You should put your welder on a boom (long swing arm) so u can access half your shop with the one welder. Build the base with pipe and then the brace arm with "I" beam.
You may want to build an adjustable "crane" for the 15 feet of gun welding lead. Nothing outrageous, maybe from some 1.75" inch pipe thin wall, (6' Ft. long) and some 1.5" inch pipe thin wall.(4' ft. long.) Ideal, the "fall" of the welding lead, should be to the middle of the welding table. The crane should pivot equal to the center of the table. If you want, hit me up via E-Mail, I have a "MAST" design from March 2004, I'll send to you, DXF format. If I remember correctly, I was copying from a major manufacture of welding supplies. With the mast in hand, you just need to build a vertical (adjustable 6'ft. to maybe 10' ft) support, wouldn't take much.

Man i need me a Tommy. Its amazing how many times you need that third hand. Its hard to find good help that you can trust to do good work. Also awesome video.
If that's your first question, you aren't right for the job. Skills/talent demand pay. Try "what would my opportunities for growth be?" Or "how do you tie compensation to performance?"
@@42Fab I'm not asking for a job. I'm curious what he would value "a Tommy" at. To add. I do contract tech work. How much I'm being paid is part of the equation.
FYI we had 2 weeks ago a scrap steel price of $450 now it's back down to $350 so always watch within 2 weeks the price jumped and than 2 weeks later dropped so check them out weekly every Tuesday with your biggest Rail attached Scrap Yards, because those give you better pricing.
Guessing about $4900 in materials, and $9,800 in labor. Working in rough numbers of course. Do you total your materials and mark them up, or do you mark them up by item? I use a sliding scale, the less an item costs, the more it is marked up. Using a rough rule of thumb labor is typically double the materials.
I have been doing production for a while now and I never buy local unless it Argon Gas. I just bought a Thermal Dynamics (Esab) 60 amp plasma cutter. Got it delivered for $1650 all included (Ebay. I called my local welding supply they don't even buy it for that price from their supplier. I also get 44 pound rolls of mig wire $70 , cant beat that. Ebay is a great source for a manufacturer. Hi volume lower prices. This is where the money is made. Of coarse i'm good at material prices but I need to work on speeding up my production.
Jig vs fixture A jig might hold the work piece(s), but it always guides the tool. A fixture only holds the work piece(s). My friend, you are definitely working with a fixture.
@@42Fab I get it. Heck the proper name for the what powers most cars and trucks is an "engine". But, NASCAR and the other motorsport organizations call it a "motor". I design machines, fixtures, and jigs for a living and some of my customers, who are themselves engineers, would poo poo anything that was mislabeled. I used to use jig and fixture interchangeably, but I can no longer do that.
I use to do just what you are doing using SMAW. That was long time ago. The process you are doing I would do. Still got the touch with the stick welding just as good as the MIG. This brings back memories. Keep up the great work showing others the working process.
after listening to the last part of the video, you're a good boss. My rule has always been and this was taught to me by my father - never ask an employee to do something you wouldn't do yourself. One in all in.
I was just going to say, I worry about fire in my little shop because there's wood around. I think I'll stop worrying so much. If that hasn't lit up, my spare 2x4s will be fine.
Jig is very critical to keep spec's within it's torance's, thank's for showing this part. Do you buy wire in bulk for discount? Shop I worked out of bought pallet at a time. Love the big shop, the big table's, weld er up. Production work having good set up help's on production time saving money. Look's like Quality is key in production, being consistent from start to finish is harder then most factory in. Moving part's on jig's have to be checked, QA engineer that can read spec sheet's saving time but QA, is expensive. So doing all the assembly on this job you all killed it. Nice work.
I definitely feel you on only doing occasional production runs... it's fun to try out that part of the brain occasionally, but not what I wanna be doing.
I worked in metal construction from 2000 until 2003 and vulcanizer of conveyor belts and rubberizing of drums from 2003 until 2016 and thermal power plant workshop driver (GTA) from 2016 until now
Accuracy is not always consistent with welded place holder jigs. Especially if your running more then one jig. It just depends on how much accuracy a job requires.
Charge your hourly labor rate unless you have a shop rate with more than 1 employee (all determined by your overhead, utilities, consumables etc) then retail price for material, (if you can buy wholesale usually 20-50% less than retail). Sometimes I bid high cause I may not want to do a job, and still get it. If you can multitask then your efficiency is better. Most people lose money in the phase of prototyping the first piece or not having a clear design or making multiple trips. I charge more if I don’t have a clear drawing. Doesn’t have to be perfect but having to engineer it while working on it is gonna drive up the labor charge. Lot of other things go into bidding and doing these jobs though.Jmo.
Hey do you have a video on what buisness you built. As in s-corp, llc, soal.... what insurance do you have and what does it cover? What licenses did you have to have, what permits with the city? How did you go about getting it all set up? Thank you.
Something like this is possible, but a limited topic as each area is going to be different. We're an LLC, require worker's comp, most cities in my area require a license, which is just a "pay a fee" tax in disguise, permits for each job (again, mostly a fee and making sure any electrical is permitted or allowed), Everything but the insurance is a matter of calling the city or state to get it started. Insurance is about shipping for the right agent to handle your needs. There are tax benefits over an LLC, but when you're starting out, or have a high reinvestment rate, they are not worth the additional admin costs.
love fixtures or jigs, especially ones where you can clamp the material down, ah, where's the ventilation? ah, who am I to judge, I weld through oil, so.... great spatter tip, been getting some major gunk all over from the table, again, ventilation, where is it? above you?
What solution did you use in this video to clean metal? Im up to start a metal tank production and catching every piece of metal fabrication methods all over RUclips.
Nice job, I enjoy your videos and hope you continue to do more. Would love to start my own business and stop working for the man but haven't been able to bring myself to take that leap yet. Keep up the good work.
Awesome I love to see people grow although I'm still waiting to see how much you charged how many hours and what was your profit thank you so much for the vid.

we spent a week building a jig for a catwalk standard section(20ft) and then used it for the next 10 years making those sections for the tops of grain silo's, they were so good that the engineers saved time and money by using them as their standard.(i "helped" build this jig as an apprentice then used it as a Jman) Just curious,, why dont you use a plywood table to weld stuff out on? that way you can sweep the splatter off instead of grinding it off?(is it a space issue or not wanting to move the plate top you have sitting on that table?) i've always built jigs as a frame i can put on a table instead of welding them to the table for this reason, that way i get to keep the jig, label it, and use it again later if needed?
We have a few jigs we reuse that are saved, but most we never revisit. We work right on the table as it gives us an unwarping ground plane that is a time saver.
We had leg jig's, me an a kid from Texas put out 1000 leg's probably faster then few day's work, more like 4 hr's. Shop leader on production would mix job's, million dollar contract's are boring, cause you could be welding in the same jig up to two month's straight, before product change's.
@@42Fab how do u get your overflow work if your a small garage many people probably want to know how to do this? I prefer tig but will weld any process.
I’d love to know how you guys are doing since the pandemic? Are you guys still working or shut down? I don’t know what part of the country you guys are in?
A shop can never be too big. You would be surprised at how fast it can fill up. My 40 x 60 filled up in under a month after I built it. I added another 1000 sq ft to it and now there is room to work and maneuver without constantly stepping on something or having to step over something.
