It’s time consuming, but letting the piece cool down completely while it’s all clamped down is the only way I’ve kept things square. And it’s the main reason I spent the money on a fixture table.
Love your videos. You keep me motivated. Thanks!
🇪🇬Creative greetings to you from Egypt
You tack bars on the inside to keep it from bowing. If it still bows you can add a little bit of heat to the inside of the tube and shrink the steel. I used to build Derricks for drilling rigs and we had to heat the bottom of the tubes to get the bow out
Agree with Tyler on the heating. If you need to bow it out heat the inside and let it cool. From a practical perspective you can clamp it all you want, but the welds cause shrinkage and expansion and as soon as you release the clamps the internal stresses will cause distortion. Unless you have a very rigid frame with lots of cross bracing, you are going to get bowing. Time is money. So, just weld it and make adjustments after. You can use a hydraulic jack, a come-along, beat it or heat it. All will work for this application. With that welding table you can easily perform any of those straightening options as you can lock and pin at any location. The severity may determine the option to use.
Any videos out there that show?
I tack the inside of the flat plate (to hide the welds) and it still bows.
You're right. That's how I build rails
Ive been welding Pretty much all my life ( 75) years & Really Injoy your videos. Proves you Never know Everything, keep making the different types of products & posting.😁
Bonjour Monsieur, je tiens à vous féliciter pour votre professionnalisme en tant que serrurier, soudeur ... Je me suis abonné à votre chaîne youtube depuis longtemps et je ne rate jamais une seule de vos vidéos. Félicitations et à très bientôt pour une prochaine vidéo de votre part.
Bye 🖐️ from PARIS 🌷 FRANCE 🇨🇵

15:45 maybe you could preshim a backward bow into it planning for the warp when you weld the other side
They make a 2" deep lock box Jim.. or at least they used to.. think i got em from Jansens ornamental. On the heat draw from the inside weld i used to just take my torch (can use a rosebud dont have to) and apply an even amount of heat to the first 3 or 4" fron corners of tube on the outside obviously and the opposite draw effect would usually bring the middle back out pretty dam close with the right amount of 🔥. Appreciate the videos dude keep it up 👍
Put heat dots with the torch to bring it back!!
Right solution for that kind of problem with frame.Big hammer some pieces of wood and everything will be okay 👍On the end we work with metal, it's not some plazma TV 😉 greetings from Macedonia 🇲🇰
you get the torch out and heat on the other side of tubing in same spots as your stitch welds on flat bar
I love how you extended your welding table nice very nice....
I usually leave the inside to be welded last. Works pretty good for me, I haven`t had this issue anymore. Great job by the way.
Save the inside corner filet for last.
outside corner first, then face weld next, and if you can flip it over and do the face weld on the other-side.
then do the opposite face, next like doing up lug nuts alternate your welds.
Inside corner filet last that one pulls the most.
Cheap hydraulic ram kit from Harbor Freight would help with fixing warp... more control and less noisy or violent.
Problem with a hydraulic ram is it pushes in both directions.. so would require stabilising the straight side in many points and fixing a sturdy support for the ram to push against.. a lot easier to just use a 12lb. persuader.
Lol your fixing method is so quick it's probably not worth the time to tack some bracing on the frame before welding, good job mate.
Great work! One tip if I may add is to end your welds on your tacks, rather than start on them. Your tacks are "cold" and running your weld over them will help the "cold" tack fuse in better with the base material.
Cut some pieces of 1/2” or any scrap metal same size of inside dimension to lay inside the frame 2 or 3 top middle and bottom that really helps out .. I have a few out of 3/4sq with a 5/8sq inside to slide in and out with a bolt handle to adjust to different sizes ..
Hi I'm learning a lot from you I'm waiting patiently for the next video Thank you very much dear man
Beautiful job Jim. Thank you for sharing this. Metal is easier than wood to work with in my opinion, but it still has a mind of its own. Simple & effective fix!
Tack tack tack is the key meaning everything including cross braces even if it's temporary before welding everything so u can move around also when welding. They have air Jack's also hydraulic Jack's use to open wider those work also but pretty pricey.
The only way I’ve found to stop warping on this type of fab work is to tack some braces to the workpiece diagonally in both directions or diagonally in alternating corners
2 seems to work well
Thx for the inspiration on the different gates you build! I ended up building my mom one for her birthday!! Thx again.
