Welding a Custom Aluminum Fountain | Koi Pond Pt 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- The project was to design and fabricate a contemporary centerpiece for a koi pond.
The piece consists of complex digital joinery that could only be achieved through digital design and fabrication. In this case, waterjet.
In this video, I will use a Miller Multimatic 211 and a spool gun to weld together the waterjet cut 3/8” aluminum plate. This is a new process to me and is an incredibly satisfying way to weld aluminum!

If you are getting deja vu, you aren’t going crazy! I reposted this video so that it is closer to part 2 in the feed. th-cam.com/video/hxuluflcv9g/w-d-xo.html
Damn for a second i thought we'd be getting 2 Videos in one day! Ive been bamboozled. Although the endresult is a new Video so yay xD
You should pin this comment 🙂
I do was confused for a wee while
aaaah, so it wasn't that Mission Impossible scene in the vault that triggered the deja vue feeling 🤪
I'm getting some strong deja vu! 🙂
Part 2: th-cam.com/video/hxuluflcv9g/w-d-xo.html :)
So am I. I KNOW I've seen a video of this being built before but can't find anything else in the @Brian Oltrogge 's past videos. And I don't think last time it was a 2 part thing.
@@AdamHaile I think he reuploaded it to give some context to the second video, cause it was like almost a full year if not more since the original was uploaded
I absolutely love the fact that what looks like a clickbait thumbnail is actually a real part of the video :)
I was concerned that people would be repulsed by the thumbnail. I know I am on the look out for click bait. I thought it had kind of a pond like quality… always a tough choice.
@@Grunblau Well, looks to me like a perfect pond AND a perfectly honest clickbait thumb. You sir stroke gold :D
Your editing and camera work is genuinely impressive. Lots of respect.
I'm glad you reposted this in tandem with part 2. I hadn't seen this yet and the thumbnail got me.
I am glad you found it! I figured that part 1 might get lost if it wasn’t reupped. I had also posted that one before they changed some of the content settings effectively hiding it from some people.
3:16 Brian building a Stargate.
Always amazed by your work!
Thank you! Dig your avatar ;)
4:58 - Overall an awe-inspiring project - and clever little workshop hacks like this just add to the smile-factor.
It looks like a radio telescope antenna. I love it
I was hoping it would generate its own power through some sort of plasma-radio wave resonance, but sadly the secondary function as a fountain will have to do… for now.
My old boss would be yelling " Wipe the ink off the part with acetone before you hit it with the sander!!!" lol
Hmmm… Is this a thing? I know it can make its way through paint/powdercoat.
Should’ve played some mission impossible music when you got lowered in for that weld 😂
I have too many community strikes already… 2001 Space Odyssey theme for rigid weights and Take 5 for an early video about a CNC machine :).
insanely good work man
Thanks!
👍👍👍

Amazing
‼️👏👏‼️
@7:20 Tom Cruise must be proud of you...
This was much more uncomfortable than it looked!
@@Grunblau I can imagine that.
For next time maybe you tie up a palette on the (long reach) forklifter and you lay down direktly on the palette...
did you reupload the video? i could swear that i've seen this already
Yes. I decided to move it next to part 2 in the feed. Part 2 is here: th-cam.com/video/hxuluflcv9g/w-d-xo.html
6061 aluminum?
Yes. Fairly certain.
Whats with the 40's style microphone filter? :)
Did I use the 40’s filter again? I was shooting for 1957.
Did you weld any of the cross members to each other? Or just to the rim and center of the structure?
Great question! Rim and the triangular piece in the center were welded. The ribs that touch the center plate were strategically the ones that held up most of the weight. Everything else is allowed to ‘float’
Out of pure curiosity, do you do your own voice over or is this an artificial voice?
I do my own voice-overs… I used to just use my iPhone until it started getting weird. For the last couple videos, I have used a Shure MV7.
@@Grunblau you do a great job then! The volume and modulation is as perfect as the work you create. I make explainer videos for medical care for a living and I wish my voice artists were more like you! Cheers! Awesome fountain by the way!
Is this a reupload? I'm definately sure I've watched this before.

I reupped it partially to update to the newer content settings and so that it lives next to part 2 in the feed! Thanks!
Your voice sounds like text-to-speech
Thanks?
So did you run out of content?
No, I am posting this at the same time, so they are easy to find together! Part 2 is here th-cam.com/video/hxuluflcv9g/w-d-xo.html
@@Grunblau Well in that case thank you good sir, love the work.
