Metal wood gate.

admin

When I bought my house back in June, one of the big selling points was that the back yard was already fenced in for the dog. Well, mostly, the carport is in the back of the house and a gate was never put up. I couldn't make it a two price gate out of wood because the drive way is slanted away from the house, so I needed to build a one piece gate that stretched over 12ft. That would be impossible without it sagging with wood so I burned some metal for the cause. Used my 180T with some .035 flux core wire. The frame is 1/8" 2x2 tubing. A little over kill, but it's OK.Here I am cutting stuff up.The frame getting some paint. Don't have any pictures during welding it for some reason.Got half the boards put up.And this is it done.WillSent from my Nexus 5 using TapatalkLincoln Promig 180

Reply:Thanks guys. TIGguy, it will SLAM shut when I have it open and a sudden gust comes through. I keep the hinges very well greased.WillSent from my Nexus 5 using TapatalkLincoln Promig 180
