Oof

Adding a bevel to the tubing you are welding together will make the weld stronger .. It will add more surface area for the weld and allow the weld to penetrate deeper into the steel .. Also , when working with steel , any place you plan to weld you need to use a flap wheel or a sander and get the area clean .... There is mil scale on the steel from the forming process , you want to remove that so you do not have contamination in the weld .... You just need to knock the mill-scale off (so the area you are going to weld is shiney and not that dull grey / black look ).... With what you were welding , you want about 1/4 to 1/3 of the tubing clean (roughly 1/4 to 1/2" of shiny material outside of the finished weld joint ) ........... Looks good though .... Also , try practicing your welds by welding in lowercase cursive e motions ...... The weld would go line this (with all the lowercase e's attached ) .......... eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee , this will give you that professional stack of dimes look ...Just be sure to overlap 1/2 of each e .. (hope you could understand what I was saying )

Agreed with 99% of what you’re saying, personally I would recommend to use a straight drag across the joint with self shielded flux core. Watch the edge of the puddles and move according to how far the puddle wets out. Best welding tip I have gotten in my career so far, was learn to read the puddle. Once you understand what you’re looking for, it’s a joke.

Thank you "ChrisFix" for some pretty inventive and ingenious videos - I (and many others) truly appreciate all the time and effort you took editing, producing and documenting your "fixes". Thank you for sharing it with the DIY and YT communities, Ciao, L

Don't forget too disconnect your battery before welding on any vehicle. Looks great chris!

Just wanted to say that your videos are extremely high quality and I enjoy watching you test and try new things.

Almost three years following you, and this still being my favorite video, cause I'm a welder and I have also a Windstar. Your videos are really helpful for me. Thanks Chris! 🇲🇽

Chris, When welding something like this that I want to keep out the water, I leave a 1/4" hole somewhere on the structure. After I think I'm done, I run the air compressor and put the blow-gun tip at the hole and pressurize the structure. (Have a friend do this for you.) Then I walk around and listen at all the welds for air leaks. Hear some hissing? Fire up the welder and close those cracks. Without a technique like this you're sure to get water in there somewhere... Fabulous end result. Who doesn't like *lots* of light?

His voice matches his face. Kovu approves.

Great project. Nice video. Just a suggestion... whenever welding on your vehicle, it's important to disconnect the battery ground. I've fried electronics on the vehicle when I've forgotten to do this. Sometimes you can get away without doing this... sometimes not. I am now in the habit of not risking my ECU....and shelling out a whole lot of pocket change.

Thank you so much for making this video I been trying to see how to install a light bar and seen videos and they don’t explain it enough but you explain stuff way easier thank you.

5 years later and he still looking comments, comes to show how much he appreciates us

I wonder if his subscribers realize every one of his projects take much longer than it would take if he didn't need to worry about camera angles, camera batteries, microphone background noise such as wind, and I'm not even talking about the COUNTLESS hours required to edit and splice everything together not to mention all of the details such as providing us with a clean cut and informative video description which includes all of the tools he's used. PLUS I'm sure I forgot to mention several other factors that cause each of his projects to take numerous times longer than they will for his viewers to do the same thing. CHRIS ought to do a video of behind-the-scenes to demonstrate all that is involved in producing one project video (without showing his face of course!). THANKS CHRIS.. I appreciate and have a good idea as to all that is involved. Great job bud.

YES, I think LED's are great. But one does not have to pay the ridiculous price of a thousand bucks!! LED's are not nominally more expensive than the Old technology. A 3 watt LED element cost less than $0.80 when purchased by one thousand or more. SO a 300 watt LED light bar has only about $80.00 in the cost of the LED's. The rest is just for the extruded housing, a couple of end caps and the Plastic reflector nodes. The Public needs to open their eyes!! When microwave ovens and VCR's first came out they were up to $800 each! As the consumer became more educated, Now they are $59.99 because competition drove the price down! Don't Be A Stupid Buyer.

Great build. 1 - they make plastic end caps for the square tubing (Grainger should have them). 2 - are you going to weld nuts to the underside of the pocket posts so the rack can be bolted down. 3 - a sheet of expanded metal welded to the underside of the top part would be cool. 4 - your preference but I think that rack would look really good painted gloss black instead of Herculiner.

Great videos Chris, on you light bar you made for your truck you didn't drill and prep any " weep" holes for moisture to escape. Without "weep " holes moisture can cause rust to form on interior of metal ,eventually weakening the assembly and cause it to fail.😃

FIRST BUILD???? Good job. Proper planing before you even start is the key. I have built my fair share to say that you might want to consider a couple drain holes in the bottom side and use a can of undercoating with the red spray nozzle they come with to get up in there and shoot inside the rails. It's amazing how bad things will rust from the inside out even when welding caps on the end. Look at jeep frames. They don't have any drainage holes on the bottom and there frames are notorious for rusting out. One other thing that will help out ALOT for guys doing projects is a digital angle finder from HF. Mine sits on my welding cart all the time. There not that expensive and beats trying to hold on an angle and draw a line. But, AWESOME VIDEO!!! And from the driveway in the winter!!!! Great job Chris!!

i have so much respect for guys that make their own work. i just notice that is a thing on Americans, i don't know if is because the economic status, or because a hobby. what i don't know is how people get educated so young, and by working by therselfs. is a father son teaching? or what?, americans get very enthusiastic on technical and mechanical work. here in Mexico. first. we don't have the tools. or invest on them. we prefer that some humble worker do it of us for a cheap price. but, most of the times, we get a pretty shitty work. not so clean work.

Hey Chris, I know this is a pretty old vid and I don't know what in your welding practices has changed, but if you haven't already, invest in a chipping hammer. It helps everything look a lot nice and smoother. You just wack all the little welding spray before and/or after your brush. Most of it comes off real easily as I'm sure you've experienced by now. Love the vids, keep em up. I would also love to see a vid on chipping paint and the best way to fix that.

Damn this is awesome... i've said it before on another vid of yours but you really are the Macgyver of automotive stuff. I bet you can build a house with a grinder, welder, jack stands, soapy wooder and blinker fluid.

I have not watched part 2 yet, but two suggestions to really make this nice looking rack a lot stronger and more shop built looking... #1 take a grinder and polish all those welds smooth and rounded over with no rough surfaces. #2 cut some triangles from scrap 1/8" plate stock and use that to brace the joints underneath the two sides of the top horizontal and the two runners going out over the roof. Those triangles will add great strength to those joints.

Anyone welding on a vehicle should disconnect the vehicle battery first

+ExRE_Sapper well he wasent welding on the car, he was welding on somthing laying on a painted surface :) so you cant compare it to welding an exhaust, and disconnecting the battery is useless, you need a special tool that protects the electric circuit you connect to the battery while its still conectet :)

Loving the measurements. Use this vernier gauge to check if it sits level then a block of wood to make sure it's away from the cab equily.

This guy does it all, nice job, man!
