Put stops on the ends, motorize it. Make a lever arm for the grinder and let the machine do the work. First ever Tank lathe!

Good guy Andrew! All the metal that was blown down in the tornado 3 years ago. You saved and that's like golden now that you have your metal shop.

I'm actually using some of the tornado damaged metal tomorrow.

@TheSpud1129 4 месяца назад

variable speed drive wheels on it and you can make an awesome turntable and set up an auto plasma stand to cut it without you being there. I can help you if you want...I've done it before. It's what all of the tank manufacturers use to weld them together. I am an engineer and designer by the way (in case you were wondering.)

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

I had been considering that. However I've lost my tank contact and not sure how many more I'll be cutting.

@glen748 4 месяца назад

The project definitely got the creative juices flowing. Thanks Andrew. I was going to comment about mounting the blade and then rotating the tank but others mentioned that idea. One other thing I did think of in regards to purging the tank with water. Would filling one tank and then using your trash pump to empty the first into the next one then rinse and repeat. Seems like it could be faster but I don't know for sure. Would use less water and electricity not that is a huge concern for you. Time wise the trash pump would be faster than a garden hose. Again not that you are sitting waiting I know you multitask well. Anyway look forward to part 2.

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

Good points, thanks for watching.

@9009matorres 4 месяца назад

FIRST Also, genius idea. Great work! Now, build something that will keep a cutting torch fixed in place so you can put it right up on the tank and then just slowly rotate it to get a perfectly straight line

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

I have been kicking that idea around for over a year.

@jakemustian99 4 месяца назад

I think the next thing you need is some kind of water fill station where you can fill the tank, then pump it out and recapture the water so you arent wasting 500 gallons every time. Just a thought.

@LearningToLiveTexasHomestead 4 месяца назад

fabricate an arm that holds your angle grinder locked in place, that's spring loaded to keep the grinder on the tank so all you have to do is rotate the tank

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

I've considered it

@billbray8797 4 месяца назад

Andrew, I have a flux core welder and I know you use gas with yours. Would ever consider making a how-to tutorial on the basics. You make a mount for your plasma cutter and you could just spin the tank as it cuts.

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

I've always shyed away from teaching welding. People get hostile over it for some reason, especially the professionals. I honestly still have a lot to learn myself.

Wow that propane tank would make an awesome yard roller. Put two greasable ball bearings one on each side steal tube of some kind and weld up a tractor hitch. You could fill it with water and the weight would really level out the yard and make it golf cart smooth over time. Some people use sand as well to spread out in the yard then run the roller over and rake the grass back through.. Interesting stuff!!

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

Your exactly right and that's been on my to build list.

@LorenTedford 4 месяца назад

@@TKCL I don't know what Bearings are available but make sure they are good ones.. All the ones I see get trashed after a few years because either its a lack of maintenance or the Bearings can't be changed out. I can't wait to see that project lol!! Don't forget to tag the lawn care community because a roller like that is insane for ground leveling and would be amazing for some big time projects like grass runways and stuff..

@LorenTedford 4 месяца назад

Heck some Asphalt companies have been experimenting with rollers similarly like that filled with water and water sprayers not sure what the water sprayers do exactly but I know they have water nozzles before and after the roller while rolling down the asphalt.

@matthewmiller9631 4 месяца назад

Could you have a fixed plasma cutter on the line you want cut and then just spin the tank while the plasma cutter is stationary?

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

It would be difficult to do, the tank can shift on the way around. I would have to fabricate something to hold the tank in the same exact position.

@CptCrackers 4 месяца назад

Ok. Hear me out. Save that middle section and make a giant offset smoker.

@hammerslap5639 4 месяца назад

OK hear me out for a part 3 even though you havent sorted out a part 2. A mounted, high torque motor on a variable speed controller foot pedal, with a rubber wheel to rotate the drum/tank at the speed of your choice with the push of a pedal, and then an arm to mount one of those Evolution metal cutting circular saws to, to help with arm fatigue and boom you have a tank/barrel cutting robot. I really dont think the idea would even be that far fetched lol couple that with being able to variably size the holding wheels to accept different sized tanks and drums and boy you'd be in business.

@TKCL 4 месяца назад

LOL we think alike, I have had that idea in my head for at least a year. I can't really justify it since I no longer have a tank buyer contact. These might be some of my last tanks for projects.
