There's a lot to the production welding I didn't realize before I started doing it back in my younger day and learned fast the importance of the proverbial jig, I'd have to make 3 1/2 units per 8 hr shift to get top pay (piece work) and maybe rework some that didn't pass inspection and still do the jobs setup for that 8 hrs..it's was a year and a half of learned something daily. Makes a mind twirl some but it was fun. Thanks for the chatter here Richard, memories don't pass till you do (my memories and my passing) !!

@stanwooddave9758 4 года назад

You may want to build an adjustable "crane" for the 15 feet of gun welding lead. Nothing outrageous, maybe from some 1.75" inch pipe thin wall, (6' Ft. long) and some 1.5" inch pipe thin wall.(4' ft. long.) Ideal, the "fall" of the welding lead, should be to the middle of the welding table. The crane should pivot equal to the center of the table. If you want, hit me up via E-Mail, I have a "MAST" design from March 2004, I'll send to you, DXF format. If I remember correctly, I was copying from a major manufacture of welding supplies. With the mast in hand, you just need to build a vertical (adjustable 6'ft. to maybe 10' ft) support, wouldn't take much.

I called my local welding supply they don't even buy it for that price from their supplier. I also get 44 pound rolls of mig wire $70 , cant beat that. Ebay is a great source for a manufacturer. Hi volume lower prices. This is where the money is made. Of coarse i'm good at material prices but I need to work on speeding up my production.

@@42Fab I get it. Heck the proper name for the what powers most cars and trucks is an "engine". But, NASCAR and the other motorsport organizations call it a "motor". I design machines, fixtures, and jigs for a living and some of my customers, who are themselves engineers, would poo poo anything that was mislabeled. I used to use jig and fixture interchangeably, but I can no longer do that.

Jig is very critical to keep spec's within it's torance's, thank's for showing this part. Do you buy wire in bulk for discount? Shop I worked out of bought pallet at a time. Love the big shop, the big table's, weld er up. Production work having good set up help's on production time saving money. Look's like Quality is key in production, being consistent from start to finish is harder then most factory in. Moving part's on jig's have to be checked, QA engineer that can read spec sheet's saving time but QA, is expensive. So doing all the assembly on this job you all killed it. Nice work.

Guessing about $4900 in materials, and $9,800 in labor. Working in rough numbers of course. Do you total your materials and mark them up, or do you mark them up by item? I use a sliding scale, the less an item costs, the more it is marked up. Using a rough rule of thumb labor is typically double the materials.

Hey do you have a video on what buisness you built. As in s-corp, llc, soal.... what insurance do you have and what does it cover? What licenses did you have to have, what permits with the city? How did you go about getting it all set up? Thank you.

@42Fab 3 года назад

Something like this is possible, but a limited topic as each area is going to be different. We're an LLC, require worker's comp, most cities in my area require a license, which is just a "pay a fee" tax in disguise, permits for each job (again, mostly a fee and making sure any electrical is permitted or allowed), Everything but the insurance is a matter of calling the city or state to get it started. Insurance is about shipping for the right agent to handle your needs. There are tax benefits over an LLC, but when you're starting out, or have a high reinvestment rate, they are not worth the additional admin costs.
