Great stuff. In my day there was no internet, you would need to get on an apprenticeship and that was hard. You've created great opportunities for people by producing these master lessons. Respect!
Bandsaw saves time. Anything requiring heat treat should not be flame or plasma cut. Grinding could remove HAZ from flame cut but not assured.

Great tip!
I ordered A36 flat for a test and received hardened flat bar. Failed the test twice before I looked at the certs for the Flat bar. Make sure you know what your working with. Bend test shows everything!
I passed a seismic test for California. Just take your time. Don’t grind in the direction the Bend.

Hey guys, I love your videos and find them very educational. I was wondering if you could do a video covering the Plasma Arc Welding process in detail? Thanks

Having you cap cocked sideways and made of whatever flamboyant colors you want is whatever man, express yourself, but not having your shirt tucked in makes you look sloppy. Also put a handle on that damn grinder, don't hold it by the guard like that. Jesus.
Do it again. Ol'son
