Ratha Sochenda

Hello, I'm Ratha Sochenda. By trade I'm a Mechanical Engineer, but here on the channel I'll be sharing my DIY projects.

Because I like to design and make things, I start out my ideas in 3D CAD first to work out the details and then most of time will build it out of metal since I like fabrication.

I love to go fishing, camp off the grid, eat Southeast Asian foods, and spend time with my wife and kids.

    Box your C iron on both sides, that should eliminate the deflection your getting. PS I'm very impressed with the things you are doing, engineering and fabricating. Keep it up, everything should pay off for you if it hasn't already.

    I wonder maybe create a pad for the jacks to stand on and remove the wheels as security measure? If I wasn't in an HOA, I would get a trailer too, but I can always borrow one in exchange for a case of beer with buddies.

    I’m in the process of moving my bender onto an engine stand and am I glad I watched this video! I was about to cut off the rotating part and just have a plate welded on to bend horizontal, but your idea makes so much more sense to have both options. Great job !

    Had an idea, but I don't know if it would ever come in to play. Since the fingers are different widths, would maybe making the back guide slide side to side be a worthwhile upgrade? Can't think of a specific instance, but I haven't needed a finger brake yet.

  • @RathaSochenda
    @RathaSochendaАй бұрын

    Yeah I thought about that have it slide on linear guide rails. Left to right.

  • @jayinmi3706
    @jayinmi3706Ай бұрын

    That's a great idea! I've been leaning toward a Roguefab bender because it can do the vertical orientation, but it's out of my price range at the moment for something I won't use alot. Combining this with the Woodward Fab clone from Amazon might get it in my range.

  • @oby-1607
    @oby-1607Ай бұрын

    One can't install enough locks on a trailer or what is on the trailer. No lock is infallible, so it is better to layer with multiple locks. At least that will slow them down or maybe deter the thief from taking what is yours. It is definitely getting worse out there for people who have no morals.

    Thanks for the upgrades. I have an 8 foot trailer with a single tongue (like your boat trailer) rather than many V types. I have attached a hand crank cable winch to the tongue exactly like your boat trailer. This not only helps with loading, but after loading I use it to hold the tarp down.

  • @brennik05
    @brennik056 күн бұрын

    I have a 10’ that is also a single tongue. Looking into the best place to attach a winch( help loading a mower etc. that won’t start). Did you weld it on or can it be bolted down. I can’t weld so I’m hoping to be able to bolt something down. Also did you attach yours to the tongue itself or to the trailer frame?

    Are the spacers necessary if the 2x4 vertical sits flush with the rail? I have a 5x8 Karavan same type but I don’t have that little gap with the rail.

    @@RathaSochenda I was considering using pressure treated plywood with U Bolts or the 6x10 board like you did. I think less wood would be better for weight. I'm not sure if I still need the 2x4 verticals, but they might help keep it sturdy. Otherwise, the top section will only be held by the U bolt at the bottom.