I use my porta-power to straighten a bow like that.
I would love to see an in depth video of how you measure the space, account for the hinges, account for other gaps and spaces need, how you put a straight piece of steel to uneven rocks. And why people can’t just lift these gates off the hinges?
I just made a door and i left a 1\8 gap for allowance and went to install and it still rubbed on the top frame. I think i used to heavy flat stock and yeah
Those are his secrets! Lol.
Really it's all just math,that you use for the width of the hinges you use ,the with of the gate opening for you application.
It's all on you to figure out and subtract, divide.
Simple.
straightening instead of pounding it with sledge. and since you have a pinable table. pin material and use a porta power to straighten the metal. will give you a more controlled straighteng process
Hi Jimbo love your work I do a little welding my self , I’m learning a lot from you ( from Trinidad 🇹🇹)
You might try a farm jack to get that warp out in a little more of a controlled fashion.
Thanks for all the knowledge. Watching your videos has inspired me to get a welder and tackle some awesome jobs.😎✌🏼
Great job Jimbo! Always learning something new watching your videos, looking forward to the next!
당신은 정말 기술이 좋아요
아주 멋지네요 😂😂😂😂😂
Beautiful build. If I was ordering I'd add a small medieval type door to peek out of and use all black screws
nice simple and functional idea the extension to the counter
Rule #1 when welding, be comfortable.....even if its in socks and sandals 🤣. Jimbo your the master when it come to being comfortable while welding. Great job on the gate looks fantastic as always look forward to seeing your next project 👍😁
Great looking gate!!🔥🔥
To remove bow I apply a little heat on opposite side with rosebud. When it cools it shrinks back and now usually disappears
Time's money, always try for a flat weld, less wire and grinding, plus i would only tack at first just in case something get knocked out of whack. Luv videos and the shop.
Awesome video..! i like what you build 👍
Quality work and 100% on learning from your mistakes
I'm a serious fan of your videos but I just have to tell you that I LOVE the intro, "Welcome to Jimbo's Garage." We had a hunting game for our grandboys, when they were little and the voice and intro sounded just like yours LOL.
I would like to add to this video.
What I do is pre drill thru holes on the angle iron and you only need to go thru the thinner sheet tube with self tapped screws.
And then there's less chance of damaging anything.
Love the work boots you're sporting in the shop
Heat the metal up with torch it will help stop the hot spot or hit it with a hammer or press it out
Hi Jim, I just got a moment to watch this latest video and, WOW... Not sure I like your idea on straightening but here is what I've done in the past... Run a few long beads with your MIG along the length where the bow is and it should draw in on the side with the bow and straighten in...
Dude this is great. I wish you would lay that tongue and groove at a 45. I feel like it would give it a snazzy look. Great stuff.
Dang Jimbo... another beautiful project ! Thanks as always for sharing.
Thanks Jimbo
Hi Jim.
Been a tubing fabricator for 40 years you need a (Monkey on a stick tool). Simple to use, cheap to push or pull tubing.
Exquisite
That was a quick 30 minutes.. Well that turned out beautiful Jimbo, as all your work does... lol , definitely barbaric, but whatever works.. Thx for taking us along.. Take care my friend..
very nice
Hi mr. Jim. I'm a welder and here are my two tips and tricks which I use when dealing with warping:
1)ex. If I have a warped rectangular frame, I just give some spot welds in equal distances from the center on the opposite side, and when it cools it should shrink back straight.
Always apply heat to the opposite side where it bent.
2) I use two portable 4 ton kit with a lot of adaptors and a 5 t pull jack using with some heavy duty chain and straighten things out very easily.
Sorry, but I never use a sledgehammer to straighten stuff out.
That gate is a beauty love that tiger wood great job Jimbo
fricken amazing love your channel
Hey Jimbo, back when I used to make gates more often or railings, I would use a couple of ratchet straps or a come along to an anchor similar to how a body shop uses a body puller. You could also use a hi-lift or farm jack or any type of streamline Jack or a hydraulic power pusher.
I reseal/stain my wood fence every year with the same product, it works great and looks great 😊
That sure is a beautiful gate, Jim
Wow turned out amazing 👌👏👍
That wood is awesome on this
Nice 👍
I am very impressed with the way you work, and I really want to work in your company, thank you very much mr.
