Another great video, Waldo. I have a few suggestions for you. 1). try to run all your wiring inside of the tubes with that plastic spiral sheathing. 2) Add a couple spot lights to the headache rack. Hooking up trailers and strapping things down and checking straps at night can be a rough deal without great lighting. 3) Everywhere you run wire/wire looms through the aluminum use a grommet with silicone calk in the grommet channel. This will help keep the grommet in place and keep the hole you drilled for it from corrosion. 4) Once you know exactly where the fuel tank/tool box is going, add gussets to the headache rack. They will save you in the long run... 5) Wire in a few lights and switches for wheel well lighting. I used to haul cars cross country. I've had a few flats and other issues in some pretty dark places where well lights would have saved my ass in a big way.. 6) Emergency flashers are one thing, but strobe lights are a far cry better.. People know what is what for miles before a hazzard flasher.. Day or night!!!

I made a new flat bed for my '65F100. I used 6061 alum. Used 4"x2" channels on top of the steel truck frame. Used 2"x2" alum angles bolted to truck frame (three per side) that bolted to the 4"x2" channel. Next... 3"x2" channels bolted to the 4"x2" crossmembers. I then had a 1/4" alum. plate (28"x 72" ) that went behind the cab (on top of the cross members). Then had 3 pieces of 5/8"x 9" A-36 plates cut for the sides & back. In the opening that was caused by the 1/4" alum in the front, the two sides & the back...I had a piece of 1/4" A-36 plate cut to fill in the opening. About 52" sq. as I remember. I wanted to lighten the fab table up. So, using 1/4" plate was the ticket. Welded the three sides to the 1/4" plate. Doing so there was minimum warping. Can bend 1/4"x3" flat bar into a 90. I clamp the piece down very well. Wear ear protection, to form the part. Nearly forgot...made a rack so cutting bottles could be brought along when needed. I am pleased with how it turned out. It serves me well.

Thanks for the great content. I used to build these via steel, and yes, they will rust, but customers were not willing to opt for expensive aluminum. ( some even opted for no paint on the units to save a few bucks ). Good to see you insulated the hold-down bolts to prevent electrolysis corrosion to the aluminum frame. I will also say, as good as your welds appear, if the structure is heavily stressed in some areas, the welds will likely crack. Seen it a hundred times. It's one reason I opt for steel. Your design is excellent and the truck looks well proportioned.

Great video, touched on a lot of what makes aluminum welding different than welding carbon steel. The trickiest thing I have found with welding Aluminum is how well it conducts heat: you can start a weld with one power setting and end it with a fraction of what you started because of just how much heat transfer takes place between the just-cooled filler and the rest of the workpiece. Also, good thinking using the nylon washers between the steel truck frame and the aluminum flatbed 👍

LED strips are simple and effective for these and can be added to the loom on your 'wider' lighting or on micro switches on the lids, but more work, or glue in some velcro for battery lights or pieces of steel (yes, I know) for magnetic lights.

Looks sharp. Nice job. You have great fabrication skills. A little advice: Although aluminum is strong, it is very prone to cracking (especially when it is in a high-vibration service life, such as a vehicle). Aluminum does rust, it’s in the form of aluminum oxide. This oxide layer gives aluminum anti-corrosion properties. You should remove the oxide before welding as it will contaminate the weld with hydrogen (which can cause cracking, especially on 6061). This oxide layer also melts at 3-times the temperature as the aluminum itself, so it makes welding easier to remove the oxide prior to welding. Wire brush the weld joints with a stainless wire brush to remove the oxide and clean all oil and chemicals off with acetone or isopropyl alcohol prior to welding. Do not use a grinder or saw that has been used on plain carbon steel. Cross contamination can cause weld defects and/or cracking. Fill your craters at the end of each weld. Craters can crack. Aluminum does corrode when it comes in contact with certain elements. It can react with plain carbon steel (the reaction is called electrolysis). The nylon washer between the chassis and aluminum frame is a good move, but it would be wise to swap out your grade 5 or 8 steel washers and fasteners with stainless steel washers and fasteners. Welding 6061 aluminum with 5XXX-series filler wire is generally stronger, although most welders prefer the ease and look of 4XXX-series wire. 6061 can be annealed prior to welding and heat treated after welding for some increased strength characteristics. Hope this helps you and anyone else welding aluminum in the future. Again, very nice work. That’s a better fabrication job than a lot of the “professional” fabricators I’ve worked with. Can’t wait for the next video.

As a project while learning to TIG a few years ago. I made something like your Headache rack out of 90mm Aluminium round tube for a mates 70 series Landcruiser Ute. He lives on a large, remote station (farm) in Aus. We put two fillers on the top and taps on either side under the tray. One side filled with water, mainly for the dogs and handwashing, the other side for spare diesel. held 20+ litres each side and the weight was right up front. Worked a treat. (Not sure about how roadworthy it would be. And I guess we don't have the whole freezing thing to worry about.) I have to get one of those Pulse MIGs! Great video Waldo thanks. 👍

That remote is specifically for Aluminum. The idea is getting started is always the hard part on aluminum and takes the most heat. Even when TIG welding Aluminum you start out with your foot pedal maxed and back out of it once you establish your puddle. So you set the machine high for the start and run that adjustment maxed at your starts then lower once you make your puddle and run your weld. Preheating your starts is always very helpful in achieving the same exact thing without that adjustment. Its the same idea as the foot pedal on TIG machines. That machine is really nice for a MIG based Aluminum Machine. I've not got to use one myself but, ive heard really good things about them. I still think i would be more comfortable with a Foot Pedal on that machine if thats possible instead of the switch since I'm already so used to TIG welding. My only question is that a push-pull gun on that machine? Thats what is normally on Aluminum MIG machines but, all the ones ive ever run (Miller) are MUCH bigger than that gun so it doesn't look like a push-pull gun but, if it is thats the smallest form factor ive ever seen on one and makes that an even more badass machine. If its not a push-pull gun then the lead must be really nice and stiff or something because thats the problem with running aluminum wire on normal MIG machines (Which you can absolutely do otherwise) is the wire will bind up in the liner far too easily especially if you dont keep the lead line perfectly straight as possible at all times. Thats why you run Spool Guns instead on those machines.
