Okay - there is one thing that I would suggest as an improvement on this - a bevel? I think on the locking mechanism - so that when you shut the bin and the lock is in the closed position, it wants to Lock - like a Gate latch. Hopefully I am explaining it correctly.
so how many Bananas can you fit in the bins ? I was think of some kind of rope too hook to the bin so you could pull the dump latch while sitting on the lift ?? but that might just get in the way .. great job on building them bins ..
2 things is better over kill than not enough over kill and where's the welding cap from ic weld lol keep up the awesome content y'all hope ur weekend is going awesome be safe and cheers from California:)
I love the fact that even the bins in the workshop have to be dead-on square, the sign of proper craftsmanship, I would expect nothing less from Kurtis.
I just completed a simple project and have a couple of paint runs. Now, thanks to Kurtis, they are added abrasion protection! So much to learn from these great videos! Thanks to both of you for the great work and skills.
Sat at my kitchen table....pretty much a full english breakfast in front of me, a nice cup of tea and watching this on the telly....dont think it can get much better than this.....
My Father was a welder and he would build projects like this at home including a stainless steel picnic table that got so hot in the Summer time that you couldn't sit on it. (but it kept all the food warm for hours.) He even welded together a steel Christmas tree for Lukens Steel In Pennsylvania where it still sits on top of the main warehouse to this day. He even built us bikes that never...ever broke, but were very heavy and very hard to pedal. Watching Kurtis make stuff like this make's me yearn for those days again. Miss you Dad. Great work Kurtis
Love the Bins! Only thing I would change personally is making the bottom a clamshell door so you can springload both the opening and closing, put it on a lever or string and not even have to leave the forklift to operate them!
I've just sat and watched a guy make bins for nearly an hour. Seriously, how do you do it? No matter what you are making, the videos are always awesome.
Yup, me too. I do wonder if it would be convenient to run a cable from the handle on the new one down to the bottom of the forklift rack so he can just open it by lifting it up enough to pull the cable taut.
He could add a foldable or removable bit of round bar to the release handle, so when its time to empty, just fold them out then bump it on the side of the bin :) I say foldable or removable to avoid those "ah fuck" moments when he kicks his shins with them haha
As you lower the bin the release handle could touch the lip of the dumpster and release. The handle would need to stick out and be inconvenient the rest of the time.
Hello from West Texas. I start a good day watching Kurtis work, Karen film and Homey play. I am 81 years old and learn something new everytime I watch Kurtis on a project. Keep them coming.
California here...(don't judge) and just turned 82. Fascinated by Kurtis' skills, attention to detail and the way in which he handles all sorts of very heavy items.
Paint runs are now called "Added Abrasion Protection". I'll have to remember that one. A good fabricator knows how to accentuate and turn a flaw into an advantage. Love it!
Kurtis and Karen, I love you both so much. If you want to come and visit Turkiye one day, you are definitely my guest. I will be honored to host you in my home. Your videos always make me better. I learn a lot of things, my morale improves and I become happy.
Simple, robust, well thought out, designed to purpose, and cost-effective. Sorry, Kurtis, but nobody sells bins like these -- you have absolutlely smoked the competition.
The 'Bin count' meter was priceless. Saying the spray runs offer abrasion resistance is like leaving spatter on because it provides a gripping surface. This was one of the best vids in a while even though it wasn't as technical as the others. Thank you guys.
Kurtis: "That's one done, I need to make five more" Me: 5, 50 or 500, I don't mind. I would watch every single one of them being made. This channel never gets boring.
If you have the release lever straight up, you can hook a rope or a chain to it. Then when emptying, rest the bottom of the bin on the lip of the skip to unload the mechanism, pull the chain from the driving position and then drive forward to empty. Then to close the bin, reverse her up and use the lip of the skip to close the bin. Probably make the rope/chain removable for when they are sitting in the shop.
Those bins are awesome! I really enjoy these shop builds, especially when you build without a plan. Kind of like me when I get out building the little project for Dion. A lot of the time I have to design as I go. And Karen, your editing inspires me to try to edit my videos a little better. Take care guys, have an awesome weekend.
