My Sheet Metal Bender Video: / ortsrrpzwk
In this video i built sturdy doors for my garden shed. The original ones were very flimsy and don't look very good either. And now I don't have an annoying padlock anymore. I got the material for it from the scrap yard and it cost me next to nothing. So I then adapted the design to the material. If I had had to buy the material, it would have cost a lot of money.
It was a nice Weekend Welding Project or two and I am very happy with the result also with the wood filling.
Thanks for watching

Thank you for the many ideas this inspires. The use of recycled material coupled with the application of both tig and mig and the way you demonstrate the various metal working details without dialogue is epic. Now to my project - two gate entrances and a basement door. Looking forward to your next video.

They look very good, but fyi there is nothing secure about those doors. You have straight access to the screws holding the frame from the outside and the cilinders stick so far out you could break them with a big pair of pliers. But that clearly wasn't the point of the video. Kudos to the metalist for the pretty doors.

Great job, the only thing I would have used differently was the bullet hinges, I would always spend a little extra and purchased the type with grease nipples, I’ve used the bullet hinges in the past without the grease nipples and within 12 months they start to bind and even seize up.

I see what you're saying. The outside looks great, but the security is something I'm sure he can figure out. Commercial doors with steel frames wrap around the wood frame on the outside AND the inside. With this man's knowledge of welding, he could add on another piece of metal on the inside of the frame, and the inside around the frame, then weld it to the frame he built on the outside. He'd have his own, custom, commercial metal frame for the cost of the materials. He'd save hundreds and make it much more secure.

Excellent work. I have to rewire my garage with a subpanel for 50 amp service and the first thing I am doing is building a better security door. I will have to do the opposite of what you did on the frame because I am tacking it outside an inside swinging door. Will just install some brackets to put the hinges on is all. Will have to get creative to hide the external hardware though. Might have to rip some pipe into quarters and cut notches to fit the hinges and locking mechanism. Then fit the quarter pipe just right to weld onto the angle iron. The curves might make it look interesting. Artsy fartsy even. I dunno, looks good in my head.

P.S.: Müsste ich mich zwischen der aktiveren Umsetzung wie bei der Herz-axt mit zum Publikum sprechen und der "stillen" Variante Entscheiden, hätte ich nicht mal einen Favoriten. Finde beide echt interessant. Vom Typ her ist die stille Umsetzung altbewährt und gut, die andere etwas zeitgemäßer und "hipper". Gerne mehr von beiden 🙏

I would advise some form of reinforcement in the door here In real terms the only thing holdin your wood to the frames is the screws at the very end meaning that it would be very easy to break in by kicking the wood panel from the door Please consider welding or bolting a few angle iron pieces atleast to physically retain where the cross spars sit

Love it. But please make video on how we can hide the screw. Cz the frame screws are fitted from out side. Any one can easyly unscrew and get in without even touching the door lock. Or have you fitted any from inside for safety. This my only concern. I love the work.
