Hey John , love your videos and your channel, and Thanks for taking time out of your busy day for sharing with us what You do , I for one appreciate that you put it all in your videos, you don’t sugarcoat anything and your as real as it gets 👍😃

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Thank you and thank you for watching. I just figure if I'm doing something, I might as well video it in case it could help someone else or just give them someone else to laugh at. Lol

[@Chevota22]

Nicely done. Thanks for the tips and tricks.

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Great video john

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Thank you and thanks for watching

[@jacobc5757]

Instead of using the “CAT Lock out” lock, switch to a different pad lock that you only have a key to and then nobody else can unlock it except you! But you probably already knew that and didn’t need anybody else to tell you. Keep on keeping the equipment going brother.🤠👍

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Yea, I just threw that in there as a joke. Lol. Thank you for watching

[@cab8188]

Always enjoy your videos John ! Can't blame you for not having enough hands. That new camera should help quite a bit.

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Thank you and thank you for watching. I can't wait to try that camera out.

[@salmonforever6088]

Keep making videos. Your doing a good job making interesting content!

[@NAWeldingandFab]

Thank you and thank you for watching. I certainly plan to keep them coming.

[@506curtis]

Ah yea ya gotta love negligent equipment operators. It will be cool to see how your new camera idea works out.

[@NAWeldingandFab]

True. Testing the new camera out today, so I'll know if it's any count tonight. Thanks for watching

[@constructionduru5195]

John you should do a video making one of your clamps! Saw it in a few other videos but couldn't get a good enough look at it to make one of my own!

[@NAWeldingandFab]

I need to make a couple more, but smaller. Problem is, I'm not around enough drop/scrap AR400 plate anymore. That clamp there is 1" AR400 with some mild 1/2"x3" flat bar and some case hardened "all thread" rod. I made it about 6 years or so ago. I modeled it after a Bessey F-clamp because they're the best and I couldn't afford to buy the 1 I wanted, so I just made it. Thing weighs about 40lbs. Lol

[@constructionduru5195]

Thanks for getting back to me. Idk about you but most of my favorite tools I made to get out of a jam. I'll definitely be tossing a few of your clamps together once I gather enough usable scrap. You keep the videos coming and I'll keep watching!

[@NAWeldingandFab]

@@constructionduru5195 you're welcome and thank you for watching. You might be able to use mild steel, but I've never tried it. I went with AR400 because it's nearly impossible to bend. Lol

[@nealk6387]

Why the weave and not stringers on n the tooth adapters?

[@NAWeldingandFab]

I can deposit a good bit more filler in a single weave pass which gets the job done faster.

[@nealk6387]

@@NAWeldingandFab gotcha, thanks for the reply. Btw what machine do you use for gouging? Thickness of carbon rods? Thanks for the video

[@NAWeldingandFab]

@@nealk6387 thank you for watching. I run 5/16" carbons and The machine is a Lincoln Ranger 330 MPX.

[@nealk6387]

@@NAWeldingandFab I just ordered the 330 and wonder if it would’ve run 1/4 carbons. Thanks again for your reply.
