And all these years I used Jumper cables or a short length of weld cable and a couple pair of Vise grips. This is a much less barbaric and elegant solution. I might just have to build me a couple sets. Make great gifts too. Thanks Jim

Could have used a gold bar to reduce the cost.

Mill it to dimensional perfection then hand sand it till its pretty. 😀 Besides this evidence no one will ever know about that paralax error. :-)😂

2 a.m. Just got in from the shop, making a repair to some steering linkage on our YT4000 mower, and find a few new items on the plate. Good to see you at it again. I'd be hoarding those copper shavings for making aluminum bronze.

That sign behind your right shoulder made me laugh. When I was a kid the neighbours across the road was an Italian woman and her New Zealander husband. He played golf. One day we heard this loud Italian accent say: "Don'ta you washa your dirty balls ina my sink!"

I have your channel marked and have not been getting notification. I’ve watched your videos for a long time and even though I come and check on you periodically I have not been getting notification when you put a video out and I’ve noticed that was some of my other favorite channels.

Welcome back, you’ve been missed. It’s been too long. I’m not sure. I dig the new editing routine with the pictures inserted and too much text. Looks forward to your next video please don’t take a lot of months.

If the welder is grounded he's gonna get a shock....

@DoRiteFabrication 2 күн бұрын

@@gibbsey9579 The "ground" lead on the machine, and earth ground have the same potential. The machine bonds to the earth ground through the earth ground in the wiring in the shop. The work will have the same electrical potential as earth ground. This ensures that there is no potential difference between the work, and "earth" to cause a shock in the idle state.

@proof6930 Күн бұрын

@DoRiteFabrication No. The 'ground lead', which is really a work lead is not connected to ground unless someone does it thenselves. It is not grounded through the welder.

What a waste of valuable material. Sure can tell the sponsored video makers from us home shop guys. Could have cut that out wit a saw and saved all that material. Doesn't really speak to us much for us home shop guys. Not saying it was a bad idea, just doesn't work for most of us, but hey you got your video ou for this pay period.

@DoRiteFabrication 2 күн бұрын

@@kimknowles3681 bla bla bla. It's not a sponsored video...at all. I bought that hunk of copper from a scrapper with my money I earned and my FULL TIME JOB . I bought it at scrap value. I get it that you have your opinions, that doesn't make it a fact, so let not talk like it is. I made this project because I wanted to, and I have used it a lot since....thanks for watching.
