@@sheetmetalwork Could you please fabricate kitchen equipments. I am literally burned out of my job paying me a bare minimum. I opted to try my luck in learning how to weld and if God permits could earn living here in addition to my profession. I hope you can consider it. More power to your channel. Thank you
Ok. Layout the flat cheek and calculate throat/wrap length. Trace an opposite cheek that will be the eventual "drop" cheek, but don't cut it out just yet. Then layout the wrap/throat and measure the length of the "drop" side of the wrap/throat. The difference of the flat wrap/throat length and the slanted side length of wrap/throat is then divided by two and physically drawn on to/added to the ends of the throat and wrap of what will be the "drop" cheek. Cut, ez-edge, kink, Pittsburgh, and assemble. Will not work on extreme slants, but works on most. If transition is central, use an imaginary flat cheek. If the elbow sets up or down, more triangulation is required but still can work.
@@sheetmetalwork thank you for responding! I need to become more proficient at transitioning- branches, offsets, risers, drop cheek elbows. (Anything with a radius that transitions). Also round reducers and square to round. I have made some via your excellent videos. I just wish I had an official reference book of the trade. I am 56, I did not go to school for this. My buddy taught me, but I lost him before he could teach me everything. Thanks Duane!
@@sheetmetalwork Having trouble getting proper guages of sheet metal. Any chance you could post a chart showing correct 28 and 26 guage metal with min and max tolerances? Thank you Duane.
Great teacher
Thanks for watching
I adore you. Hopefully, I can learn your ways easily. Thank you so much!
Thank you! I’m pretty sure that you will.

I also enjoy shortcuts 👍but only after spending a little time, learning and doing it the long way. lol
@@dropcheekelbow9110 well said!!!
and I agree on your explanation. Triminology often works WITH EXPERIENCE.
@@sheetmetalwork
Triminology!! I'm stealing that!
Hi Duane, could you please refer me to a good instructional layout book? Thanks in advance.
@@Oxatolla there is no one book that covers it all. My question to you would be what type of fittings or products are you looking at developing?
