Ow wow Jimbo, thanx for sharing all your knowledge and expertise, I have made many square tube gates in the past and many times wondered how the professionals do it. You are AWESOME.
Subscribed for that cut orientation mistake at 2:32 and how you made it part of the story, thanks for the honesty and the work you put into your videos, Jimbo.
Grease fittings are not needed on the hinges. I have over 60 year old greenhouse doors which are open several times each day with the same weld on hinge. The only thing is that you have to replace the brass washer every 15 to 20 years, then put some grease inside and your done. They never made any noises, except when you slam them. Happy holidays to everybody from Germany!
I have to say your work ethic is admirable. Your willingness to share a mistake is rare in todays world. But the end result is worth the wait. If I could give 2 thumbs up, I would.
Jimbos garage do not be afraid to turn the amperage up on your mig set, the flat bar can take the heat, this will help get the throat length of your T fillets more flat. Good fabrication work 👍👨🏭
I’m a carpenter and just getting into the welding world, love this channel. Gonna drop the hammer on a R tech mig and a nice table like yours, looking forward to getting stuck in and building a security gate for my garage.
Nice gate mate, i used to make steel doors and windows every day and one tip with the weld on hinges is to use a piece of rod the same id as the hinge pins that can go through all hinges as you tack/ weld them on.. (so in this case a piece of rod several feet long) this is so the hinge centres are in alignment and the gate isnt trying to fight itself as it opens/closes as what we saw is that over time they can break due to fatigue, we also welded both sides of hinge if possible. Hope this helps! Nice work
It’s 4am in the morning and I can’t sleep so I’m watching your Channel because it’s one of the best on RUclips and you’re not frightened to let people know that you made a mistake we all do it at times keep the videos coming
Thanks for all the hard work making these videos. You have helped me become a better welder and fabricator . Btw, thank you for the Mercer abrasives flaps. I love them. I’m going to order a couple of your shirts to wear on my job sites
Regarding the rubber plugs. Their OK if you are going to paint your project black. If you are going with another color they will be hard to miss. I use the plugs electricians use to fix a steel box when they punch out the wrong hole. They can be powder coated. If your coater says in can't be done show him how they can be racked up with a magnet on the end of a heavy (coathanger) wire.
The overhead garage door is above part of that welding table, plus the roof joists would need to be reinforced. Time to move to a commercial building with more overhead and a lot more room, for features such as a gantry with chain-fall.
helpful tip for everyone. add a little bit of anti seize lubricant to your grinder arbor shafts for easy disc changing without tool. even when the disc gets snagged, it'll be super easy to release the nut
Love your work Jimbo, I'm just learning to weld with no one to guide or teach me. There's a lot of info on you tube but I watch your channel the most. Your such an inspiration, thank you for all your time and effort in making these video's, by you showing mistakes it gives me more confidence in my work. I used to go nuts when I make a mistake like it's the end of the world hehehe. Thanks Jimbo 👍. Your AWSOME!
Nice work..... For grinding down smooth..................And so easy with the beautiful table.............I would have cut the steel tube for the frame "short" to leave gaps at the mitre corners . The gap depends on how you weld , but no more than the tube wall thickness maybe towards half thickness???? Easy to fill and get near full "penetration" Which matters When grinding down for a lovely beadless SMOOTH Pro finnish. THIS ALSO RESULTS IN A GREAT DEAL LESS DISTORTION STRESSES AND PULLING AS THE WELD IS "IN THE METAL" NOT ON ONE SIDE........... Bevelling all those joints would be soooooo much more work top notch setup and squaring great product you are a tidy worker
Just bumped into your channel, nice clean work shop and set up...One thing is you mention how heavy the steel is which doing the same type of work I know....why where sandles and white socks.....@ min 7.35 guess you had come back from lunch and forgot your steel boots..
nice one jimbo,gate looks great ,would like to thank you for all the vids you have uploaded this year ,its been a good one,wishing you and the family a very merry christmas ,and a very happy prosperous new year.........all the best.................dougie
my heart dropped with the mention of your "mistake" Been there, done that and it always hurts.I would like to know if the metal cutting blade is on a standard chop saw ?
I like your grinder stand. Having not yet looked through your video list, have you made a "how-to" video of your stand? If not, perhaps a short video showing the details of the stand. I use several grinders in my shop, (to save time switching attachments), and can see the benefit in making a few of those style stands. I appreciate your video efforts sharing your skills. Thank you, ahead of time, should you decide to detail your stand.
That's a very nice video; thanks, sir. Do you think using a tig welder is practical for making 8m of metal fencing at my garage? I am just a DIYer with a little bit of tig welding experience. My concerns are too much welding fumes made by MIG and also spattering surrounding items. Appreciate your replies.
First time coming across your channel, was curious how you bid a job like that. Also, loved your grinder holder on the magnet! Appreciate you taking time to video your project. Take care.
I made the same gate imagine having a 35 louver of a 2.5 x 1/4 flat bar. It was so heavy that it did bend the rectangular frame upon installation so I have to provide a roller with springs to easy the burden on my hinges and the frame itself
Ow wow Jimbo, thanx for sharing all your knowledge and expertise, I have made many square tube gates in the past and many times wondered how the professionals do it. You are AWESOME.
That welding table is SUPERB!
Subscribed for that cut orientation mistake at 2:32 and how you made it part of the story, thanks for the honesty and the work you put into your videos, Jimbo.
I'd like your honesty , not to many welders accepts their mistakes and you did. I salute you for that👍
I like this guy, hes not afraid to own up to his mistakes.

