#fabrication #montana #welding
As a lot of you know I’m making the move from Florida to Montana. So before the winter hit we decided to head out to my new location and make sure the market was viable for a mobile welder. Well as it turns out there are no welders in the area. So I put a few ads out and went meet some of the people in town to get there opinion on a welding service. I got 3 jobs in a matter of 2 weeks! So I’d say the market it healthy! Here is my first Montana welding job, where I made contact with Bob from Southmont Concrete (which works well, because I needed a concrete contractor!) They where nice enough to let me use there shop and even some of there equipment. I’m excited to see what my future holds here in my favorite place. Wish me luck!

Good luck brother, 29 years as a ironworker working in 10 below zero and - 40 windchill, been in Florida for 10 plus years freakin love it here...be safe..

We always called it a knuckle boom crane. Hydraulic cylinder for each section. Some have a winch on them also. Enjoy your videos. Worked in the logging industry where you don't always have time to get correct parts and have to make due with you have at your disposal.

@FishFind3000 2 года назад

You could look into a small portable inverter welder for mig work and small tig/stick. My buddy has a miller suitcase welder that does it all.

I'm 48 years old and impressed with you and your channel. You know how to do so much. I wish I had gone and learned a trade when I was young. You're gonna be one of those wise old grandpas someday that can make and fix all sorts of things. Your channel is more entertaining than anything on TV. Watching you fix things is amazing as you come up w some creative ways. I wish you the vest in your biz and your new home. Good for you.

Love the view of the mountains there. Hope it works out well for you there. Dress in layers, and never leave home without a jacket. Welding those racks looks good. Fabbing the first is always the slowest. Stay warm. Fell better, you and your wife, and no motorcycle on snow covered roads…😵

I liked your video. I’m a high school student and where I live my town can enroll you into college trade class as electives for free which means I’ll be able to get my welders certificate right out of high school as long as I complete the program. It’s nice to see what some different kinds of welders do because it helps me find what I want to do in the future.

We call it a HIAB crane, HIAB is the company that build these Truck cranes. It's very usual here in Austria. Hope you and your wife getting better soon, but you will deal more often with kind of colds in Montana I guess. The country I came from (Austria) the winter here is pretty similar. We have a lot of mountains (the Alps) and snow. But with all my implanted iron in my body (knee, wrist, spine) I can't stand the cold any more and would love to move to Florida, that's the reason I'm being there during the coldest period of our winter. Kind of snowbird. Wish you best of luck anyway and I like the new Truck. Stay safe and hopefully you guys feel better soon. Tom

I moved to Cheyenne Wyoming from the San Francisco bay 17 years ago, same deal - too many stupid people , too many regulations and I knew eventually some kind of big event was bound to happen and I didn't want to be stuck . Life is unpredictable so enjoy it where you are happy ! If you ever roll through Cheyenne stop by . Charles

I don't know if you're still using those quick connects, but I highly recommend switching to the Koike ones. They're a good bit more epensive, but well worth it. I've never had an issue with them even with salt on the roads in winter

@sebastiannai4381 2 года назад

Cool Anthony, hope Montana is all you hoped for. If nothing else the contrast with Pinellas will definitely give you a richer life experience and break up the mundane nature of living in same place for too long., I appreciate your work ethic and hope he was happy with the end result.

If your quick connect ends keep freezing up, you can melt them down with the exhaust of your truck, usually have to do it that way myself. Always keep air line antifreeze with yea if your doing lots of gouging or work with air lines from compressor

You should always use a resperator or at least a m95 dust mask after a while you really start to feel it not only welding but cutting disks and abrasive disks ex grinder flap wheel whatever you use or call them are not the best thing to breath in i used to care what people thought or said but now I'm all about ppe eyes ears and lungs wish I would have realized this when i was younger the damage is already done
