In this video we tackle the exciting project of fabricating a steel tray for Coal! firstly I measured out how long and wide i wanted the tray and then continued with the cutting list seen in the video! I highly recommend doing that as the steel shop was happy to supply cut and deliver the steel for only $550 and they left me with the offcuts witch has helped for the rest of the tray! I genuinely enjoyed this project and how the patrol is coming along! hope you guys enjoy the video and cheers for watching!

@AutomotiveActionMedia 3 года назад

This is a pretty good video! It shows all the little detailed things you are doing. As a boilermaker/sheet metal fabricator, all looks good but the welds haha. Sorry to say! Couple tips, always push the mig, don't drag it, and you guys need a fair bit more amps, leave the wire speed as it is. A fair few welds are very cold and some of them will not hold at all. But other than that, keep it up! You'll keep getting better with practice! Depending on where you guys are, I'm on the Sunshine Coast, maybe I can help set that welder right for yas!

@RoamLyfe 3 года назад

Awesome! The main goal for the day was to just get it to hold together and put it on the Ute! Final welds will be done off the Ute again! And what I will do is go around and grind back all the crap welds and re do them! We are also on the Sunshine Coast, but I wouldn’t expect you to do that!! I can play around with it untill it’s nice and hot!!

@LukeC8412 2 года назад

you blokes are having a go and building it yourself that's the main thing (safety thongs are questionable lol), i find it's a lot more fun when you do it yourself rather than paying someone to do it, and you always learn everytime you do one, can only get better from now on

@pauledmondson439 3 года назад

im a boilermaker and i think for two guys who dont weld everyday u did ok the build is looking good, but next time dont weld the top section where u r placing ur plate as when u put ur plate down u can stitch weld it down but good effort

@RoamLyfe 3 года назад

Hey mate! Thanks for your comment!! Also I’m Going with an alloy floor! I wasn’t going to weld it but I figured it’s better than a crack where potentially sand and moisture can get into the box section! What would you suggest in that scenario!

@pauledmondson439 3 года назад

@@RoamLyfe sikaflex any whole u see but make sure u can still paint over it and sikaflex the alloy sheet when placing the tray down . try and get the corners nice and square so the alloy fits nice and easy

is that 2mm or 3mm steel? im planning on doing mines, but im afraid 2mm is to weak and i think 3mm is going to be to heavy, what you recommend? putting it in a mazda bravo

little bit of advise, you dont need to vertical up on that sort of gear mate, turn up that inverter and verty down. Also dont drag just push. Good fun mate good to watch, nothing better than doing builds with mates

@Sethjxl 3 года назад

Hey mate, where you have the rails sitting on the blocks, it would be good to close off one side of the blocks (so you can still get in from one side. With weight in the back, there is not a lot to stop them from collapsing or folding over from a lateral impact to the tray...

@RoamLyfe 3 года назад

Okay mate I’ll do that! I also thought about welding a large piece of steel to the back of it to strengthen it up! If I had my time again I’d get thicker box for that!

@Sethjxl 3 года назад

@@RoamLyfe yeah that would work, but it's not always worth the added weight... The tray is looking great, good work.

Which one is the best weld? Who is the tallest dwarf? Both ordinary but your right the fat one wins no penetration you can actually see daylight between the weld and the side rail
