  • MIG Welding Metal Project Shelf Bracket Bookends. This week we are fabricating bookends that could also be used as shelf brackets using a scrap motorcycle sprocket and some 2" flat bar. Last week I fabricated a metal and wood floating corner shelf so I decided to add some custom book ends. This is a fun DIY How To beginner welding project that would make a great gift.

    Hi Brandon, thank you for the best informative vids on RUclips, since starting out on welding not so long ago I have trolled my way through hundreds of vids on RUclips trying to get to grips on how to set up a Mig Welder and weld with one and then I found your RUclips channel and have learnt heaps of stuff that I did not get form the others. So again a big thank you.

I wish I lived closer, I found two 7 gallon out of date propane tanks for $5.00 and am planning on making another aerator. I would just give you one.

    • @ChristopherSalisburySalz
      @ChristopherSalisburySalz 2 года назад

      It's a pretty big investment and he doesn't do a whole lot of grinding. I would love to have a 2x72 belt grinder with variable speed though. They are really kind of replacing bench grinders in a lot of shops these days. They can do everything a bench grinder can do and then some. They also take up quite a bit of space.

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  2 года назад +1

      Every time I do a project where I radius edges I always wish I had a belt grinder. I've thought about building one. Maybe that will be in the near future. My shop is small and they take up a decent amount of space.

      Stick is by far my favorite process. I learned on an AC welder so I'm real acustomed to running 6011's. We will see how the YesWelder runs 6010.

    How do you decide when to clamp ground to the table you are working, vs the work piece? Are there any safety concerns to be aware of when clamping to the table?

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  2 года назад

      Great question! Pretty much the best bet is to attach the ground directly to your workpiece that way you are getting the proper voltage without voltage drop which will also give you nice clean starts and it will also prevent your work piece from getting arc marks from where it is trying to make contact to the table. Smaller parts that I need to manipulate a lot I will generally connect the ground to the table simply for ease of use because i'm not working around a ground lead.

  • @ajsironworks3937
    @ajsironworks3937 2 года назад

    Not a fan of synergic because sometimes I gotta turn the volts up in case a weld joint makes my stick out a little further than normal. Does the yes welder let you set it yourself or is it synergic all the time. Cool project. Looking to eventually get a evo metal saw too. You are kinda talking me into it.

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  2 года назад

      @AJ's Iron Works it's primarily set on synergic but by toggling over to voltage you can independantly adjust your voltage in incriments of 1 volt from +9 to -9 above or below the synergic setting. I like that it;s very simple to use.

    Very cool project. I’m looking for things like this for my son and I to learn and practice on. I just bought a YesWelder and I’m having trouble setting my material thickness. You said 1/8” is 3.1. This may be painfully obvious, but how do you get that conversion? Love the channel!

    I don't understand the silver streak pencils. They are almost the same color as the metal. Jimbo on Jimbo's Garage (pretty cool RUclips channel) reccomends these silver colored pencils as a cheap alternative to the silver streak. I bought some and they blend right in with the color of the metal - I lose my mark if I take my eyes off it. I like using a fine tip black sharpie or something similar to mark metal.

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  2 года назад +1

      I agree Christopher. I have found if you keep it sharp the line is more visible. When it starts getting dull it seems like it glazes over and tends to blend with the metal like you mentioned.
