      He measured from the bottom of the steel beam to the red laser line after he picked his highest point at 5" and 3/8. That was his starting point to compare and contrast the remaining support piers. At least, that is what I understood.

    • @fabricationplanet

      You need to find a way to determine a "level plane" to measure against... Once you know what "level is, you can determine if you want to LOWER everything to the lowest point, RAISE everything to the highest point, or PICK-A-POINT and move everything... Just keep in mind that electrical connections, gas line connections and septic drains need to be able to "adjust" to the new height. Sometimes that will make your decision for you... So for me, I have a laser level, and that was the easiest to use to find a "level plane". The steel frame under the trailer is the easiest to measure. If the frame is level, the trailer is level. You could also use clear plastic tubing with water in it to measure "level" as well... if you don't have a laser...

    These Mobile homes are a can of worms ! I'm a Professional Builder, 40 years hands on residential just so you know. One thing i saw was the location of your access door , that needs to be moved to a location where access is UN obstructed. Next, I always use a water level especially for re-levels. You can make one for under $20. Use 100 ft of Tubing so you can reach every corner of the Home. Speaking of corners, thats what is awesome about water levels, you can level around corners, over sand piles etc. Cant do that with a laser. Well, I will stop there because this is your show so...

BUT living in it when it is so far out of level really messes with equilibrium!

    Help needed: After drawing the third circle and moving to the view where I can pull a surface, it only gives me the inner circle (from centre to the first inner circle line) and then the outer rim (circle 2 to circle 3) as a surface, but not the space between circle 1 and 2 - the one I need to pull to form the lip. In the video all 3 spaces become available for pull, but I only have the two areas available. Is there a way to make the program see that as a surface (the lip area - between circle 1 and 2)?

    • @fabricationplanet
      @fabricationplanet 6 месяцев назад

      It can be a little tricky sometimes... so many issues can cause problems. The main requirement is that ALL the elements you are trying to put together must be in the same "component" in the structure tree, and be on the exact same "plane" to be able to pull or manipulate when switching from 2D to 3D tools... Sometimes you just have to delete the lines, start a new 2D plane and redraw all the lines again on that plane...

    • @ianpretorius45
      @ianpretorius45 6 месяцев назад

      @@fabricationplanet Thank you for the response. I have restarted a couple of times and even on a whole new design. I double check that I draw all three circles on the same plane and from the same centre. Still getting the same problem. I have tried changing the order of drawing the circles (working from small to large). I have also tried doing 4 circles - doubling up on the inner circle. For some reason the program keeps seeing the circle that should become the lip as a space and then the inner part and outer rim as surfaces. Under the structure tree I get "Design3" as my main heading, and then "surface" as a sub section. When I hover the mouse over the two areas given as surfaces in the design, the "Surface" part highlight in the structure, but when I go into the gap, nothing is highlighted.

    Luckily I own a lathe, so I am able to turn wooden parts to help reshape and resize PVC parts to fit various sizes just perfectly. I have made wooden "moulds" to reduce and expand 2" PVC into all sorts of adapters for my shop vacuum and tools. I even made a wooden mould to shape 4" PVC into gutter downspout connections to steer water away from my house. A heat gun is the essential tool.

      First, I agree with you completely... Safety first! It made ME nervous seeing the laser zipping across my head! ALSO, YES! A mask would have been great. As stupid as it is, I have been exposed to so many situations that were so much worse. In the moment, it seems like getting the job done becomes "tunnel vision" Now, as far as "money saved"... I did not get any estimates, but having been a contractor and handy-man for years... I would certainly have priced a job like this at $800 - $1200 depending on "issues" that happen. Certainly having it take 3 partial days would have pushed it to the upper end. My total costs (greatly because I had the tools) were only $53 in materials. (and I suppose you could throw $25 on there for fuel to run to town)

  • @landonedwards7504
    @landonedwards7504 Год назад

    Just came across this, and wanted to point out some cautionary issues... heating PVC will cause it to degrade. The more you heat it, the more it degrades. 2 things happen with degradation: 1) properties diminish (flex modulus, tensile strength, hardness, etc). So be sure whatever you're trying to make doesn't require critical parameters to function in your application. 2) When PVC degrades, it gives off harmful volatiles, the worst of which is called vinyl chloride monomer - a known carcinogen. Inhaling the fumes of degrading PVC will expose you to VCM, and that can accumulate in tissues and organs. So this work is best done with an approved respirator. IT SHOULD NOT BE DONE, as presented, WITHOUT APPROPRIATE PPE. Finally, if you ever cause PVC to smolder, you will not be able to put it out with water. You'll need to smother it with sand or some other non-combustible. It should be removed to the outside, away from people and pets, and the fire dept. called. The fumes from even small pieces can kill because you're now generating hydrochloric acid. The only reason I know this stuff is because I used to formulate PVC resin compounds in the plastics industry, and was responsible for safety and OSHA compliance. This material should not be taken lightly, and Fab Planet would do well to add some cautions.

    the paint heat gun is good for those small jobs but if you are going to do a lot of custom fittings we used to use engine oil in a pot. vegetable oil also works. fill to the depth you want and dip it in. don't make it too hot otherwise it burns the pipe. the added advantage was it lubricated the fitting as well. we did hundreds of fruit rollers using that method.