how do we know you are from Germany? could you prove it?

What a nice gate, and your welding table is awesome. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Vienna 🇦🇹 part time Floridian
Im retired and took welding as a hobby, learning a lot from you! Thanks!

I wish you knew how much inspiration I get from you to do my own projects Jimbo. Thank you for sharing.

very nice job
"This is a design designed by the designer"😂😂
Hey Jim, time to build a small gantry above your weld table and use a chain-fall to move some of that heavy stuff. Future project 👍
The overhead garage door is above part of that welding table, plus the roof joists would need to be reinforced. Time to move to a commercial building with more overhead and a lot more room, for features such as a gantry with chain-fall.
Magic 👐
You are having and mind blowing workshop sir, woow really awesome workshop
helpful tip for everyone. add a little bit of anti seize lubricant to your grinder arbor shafts for easy disc changing without tool. even when the disc gets snagged, it'll be super easy to release the nut
That welding table sure makes that job easier.
Cool looking gate there Jimbo thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching. -Jimbo

@ 7:36 Jesus Jimbo, I see you're wearing your Chinese safety boots again. 😎
Nice welding table.
Looks good! Nice job man
So clean process great job.. happy Holy days!!!
Awesome job Jimbo. Keep up the good work.
If you had a welder you could just weld the pieces back together. And then you have what you needed to work with again.awesome video
I like your Birkenstock’s in the fab shop👍
awesome work you sir are a great teacher i wish you goodness
Hello I live your videos! I learn alot from them. Where can I get a table like that one??
Real good job, so professional and highly precise.
Good idea to use that disk to remove the rust, congratulations you make great videos
Buen trabajo me gusta
Knees, back, shoulder while working. Look into exoskeletons. Search for suitX I recently ran across them. They are expensive but will help.
Are you welding in sandals? Nice!
Great video! Where do I find hinges like these?
Well done job! What is the thickness of the steel sheet?
Love your table. How do I get one?
Very interesting videos n informative

Perfect process Jimbo 👌 also i saw some Russian and chechnians gates they are super nice too
Great video Mr Jimbo. Love that welding table.
Nice clean work.
I am subscribed for sure.
I think that I'm gonna learn a lot here.
I don't think I could ever go back to an abrasive disc chop saw.
