Someone's shed is messy!! Lol. Good looking bar. When should it be finished?

 

[Deadly]

Not messy.......just confined only a 6 x 4 shed, but looking at building a bigger one soon.
Hopefully be ready for paint in a couple of weekends.

 

[4x4 ST-R]

6 x 4 isn't too bad. I've just recently moved into a new house, first one ever with a shed out the back. It's 6 x 6. I love it! It's currently a spray booth, doing a bookcase regeneration project for the missus.

I reckon il have the Nav in here soon giving it a new colour. Currently pondering new colour combinations. Might go to the drag races on Saturday and get some ideas.

The bar is looking real sweet joshman. Looking forward to seeing the finished product mounted on clarky! - I'm going to take some of these pics to my fab-man tomorrow for some ideas - hope you don't mind mate.

Cheers

The bar is looking pretty awesome mate

Got the jerry can/multipurpose carrier mostly sorted..........was a hell of a fight this one.............this one is attempt #4

 

[Gonzo]

Fark you will have to change your trucks name from clarky to inspector gadget or one of them transformers. And you will need a permit to drive it on the road , It's going to weigh about 5 tonne Gunna look good but !!

 

[Deadly]

It's not as heavy as you would think

 

[4x4 ST-R]

What welder are you using? I'm over my arc welder and want to get a mig. Just wondering if you've got a gas or gas less? How many watt? Cheers

 

[ben85]

i just got a unimig 180 amp mig (i only use gas but can do gasless), pretty happy with it.
got a cheap inverter arc welder as well and that does a great job too.

 

[Deadly]

It's a CIG Transmig Brumby 180 (don't think they make these anymore, had this one for nearly 20 yrs), with gas.

 

[4x4 ST-R]

That's a lot of gas! Looks like the one I use at work when I need to do bigger jobs. I've never looked at how powerful it is though, but it gets some good penetration on 10mm plate.

Looks like il be getting gas too, never heard of people using the gas less option. Just another thing to add to the wish list. Maybe guilt trip the Missus into buying it, she still owes me a Christmas present.

 

[4x4 ST-R]

Is that on 3 phase power or standard 240 volt?

 

[glenstr]

I got a little bocgas welder running boc gasless wire works really well up to 5 mm. My old as dust arc welder can blow holes in 20mm plate (she is a beast)

 

[4x4 ST-R]

I think I would want something that could do about 8 - 10 mm. I wouldn't need anymore, I'm not adding armour to the Nav. Haha. Or should I??

 

[Deadly]

Is that on 3 phase power or standard 240 volt?

Standard 240V with a 10amp plug
Yeh, it's the big bottle of gas, G size I think they are!!

 

[4x4 ST-R]

Oh nice. I was a bit worried that the bigger units might need 3 phase power or like a 15amp plug.

 

[Munnerz]

Nice build, looking forward to the finished product.

 

[Deadly]

Well, had a good run this morning. Basically all I need to do now is to make the bracket for the lights.
