Who needs to remove internal weld seams from steel tubing?! Makers EVERYWHERE that need two pieces of square steel tube to 'sleeve' together, that's who! That little internal weld prevents two pieces that 'should' fit together from doing so but removing the thin bead of steel from the ENTIRE length of the outer piece of square tube is nearly impossible... UNTIL NOW!
This video shows how you can make a Version 1.0 "Seams Impossible" tool just like the one invented by Matt Jackson of Next Level Carpentry. This clever invention cuts away the weld bead from inside a piece of 1 1/4" square steel tube OF ANY LENGTH completely and almost effortlessly so that a piece of 1" square tube fits neatly and smoothly inside!
To take the invention to a whole 'Next Level' I collaborated with Greg Porter of @Greg's Garage who contributed his insight and abilities to develop a Version 2.0 ''Seams Impossible" tool that is easily adaptable to remove that pesky weld seam from virtually ANY SIZE square steel tube regardless if the seam is centered in a face of the tube or not!! This link is for a video on Greg's Garage Channel that shows the fascinating process of his CNC in action making a Version 2.0 tool out of a small billet of aircraft grade aluminum. Follow along and you can make one of your own, provided you have a CNC in your shop that does more than hold the floor down: • Can you Remove a Weld ...
If you need to remove internal weld seams and lack the ability or interest to make one, just hit this link... it will take you directly to Greg's Garage Web Store where you can buy your very own V2.0 Seams Impossible tool: gregsgaragekc.com/
Even if you don't need a Seams Impossible tool you NEED to check out the S#*@ Welders Say video on the Greg's Garage Channel on RU-vid (it includes 'adult language' but is tastefully done... even if you question the adult-ness of the welders in the video 🤣) • $*#t Welders Say

Yes, the Seams Impossible removes internal weld seams quickly. The extra 39 minutes of the video are an in-depth look into the design of the tool, actually showing viewers how to make their own tool. But I suspect you're more interested in posting lame comments than to appreciate such things...

This is pretty good at what it does.. but fireball tool shows a simple DIY tool that takes 10 to 15 min to build and uses I high speed steel scraper inside a scrap slug uf the inside tubing size and you simple use all thread and a impact to draw it through any length tube you want. You could strip a 10 foot long section in minutes.

@mdunbar008 3 года назад

This is definitely a viable idea, we have been using the same tool to remove weld seams from square tubing for over 40 years. Ours is a bit different in that we actually have a separate block for each size tubing, but we only cut 3 sizes. We used a smaller WIDTH block and put various bolt on shims on the sides in order to shift the tool to hit the weld seam, as it changes location with every batch of tubing.

20 years ago, I had a build that required square tubing to be sleeved. I found a distributor for the Plymouth Tubing Co. that makes 4130 seemless chromo tubing, round, square, rectangular. Its very strong, yet easy to work. By doing the math, I figured out what wall thickness allowed for sleeving. Success was obtained for both square and round. Still, seemed tubing is easily available... Great design... kudos!

@gnusndn301 3 года назад

Excellent video I could have used 30 years ago. I'm too old to do it now but I used to make power miter box saw stands using square tubing like you're doing with your stand. I ended up using smaller gauged metal to get past the seam weld. The first thing that came to my mind was what if your seam is off-center too far to reach it? I suppose you'd have to pick out your steel when you purchased it. I really enjoyed this video and followed every bit of your problem solving with each step. One way to fix the loose-fitting problem is to put the welded nut tightening mechanism on the corner of the tubing. Thanks so much for this video.

@scottlear114 3 года назад

I really like your tool and video for the Seams Impossible. I am an electrician with 35 years in the trade and experienced mostly in commercial and some heavy industrial work. In your video you mentioned collaboration with other trades to come up with better solutions to issues on the job. I also came up with an invention a few years ago and as a result I expanded my tool collection. This made me search out someone to do machining for me. Most shops I found in my area do highly precision work for aerospace and performance automotive. They weren’t interested in my work. So I proceeded alone. The best tool I have in my tool box is a willingness to work with other tradesmen. Some of the projects that I’m most proud to have been a part of involved working together to hand over something that was exactly what they wanted. By working with other trades I’ve learned a lot about other trades made some good friends and a background that keeps me going with my projects. My current project is making a mount for a train bell from the 1850’s, I’ve got train track, large structural lumber and finish woodworking along with metal work. It’s been a really cool project. I’ll be purchasing the Seams Impossible, I ran into the problem you found the answer to. I got past it with a rotary file and extension, but what a pain in the neck. Nice tool, great idea

@NextLevelCarpentry 3 года назад

Always nice to hear from like-minded folks Scott... hope your train bell project goes well! Feel free to post comments about any projects you do that are made simpler with the Seams Impossible... we're anxious to hear how the tool gets used 'out in the wilds'! Best, Matt

Great idea for the use of the bearing Matt . I made one very similar using a piece of uhmw nylon cut to a 5'' length and a 6'' long 1/4 diameter shank , 1/2 dia carbide burr with the shaft hole drilled through the nylon at an approximate 2 degree angle . I use beeswax for my cutter lube and have for over 30 years, doesnt fly off the cutter like thin fluids and it is very easy to apply. I tried pushing the bit through as well as pulling and also ended up pulling it. I have used this tool on square and rectangular tube from 1'' to 2'' .very much enjoyed your video.

