$500 in 2 hours (Emergency Welding Repair) 

Anthony, I saw you have a Miller Trailblazer. I'm a certified Miller service center and wanted to give you a tip. Never jump start a Trailblazer new or old. If it has a dead battery make sure the ignition is in off position. Remove battery and replace it. When you start it with the new battery, verify that it is charging at 13 + volts to make sure the voltage regulator works. It could save you a couple thousand in repairs. I see this frequently.

Great video, You touched on things seldom spoken of. 1 Obviously you understand your customer base . 2 First aid kit ,3 right tool for the right job that jack was excellent. 4 The conditions , in the dark , rusty material, you Sir have talent .

Everybody wants to be a welder, until there's welding to be done after hours.

I feel your pain when you notice the price of that small chunk of angle iron. Lowes scalps the hell out of their customers with steel

I love those emergency repairs not just the money but because you have a chance to get someone back on the road again it's a rewarding feeling!

Great job under less than desirable conditions and at night! You just have to wonder why some people just don’t maintain their equipment before it becomes an emergency. I hope you made a lot of $$.

Good job! Been welding on the farm for 40 years and have had to fix some crap like that. As far as what you charge goes- that's between you and the customer. You told them a price and they accepted. Ignore the youtube idiots that said you charged too much

Doing what you do... making it happen. Be proud of the reputation you're building haus.

Anthony, you are real hero and such great inpiration to all of us. I hope the customer appreciated your skill and service. Cheers.

Out of all the jobs I hate, repairs on rusted broken frames is #1. Glad to see you got it done. Haven't seen you for a while.

I figured the " emergency " was gonna be ....the carnival ride I welded flew apart and now they are looking for me so I got to leave the state !!!! 😆🤣 cool video style on this one brother

Nice repair! Those people are lucky you offer after hours service!

That's some spec ops eyewash. That guy has loaded that boat before under less than ideal conditions. Great video!

500$ for an after hours 2-hour service call, seems a little underpriced but if that's USD, I guess nearly 700$ CAD makes sense with the exchange. Thanks for putting up videos like this, I'm at college right now taking welding and I hope to have a business like yours in the future.

You handled the problem and didn't rape them on after hours call. I think you were very reasonable on price. That is how you have grown your business, honest, quality work. Stay safe and God bless

Nothing wrong with that job to get them on the road 👍👍 Cheers from Nova Scotia

Genuinely just curious as to Y not turn that top piece of angle down /\ like so good work tho

Thanks Anthony. Ive been watching you over the last couple years and you're my favorite on here. Great stuff!

I watch a lot of welding videos to learn and the thing I like about this one is that it is more typical of what I end up working with... rusty metal in the dark welding in whatever position I HAVE to weld in (though I do confess in my earlier days to actually tipping a trailer on its side to avoid welding vertical and upside down). Rarely am I welding brand new little billets on a pristine welding table in perfect temperature with perfect light and perfect hand support... The only thing I think I would have done different was that last angle piece you welded on top. I think I would have welded it V down (corner up) and welded both edges as I think that would have been even stronger and would have looked better. Others can chime in and agree or disagree...

Ending left me speechless. Earned my like 😂🤙

For cracks on metal you HAVE to put a small drill hole at the stop of the crack or it will just crack the rest of the way

The company I work at would have charged over a thousand for that call!! Great job!!

You saved another person butt!! Good job thanks for telling us amperage again.. we are all learning

500 is a steal at that time of the night, nice work!

Just a suggestion for the future. 6011 is a great trash rod, but 6013 gives you a smoother cleaner weld.

It just does my heart ❤️ good seeing a welder 👨‍🏭 operating a grinder

Love the closing message 😂 Didn’t know they had eye wash kits like that, definitely getting one!

Been watching your channel for a while now and I love the content. You do a good job informing your viewers on how and why you do your jobs the way you do. Thank you

Great video and an excellent repair as all ways. No wonder it’s rotted out keep going in to water. Feel for your eye there’s nothing worst than crap in it hope it’s ok.

Did the exact same this friday. Firewood delivered to my door is a good swap i Norway 😅 Good job as always Anthony!

