5:58 do you know what is flowpiercing ? ( I think it's called like this in english, it's "fluoperçage" in french ) Maybe buy this tool if you have the right machine.

[@bradley3549]

I used to go through the trouble of drilling holes to bolt on casters like that. At some point I realized A. I'm probably not going to change them ever in my lifetime and B. If I ever had to, taking a grinder to it is hardly a big deal. So now I just weld them.

[@DonnDIY]

I thought about welding them but it felt robust. So I took a bit of time and drilled the holes. No biggie. 😀 But I like welding things together too. 😉

[@i.bcraftsman5977]

Like me and my brother hahahaha he like to weld things together too

[@metricstormtrooper]

Metal fatigue at the welds, and banging them up against obstacles will mean replacement Will have to happen.

[@TheMetalButcher]

Yeah, I'd weld them too except most casters are cadmium coated which is much worse than zinc for your health. Also with a milling machine and DRO like Donn has, all you need to do is center punch one, then drill the other 3 based on the standardized distances.

[@RubenKelevra]

Spot-welding with AC is also great compared to Mig/Tig since your cost is much lower while you can work faster :)

[@PeterWMeek]

I certainly agree on wheels in a one-man shop (or even two or three-man if there are many more machines than operators). Room to work around a machine is wasted space when it isn't being used. Over the past few weeks, I've binge-watched all your videos. Easy to see why you've built up to a half million subscribers.

Thanks for watching the videos. You can spread the word about this channel if you found it useful. More videos to come! 😉

Yet another clever piece of engineering. Very well done, Donn! Nice cold saw, also. It should be a great upgrade to the shop to have it be more freely usable like that.

[@prestonking5736]

It's always fun watching you work that's for sure you are talented

[@morgansword]

Although my comments are seldom short Donn, I will say that most are watching and forgetting that this was designed for the diy person. Factories have robots and other slaves that do the dirty work and show up seven days a week, any shift including overtime... I think they factored in how long any machine can go unmonitored. Your skills just keep on coming and truly feel like the love of metal and the love of wood are equal in terms of pulling at your heart strings when invention is the mother and need is the father. I would sure have loved to be your neighbor. If I had heard grinding noises at midnight, I would of grabbed my stocking cap and slippers and joined you... with some tidbits from the fridge to make a roast beef or chicken salad sandwich so that you wouldn't make me go home. Takes some strong methods of bribery when your need to watch is involved. I am of certain that when I meet st. Peter as I am seventy three, I will ask him to give you eternal health and life for inventions are about you and you have only begun. I have watched every youtube video of yours and wish I could rewatch to give second like. Tremendous things shall come in time from your mind

I'm jealous of you .. It's a tool I miss so much in my workshop ..

[@DonnDIY]

No need to be. You'll get the saw if you really want it. I did really want it and saved up some funds so I finally bought it.

@@DonnDIY I have so much great projects im my head, so when i have some spare money, i invest them to buy parts 🤣. If really, i can't say what i have not tools in my garage. Simply, saw are the last in my list. But i already hate angle grinder due it's dust everywhere.. 🤣

[@WilliamHollinger2019]

@ it is small shavings of steel if you put it over a bucket you could save them and melt them down to make more steel ingot.

Все в Ваших силах, просто надо идти к своей цели, ну правда надо иногда и "жабу" придушить слегка чтоб легче был тот путь......

[@BrianDaleNeeley]

I think you're right; that saw SHOULD have been on casters already. However, that saw looks like it should be in a commercial or industrial shop, where equipment isn't moved around as much (generally). And I'm curious as to whether the base is backwards in relation to the saw. Because putting the access plate on the back of what was meant to be a stationary base is just dumb. On a mobile base (as you have made it), the location for accessing the coolant tank isn't so important, but it would be a *PAIN* in a shop where it was set against a wall. It's a great modification to that base, and a great video.

[@DonnDIY]

The motor of the saw hangs over the back of thr base quite a bit do when against the wall there's still room to get to the access panel. But now when the saw is mobile there's even more room. 😁

Why do people prefer this kind of saw over a band saw, that might be a bit more expensive but cuts much faster, similar cut quality and can cut bigger steel (most of the times) ? Just interested in opinions

[@tedhargiss1056]

Very nice. I need that for the band saw I haven't set up yet.

[@DonnDIY]

Now using this setup I don't even use the jack screws in the front. The saw has enough mass to stay put without locking it. I'm really happy with the result because I need to move the saw around quite often.

[@michaelovitch]

Can't you cancel a bit of noise by reducing the stand panels vibrations ? Sounds like a growly saw, but the cuts are very nice.

[@DonnDIY]

It seems the noise comes from the gearbox in the geared saw head. If I were to put the saw on rubber pads this might reduce the noise allthough it is already on rubbery wheels, so I don'y really know. It is much less noisy than Evolution saw though.😀
