I agree with you about a welding helmet/ head lamp combo. More light the better
Should used angle iron instead of the flat bar around the box less weld
I’m certain after 3 seconds into this video that you are self taught and you’re trying to be meticulous which is good. Using hard wire. Your small machine with small wire 030 or even smaller. You should have fit your panels “ corner to corner” meaning the insides of your corners touch leaving a nice bevel to weld on. Set the machine nice and do a down hand top to bottom. It’s beautiful. Use a sanding pad and lay it flat on each sheet making it smooth. Then round off your weld keeping the disk flat not on an angle gouging into the material. This makes it look seamless. Also don’t do a million tacs all over the place you have to weld over it. Lots more to learn but keep it up
Good vid. When I can't use my Snap On LED floor light like urs I use a Coast LED light over my helmet with an adjustable strap. It works pretty well and the battery pack sits in the back of the helmet. Also, try the black charcoal welding blankets bc they r soft with no fiberglass and they work great.
Oh, man... I've been wondering if there was something. Thanks so much for the advice.
GOOD JOB, LOOK VERY GOOD
Me gusta tu trabajo . Pero deberías de aser tu caja en dos partes y no en cuatro, para que no tengas que soldar demasiado, parte de arriba y lados con dobles una sola pieza, parte abajo y de atrás una sola pieza con dobles
Nice work
Amigo me gusta tu trabajo , pero deberías de aser tu caja en dos partes y no en cuatra partes, para ahorrar soldadura
You only needed to weld the outside of the box if you set up the corners such that you had a V bevel . Tack and weld up back stepping the weld . If your plate was sheared or cut square your box will be square . Get some proper pants on too. You never leave bare skin hanging out welding ..Properly sheared and broke you would have had less welding and door would have been inset and piano hinge used . Then a foam rubber weather strip could have been put in . For that long of a box 2 cross broke doors with a divider in the middle . For a novice you done alright
Nice job , but two things on the chains - it's a lot easier if you fasten the chain inside the box First before fastening it to the lid . And second , eliminate the middle chain , it's OVER-KILL , and it makes it difficult to put long akward shaped items in the box .
AWKWARD -- Sorry , typo , big clumsy fingers weren't working as fast as they should .
thanks for the input.
nice box great job im planning on tackling this project never welded before but if I get in a jam I will have a friend give me a hand how much do you have in materials approximately. your friend will be happy with that box.
With that thin steel try vertical down or at 80% to 60%. angle for the welding. You will be very happy with the results.
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account??

@Forrest Noel instablaster =)
@Alessandro Hamza i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Alessandro Hamza it worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
@Forrest Noel happy to help xD
Piece of 1/4"x1" flat bar for a plasma guide works real good
oN WELDING THE INSIDE SEAM IT IS BETTER TO SIT IT BETWEEN TWO TABLES AND CRAWL UP INSIDE. tHAT WAY YOU CAN WELD THEM FLAT INSTEAD OF THE OFF POSITION OF ON YOUR SIDE WELDING IN.
great idea. I will try this for next time.
what thickness is the metal?
11g. for the inside edges and door. 14 g. for everything else.
thats quite heavy! on mine i did 16 for all . good job
I've had a DeWalt 4" grinder for 17 years and it just died a month ago.