Anthony looked red eyed at the start but dangit boy if he didn't get it done, and done fast. Thanks for sharing metal man.

Love that you would have relieved their whole week with that repair, your service does more deeds then some

A lil tip i picked up from a friend that doesnt ever wear saftey glasses is if you get metal in your eye, you can put a little magnet in a rubber glove and gently rub it on your eye. Its kirda a last resort if you cant wash it out, but it might save you a trip to the emergency room and the mass of money that comes with that trip. if you leave it in it will actually rust in your eye, the white of your eye will turn yellowish (he had some pictures of when that happened to him, the bit that caused it fell out like a month later without any permanent damage luckly)

The video reminded me of an old friend of mine, who in the mid 80s started doing roadside repairs on 18 wheelers. Due to drive offs, he had to build this spiked piece of pipe to put between their tires that he would remove once they paid him. He also had to start carrying a shotgun. All because he got ripped a few times. Keep this in mind when doing roadside stuff.

I love your channel cause it shows real life shit. Every job isn’t always going to be sunshine and rainbows. Even the best welders run into unexpected problems all the time. Its about how you adapt on the fly, and Anthony is good at getting shit done!

Awesome video dude. Your a hero that day.

That was a good video. Good job welding that. I got a hope he's going to replace The tongue on that at a later date. To get rid of all the sketchy metal.

Fine work as always. Love your the work you do. I hope to be in your position soon. Keep the good work up

I like your jack i use the same one on my dullytek dhp7 to press fresh frosen flower or bubble hash

You just earned a subscribe with what people can do if they don't like the video.

feels weird you having a camera man/woman . i like it though.

Good job helping them put an end to a miserable night at Bayport. I sure hope we don't see a trailer with some rusty angle iron holding it together backing a pontoon down the ramp all summer.

Looks decent, price is fine, customer is on the road - I don't understand the problem some posters have.

My buddy does some metal stuff and has had to have metal removed from his eye before and last time I had some small but strong magnets and he got it out so we ordered him a 1"x"2"x1" and he has used it several times since obviously it only worked for iron not aluminum or stainless but still I'd keep one around

Great videos, sir. I just found your channel and only had one question (maybe I missed it). Did you ever replace those marker lights you removed. It looked like you welded your one side piece halfway over the light hole. Thanks again for your well filmed videos.

all the nighttime action looks great...... good job and your camera gal is rocking it out..... .this is one of my favorite videos of yours. Bravo.....Paulie in Orlando

You're like mechanic Mike with your Mrs on the job with you 😂👌

Not gonna lie I like the eye rinse cups lol. Definitely gotta get some of those

Fine job sir. That tube on the trailer tongue looks pretty thin for that size of a boat. Just my opinion I'm no engineer. I'm not a certified welder but I weld decent and often. When I weld thicker plate to thin wall tube, I aim my rod mostly at the thicker steel and "whip" it into the tube real quick so I don't burn through. I can see there is good penetration, but if anyone who reads this is a pro can you please advise me if this technique is no good?

Tough job. Well done.

Nice repair at good Ole Bayport. Been there many times. Nice job.

Nice content! Nice to see how its going on the field

been there done that, in a snowstorm. Welding in the cold and snow sucks a$$.

Grind corners off top angle you finished with rounded off they tend to do damage on skin

Dude what nice weather I’m still sitting here with snow in driveway lmao working with my yellow rubbers on hahaha

Just a suggestion but I'm going to took some 316 plate and welded on top of that web in the trailer hitch

How do you make the judgement on what steel thickness to use. I assume the trailer originally was a thicker and of course box. But as a patch how do you insure that what you've chosen is going to be strong enough to withstand not only trailer weight but in this case the weight of a boat and the abuse of road travel?

Ahhhh I used to live there, weeki wachee, crystal river. Thank JESUS I don't anymore

I like your SAE350 Lincoln. It wasn’t as well known model and you don’t see them around here as the 200 or 300. Plenty of smoke for those 3/32 rods. Good job!

Its so cool to see experience in action

I can feel your pain man

Lol nice disclaimer at the end there

Nice work, and definitely a fair price for that job!