Hey mate, as always thanks for your support! Karen is such a perfectionist with editing and always looking to improve how she does things! She is a trooper, working hard behind the scenes to bring it all together. Appreciate your comment, keep crushing it!
My dad used to say that anything you don't prime deserves to go in the garbage - but I think it's fair to say that some things you don't prime deserve garbage to go in them! Well done!
The yellow sticker on your machine ("Nett hier...") is awsome, i found them all over the world in different places. tbh. i was happy when i found one "down under" in your shop.
I appreciate how respectful you are with the material you are working with. No slamming, slow placement in position, no dropping ,tossing scrap cut offs etc. Thank-you for a professional workshop and presentation, also many thanks to Karen and Homie (sp) ??
I work a grave shift in the states, and every Friday's lunch is spent watching you guys. Your editing skills continue to get better. Pet Homeless for me please =)
Great design Kurtis. So much easier than the tipper bins (is there anyone who hasn't dropped the swarf bin in the recycle dumpster?) or a wheelbarrow. And no wheels that need to be replaced every 5 or 6 months! Thanks for showing us how it's done, guys. See you next week. Cheers.
Well that no-wheels approach is practical only if you have a full area overhead crane (or easy forklift access to anywhere you're going to put the bins). Still, horses for courses, it works in his workshop.
Cutting those hinges perfectly between the sections and them being perfectly symmetrical to the bin made me a happy man, love your work Kurtis, gets me through the weeks away from home!
Would still love to see a video on what happens with all your scrap. Fascinated to see how/if they separate out all the different grades of steel, aluminium, bronze etc.
I love the way you go out of your way to make sure everything is actually square, even when it's a shop project that is going to get battered by large lumps of heavy metal pretty quickly. 👍
Kurtis, the sign of a true master is how easy you make it look. Fabulous editing as always. Love Homeless and the birds... *sounds of all panel beaters slashing their wrists*
Those viewers that haven't shot and edited video footage may not appreciate the quality of the video but I do. Providing a balance of normal speed and increased speed footage that is pleasant to view takes some thought.
Karen, you should try filming welding through another welding mask or lens! I know there are even welding lenses specifically for cameras, but they're expensive. I've seen some incredible videos of welding filmed just through another welding mask though! As always, excellent job with the videos! 👍🏻
Clean functional design and the usual attention to detail in the build. That fork truck certainly earns it's keep - fork lift, assembly and welding bench, painting fixture and heavy haulage - you'd be lost without it!
Excellent video. I just realized that in countries with an English tradition they call those barrels "44 gallons" I knew them as 55 gallons or 200 liters. Greetings from Patagonia Argentina
So weird. I noticed the small tipping bin on an earlier video and wondered if that was custom. This was yesterday, and boom like magic, here you are making some new ones. Love your work.
Hey Kurtis! If you put a big 45° bevel on the underside of the latches, they could latch themselves onto the bosses while putting the bin down, without pulling on the levers. And of course proper craftmanship and camera work, as always!
My first job EVER when I was 13 (back in the 70's) was sweeping and trash pickup in a truck semi-trailer repair shop. A 55 gallon drum full of old brake linings was barely possible to move, let alone empty into a dump trailer and retrieve! Sometimes I left the whole can if it fell off of the fork truck pallet funny or if it got smashed. I'd try to push them off the pallet so they landed about upside-down. Thanks for the memories. With Aloha...
Hey Kurtis - excellent work as usual. Just a quick thought though - do you think you could weld on a bit of ‘handle’ sticking out 180 degrees from the existing handle - that way you could lower the bin down until that new bit of handle caught the edge of the dumpster and popped open the lock mechanism, that way you would never have to leave the forklift to empty the bin. You might even be able to do some fancy fork lift operating to close the bin by landing it on the ground, although you might have to tweak the locking mechanism for that. Just a thought - thanks for another excellent video!
Those are some darn swish Bins 8, it's a pleasure to see that no matter what the job is you're a stickler for perfection Kurtis. Another a mighty slick edit of the reel Karen. Woof Homeless...
I love watching your layout and sequencing on your projects. I'm pretty-much self taught (aside from a welding class about 50 years ago!) and I've learned a lot from my years of watching you, Kurtis. And of course, Karen is our transmission line between Kurtis' action to our screens! Thank you both, and the birds & beast as well!
