Homemade Fabrication Tools and Projects

admin

Just saw this and figured I’d start a thread.  If there is already a thread for this then just merge this into that one and bump that thread.Lincoln, ESAB, Thermal Dynamics, Victor, Miller, Dewalt, Makita, Kalamzoo.  Hand tools, power tools, welding and cutting tools.
Reply:I’m always amazed how guys in these videos do all their work wearing gloves.  I don’t think I would ever get anything done if I had to wear them all day. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk:
Reply:Same here, probably why I don’t have soft and smooth girlie hands lol.Lincoln, ESAB, Thermal Dynamics, Victor, Miller, Dewalt, Makita, Kalamzoo.  Hand tools, power tools, welding and cutting tools.
Reply:Well at least this guy uses a band saw not a cutoff wheel

Reply:For the most part, these how-to videos drive me nuts.  They spend ten minutes showing how they built the thing, when all I care about is "What is it, and what does it do?"  I can figure out how to build it myself.Tim
Reply:Lots of good YouTube vids out there but I can't waste my time wading through and deleting the 90% of poor quality crap. Guys who say "umm" every third word, can't hold a camera steady and their sole claim to fame is receiving a parcel from UPS and operating a box cutter without spilling blood.

Reply:If you work in a mine site and the MSHA inspector see's you with a cool home made hammer, you'll prolly end up getting a fine... Ya know cause getting a fine makes us so much safer. LOLWe've done so much, for so long, with so little. Were now qualified to do anything with nothing !
