Talking to a friend about Vevor. Went to read up on Vevor and found this video. I assume it’s a Chinese company “based” in California. Good idea. Answers my suggestion about the fixture holes. I have the same clamps with a 5/8 bolt welded to the bottom. Ditto on bolts from TS.
Great idea, I learned my self about patenting idea for tools. It so simple for another person to change one measurement, angle, even color and they can steal your ideas. HF does it all the time. It’s better to be first to the market and capitalize as much as possible before the next guy
Necessity is the mother of all inventions absolutely love this, and I think I’m gonna make me a couple for my welding table that is very similar to yours
@@TKCLit brings the videos to a whole new level. Makes them feel more of an immersive live experience. You have moved the needle of excellence up several notches. Keep up the amazing work.
Whodathunk - besides you that is. Ingenious gadget, simple to build, pretty cost effective and so versatile. Those should be soooo helpful on your projects👍 You're gonna have the sweetest setup and be the envy of all!
Revashelf makes something for kitchenaid mixers that you may be able to utilize for the saw. Its an undershelf shelf that folds out and levelish with the counter or table.
Marvelous idea, Andrew. I own several Vevor products and will buy more, but I found some 220# mag clamps on Azon for $30 a pop. Love your idea to make sure they were 90 degrees, which makes them more valuable. I love watching other fabbers make good tools and aids to fabrication, so I just subbed, too.
You should think about adding different receiver tubes at different heights so that you may adjust the height of the vise and/or bench grinder. You were holding that Dewalt grinder pretty awkwardly high during operation.
I was channelling you today Andrew, you need a shirt WWAD (what would Andrew Do) 🤣 I did accomplish my goal without killing myself and reused scrap stuff so haven't paid out any money yet, the final bit I just might have to - that being said, Thank You!
I thought the magnetic field may have been interfering with your welding... I didn't think about aluminum. We had some strong magnets at work for our food grade metal detector - they could only be moved in the plant when in plywood boxes. Split a guy's fingertip when one clamped onto a handrail he was passing.
They put aluminium on tge sides and the ends so that it concentrates the magnetic flux in the "middle" (the open but underneath. Remember, the magnet is always on. Putting a steel endplate on there will make it magnetic too...
I figured it had to be for a reason, good to know. The end isn't magnetized when off, but it is slightly when on I noticed. Doesn't seem to affect anything while welding.
Idea: you dont need to patent, really not worth the time. However, you could fabricate the end plate for sale, people would be more apt to purchase the magnet and then your product to go with it. Meaning that many people dont feel confident to fabricate the end plate accurately. Or sell/ trade the idea to Vevor for product?
I paid $54 per magnet, not sure where you are seeing $90. Sign up with Vevor for an instant discount and use this code VVPRO for 5 percent off your order. You must have priced out a higher load rated magnet, or didn't see the discount price under the "retail" price.
I completely disagree unless welding to these while engaged like I did when adding the clamp support. I've already used these many more times on several different projects. Welding to material these are clamped to has made zero difference in the arc or Weld.
You're missing that the clamp can't slide all the way down allowing the threaded portion to go to the table and pin something as thin as sheet metal. It needs the spacing to allow the slide clamp to go down past the cast piece.
@@TKCL Yeah, I got that part but if you weld the same bit of square tube to the steel side of the magnet and then to the clamp, wouldn't you have the same net effect but without fabricating the end cap? Plus, I'd think the original end cap would be a better square "stop", no? Maybe it's 6 or a half dozen but we're all just spitballin' in the shop, right?
shouldn't weld on a magnet.should diassemble to fab Housing is aluminum to prevent case from magnetizing attracting shavings , grinding dust, bolts nuts etc
Why not close a deal with Vevor (don’t know how to spell it) to sell your idea? You think of it and design, they get to patent and sell it for a small fee 🤔
I really want an iron cutting machine like yours, unfortunately no one sells it in Indonesia. manual cutting with a hand grinder really hampers working time.
Yes, the machine makes it very easy to cut large volumes of steel and angled cuts. I hope machines like this are sold in Indonesia. good luck bro, I always watch your content. I hope God answers my prayers to be able to buy this quite expensive machine@@TKCL
They cost me $54 each after signing up a email for their discount and using the 5 percent off code I provided. The big problem is a fixture table this size is around $4,000 to use their fancy clamps. You do the math!
