Make Your Own - Set Up Your Own Workshop Pt 1

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.

I've always worked with wood, but I have a couple of projects I would like to do in metal. I like the detail you go into with the machines. That knowledge is going to save me time and money when I go shopping. I eagerly await your next vid. Thanks, Tim

Thanks Tim, The last 3 sections of the video are in the process of uploading, unfortunately it seems my dsl is only uploading at 100 kb/s rather than the advertised 500 kb/s, so its taking about 4 hours an upload.

Good Vid ......But the first thing I would do when I set up a shop is put heat in it..lol

[BeckTechnologies]

Yea we have a furnace just to the right of the shot, but we still keep it at 55 degrees otherwise its too hot to work with long clothing on.

For welding you need to wear long clothing anyway to protect you from UV rays, so 55 is about the perfect temp to stay comfortable.
