Love those Fabrication projects. Also love scrap piles! I try to keep mine organized as I go to it so often.

Nice job. It's always nice to use spare items and turn them into something useful. You're right though. Something practical and works is always better than making it pretty and is breaks. Lifting that trailer was definitely a nice test. Definitely not lightweight lol

I weld for a living and your welds looked good. You are crazy welding without gloves. Keep making videos I enjoy watching them.

@Ezrider359 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you. I'm sure there will probably be someone who thinks every weld should look like that stainless Tig fusion weld they saw a picture of and say my welds look like crap 🤣

I saw the hangnail on this video and thought 'truck rails' so maybe I was picking up something from you! That's a GOOD thing and so are the forks. 10/4 on the non roll back on standard stuff. A little beats nothing and raising stuff up high to get it is a bad deal. End up on the nose if not careful. LOTS better the way you did it. A-PLUS, Ezra and Blessings 2 yall!

Check scrap dumpsters at fork lift rental joints, we used to throw about a half a dozen away every month that had plenty of life left if operator doesn't drag them everywhere.

I have been needing to make some fork extensions. i have been wanting to use some frame cuts i have as well....just have not taken the time to do it......maybe this will motivate me! looks like your plan worked out well. i bought my pallet forks for my skidsteer. i bought a set of 5. sold off 4 so my set were basically free. they are the ones with the front pass through....much easier for a short guy to get in and out of the machine!

I was just pulling a 5th wheel off a truck yesterday thinking I could use some extentions for these forks....lol or maybe I just need a gradeall

I got a guy that runs an end dump in my yard that buys take offs I dont want ......I'll give him 4-6 tires at a time for Like $100 and he'll run em locally till their slick. Yeah I could get more as casings- But Id rather help out the guys in the yard.

I like to hang onto some of my usable take offs for when you cut a tire on a weekend or stuff like that you have a few tires you can use until you can go get some new ones.
