight so the wire hits the tip at an angle and when it arcs it melts it on the tip
Bro my dual shield flux core keeps jamming up as well shit pisses me off but I think it’s because I need to run higher volts but new contact tips definitely help
Do you not have a cut off saw/chop saw? I'm just wondering why you'd use a 4 1/2 angle grinder instead of running a 14in saw. The abrasive disc's are pretty cheap, and last awhile. Not to mention the time it saves.
Are you using a knurled drive roller? Wonder if that'd help prevent the birds nesting. I have a little HF 125A inverter machine and haven't had any problems with feeding flux core. Supposedly the v-shaped rollers distort the wire.
Happy New Year to you both for pushing through it all! 1? What brand is the trailer so everyone knows who not to buy from. Inquiring Minds Want To Know.🤔🤔Good Job preheating before you weld on frozen 🥶🥶metals. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
man going from sunny Florida to Montana. Both have their beauty but that cold.... I don't know. The flux core I'm assuming you were using the knurled v groove wheel. Great video, I felt the cold
That's unfortunately the pains of fluxcore on those smaller tips they foul more easily more heat and no gas but check the liner if it's a little short to the end it has opportunity to jam easily but I've always had Hobart flux jam on me too. But a good upgrade is the Primeweld mig180 tweco tips same torch ish a better welder and way better warranty and support if you need it plus cost wise you could go online get another torch that uses the beefier tips to fight that heat and still come out ahead.
One of my first jobs was exactly this but the hanger ripped a big piece off the trailer frame and it was In the opposite conditions. Middle of arizona summer on the hottest days of 2021 with no shade and the trailer was on a dirt incline so there was such little space I couldn't see what I was grinding and barely what I was welding and took all day and close calls with heat exhaustion but I literally finished up the job when my generator ran out of gasoline and my truck was basically dry also and I was literally dead broke so thankfully I finished when it died and the guy proceeded to not pay me for no reason other than he just felt that he shouldn't have to pay me knowing full well I didn't have money or gas and lived an hour and a half away lol
Real life welding repairs in the field are full of compromises. The textbook welders should just stay in the comfort of a shop… be nice about critical comments.
Exactly what I was thinking. I watch tons of videos on “the right way” yet I’m NEVER in a right way situation like in the videos. So glad Anthony shows these situations. Not that he didn’t do anything the right way.
Nice work on the repairs guys! It is appalling what the manufacturer of that trailer gets away with! 16 ga? Seriously? And cutting into those axels and then leaving them to crack is just criminal! Happy New Year Anthony!
What thickness wire are you using? And what tip I was always taught that you go .2mm above in tip size for the wire to expand when it heats up, love your videos man keep it up
I heard that in architecture of highways and bridges they breath sorta like accordions do you think thats helpful in welding? Or is that a stupid question?
@@MeltinMetalAnthony Yes, a kinked liner will do it. Keeping machine far enough away where liner is relatively straight helps a lot too. Years ago the company I worked for bought me a brand new LN-25 for a big stainless job. After I got it dialed in, it kept burning back. After I sprayed anti-spatter on actual wire it ran flawlessly-it must have acted like a lubricant. I don't think I would do it on an FCAW wire though.
How did the owner find the problem. He got lucky they stayed under the trailer. I have been thinking of getting the cordless Dewalt torpedo heater. Is it really that good?
One thing ive been noticing with cutting wheels. The 4 1/2” wheels are hot garbage, all of them. I have switched to using 6” wheels anytime I can. They seem to be made alot better and last a ton longer.
Thank you for the super helpful videos. I am looking for liability insurance, (just starting out on my own) but cant find any insurance company willing to insure welders. Any suggestion for company's in the south east (Kentucky)?
I've worked at a dozen trailer shops in Elkhart where that's probably from.. They knock out 40+ a day, so much quality is ignored because most of us welders are on rate...
The manufacturer of that trailer should probably be liable for the defective product. Surprised they can get away with making something that dangerous to go down hi-way
Hey buddy, I'm a bid fan of your channel and have learned a lot from you. I use E71T- 11 flux core a good bit on home projects. What flux core are you using if you don't mind me asking? I can't wait to see your next show and keep up the good work.

Just a suggestion, I might look at adding a gusset just ahead of where the 3/16 plate ends… might help prevent a crack from forming
curved end plates are a great idea when reinforcing.....stress is distributed more widely
I’d put gussets on the 2 centre perches

Why did you make the inside slots that deep?

Welding in the snow. Surely everyone dreams of doing that ;)

There's no such thing as fluxcore MIG. It's one or the other. FCAW or GMAW.
