Fireplace!

admin

Hey everyone,I Just finished off this fireplace. I ended up making 2, and the total cost was about $80 each. They turned out really well, so I put together this quick video talking about how I made them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWNJ0YOHl2EThanks for checking it out and let me know what you think about the video!Tim

Reply:maybe it's just the camera but in your first picture it looks like the left side of the "roof" sags a little in the middle. does it?Lincoln 175HD
Reply:Thanks for the comments! I wish I could just blame the roof sag on the camera, but I think the truth is I warped the metal a bit when I was putting it together.
Reply:I really like the fireplace bud, you did a real good job, cheers on that . As far as the video, I thought it was a real snoozer  I found my self looking around your garage for the most part, and trying to peek in your tool box. P.S. lose the sweatshirt. Nice build though I hate being bi-polar it's awsomeMy Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

Reply:Hey, Tim.I like your fireplace and I enjoyed watching your video. Better than a lot I have seen on youtube. I thought you were very thorough. Would be good to post those dimensions on here as it was too quick for me to write down from the video.Burt _____________________Miller Syncrowave 250Millermatic 211Miller 375 Plasma Cutter Hobart Handler 12010FtDrillBit.com

Reply:Great work, and thanks for taking the time to make the video.  As far as people asking you to put the dimensions here, tell them to buzz off!  Too lazy to press pause to write them down themselves, or simply print them out.  Jeez!-AaronJet 17.5" Drill Press1942 South Bend 16x84 Lathe1980s Miller 320A / BP --- 2013 Power Mig 2562012 Jet 7x12 Horizontal BandsawVictor O/A Setup
Reply:Very nice!!  Perfect time of year for this project!As to judging flatness or straightness from digital camera pictures I've found that pretty much all newer consumer cameras have a lot of what's called barrel distortion because of the wide range of optical zoom and the need for a small package that doesnt cost a fortune.  You can test it by taking a picture of graph paper!