A machinist I know made $36,000 in a weekend repairing some road construction equipment. It was going to cost the company something like $50,000 for every day they went over and they were like "do whatever it takes to get it done"

Good repair only other thing I would have done was round off the corners on that piece of angle you put on top of the frame

My service truck has a Lincoln electric 225 welder don’t really know how to stick weld but I’m going to practice for shits and giggles

i love the outro's! keep up the good work & the vids coming, Brother!

Is there a reason for putting the angle on top the way it was? I agreed putting it up there helped structurally but the way I was thinking was setting the two legs down so the point was up, for aesthetics and structure or was it a "more welding area" scenario? Keep up the great content, been watching for a while

I’m thinking about starting to do mobile welding, I’ve been doing welding for 2 years but I’m just a little nervous to start off. If there’s any tips you could give me I would appreciate it!

Great job. Been welding some cars, and tools for 10 years. if there was little wind, it woud saved you lots of time using MIG welder with arginmix. In my head, whats important is, weld hold for 10 years. it dosent need to look prity.

YOUR AWESOME JAM UP JOB!!!!

Knew the background looked familiar. Was just at the home depot across from lowes in springhill today lol

nice work as always Anthony👍

Great job shit always happens at the most inconvenient time and place but such is life

He said, if you didn't like then fuxk you. Lmmfao bro we need to kick it, and have a few beers man, 'no Budlight though' 😂😂😂

Hi great channel i would taper the end of the angle iron to stop it cracking at the ends of the welds

Great repair! just found your channel 👍

AWESOME REPAIR , I GOT TO GET GAS WELDER UP AND RUNNING AGAIN

These jobs turn into more regular work. People hear that you're about it. Good deal.

Another job well done 🤙🏾

Weeki wachee, brooksville fl my home town awesome to see this.

guess thats why my instructor wont let me in the shop without safety glasses under the hood

External lights and wiring! In frame wiring and lights are just water ingress points. If you *must* go with in-frame wiring, fluid film the inside of the frame every 2-3yrs, or yearly if you're in the rust belt.

Amazing video

Hey brother i do lots of welding and grinding upsidedown, i really recommend wearing some 3m goggles under your hood. I once got a metal shard in my eye and I’ve work the goggles ever since

What was that eye thing he used to get the metal out?

In all reality my welding experience (I’m in college rn) is less than one year. I will say he is doing an 2f lap joint and a 3f lap joint on the sides. No need to make the thing seem all that fancy. I see you’re running kinda high amps. I just did nearly the same thing reinforcing and securing a tilt trailer into a fixed trailer. All I did was run two 3f passes on the tilt connection with a 1/8 6013 rod at about 100 amp on my old AC Miller shitbox and I didn’t burn through and I got penetration and didn’t have many weld defects besides a little excessive reinforcement on the cap which wasn’t bad I just used a wheel to grind away real quick. But you did a great job and got these guys on the road easy peasy. I’m only saying this for internet welders and fabbers like myself who may not know a whole lot about what’s going on here

A nice little earner that job young man, well done.

I saw you using the water for your eye I got one of can totally relate

My only suggestion would be to do a 100% weld - stitch welding it strengthens it but doesn't keep water out. As it is, water WILL get under the patch and start to rot it out again and not be visible and since it gets submerged it will get soaked under the patch and it is salt water (looks like it anyway). After all, it did already rot out from the water it was in.

500 is cheap for that. Guy needs to put some drain holes in that trailer or it will make it's own

Another A+ repair!! Keep the videos coming!

Lowe's is good. Where else can you buy metal in an emergency after sundown.

Blowing out my eardrums with that chipping hammer. Haha, headphones.

Very Good Video

My favorite part of every video is when he says if we didn't like his video we can go F%&K ourselves, lol!! I love this channel and I love how he doesn't care about what ppl think. Very refreshing! Two thumbs up

500 for rough weld, no paint, or final finish. With final finish about 725-800

Nice work

Need to hit up the large welding shops in the area. I befriended A guy and brings me all the scrap I need. They scrap anything under 4’.

If you don't check your equipment be prepared for major repairs cause steel won't hold up in water,mud,salt without maintenance check's and it's a simple thing to do
