Hy,you can do magic👍👍👍all the best to you and warm greetings from Germany

[@austincrider20]

Man I do stuff like this at work every day… great content nice to see someone talkie their time to do it all correctly… hellova fabricator👍🇺🇸

[@5thStreetFab]

Right on dude! And thanks!

[@drpipe]

Thanks for showing all the prep before lighting up.. nice little project that 🙏

[@Helikopterpop]

youre a legend at welding. Love your channel

[@joell439]

Perfect KZbin project with lots of details. Thanks 👍👍😎👍👍

[@jaredmcquiniff5362]

You have sure come a long way since I started watching your channel! Back when you got the ahp alpha tig learning how to weld aluminum with it to quickly after being one of the best aluminum welders on KZbin to now, fabricating whatever you feel like making! Good stuff bro keep it up!

[@Blakelikesfood]

I don't understand, ~3 years tigging and I don't comprehend how your tourch ~flame is perfect. DC tig on stainless & steels is like your video, but AC aluminum is flipping crack head crazy all over the place, completely unpredictable, and like.....hard core static-ey. The torch flame is broken, uneven, and dances .

[@bnewton239]

beautiful, belongs in a museum.

[@FrustratedBaboon]

It appears that when you move forward and start to dab you press on the pedal to increase current then lift off and move forward again and repeat? That's what you told me to do last time, it's been a while since welded. I'm going to make a coffee table like that one you made. Also why use the HTP 400 vs the HTP220. I only have the HTP220.

[@sofianorca5210]

Good job 👍

[@oficinadofurtado]

Good job

[@hipairbrush1053]

Excellent work....

[@williambickford5524]

Great videos how about a shop equipment tour

[@shibbling]

Hey max! Amazing job, What camera / lense set up are you useing for that welding shot at 15:17?

[@5thStreetFab]

I use an adjustable nd filter i think its 0 to 400 and f stop to 32 and iso 100. A 500 nd filter would probably be better

[@robmotown1]

I know ive probably worn out my welcome but…when welding a brand new cast aluminum manifold….are there any secrets!!! Im getting alot of black soot!! I cleaned with acetone… !!!

[@drpipe]

Love to see a video on the prep side ?... how you make it look uniform and techniques for either polished satin brushed 💪 thanks for sharing buddy 🙏🙏

[@aaronyoung8028]

Hey Max, awesome build as always! Also love your Box n Pan brake 😍 Cheers Aaron 🍻

[@CrayFishHandMade]

killer Soundtrack ! Looking like your coming right there in our new shop :)

[@DCweldingAndArt]

Turned out bada*s my friend! Well done, hella craftsmanship. Be blessed bud!

[@5thStreetFab]

Thanks bud!👊🍻

[@motoxjim929]

Awesome stand now let's see it under the bike!!!

[@yamasaki.design]

What bandsaw blade can you recommend for aluminium? Width , thickness, tpi and material? Nice work 👍 thanks for the videos..

[@Noahlochner0]

Phenomenal work as usual Max. 👊👊👊🙌

[@oficinadofurtado]

Very good 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷

[@MikeP350]

That's a nice looking fab table, did you build that? Bike stand came out great too. Great looking welds

[@robmotown1]

What brand bender and how much did it cost......if you don't mind me asking.....looks sweet! Very nice work!!!! True craftsman!!

[@5thStreetFab]

Its the grizzly deluxe pan and box brake t10718 i got it on sale for $2150 plus freight but i think i had an extra 5% off. Around november they usually have sales and coupons

[@Castor364]

Enjoyed the vid but would like to have seen a dirt bike on it, Not sure how it is used?.

[@5thStreetFab]

Haha sorry i put a dirt bike on it but didnt film it

[@Kashed]

Hey Max, did you notice any cracking issues when bending such thick aluminum or does 5052 tolerate it pretty well? Also, what filler did you use? Great vid, keep em coming and have a great weekend! - Kurt

[@5thStreetFab]

Thanks bud! Nope no cracking issues. 5052 is pretty ductile so bending isnt much of a problem. I've had the occasional piece of 1/4" or 3/8" crack when bent but usually it seems like its just a bad batch of metal. I used 5356 filler!

[@murphy6767]

Was that 1/8" 5356??? Awesome build..

[@5thStreetFab]

Nope i used 3/32" 5356 i normally only use 1/8" for thick parts like 3/16" and bigger

[@robertgreen4050]

Love your work 👍

[@5thStreetFab]

Thanks bud!

[@curtisvonepp4335]

Can youGET OUT OFYOUR ECKO CHAMBER ?

[@drakeherman16]

Who taught you to layout sheet so well? Im new to the sheetmetal and tig game and really want to educate myself if theirs anything online you’d recommend thanks. Awesome work as always!

[@5thStreetFab]

Thanks dude! I just learned from other guys at work and trial and error. Im not sure whats out there online though

[@cristianbiasioli6937]

Just awesome. You are legend

[@sethstacy5155]

Awesome video Max! Love this type of content. What is the guage capacity on the grizzly box and pan? I've been wanting one for a while but most manual machines I've seen are rated for like 16 guage at full capacity. Press brakes seem a little too pricy for a hobbyist guy. Also can't wait to see how the cnc router works out bc Ive wanted to go that way for a while as well. Be interesting to see how well it works with a more budget machine.

[@5thStreetFab]

16 gauge! Haha it works just fine with 1/8" aluminum. Ive done some .160 also

[@n8o8n]

Awesome! Do you use a fixed shade helmet? If so what shade do you use?

[@5thStreetFab]

Thanks! Ya i use a gold shade 10 with a magenta filter. It kind of darkens it to about a shade 12. Shade 12 is what i normally use

[@n8o8n]

Thanks, appreciate your reply.

[@5thStreetFab]

@@n8o8n no problem bud!

[@smokerise]

Nice work kid, keep practicing you'll get there! 🤣👍 When the hood drops, the bullshit stops!

[@5thStreetFab]

😉🍻

[@smokerise]

@@5thStreetFab cheers amigo! 🍻

[@zoozolplexOne]

Cool !!!

[@zoozolplexOne]

how do you calculate angles for the stand?

[@lightmetalinc.6488]

Nice work mate. The quality of your tools and machinery are what dreams are made of. I figured out your secret though... 69% ac balance! (my welds are going to be super legit now).

[@5thStreetFab]

Haha thanks dude! Definetly cool guy percentage!

[@cmwright1986]

👌🏼

[@chachward9752]

We met your father yesterday at the black smugglers winery. He was a very nice guy 😎🤙 Check us out Wards on wheels

[@robmotown1]

After so many hours of welding......do you find it 'EASY' to weld like you do......or do you still have challenges that piss you off?????

[@5thStreetFab]

Things like this are easy now but man i do a shit ton of out of position welds on dirty boats with a roller switch instead of a pedal haha which does piss me off!! But it makes me better each time so i like it at the same time

[@robmotown1]