@NextLevelCarpentry 3 года назад

Thanks electricman... I really like your idea of using a 2 degree angle to get cutting action out of a 1/2" diameter burr since they're a LOT less expensive than the $55 I paid for the 3/4" one seen in the video. Great minds think alike, right? Best, Matt

@aerialrescuesolutions3277 3 года назад

The half inch burr makes way more sense, the cost alone is a reason to add the angle you mentioned. Plus, the bees wax is a better agent in many applications. Stay safe, Jim

@NextLevelCarpentry 3 года назад

@@electricman5010 thanks for clarification! Is there a maximum tube length restriction on your tool? Doesn't sound like it but I'm not able to visualize the angled shank/shaft design without imagining it being limited when the angled extension encounters the inside wall of the tube.

Tap that sucker in a little way and use a rebar or a square bar to tap and push it through. I once saw that dude make a pipe out of a piece of plate.

Hi Matt, Superb lateral thinking! Just wondering, for adjusting to multiple tube diam and even round tube, could you have a sleeve with roller wheels that spread with a screw action to each side and above that would allow infinite variation without the need to make custom sleeves. Could also be used to offset the tool. Mount it behind the Seamless so that it gave room for the Mechanism? Would it be tooo fiddly. Maybe greg could put his thinking cap on.....

@NextLevelCarpentry 2 года назад

Thanks for watching and commenting on this Peter... I like the way you think. Greg and I did a fair amount wrestling with the 'adaptability problem' with Greg doing more than I. Greg went beyond thinking with prototyping etc and, if you check out "The Ultimate Kit" on this page you'll see his clever solution: gregsgaragekc.com/ Although sleeves and shims are less elegant than roller wheels they are considerably less expensive and less 'fiddly' too. I imagine a roller-wheel system could be contrived with a NASA scale research budget but would result in government budget pricing as well 😉 I tend towards optimism and you just never know when another lightbulb moment might occur and result in a Seams Impossible 3 though...

@NextLevelCarpentry 3 года назад

@@1966cambo that is definitely your prerogative... I find it interesting that you see buying a carbide Burr as more of an issue than buying threaded Rod welding Machining and buying tool steel and having to make a dedicated tool for each size of tubing and weld seam location but that's me and I'm definitely biased towards the seems impossible solution which produces a much cleaner Surface after the weld is removed with less physical effort...

There are several ways to remove the weld if it is in the middle of a face but when the weld is way off to one side, the options are limited.

@@NextLevelCarpentry Keep in mind just how much clickbait is on RU-vid. Show then tell, avoid burying the lead. I see this all the time , complaints like that are an issue of product demonstration and understanding, NOT an attention issue. You've solved an incredible problem here that creates a lot of possibilities so it's easy to disbelieve it could be so simple and people are leary of spending a lot of time to find out if they've been tricked or mislead. There is a reason why videos that demo the final product,or technique, at the beginning seem to get higher views,engagement, shares and increased Sales. You can see this on tv build shows too with the optimized cliche: Soft intro > demo > hook to watch the rest of the build > intro.

Have you thought of making a slight angle in the block to get the slight over cut you need for cutting the interior weld. Great idea and video content. I think you have created something very special that will be helpful to so many people.

@RobertLee-ni9ox Год назад

Absolutely Brilliant idea. Ive struggled with this issue far too many times

@mcgeorgerl Год назад

For my 2" wide belt sander build, I took a piece of solid 6061-T6 about 12" long and machined it to a square that would just fit inside the tube. Then I measured and machined a groove that would fit a 5/16" keyway broach. I now have a keyway mandrel that will guide the broach over the internal weld and cleanly cut the weld excess away. Rather than cut a radius on the mandrel to fit the tube, I just cut a rebate on the 4 edges since the heavy wall tubing I was using did not have a consistent internal radius in any of the corners. I also cut long brass strips of shim stock to make the shims needed to move the broach about .010 per pass until the weld was removed. I'd make a pass from one end, then flip the tube and run a pass from the other direction. Since our Dake arbor press would not accommodate the length of the tube and extended broach, I had to use the hydraulic press to get the broach about 1/2 into the pass, then I could switch to the arbor press. Also, watch out for different tubing manufacturers because they are not all made with the weld in the center and I ran into some tubing with the weld offset to one side which required me to cut another broach slot on the opposite side from where I cut the slot for the centered weld. I also used a broach that was already a bit abused with a chipped tooth and I wouldn't recommend using a good broach since the weld material seemed to be fairly cruddy. Since my tube stock came out of a junk pile and was fairly rusty, it first got dunked into my electrolysis rust remover system to get the tubes as clean as possible. Overkill? You bet! But I had access to the materials, and it was more of an exercise to prove it could be done this way.

For reversing...or cutting the weld seam from the opposite end of the tube, just turn the sleave around to offset the burr to the other side, since the tube is reversed. I love the idea...patent the tool, I see there is a large market with fabricators being everywhere. Nice job.

@jclements007 3 года назад

In the round tube fabrication industry, the internal seam weld is removed using a scarfing car. It's basically the same concept as your tool. It spins as it's pulled through. You can't spin in a square tube. It's good to see guys like you solving every-day issues.
