Nice, tight little project! Is there much wiggle or slop in the joints? I'm considering a project using angle and rivets, and was going to use "weld" epoxy in the joints for rigidity. Any advice?
Cool, but you should put a couple of 45 degree supports some where in it (anywhere), because aluminum and rivets like to stretch over time and you have a whole lotta pivot points with those single rivets at each connection. It's just waiting to get wobbly and start dancing on yah just a matter of time.. my 2 cents.
While I hope a comment/compliment coming from a woman won't have less value to you than a man's, I think this was brilliant. Not being as familiar with the equipment used as perhaps other handy people, I would have appreciated a narrative as you worked, explaining it in the most minute detail. But it was still brilliant and it makes me want to buy a riviter (I guess that was the air tool?) I thought the 'sliding thing' that you used on the table saw was also great. Wish you were my next door neighbor. Thanks so much for the excellent idea. Diane
Hi Diane, I just wanted to say that the air driven riveter may be more expensive than a Milwaukee M12 riveter especially if you or your husband or your friend already have Milwaukee battery tools.
It appears you like to rivet things -- so I would recommend you get some CLECOs from a place like Aircraft Tool Supply. I use them to lay up panels on my Airstream but the other day they came in handy to hold something together that I was pop riveting in the shop. They would work much better than just sticking a rivet in a hole to try to hold a piece in place while you rivet another part of it. Very nice looking storage rack you made there! I am thinking of doing something similar for a Sortimo rack. How stiff is your rack? Do you have any issues with it trying to skew side to side?
Wow! I just saw the CLECOS and it's exactly what I wanted!!! Thank you so much brother! It is not stiff enough for sortimo... Specially when they are full of nuts and bolts, I made the sortimo racks out of iron bars... You can see my video build... Thank you again for the suggestion!
I was about to recommend clecos too but thought I'd look through the comments first. We used em all the time in the army, I was a helicopter mechanic. Love your videos! Keep em coming.
This video totally changed my plans to make a rack for my 10+ Raaco sorter boxes out of MDF. They just hold electronics and related parts and the MDF is overkill and heavy. What type of aluminum did you use for this project 6061 or 6063 or something else?
Brian Boatright Yes Aluminum is definitely a better choice... I have no idea what kind of alu was it... I just picked it up at the local hardware store based on the shape I needed... You think it would actually make a difference here? Thank you so much for watching...
I don't think it matters. From what I could learn 6061 is cheaper and stronger with rounded angles and rougher finish that can be anodized. The 6063 has a smoother finish and sharp corners but about half the strength of 6061, it also costs more than 6061. At least according to the various guides I read. If you look at your angle pieces and the corner and edge are rounded, its likely 6061 if it's all sharp then 6063. For our purposes I think the 6061 will be easier on the plastic cases because of the already rounded edges. If the parts will fit in your oven, they could also be anodized :-)
Giaco Whatever I have not but it is on my to do list as well. :-) According to my local metal shop there is a guy somewhere that has a giant over, large enough for a small car, that will paint and cook parts for anodizing. If I do it I'll send a few rivets along for the ride too.
I love what you did. You save me a lot of money but just added a new project to my wish list. Thank you... I am being sarcastic and truthful at the same time , if that is possible... lol Now I will wait to see if money or time wins me over.
+Giaco Whatever found u thru waelders channel ! you make great vids .. that's a cool rivet gun, what is that plastic part on the back of the rivet gun ?
Nicely done! However, (and I can't believe I'm actually going to pull the "safety police" card) please for the love of all that is good and holy use a standoff on your fence when you are crosscutting alum on the tablesaw. It's so sticky, one degree of angle mistake means it would bind, launch and likely kill everyone in the house ... ok it's not that bad, but boy you'll never make it thru airport security easily again.
No I think you're absolutely right! I noticed it as well when I saw the footage... I must say that for some reason, when I'm filming I'm less aware of what I'm actually doing... But thank you for your comment, officer... :)

Beautiful! Awesome video as well. Thanks for posting!
Using tools to make tools...love it!! Great job!!
Thank you Josh! :)

+Atimatik Army you are right! I found out the hard way and fixed time ago! Thank man
Awesome, glad you figured it out and dialed it in. I'm a new sub, BTW!
Nice job, I like the track over to the information in final shot!
Thank you David Waelder ... The fire extinguisher one is half way in the editing... Got sone problems! -.-
This was a cool video sir! I have a riveter like that I've never used and a big need for more organization in the shop so this is right up my alley!
Nice job putting the video together. I like your creativity.

Diane, from a woman means a lot more!!!

Congrats for your always entertaining videos, I love them!
+TheBowserBasher Thank you bud! Glad you like 'em! :)
Awesome work Giaco!! Sending support from Brooklyn NY!!

Yes I got em now and they are awesome!!! Thank you! Helicopters... Wow!!!
Riveting video, really! :D

Then I think 6061... Anodizing is something that I'd like to attempt in the future... Must be a really rewarding process... You done it before?
Giaco Whatever I have not but it is on my to do list as well. :-) According to my local metal shop there is a guy somewhere that has a giant over, large enough for a small car, that will paint and cook parts for anodizing. If I do it I'll send a few rivets along for the ride too.
That would be awesome!!!
nicely done. Congratulations

Good video this is what I needed to help me build my crypto mining frames with 1/16 aluminum angle def looks better with rivets than screws
bravo giaco
What kind of rivet gun is that you're using?
I have the same question about the rivet gun.
It's automatic, you plug it to the air compressor and does its thing... Awesome!
Wao!!! good idea!!! :)
+Oscar Delgado Tolosa thanks man!
we all share the "fetish" for tools, holders and boxes for shop stuff! ;)
Man... It's an absession!!!
+Giaco Whatever found u thru waelders channel ! you make great vids .. that's a cool rivet gun, what is that plastic part on the back of the rivet gun ?
The white thing? To collect the waste... ;)
+Giaco Whatever oh i see , when it snips off the excess! nice response time on that question ... thanks giaco keep up the amazing work !
Thank you
👍🏻
Nice
So I am not alone... I keep my drawers full of boxes in bigger drawers.. :)
Ahahah! Yup
Nicely done!

If it's any solace, I hate myself just a little for preaching.
