  • Опубликовано: 17 ноя 2018
  • It's been pretty busy around here lately, but in order to keep up with demand and get everything all set up, we gotta get organized! The more organization you have, the better the work flow, the more energy you have to actually do something when you're not staring at a mess. Here is a quick project about building a sheet metal brake stand out of remnants and scraps that will hopefully spark an idea in your head to help you get organized as well.
    If you like the camera work - drop a thumbs up or a shoutout to Alex. This is his first full length shoot with TFS as the new "camera guy".

    NOTES: The brake doesn't actually weigh 800 pounds. That was my goof. I had a freight order show up totaling 800 pounds and that's what stuck in my head for whatever reason... Oh well. The brake weighs about 300 pounds.
    Alex (the camera guy) is not offended. His retort to my "go away" is something I couldn't show because we run a clean channel here.

      Cross-bracing ? It is well bolted to bottom of the machine (with washers :).

    In future builds or an upgrade to this one, consider adding some channel spaced for a pallet jack or fork lift. For top heavy items like this, mounting it on wheels might not be the best idea.

    If I heard that burping sound from the pulse while I was welding I'd stop and go check my shorts. Maybe my socks too!

    • @TheFabricatorSeries
      @TheFabricatorSeries  5 лет назад +4

      If you think about how long that sound lasted, I'd be checking the floor and grabbing a shovel to clean it up.

    Now if you bent some round tubes around in an X and then curve down to the front to do the braces, you'd still have room for the shelf and it'd look pretty impressive...

    What’s the point of bending something if you can just weld it? Considering how expensive the brakes are what’s the point?

    • @TheFabricatorSeries
      @TheFabricatorSeries  5 лет назад +1

      Efficiency. It takes a lot less time to make a bend than it does to make a weld. Finish/reveal of a final part also changes efficiency as well as si.ple things like warpage and final processes to correct them. They all take more time to fix/finish/correct than bending it.