Hi Curtis, I love your videos and so does my father (he’s 82). Always amazing and always inspiring and a credit must go to your wife as the editing is brilliant and ultra professional. Your overall content keeps viewers glued as there is no nonsense and edits are to the point and keep the interest alive. I wish I lived in Oz sometimes as I would love to tour an installation such as yours. Keep up the brilliant videos and I will keep watching…. GUARANTEED.
Ah, at last it's friday. Having a cold one and watching Kurtis doing his stuff. 20 degrees Celsius here in Sweden, beguinning of summer and 4 weeks of mandatory vacation comming up in july. Have a good one everybody
@CuttingEdgeEngineering just giving the recognition where it's due... The two of you are truly putting out some of the most educational, entertaining and down to earth content on the platform. Always happy, always humble and always loving the animals and life around you and the shop. Kurtis is truly my biggest inspiration for learning how too machine and plan on the fly in the workshop. He teaches so much, in such an easy to understand and grasp manner, you would swear that he used too lecture engineering at a university.
Standard Kurtis Overkill is what makes this channel the best. You guys go that extra mile and it shows in everything you do. I would love to have a box of that swarf to make Damascus blades.
Hey Nigel, you're awesome! Thanks so much for the super thanks contribution and supporting the channel! We're glad you enjoyed this video and the forklift one too! Cheers! - Kurtis & Karen
Thanks for feeding my CEE addiction 👍👍 On Patreon I made the comment that these are Goldilocks bins because they are just right. Thinking more: you have got three of them - the three bears, and with their drop bottoms I think it is reasonable to call them drop bears. 🤣🤣 All the best, Paul
I am always picking up new ideas from YT guys like you. I've been working in and around machine shops for over 63 years, and there's always more for me to learn! That was a great way to bend the off-set handles and pretty quick and easy. Thanks Curtis!
Metalsplinter would be a great utube name. CNC are big uses of metal bins. Maybe in the future there will be more test area & less bins. A tidy shop also helps with finding that part that fell in the bath bay.
I really enjoy how you two interact in the out takes. You're having fun and the genuine joy in the smiles and laughs is so great to see and hear. Great work as always.
FABrication excellence. Extra abrasion protection made me smile, and it looks like you have a train driver subscriber getting in on the act. Have a great weekend Karen and Kurtis. WOOF! To Homie and the Butcher family.
Things to consider: Tube stock instead of Right angled section because of sharp corners... Forks enter the tube and reduces the chance of misinterpretation when lifting. Casters/ball rollers integrated in to the door lid to aid manoeuvring in tight spaces? The lid, Internally a chamfer at the lead edge of the door, so dumped swarf fines don't get caught in the edge when skipping... Door release mechanism. Would have gone for a rolling pin rather than a latch. No springs required and likely finger injury's are less. But as always, a cracking job Curtis. Definitely a forever project and not made for replacement anytime soon!
Мне нравится смотреть, как ты развиваешь свою мастерскую своими руками. Контейнеры для стружки могут показаться мелочью, но даже к этому вопросу ты подошёл с мастерством и ответственностью, с которыми ты делаешь любое дело. И, конечно же, всё это очень качественно снято и смонтировано, почти всегда смотрю видео без перевода и всё понятно даже так. Спасибо за видео 👍

I have OCD; when I make stuff everything has to be plumb, square, aligned properly, consistant tolerances etc.. I wonder if Curtis is OCDish?
@@BrewPub "CDO Adjacent" (with the letters in the proper, alphabetical, order ...as they should be! 😃)
Seeing Kurtis pull off these projects without ever creating a napkin sketch is very impressive.
Plus bullet proof heavy duty!
@@BrewPub No.
Anyone can do it wrong.
Next time I get a paint run, I'm calling it added abrasion protection. Thanks Kurtis.
Thanks for the video, Karen.
that was funny indeed!
Thought I might have been the only one to catch that...
I just completed a simple project and have a couple of paint runs. Now, thanks to Kurtis, they are added abrasion protection! So much to learn from these great videos! Thanks to both of you for the great work and skills.
I used to say “Rubs don’t rust”.

