Mobile welding Stainless TIG repair
That’s an Awesome design. Fantastic welding table.
@@lancez.3287 Thank you, and thanks for watching!
@@Freedomfabrication777 I got some 3/8" plate and I'm going to build mine very similar to yours. Love the design.
That will work just dandy. Just a friendly reminder. Because the plate is so much thinner, be careful how much weld/heat you put into it. I would only put a stitch every 90 degrees on the legs. I’m telling you this, because I’ve made the mistake of putting too much weld on a table made from 3/8”, and the heat made the edges rollover where I welded the legs and the angle to the bottom. I think it will make a great table, just remember, minimal heat.
@@Freedomfabrication777 10/4. Too much heat is a killer. I'm going with a smaller table size of 4 x 4 because I have a smaller shop and smaller diameter but thicker wall thickness legs, and I'll move them closer to the outside corners for better stability given the smaller size. I'll use the angle iron underneath for added stability of the surface top. Thinking of adding some heavy-duty casters to the bottom so I can move it if need be.
@ That would be handy. Having a mobile welding work surface would be nice.
Your comments on table height are spot on. I made my table 4 inches too high and then mounted a big vise on top. Just not comfortable to use. "Think of swinging a hammer" as another poster commented. My next Saturday project will be to shorten the table legs or remount the vice at a lower height.
@@dohnbroadwell1858 I’m sure how tall a person is affects that by an inch or two, but having a table just the right height while working can make or break your comfort while working long hours at the table. Thanks for watching!
I subscribed for the bloopers
@@586scratchcity Glad my nerdy personality could provide some entertainment. Thanks for watching!
Hit 8k!!
@@Braxtonjordt Yes sir. Only took me 2.5 years, and 122 videos.
Love the video brother! I believe your welding with dual shield flux core..(for the bushings)FCAW for short… and if you have lots of buck shots I know a mix of 75/25 (75argon/25co2) gas can help with that.
@@tchevy17 I was using dual shield for the bushings. I’ve never tried the mixed gas with this wire. I’ll have to see if it makes a difference. Thanks for the info, and thanks for watching!
Awesome man. What dual shield wire do you run?
@@1963SMITTY .045 Kobelco Familiarc dw-50. Thanks for watching!
The algorithm brought me here. So glad it did!
@@argee55 Me too! I like it when the algorithm works! Thanks for watching!
Don’t use brake clean on anything that’s going to be welded
Fantastic build. I have been planning to build a 4x8 by 1" for a long time. Almost no videos out there of thick plate table tops. I thought I was the only crazy guy. Great channel. Thank you
@@grahamkmiller I’m a “one and done” type of guy. You build a table like that, you won’t regret it. Thanks for watching!
Nice to hear someone recommend stik welder. For me, the only option is stick or flux core.
@@fredbecker607 For me, It’s all about the right tool for the job. Sometimes stick is the right tool. Thanks for watching!
Great build💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

@@not_youngjustice3717 I truly hope so. Lol. Thanks for watching!
That plasma cutter is no joke cutting 1" that clean. That is a beautiful cut.
@@GregoryJohnston77 Love my Hypertherm. Great machine! Thanks for watching!
great job personnaly on heavy plate like this i prefer cut a straight line with metal circular saw
Nice table, great build and a respectable shop. Thank you for sharing with the youniverse. I hope other viewers learn the beauty of dual shield processes. Is the plate A.R. ? it has that red look to it and it does not bend as easy as a benefit. A.R. for those who may not know " Abrasive Resistant ".
@@aaronfox5808 No, this plate was actually A52. Thanks for watching!
Awesome table. Thanks for the ideas. Keep up the great work
@@danramos281 Thanks for watching Dan!
Nice table - -if you increase the video speed to 1.5 or more he doesn't sound so angry.
@@kurric4114 Lol. I get accused of sounding angry on the phone all the time too. Guess I need to talk faster.
I was always told elbows height or just an inch or two shorter... they said to think of using a hammer.
Esab .045 dual shield all day every day!
@@aintdatsnipes177 100% thanks for watching!
Burn table feeds n speeds and height adjustment was way off.
@@aintdatsnipes177 something obviously wasn’t right. Sucks when someone else screws up and you have to fix it.
If you're 5'9", I recommend that your welding table height be 37" (top of table) . Just build my table and thought that would help some of your subscribers.
36-37 for standing 34-35 sitting and standing
Nice review of this welder. I know most of these lower price units are entry level but it'd be interesting to see how durable they are long-term.
@@tallyman15 I’m gonna give it my best!
Man, that's a nice looking table!
@@JonesMetalCraft Thanks! And thanks for watching!
Nice table!
@@earlcavenaugh6459 Thank you, and Thanks for watching!
Another great video. Massive welding table completed, well done!
@@Scott_69HemiDart Another one in the books! Thanks for watching!
Nice build. That is a great table design. Simple and functional.
@@tallyman15 I like this style of table for fab work. Simple, stout, and handy. Thanks for watching!
Any time we fabbed a new table at Tri-Delta Systems, we always buffed and then wiped the table down with 30W motor oil. After buffing it in with a rag, we had a tabletop that would take WEEKS to get any surface rust due to the south Alabama humidity.
@@Trial-N-ErrorFarms-jk9iz Probably a good idea, especially in a humid state like Alabama. Utah is dry as a bone, so we don’t really have to worry too much about that around here. Thanks for watching!
Howdy from Evanston
@@stokefire7 Howdy. We’re practically neighbors. I drive through Evanston a couple times a year. Mainly when I go camping with the family. Thanks for watching!
Wow, what a great job making another table. I would love one someday! Thank you for the video, Stuart.
@@michaelbigelow367 Just so you know what to expect with cost, the materials were about $3000 for this one. Thank you for watching Mike!
@Freedomfabrication777 Ok, good to know. I try to get my material from the scrape yard if it's for myself or if the customer is ok with that. It depends on what it is. Thx Stu!
@@michaelbigelow367 No problem.
I guess I'm not the only one who forgets to go from grinding mode to welding mode. 😂😂 Good video

I've seen the Fireball vise. It's no joke especially for you guys that are hammering the metal all day. Why wouldn't you want a FIreball vise?
@@Corey-dy2cq I do want one, and I will probably get one when I wear mine out. At the time I didn’t have the money for a fireball vise. Thanks for watching!

You may have mentioned this before and i missed it but do you have 3 phase there or are you running a VFD or phase converter? Or is your stuff single phase?
