@@turbocobra was thinking about your rodeo hah... you've seen fork extensions and pick beams on forklifts. You could make a side pick that slides on. Carry a few sticks alongside the machine. Like 1000 lbs worth or less. After you get it off the truck, short chain to a side pick and walk right in the shop.

Sliding a tube over the adjusters while cutting may be a good idea to keep the threads clean.

@virtualboom 4 жыл бұрын

Just a thought, How about moving the band saw nearer the door and make a roller table that's permanently outside bolted to the ground so you can plonk your materials straight on and crack on with cutting as soon as it come's in less work for yourself and manoeuvring too?

Beautiful work. I learned a bunch from you. If you had to do a bunch of these it might be worth figuring out some "ends" to the tubing so you could get the 10" needed to use your tubing cutter.

@turbocobra 4 жыл бұрын

yea, that was a thought for sure, to tack a 10" piece onto the end of a precut piece. I dont know if that would have saved much time to line that up, tack it, and then cut it loose each time

i made a video a couple weeks back how i price some of the work I do. I keep track of all of the costs of material, and time involved on most of the jobs I do, and I use that as a learning to apply toward future jobs. Did I make the amount I wanted? Or did i maybe charge too much and i could be more competitive in the future? This particular job I can tell you that I WAY under bid it, lol but thats ok, alot learned i can apply to the future