livin' the dream mate!
oi! innit!
Can't get more Bri'ish either! x'D
I'm in New Zealand, so it's whisky or wine!
@@wwfeatherston for breakfast? country of alchies!!
Kurtis, you’re a student of your craft and a master of your profession! Karen, you have Hollywood quality videography and editing talent!
She has the gift of gab. The video descriptions are legendary.
And the cutting edge engineering... speaks for itself.
It's workshop stuff like this that people often don't think about that are so important.
these are definitely making the best difference in the workshop already!
628 pounds of swarf???!!!
@@StringDriver
That’s a lot of stuff, thank you for translating the kilos vs pounds
Are these weekend jobs ?.
@michelmcgilly yes I do believe these are after hours/ weekend jobs just like the crane project
Drop bottom bins they make the rockin world go round
😂👌
@Spacekop I see what you did there (Queen) ✌🎵🎶👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering your misses can spell a fixed , we make stuff , shell spells thankyou 4 good woman 🤫
I think you just named them! “The FBGs” - it will really help with saying “bin” too many times.
Bin of my life, don't desert me. You've got lots of swarf, and now you leave me...
My Father was a welder and he would build projects like this at home including a stainless steel picnic table that got so hot in the Summer time that you couldn't sit on it. (but it kept all the food warm for hours.) He even welded together a steel Christmas tree for Lukens Steel In Pennsylvania where it still sits on top of the main warehouse to this day.

Miss you Dad.
Great work Kurtis
Willing to bet he never paid a bean for any of his "homer" jobs either? Lol. One piece at a time my friend, just like Johnny Cash!🤣🤣🤣🤣
OMG!!!! I KNOW THAT CHRISTMAS TREE!!! That was your pop!!! AWESOME
@@francisschweitzer8431 Yep. Yeah he was a talented Dad. Thanks
Love the Bins! Only thing I would change personally is making the bottom a clamshell door so you can springload both the opening and closing, put it on a lever or string and not even have to leave the forklift to operate them!
You just created a product that A LOT of companies can use. Not just a machine shop! What a great way to show an inventive product!!
i thought it can be a product, too.
Not a novel idea, they sell these already.
Did you not see the part where he said you can buy these already? He just saved himself some money by making them himself.
Putting the stickers on at the end was just the perfect finishing touch
I've just sat and watched a guy make bins for nearly an hour. Seriously, how do you do it? No matter what you are making, the videos are always awesome.
This is what I watch every Friday morning having my coffee. Never dull & always different.
not to mention he makes that one hour vid seem like its only 10 mins long🤣
You have to admit, they are pretty AWESOME bins!
If you're going to watch bins, these are the watching bins...
@@Tasarran I've bin watching.
Man, I love work. I can watch it all day.
I have such faith in Kurtis’ forklift skills that I was fully expecting him to unload the old swarf bin with a hands-free kickflip or something.
Yup, me too. I do wonder if it would be convenient to run a cable from the handle on the new one down to the bottom of the forklift rack so he can just open it by lifting it up enough to pull the cable taut.
Indeed. Watching Kurtis load work pieces into the machines with the forklift is one of (the many) highlights of this channel.
He could add a foldable or removable bit of round bar to the release handle, so when its time to empty, just fold them out then bump it on the side of the bin :)
I say foldable or removable to avoid those "ah fuck" moments when he kicks his shins with them haha
Another wonderful video
As you lower the bin the release handle could touch the lip of the dumpster and release.
The handle would need to stick out and be inconvenient the rest of the time.
I see a good side hustle of Kurtis making these to sell. These are really well made waste bins!
The press arrangement for the offset handles is very clever!
Hello from West Texas. I start a good day watching Kurtis work, Karen film and Homey play. I am 81 years old and learn something new everytime I watch Kurtis on a project. Keep them coming.
Oklahoma here & only 75, I do with you on those ideas
@@dirtfarmer7472 Alabama here, only 72 and I have watched CEE since their beginning -enjoyed each and every episode and rewatched some with friends.
California here...(don't judge) and just turned 82. Fascinated by Kurtis' skills, attention to detail and the way in which he handles all sorts of very heavy items.

