Joining Angle Iron at 90 Degrees using an easy Cope Joint. Preparation for Welding.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 ноя 2018
- I was welding up an industrial-style cupboard I am making which is made mainly from Angle Iron and thought I would do a quick video on how I cut some of the 90-degree joints for welding in this project.
I have been using this joint or doing the 45-degree cut for many years, BUT, I did not invent this joint, people have been using this joint for many years before we started using it.

Always use all the correct safety gear, and use your tools safely, I am not a good role model for this.
Hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.

This is the Angle Iron Cupboard I was making in this video. ruclips.net/video/PYKxMC-awwg/видео.html
that's what I do for the corner frame. more solid and resistant

@Hello Gavin Clark, How are you doing?
Thank! I'm a beginner who really needed a straightforward method to cut and weld good, clean, 90-degree corners. Awesome!
You've just solved two problems for me - interdependent problems with the 45 degree mitre. Getting both square and dimensions right can be tricky. I sometimes gain and lose 1mm or 2mm in dimensions, by ensuring that the item is square. If I gain on the length, I lose on the width, and vice versa. This method guarantees dimensions and makes keeping square much easier! I can't wait to try it. Thanks so much mate!!
Thank you I am glad it was of some help. thank you for your comment
Been doing it that way for years!!
Makes for a good fit every time, it's faster, easier to weld and much easier to clean up!!!! Any grinding is out in the open more!!
Wow! What a coincidence? I have also independently conceived this idea sometime early this year,while contemplating on how to fabricate iron doors and windows using mostly angle iron bars and glass plus pieces of flat bar strips,it then turned out that this was an irreplaceable and most reliable option for certain areas of the design, so I say well done to you and for any one who is interested in my own design idea ,you can do so by directly responding to my comment for me to provide more details
I have been welding for some time and honestly I never thought abought that. This is simpler and think much better..
Thanks, always done 45 degree but from now, I'll be doing it this way. Thanks from UK.
Thank you
Gavin Clark Great tip! I am going to give this a try next time I weld up angle iron.
I used this technique to make a cooler holder for my tractor. 1 1/2” angle iron. Got it perfectly square. Lots of welding surface. Will be my method of choice from now on !
glad I've been doing this all the time (I used to weld 45s back then)
Good deal! I use that method of joining angle iron more than several times in the past.
Yes it is not a new idea, many people use it, thank you for your comment.
Thanks for demonstrating the cope joint. I'll try this next time I need to weld 90 degree angle with my everlast welder.
I am glad it was of some help. Thank you for your comment.
I use this technique for making equipment stands for A/C units. This makes a stronger stand than a 45˚ miter and it is easier to keep the stand square. Keep all the welds on the bottom for a smooth top surface
I'm from the Philippines, thanks for the new technic, I'm a newbie in welding and I love making thing, your video will help me a lot.
Thank you I am glad it was of some help.
This is great! I had no idea this less complicated version of a cope existed. 45 is a slow pain if only one chop saw is available. Have to keep changing between 45 and 90.
That’s nice I will give this a try .
Simple but very precise way of joints. Nice...
so good
Thanks for that great tip Gavin
Hay mate iam 20 year welder boilermaker thank you so much for sharing this this will be my preferred method from now on.
Thank you I am glad it was of some help.
Struth mate. 20 years a boily and this is new to you? You didn't learn much in early days. This is kindergarten stuff.
I learned this method when I first learned to weld! Were you asleep in welding class?
wow, even your tack welds are a thing of art, bravo!
Thank you very much!
God bless you mate. Was just looking for how to repurpose some old book shelf rack frames....and you nailed it for me.
Hey Gavin - thanks for this really useful tutorial. Your method for joining angle iron is very clever. I think it helps keep warp under control, is easy to clean up and easy to make joins discrete. Cheers!
Awesome, thank you, I am glad you liked it. Just for the record I did not invent this method it is one that we have used at different times over many years. Thank you for your comment.
Nice. I will try this method on my next project. I have had the legth issue with the miter before .
I believe this is a stronger joint vs. 45° .
Awesome! Cool idea, thanks.
Thanks for the video
Great picture frame joint.
Well done!
Nice work, great idea. Thanks for posting this.
Thank you
I’ve done them both ways. I also grind chamfers on the edges so I can flush grind the welds.
Same mate, makes for a neater final product.
That is a good idea. Looks clean too. Its not new but thank you for sharing.
Thank you, I am glad you liked it.
Mate you are a genius ...I'll use this technique
Thanks for that. I'll have a go at that joining technique this weekend. Like your videos.
Very good technique, simple, easy and strong bonding.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it.
I've Always had problems cutting angles, as they say there's more then one way to skin a cat, you just made my life that much easier, thank you for this video.
Glad I could help, thank you for your comment.
nice to know this kind of technique. another idea to work on my plant holder ...
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. I wish you the best for your project.

дякую,треба буде спробувати
Super idea
Thank you very much.
Very nice work well done
Thank you very much
Good master!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome...👍
Thank you.
Yes this has been my preferred method for a while now. Makes it simpler and don have struggle with getting the angle dead on.
Yes I agree nice and simple.
@@GavinClarkdiy Also I have been using a lot of old bed frame angle and that shit is hard a awedding prick and makes the friction saw blade want to squirm and wander especially on a 45! So that's when I started doing them like this! Also just found your channel and love your other videos! Watching them is like a vacation for my brain! Lol, keep up the good work Sir!
@@tomwyrick2824 Thank you very much Tom, I appreciate your comment.
