Flag pole holder side job

admin

I get some weird side jobs, and some are really weird but this one I enjoyed. It's for "Old Glory" a flag pole holder and a cleat for the tie down rope. I hate being bi-polar it's awsomeMy Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

Reply:Looks excellent What did you do to make the rope cleat?  I see tapered ends with a ball - hammer that out?Looks like the base plate for the cleat was in a press brake?Btw, killer round welds - still working on mine.Dave J.Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance. ~George Bernard Shaw~ Syncro 350Invertec v250-sThermal Arc 161 and 300MM210DialarcTried being normal once, didn't take....I think it was a Tuesday.

Reply:Originally Posted by weldermikeThanks buds! Dave I ground the tapers and the balled ends came from CV joints and I did put it in a brake to curve it so it had some sort of radius to it bud.

Reply:Good job, Mike.Super nice welds on the curve.I think I would have tended to use a longer piece of pipe. What is the flag staff made of that will go in the pipe? If it's long and tube, it might tend to bend.Just asking.Burt _____________________Miller Syncrowave 250Millermatic 211Miller 375 Plasma Cutter Hobart Handler 12010FtDrillBit.com