Paint runs are now called "Added Abrasion Protection". I'll have to remember that one. A good fabricator knows how to accentuate and turn a flaw into an advantage. Love it!
And here I am, thoroughly entertained by a dude making some bins. Quality viewing as always
I think that blue would look amazing on the franna crane
Kurtis and Karen, I love you both so much. If you want to come and visit Turkiye one day, you are definitely my guest. I will be honored to host you in my home. Your videos always make me better. I learn a lot of things, my morale improves and I become happy.
Simple, robust, well thought out, designed to purpose, and cost-effective.
Sorry, Kurtis, but nobody sells bins like these -- you have absolutlely smoked the competition.
I cannot imagine watching another channel making bins. Kurtis, it was a pleasure watching your ideas come to life.
The 'Bin count' meter was priceless.
Saying the spray runs offer abrasion resistance is like leaving spatter on because it provides a gripping surface. This was one of the best vids in a while even though it wasn't as technical as the others. Thank you guys.
well, you cant argue against it. :D
The "added abrasion resistance" is a case of what we in the computer biz define as if you can't fix it feature it.
Kurtis: "That's one done, I need to make five more"
Me: 5, 50 or 500, I don't mind. I would watch every single one of them being made.
This channel never gets boring.
That's a fantastic job I like your design. I'm 75 years old and and been welding and fabrication for probably 60 of them. It's never too old to learn.
If you have the release lever straight up, you can hook a rope or a chain to it. Then when emptying, rest the bottom of the bin on the lip of the skip to unload the mechanism, pull the chain from the driving position and then drive forward to empty.

Good morning Kurtis, Karen, Homeless, subscribers, and all the other animal denizens of the CEE workshop. Top of the day to ya.
The animals are an integral part of the joy as well, totally agree with you.

I really love the 1970’s split screen playback. Excellent video editing Karen, well done 😊😍❤️
Those viewers that haven't shot and edited video footage may not appreciate the quality of the video but I do. Providing a balance of normal speed and increased speed footage that is pleasant to view takes some thought.
The care and attention put into those bins is an accurate indication of the level of work from this shop.
This is always the best shop class available. The videos with Homie and your corvids with a pretty song are frosting on the cake.
The transitions between high speed welding and real time with the sound of a single weld was a really nice touch 👌
Drop bottom bins you make the rocking world go rooooound.
Added abrasion protection,that’s a good one
8:27 AM here in Indiana watching Kurtis...no better way to kick off the long weekend !
Paint runs !!
Cosmetic protection 👏😎👍
Coffee, Karen, Homeless & Curtis! Good morning fea Scotland. Take care & stay safe!
Bedford UK here. What a frantastic upgrade to the shop. Lots of chips so they all have been working hard on so many other things.
There's just something about a clean, organized workshop that makes you feelbetter about working there...
Kurtis, it's never overbuilt; it's quality-built by Kurtis! Videographer by Karen, and supervised by Homie! CEE is quality in all aspects!
Karen, you should try filming welding through another welding mask or lens! I know there are even welding lenses specifically for cameras, but they're expensive. I've seen some incredible videos of welding filmed just through another welding mask though!
As always, excellent job with the videos! 👍🏻
Not sure why, but offsetting the handles to give them more clearance to make them easier to grab is very satisfying. 👍😊
Clean functional design and the usual attention to detail in the build. That fork truck certainly earns it's keep - fork lift, assembly and welding bench, painting fixture and heavy haulage - you'd be lost without it!
Kurtis is so proud, this is probably one of his bucket list things.
You can bet that if kurtis is going to make a bin it will be the best bin in Australia by far
Well done Kurtis and Karen!
Excellent video. I just realized that in countries with an English tradition they call those barrels "44 gallons" I knew them as 55 gallons or 200 liters. Greetings from Patagonia Argentina

New bins for the chickens! Very nice project Kurtis and expertly photographed by Karen as usual! Cheers
As a custodian, I am jealous of you dumpsters. Those are beautiful.
Added Abrasion Protection. LOVE this !
Hey Kurtis!
If you put a big 45° bevel on the underside of the latches, they could latch themselves onto the bosses while putting the bin down, without pulling on the levers.
And of course proper craftmanship and camera work, as always!

