Slicker than snot. I am following this series so I can build a new one to go under my torchmate table too. Thanks for the great pics and ideas Jody!!! Wheelchair Bob
As far as the frayed jeans go, you're just a tough guy! Been welding since 1971 and only caught on fire about three times. Boy, do you feel it! Not all of us can afford the fancy garb that goes with welding. Don't beat yourself up, you're doin' just fine! Bob O. out!
I really like this series! Jody, all the meterial I had put into the down draft, on my plasmaCAM table was going to be used in a manual table I had prior plans for, but your design, of it rolling / protable, at least within in the shop, down draft table, is pisser! I know how it is to work in a small shop, moving it around the shop or moving it around under a larger project, I like the thinking :) Keith
would really like those drawings you were talking about.. got a new plasma cam last week and really need something like that.. Its my first CNC machine and boy plasma dust is like flower. its gets everywhere.
swaff off road . its a website for off road stuff and also metal tools...Troy is a good guy too. just google swag off road and you will find it if your interested.
thanks Keith, this one is 30" square and about 34" tall...I am already thinking 24" square might have been better for the sake of moving it around and to get better draw. We will see.
well i think if you get the right filters it can save some years of your life, i got the same with pads for welding aluminum and it does save you from having a bad headache after a whole day of aluminum welding, espicialy when your doing mig :P
Jody, you should get your paws on some Blue Demon wire and see what your think? I believe it's made in Australia. I've been having a lot of feed problems with Lincoln wire this last year, it gets jumpy coming off the roll and really buggers up the show. Nice project as always!
Jody, I have tried those 3m masks,i really hate the rubber against my face . A Japanese feller gave me a mask they use in Japan ,oh man are we missing out. It has a fabric washable cover that goes over a soft rubber face seal. I have worn it for dam near 12 hours with minimal discomfort.
Gidday Jody AussieLou here :-) As always enjoying the Videos Have just started going for my 2G & 5G full Tig any chance of a down and dirty rundown on how to pass these welds for both Xray and Bend Tests!.................Regardless as always am lovin your work and remain a disciple!
the respirator really doesn't mater since what makes you sick is the gas form of zinc oxide which is just as capable at going the the filters as air. i use that type of respirator at work for PAC but it does nothing for the zinc oxide. milk helps though.
I am thinking about making one like that. Just out of curiosity about how much time and money do you have in this project. Thanks so much for the video keep up the great welding.
Hi Jody, Love your videos! Unrelated to this video, I saw your video on welding helmets/face shields, well done! My problem is: In lieu of purchasing a $500 welding helmet, can you recommend something in the $100-$200. range where I can actually see the work I'm welding as well as the puddle?
Dumb question alert. Could you run a clothes dryer hose from the internal funnel into a drawer full of water, and create enough suction to pull the air out of the dryer hose, through the water and outside? The water acting as an air filter. Basically, a giant steel bong.
Hi, I have learnt a lot from your video's so great wk, but just wanted to know what is the name of the bench you are using, its just what I have been looking for, thanks
Jody,Thanks for the great videos. Did you ever put up the drawings for this somewhere. I want to make one of these this week. Slightly bigger and slightly different but very similar. The drawings would be useful I am sure.Thanks, Ed
Ever considered showing people how to make things square with a tape measure? I NEVER use a framing square. They can be off after a certain distance I'm sure u know this tho. Just thought I'd bring it to your attention. Thanks
measure the 2 sets of opposite comers distance from each other. if both opposite corners measurement is equal in length you are square. no need for a vid for that
The only people who don't make mistakes are liars and people who don't do anything.Besides what you make are errors, much more acceptable. (lol ) nice work..
please excuse my ignorance but do you place the tip of the plasma cutter on the material your cutting or do you leave a gap? thanks for all you do on your channel. I've learned quit a bit.

Jodi, thanks for another great video...my welding has gotten much better since I've found your channel, thanks mucho...
Was waiting all week for this video! Finally holding my breath for part 3

Cotton dont burn easy by sparks or heat. Propane heater exploded in my kitchen and got burned but not where i got cotton clothes on

Looking good Jody, thanks for sharing with us !!👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you for making the video. I always learn something from you. Thanks again!
@BigBodySmallBrain the 2097 filters do have a layer of activated carbon that do offer some protection from fumes
swaff off road . its a website for off road stuff and also metal tools...Troy is a good guy too. just google swag off road and you will find it if your interested.
Appreciation is mutual, thanks for posting.
@gamble1997 I fabbed up the whole thing, welded it to the point where 2 casters were done. Probably over 130 inches of weld
This is something I really need to build for my powerplasma cutter.
thanks Keith, this one is 30" square and about 34" tall...I am already thinking 24" square might have been better for the sake of moving it around and to get better draw. We will see.
Awesome, can't wait for the drawings.
Great video and a useful and interesting project indeed.

thanks for listing the fume hood i was looking for one.

I applaud you for your bluejeans.
Worst case scenario you catch fire, and a cotton fire you can wipe out with your hand...
Any one seen part 3 I cant seem to find it. jodie said he was going to post up some plans??
@SILVERHORSE347 I can cut them off and weld new ones in 10 minutes. Why would I regret that?

I want to make one too for my powerplasma cutter but smaller. I don't have much space in my shop.
love it thanks
Look`s Good!!!
so I prob missed it but how long did you weld with the portable tank?
Great vid man. I can you those drawings if you like
May I get a copy of those plans please?
So how long did the little co2 tank last?
that plug weld hole did look like your profile lol.
whats the "swag" sticker on your helmet mean?

Why are not you using another thin glove?
nice

Hypertherm offers a "drag tip". Put it on and pull down the line. Easy stuff
Co2.... "399" as in 3.99 ?
I have lit some pants that way.

Really, welding the casters on, you may regret that in a couple of years.
* i can make
heavy heary😣"
