Make Your Own - Set Up Your Own Workshop Pt 3

http://www.Beck-Technologies.com check out our online forum and sign up for lots more info, tips and tricks, as well as suggest topics for future episodes. Make Your Own - The YouTube tv show made to help people learn about metalworking, fabrication, and setting up their own workshop for either hobby use or business. In this episode we'll show you some basic metal fabrication equipment, the Dewalt abrasive chop saw, the cambel hausfield mig wire feed welder, the Miller Pro Elite auto darkening welding mask, and make a stand for the chop saw with a part stop plate, for precisely cutting multiple parts. Each episode we will show and review more tools, which will be added to the project build arsenal, starting off simple and progressing to more advanced and specialized tools. At the same time our projects will start off as simple helpful things for around the shop, progressing to building things like gokarts, japanese katana's and other knives, to even jet engines. Making your own stuff can save you a fortune, you can custom make things exactly to your needs, instead of relying on generic equipment designed and built for the average user. Unfortunately this makes most products not very useful for quite a few people. Buying equipment can be a source of much stress, when you cant afford the high quality major name brand items that cost many thousands of dollars, you either have to resort to using cheap import equipment that breaks down or never works to begin with, or having no tools at all. Starting off with a few simple tools, you can start setting up your own workshop, building equipment that you need, which saves you money you can spend on more quality equipment. In this series we'll show you how to set up a workshop, and take your hobby and turn it into a small business.

Good intentions, but I've taken six naps while you drag this out. THIS BORING!!!

@nortonfan100 Serious people with more than a 5 minute attention span tend to get annoyed by videos that cater to those who shouldn't really bother with what the video is about. Metal work can be extremely tedious and boring, if you don't have the fortitude to make it through a video, its probably not for you.

Good idea on making it all one piece, I hate it when things walk off. Like the new series man, keep it up, can't wait to see the next one!

This is moving painfully slow. Draft a script and stay focused.

Keep up the good work!

After the Moon came out @ about 9:13 in the video it got all sorts of eerie quiet you were like on fire and really worked fast! It was uncanny. Now lets see if you do the smart thing and bolt your pieces to the machine then weld it up. Personally I've moved beyond welding to bolting what I make together. It is a lot more accurate and adjustable. Plus if I decide in the future I want to make modifications weldments are such hassles to deal with. Cutting welds gets old.

Not an ease question to ask but... Also know it is ONLY a question of stringht...

Is their any benifit to uh cutting into the tubing what I mean is... If you make a square you cut the ends at a angle - line em up - weld - and its a nice square (cutting in).

So if say when you are making an H (like in time 3:08 of your video). Would it be better to, not, but them up but instead of 3 pieces have it be 5 all angled or something like that?
