Fabricating Workshop Press & Removing Rust With Angle Grinder Wire Wheel - Preparing For Paint

[@opendstudio7141]

Donn, the great recycler of scrap metal. Rust removal is such a pain, but the reward is worth it.

[@DonnDIY]

Absolutely, I already enjoy the painted press. Can't use it anymore though - I'm afraid to scratch it. :D

[@willemstreutgers1154]

Donn, excellent equiptment and a nice color, we love it in Holland. Little advice, consider making a small chain on top and fitted to the wall to avoid falling over when used with uneven heavy parts in the press.

[@DonnDIY]

That's a great idea. ;)

Springtime is the best.

You make things look easy. Now I might try to build one

[@martyschalk489]

Hi donn nice press I added two pieces of all thread too raise and lower the press bed I also used a old jack screw adjuster as a press push pin so you can adjust push point easier . Love your channel Marty

[@DonnDIY]

Hey Marty. Cool. Thanks for the info and thanks for watching!

[@RaysLaughsAndLyrics]

Awesome build... excellent prep and paint. Suggestion...a knob for the bleed down ... using the jack handle oval end to release pressure gets awkward. Drill a hole in a golf ball so a piece of pipe/tubing fits tight. Take the tubing and oval one end to fit snugly over the bleed stub... cut tube/pipe to length.. 1.5" ... tap the pipe/tube onto the bleed stub with a hammer. Lastly, take drilled golf ball and use a rubber mallet to tap onto tube/pipe hammered onto bleed stub. Golf ball should have a good friction fit if hole was drilled for a snug fit. Hope this helps.

[@frankdeegan8974]

Imagine my surprise to see wheels incorporated into your design, very good forethought.

[@DonnDIY]

It was a no brainer - once I built it I had to move it around - thus the removable wheels concept.

hahhaa "oh shit! I forgot to clean it!" That made my day. Another great video. keep it up

Good video Donn, you did a great job building the press and with the clean up and paint job it is up to your standards. Looks good in the new room you divide off and built . Thanks for sharing with us.

[@DonnDIY]

Yup, I have no standards though. :D Thanks for watching. :)

[@pennykrueger5644]

Great build sir. Thanks for sharing with us.

Next the saw mill please!

[@DonnDIY]

Yes, painting the sawmill will also come. ;)

[@mimiporsche]

Simple and inexpensive👍👍👍

[@DonnDIY]

Absolutely!

[@tomharrell1954]

Hi HMT you should make a sand blaster. They are 5 times faster than wire brushes. Easier to use.

[@AJwesleyify]

You do nice work. I like watching you

[@homemadetools]

Good work!

[@1armedguy4]

Nice job on the press, and thought of a great project for you since you do a lot of metal work . I think you should build a homemade sand/ media blaster it would cut all that wire wheeling and time in half or more. Thanks !

[@DonnDIY]

Yup.

[@samueldeter9735]

What type of square tubing did you use?

[@huopavaan]

Nice video, i like it !! Orange is altimes good color to tools !!!

[@puncherdavis9727]

Very nice great job keep it up

[@DonnDIY]

Thanks!

[@metricstormtrooper]

Just like a bought one, only better, cheaper, taller and more orange.

[@DonnDIY]

Absolutely - I made it especially tall so I can work with a straight back. Tailor fit press for me. :D

Search for a channel named "Eddie the grouch". He has some useful ideas on how to make a bottle jack better for press use. He's quite fun to watch also but not very active lately.

Мне понравилось.

[@ebahunt]

Väga äge. Hea vaadata, kuidas töökoda ilmet võtab ning kuidas puhtad kapid, tööriistad jm endale koha leiavad. Esteetika pole tööriistade puhul esmatähtis aga minumeelest on endal puhtam ja kuivem tunne töötades küll sedasi :D

[@DonnDIY]

Mulle ka meeldib. Olen alati puhast töökoda tahtnud, kus asjad kindla koha peal. Nüüd on see võimalus selline töökoda tekitada ning kasutan seda aega ära. Varsti saangi lasta põranda ära valada. Kõik muu sellele lisaks peaks olema lihtsalt aja küsimus. Tänud vaatamast!

[@lisi2012ful]

[@michaelmcneal654]

Looks great! Did you video when you wired the workshop? From what I can see you did a very neat job!

[@DonnDIY]

So and so. My father did the electrical work in the shop. All the fuse boxes, wiring, switches etc. He didn't want to be in the video so... Not so much video material from this operation.

[@MRSketch09]

I'm guessing that GoPro must have rebelled, & was getting its due? lol Anyways, I'm speaking from the butt here, but if your going to deal with rusty stuff as much as you have, why not build yourself a sand blasting booth or something? so you can knock down rust quicker?

[@DonnDIY]

I have a bigger compressor (more volume of air per minute) stashed away that needs an electric motor fitment so I can use sand blaster which I have to build. But that's another project. :D

[@boelwerkr]

Did you spray the insides with cavity sealant? Rust from the inside can be as bad as from the outside. And the European style electrics in the background. Not the American conduit rubbish. ;-)

[@DonnDIY]

Nope, I do however have the cavity sealant at hand so I just might. :D

[@totalletgo3762]

Gday looks more like burnt orange here then red cheers

[@DonnDIY]

Camera is deceiving. I have some kind of color "POP" regime on which over saturates the colors a bit. But yeah, it is close to orange, but it's still red. :D Very bright red.