Can you make a video on how you go to the clients house and do measurements ? And also about settting your post and leveling the gate ?
Beautiful work man!!
What about putting in some of those locating pins so it can't move while it's clamped? If you don't know how to stop it I doubt I would be able to either.
Outstanding
Nice
I worked at an aircraft company and our weld fixtures had chill bars (I think they were brass) around each weld to absorb the heat. A wet rag may do the same though.
RICH, RICH, RICH...
Hi,
Thank you for your videos they are very helpful. I just built a gate with some help from your videos. What do you do for the door latch and strike plate on the post i can’t find any videos on how to do that part
Using thicker wall material will help prevent bowing
I have a way Jimbo. One day I'll try to do a video and show you. Send you a link. It works almost millimetre perfect every time. I can't stop the plates from bowing the steel without a homemade press.
Beautiful Gate, great job!!
Very nice Job Jimbo. This is a very nice design. Hopefully you or the future owners get great use out of it my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep making. God bless.
1. Great project, im hoping i can do a gate like that for my yard at some point.
2. Not going to lie Jimbo, I'm concerned about your ungloved hand. Just wanted to remind you to stay safe. If you keep the glove off because it's hard to feel what you're doing, you could try a TIG glove on that hand so that you're protected and can feel a little bit better.
Agree, especially being a red head. Also need to protect your lungs while welding, grinding and painting-if you want to keep doing it down the road.

Get you a Porto power. They come in handy for a lot of situations.
Hi, I'm not a welder yet, but I wanna be, that's why I'm watching your vids. Good stuff btw. I just thought I would contribute or see if I can answer your question about bowing. Would a brace in the middle either wedged, clamped or tac welded solved the bending problem. I know you said it was from heat, but I'm not exactly sure what or how it happens.
Boa noite. Tudo bem? Esse portão ficou "perfeito", um excelente trabalho. Já sou inscrito no seu canal no RUclips tem um tempo. E desde o primeiro vídeo que eu vi reparei que você é um profissional diferenciado na área de solda/serralheria. Você tem o dom, meus parabéns pelo seu trabalho. Um forte abraço e Deus abençoe você e sua família. Brazil/São Paulo.
that just happens because of the metal shrinkage. i try to put a little bend in pieces that i know are going to get a filler added to them or use a bottle jack and 2x4s after the fact to rectify the warpage as much as possible. I don't think my shop (garage lol) would survive if i missed with a sledge and sent it across the room.
How was the top radius determined? Gap between sections and gate? Thx. Nice job.
I just shoot for a 12 to 18 inch rise from end of gate to center for driveway gates 12 to 20'
@18:19 I use a ratchet straps to pull it back in line
that stain really popped that wood nice
Awesome video, love the work you do.
super Nice !! I use a floor jack to straight my sides, I have only made about 4 gates just for my house, learn from your videos :)
😂 I was telling my wife, Jimbo did a job for tiger!
😂😂😂
nice work
Very neat..
Buddy, have the extension on the side of the table with hinges.......?
Hey brother, love the content … question : on the 1x2 rectangular part with the radius, how thick is the Steel?
Use angle steel for the frame then you don’t need to weld flat bar to hold the wood
Do you use stainless steel self trappers on th retainer pieces of angle Iron to prevent Rusting. ?
I over bow and brace both ways.
🔥
1. Brace every corner
2. Weld alternate outside fillet corners
3. Weld alternate but corners but start from the inside corner of the frame and work your way out to the outside fillet you just welded
4. Then just Weld your inside fillets but still do opposite corners.
Probably wouldn't hurt to clamp down to table where you cam either.
17:42 you can take out that bow using an oxyacetylene Flame
Does the bottom angle iron mounting system create a rain or water catch?
3:30 🤣🤣🤣 That's what she said
when you say you have a local metal shop bend your tubing, how do you know what arch you want?
What type of locks are you using in these lock boxes?
aply heat before you weld Jimbo it helps with the welding distortion
Uma boa maneira de evitar essa curvatura seria soldar uma barra de metal (scrap) entre as laterais com apenas alguns pontos para poder retirar depois
Bom dia. Me manda o Link da construção desta bancada de aço.
