Love your “can do” attitude. No whining, no begging for customers, no ads, and finally no swearing. Wish you all the best. Hard work does pay off.

DOT really only pulls us over if there’s stuff falling out of the door but never got pulled over for a rusty dumpster.

when we welded on a truck with any equipment on it we always disconnected the battery in case the welding current killed the alternator. welding anything rusty with a wire feed is always dicey. use 6x6 angle iron inside layed flat to support the floor to the sides

I turned the battery switch off. Do you think thats enough or should I disconnect the battery terminals?
@777poco2 жыл бұрын
lots of trucks don't have a night switch, your good. it was always a pain in the ass to get all the connections you had to take off.

You should really wear a mask when welding

dave you might find a twisted wire wheel better for removing the paint and rust for weld prep on the metal bins there but nice work saving pennies is always good

@@Dumpster_Dave They're called a 'cup brush'. You can get them with a M14 thread, that just screws straight on your grinder (- they're viscous though - keep them away from you!).

Is not worth cutting holes at the bottom of the channels in 3 spot to let it drain? Or does it not supply enough strength? I think 6” channel a 2” hole at the floor would be strong enough?

Most dumpsters have little holes at the bottom of the channels to let the water out

if you were to come in from up the hill, rather than from down the hill probably would work better.

watched about 10 of your videos I like your style. your editing has gotten really good. can you say the profit you make when fixing up trucks or will the tax man get you? only bad I can say is always use a mask even when tacking up! I have arc eye from 3 years of welding and its photophobia every day.

What do you recommend for severe rotted gaps between plates on the bevel floor of a dumpster. Where the plate has nothing but rust to fuse to
@Dumpster_Dave Жыл бұрын
To be honest probably have to cut all the rusted metal out and replace with new metal.

@christ9460 Жыл бұрын
I almost never have a negative comment but this is so bad that you can use or rent out something in such bad condition.. there is far from enough welding.. you should have been fined or lost your business license for a period sometimes it is better to say no to a job.. and think about the safety of you, the customers, others on the road and the garbage facility, there is not much that holds this together
