the painting of the trash and recycling logo was a really nice touch 👍
Thank you very much!
Really cool, I just thought blue is for trash and green for recycle?
“The price for the cans isn’t great”, understatement of the year holy cow! But they look great brother, I want a set for my future garage now 😂😂
Another great video Andy, every single one is a improvement!
🤣 You nailed it, understatement no doubt! And thanks brother!
welding tissue paper is the hardest thing you'll ever have to do in your life. I found some smokeless, self snuffing garbage cans that I want for my shop, but they are like $450 each. not for the faint of heart with that price tag. It looks like you where able to do better than that.
As I slowly converted the garbage can from sheet steel to being made of all welds, I thought to myself: "What the heck. I'm not really this bad, am I?" Heartens me to hear that I'm not pure garbage at welding! 🤣 And holy buckets to those trash can prices. Probably worth a followup here to make them from scratch...
I highly recommend calling around to scrapyards (not junkyards) and seeing if they'll sell you steel. You know how to weld and shaping thin steel isnt difficult and it's a trash can so it can look bad.
Uh, Did we watch the same video? This was not welding
"It's a trash can so it can look bad." Good call, you nailed it!!! Might be fun to rip the roof off a junked car and turn it into a trash can, who knows...
Maybe pop rivets would have been easier, than welding, with how thin those cans are.
Yeah good call!
Weld job has some room for improvement : )
Ha, just a slight, continent-sized bit of room... 🤣
Great video, Andy. I was glad to see the Wissota grinder make an appearance. I would have just gone with a magnetic hook instead of the nail, but thats just me. I was actually thinking of changing my rag bin to a metal can with a lid as I'm currently using a five gallon bucket. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Jeremy! Also -- I CANNOT BELIEVE I didn't think of the magnet trick... to anyone watching this, yup, just use a magnet hook.
Thank you and keep up the great work as well! Also what the, I thought I was subscribed to your channel? Not sure what the heck happened there.
Being able to hang the lids like that is gonna prevent you from closing them. If you're really serious about safety, you'll need a trash can where the lid is always closed, and there just isn't a way for it to stay open. A pedal bin would be a good example, it'd just have to be upgraded for workshop use.
Never forget: a safety system that relies on humans will fail. Not if, only when.
Looks totally legit :`) LMFAO
Seriously though, would be cool if the lid doubled as a dust-pan (I know this conflicts with the "mostly air tight" requirement for fire-retardant properties). Mr. Covell, hear me Senpai!
Yeah that lid looks straight out of a factory, no doubt… 🤣 And good idea on the dust pan!
Your weld is too hot for the work piece perhaps.
Yeah. There was a lot going on there! But still worked out in the end.
@@AndrewReuter there is welding, and there is sheet metal welding, two totally different skills. sheet metal welding is much harder when it is the thickness of tissue paper.
LOL, YOU THINK THIS CART TURNED OUT AWESOME. YOUR QUALITY OF WORK IS SUB PAR. EVERYONE THINKS JUST BECAUSE THEY OWN A WELDER, THEY CAN WELD...LOL IT TAKES YEARS OF EXPIERENCE TO MASTER THE ART OF WELDING.
Interesting ideas here! You're the first one here with a comment like this, so I'll throw some thought in on a reply:
--YOU THINK THIS CART TURNED OUT AWESOME: Yup! The cart didn't exist before, and it does the job, so it is 100 percent better than previous state. The welds are MONSTROUS but I can revisit this later when I'm not trying to sneak in projects at 1 a.m. when everyone else is asleep. If they break before then, I'll slap another bead on there!
--YOUR QUALITY OF WORK IS SUB PAR: Yeah, in this video, I definitely set aside my perfectionist tendencies. The trash won't mind, I don't think. 😆 I'd rather do that and get on to the next thing than spend a year on a trash can...
--EVERYONE THINKS JUST BECAUSE THEY OWN A WELDER, THEY CAN WELD: If you own a welder and can connect two pieces of metal together with it, you are welding. Questions of professionalism are separate from this.
--IT TAKES YEARS OF EXPIERENCE TO MASTER THE ART OF WELDING: This is 100 PERCENT obvious to me. People who do this for a living, spending thousands of hours honing their craft... they're just at the tip of the spear with their first 10 years I'm sure. Totally deserve the compensation and respect they earn as master welders, to be able to consistently put down good beads in different scenarios where it really matters for safety and quality. I'm reminded of it every time that I try to rush through a welding project that I just need to get done. Eventually I'm going to have the time to take a class and spend some nights putting down just beads. But I'm almost certainly never going to get to master status. And if that's what it took to pick up a welder, well, then no one would ever BE a welder. So hopefully people watch this, see some of the absolute ugliest welds ever shown on video, and are inspired to know "uhhhhh if that guy can do this and get his work done, I think I can probably do better, so I'll give it a try." That's my goal, NOT to act like this is all it takes to be a member of the welding profession.
Hope that makes sense! Have a good one!
