    Really, Just use a bigger hammer/Beater! Doesn’t matter how many plates he welds on that grapple or what method of welding-hard wire-flux-stick, the operator of that machine can destroy an anvil with a toothpick! He definitely has job security welding on those machines

    Those gates have been a challenge and an epic build. I have a customer that wants something similar. A twelve foot wide opening, on the crest of a small hill, the design has to reflect the new underground house and surrounding countryside and it has to be automated to slide out of the way. To be honest, I don't want the hassle of the design, the hassle of the build, the hassle of the infrastructure, galvanizing and painting and fitting. Having done some work the customer already, I know he will want to cut corners, save a sprinkle of money and take the pride out of the job with demoralising changes to the spec. Needless to say, I know him well and walked off his underground house build because he kept insisting on changes to welding work. Top work young man and much respect! P.S. Love those dogs!

      When I started the business it was a very different strategy than today but I would say the best way to start is by knocking on lots of doors and find out what other local businesses are looking for welding and fab work. Don't be afraid to ask even if you don't think they need that type of service you would be surprised I've worked on and in just about everything you can think of over the years. Thanks for watching.

    Interesting stuff because l have to design and submit a quote for a sliding gate for an entrance to an underground house.

      @@LivingstonWeldFab I grew up on 21 acres near Stone Mountain Georgia. We did a little light farming but the red clay was a curse. My Dad grew up near Ball Ground, Ga and during the depression they had to stop planting cotton (can you image raising cotton in clay?) because the price of cotton fell so low it would not buy new seed. The only thing that saved them was raising sugar cain. The boot leggers would pay $1/gallon (a huge price during those times).
