Hi Joey and staff great videos I like your engine gantry Just a saftey issue all the weight is hanging on the brass welded flat bar on to the round pipe (tick) can you add a static strap chain if the weld breaks boom Carry on its beer oclock here Dee Why Northern Beaches Australia
we should be good the way i welded it and the materials i choice for the job, we will not be lifting anything heavy just the cranks and cylinder heads. quick google search and those are some nice beaches north of sidney. thansk
King 🤴, it's great to see you up and moving better . I did something stupid today. I was changing a hydraulic line on my forklift, fell off of the mast . I was only 6 feet in the air. I landed on my back. Im in a lot of pain, but Im sure it will be worse tomorrow 🙃.
Glad you're mending. Neat looking trestle. I used a 2 high pipe staging on wheels for Jeep engine R+Rs.Joey, seeing the value in those casters 30 yrs ago and now using them is every pack rat's dream. 😎
Howdy 🤠 from the Northwoods of Minnesota. Awesome job n great resourcing. You'll have to get yourself a lightning rod . Have an awesome week. Take care n hope you feeling 💯 soon
I have Harbour freight version of this works great have I beam trolley & Harbour freight electric wintch slides over tear down bench saves old guy luv it stay safe guys cheers 🥂 😊
Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ AC⚡DC you've been thunderstruck 🤘 it seems to have done you good, that roller system for the gantry may be the single most ingenious thing I've seen you do thus far. Very very nice Joey 👍 here is hoping you never get well cuz I think you're just about right how you are😉 Xena, considering your experience and knowledge of heavy equipment maybe you could apply to the highway department. It's just a thought. Anyway guys thank you for another great video 👍✌️🇺🇲🇨🇦ps somebody didn't empty the vacuum canister 😂
thank you, i had to do something for the trolley since no money to buy one, i had 3 bearings so i made them work. yes Thunderstruck by AC/Dc says it all for me, lol thansk
@@kingofobsolete4789 I'm glad you don't have any money, that trolley is ingenious 👍 local Ace hardware move locations and sold off some paint inventory. I got 10 gallons of Rust-Oleum for 50 bucks. All safety colors. I'm painting my boat trailer safety blue
Aaaaahhhh !!! Too bright, I`m blind !! Oh wait, he flipped up his visor, much better ! Just kidding, Joey. I'm jealous because I don't have a Chrome Dome of my own (yet). Anyways, that is some pretty fabulous fabricating with that pipe, and those bearings. Too bad you're no longer in business, really, it's the public's loss. Then again, we'd never get to see all this stuff that you manage to get done in retirement, so I guess their loss is OUR gain.
we did lots when in business to fix things to get people moving again with out waiting for parts to arrive. too bad then never paid me or i had to wait 10 months for my money. now the tow trucks come from 300kms away to tow them back south. oh well, i got smart and now enjoying the good life working and finishing my projects. thansk
Lighting Strike , CRAZY!!! So glad your Okay 👌🏻! Just noticed you use a autodarking hood? Unfortunately I have never had a good experience with them. Still use my Jackson 4x6 hood that has made a few dollars . Have you ever had any problems with the hood you are currently using?? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
the speedglas has treated me good over 20 years now, the dampness in the shop during the raining season effects the batteries so the helmet needs to be in the dry house during that season. i like the fact you can adjust for being outside or inside when darkness required is quite different thansk
yes they are good and i have been using them for over 20 years. a very good idea and glad the fellow invented them. they have improved my welds because i can see before i strike the arc. Sweden has more to offer then just the Swedish Kid, lol thansk
@@skrotjorgenhellqvist6357 it was 2004 when i got my first speedglas welding helmet, remember it well and still have the helmet used as a back up one too. good quality thansk