Like clock work!!!! Every Friday morning at 9 a.m sharp we are treated too the best engineering channels newest upload😁😁😁😁😁😁
thanks for the support mate!
@CuttingEdgeEngineering just giving the recognition where it's due...
The two of you are truly putting out some of the most educational, entertaining and down to earth content on the platform. Always happy, always humble and always loving the animals and life around you and the shop.
Kurtis is truly my biggest inspiration for learning how too machine and plan on the fly in the workshop. He teaches so much, in such an easy to understand and grasp manner, you would swear that he used too lecture engineering at a university.
Standard Kurtis Overkill is what makes this channel the best. You guys go that extra mile and it shows in everything you do. I would love to have a box of that swarf to make Damascus blades.
Thanks for all the vids, I really enjoyed the forklift one as well 😜
Hey Nigel, you're awesome! Thanks so much for the super thanks contribution and supporting the channel! We're glad you enjoyed this video and the forklift one too! Cheers! - Kurtis & Karen
"did get a bit of run on the paint but that's just added abrasion protection"
quality aussie energy.
Thanks for feeding my CEE addiction 👍👍
On Patreon I made the comment that these are Goldilocks bins because they are just right. Thinking more: you have got three of them - the three bears, and with their drop bottoms I think it is reasonable to call them drop bears. 🤣🤣
All the best,
Paul
Your comments are always great to read Paul and this one was one of the best 😂👍
I am always picking up new ideas from YT guys like you. I've been working in and around machine shops for over 63 years, and there's always more for me to learn! That was a great way to bend the off-set handles and pretty quick and easy. Thanks Curtis!
Yes!!!! I was sitting here waiting for a new video. I almost gave up and went to bed !!! Now I have something to watch !!!
thanks for waiting & watching we hope you enjoy it 😄
Always enjoy the vids. Started welding and fabing stuff when I was 15yrs old !!
I love the timing of when they come out. Just a couple of hours before I go to work.
Metalsplinter would be a great utube name.
CNC are big uses of metal bins.
Maybe in the future there will be more test area & less bins.
A tidy shop also helps with finding that part that fell in the bath bay.
I really like your filming. No rapid movements. And the fast - forwards on the tagging process gives a nice effect.
I like the way you think Kurtis. Build it stout, build it once.
Overkill is highly underrated!
Im an 71 year old german Ingenieur and i love your Videos
I really enjoy how you two interact in the out takes. You're having fun and the genuine joy in the smiles and laughs is so great to see and hear. Great work as always.
wieder mal eine tolle Arbeit abgeliefert und die Restebehälter in Eigenbau absolut Spitze und eine Menge Geld gespart, Super.
Def cheaper and better to build your own, get exactly what you want/need and you can make them as heavy/light as you want. Great work
Pulling of an all nighter and now breakfast with a little CEE before bed. I've been looking forward to this all week!
My weekly reminder that Kurtis's work ethic is heads and tails above mine.. Beautiful work manufacturing those.
FABrication excellence. Extra abrasion protection made me smile, and it looks like you have a train driver subscriber getting in on the act. Have a great weekend Karen and Kurtis. WOOF! To Homie and the Butcher family.
Things to consider: Tube stock instead of Right angled section because of sharp corners... Forks enter the tube and reduces the chance of misinterpretation when lifting. Casters/ball rollers integrated in to the door lid to aid manoeuvring in tight spaces? The lid, Internally a chamfer at the lead edge of the door, so dumped swarf fines don't get caught in the edge when skipping... Door release mechanism. Would have gone for a rolling pin rather than a latch. No springs required and likely finger injury's are less. But as always, a cracking job Curtis. Definitely a forever project and not made for replacement anytime soon!
Мне нравится смотреть, как ты развиваешь свою мастерскую своими руками. Контейнеры для стружки могут показаться мелочью, но даже к этому вопросу ты подошёл с мастерством и ответственностью, с которыми ты делаешь любое дело. И, конечно же, всё это очень качественно снято и смонтировано, почти всегда смотрю видео без перевода и всё понятно даже так. Спасибо за видео 👍
That old feller is what we like to refer to around here as a "rascal". Good to see some actual work being done around here. Cheers.
