HOLY NUTS I lost track of how large the gantry was, during the first part of the video. Being able to lift a lathe like that is really cool. As a carpenter, ive had to help friends move huge jointers and planers; moving huge machinery like that really sucks, and with your gantry you make it look super easy
Really nice welding. I read one of the comments on placing the cross beam as a butt joint laying on top of the vertical supports. That could be welded directly or welded plates on the vertical members and bolted into place. That would make for a far smaller disassembled crane for shipping, etc.. plus no shear pressure on the welds and it seems like it would take less time to fabricate. Your crane gets five stars (out of five) from me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Massive build! I would be concered tha the 6 bolts at each end of the gantry is all that would keep the load from causing the bolts to shear and the load crashing to the ground. I would have put the horizontal beam on top of the vertial supports so that gravity supports the load. That might happen if you have to lift a jumbo jet. 😆 It sure beats the HF gantry crane!
Overall, this is a highly informative and enjoyable video for anyone interested in engineering. It showcases your talent and expertise while providing valuable insights and inspiration to fellow enthusiasts. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to watching more of your content in the future 👍👍👍
I have watched several Gantry cranes but am especially impressed with this particular crane. How can I get a step by step how to with dimensions. Thank you.
NICE!👍👍👍 The only bad part is the six bolts which clamp the horizontal joist to the vertical legs are super stressed. Weld a plate to the vertical leg so that the joist sits on a platform.
I would put some angled bracing in the corners where the upwrights meet the cross beam for not only added capacity but strength aswell by the looks of what he was lifting i would give it a cosevative 1 ton rating as is nice job
DIY it is oke, but safety design and work it is first, design must be using interlock techniq for heavy lifting machine also the gravity centre must be fixed when you try to moving the machine (that crane) and loading. happy DIY and enjoy the job.
Dude, INSANE! I'm from India, i need to build a crane like this for installing Strongroom door (Vault Door). Can you please give the design of this crane? Like thickness of the tubes and height etc. Would be very helpful, Thank you! :)
Hello friend, the tubes are all 3 mm thickness and the plates 12mm you can build it for the dimensions you need,but not overcome 300-340 cm height and 250-260cm wide(for safety) thank you for commenting,
"Dancing with a lathe". There isn't any locking mechanism for the traverse, no? So the crane must be perfectly level when you lift or you'll be in trouble, right?
Overall good design, but I think you took the strength you built into the frame out of the equation when you bolted the crossmember to the posts... good work though!
By the looks ya should've made the damn thing wider. I bet that's your only regret.. Of course the trussel on top would have to be about 4 to 6 inches taller to carry the load. That's pretty big. Impressed.
Hello Joseph, every build could be better the second time, am very happy by the result as is my first time i build something like that but like i said second time could be better thanks for commenting
Its oil especially for cutting milling , can be used for lathes drill milling machines and band saw , its called metal working fluids easy to find thank u for commenting
would have been nice if you indicated the dimensions. At least how tall and long is the beam. Looks like 12 ft. long by 12 inches tall. And guessing 3/16 inch wall thickness on the tubing.
great job! can you tell me what is name and model of you're lathe? I have the same lathe but I assume mine is cloned because its made in soviet Ukraine

Hello Jeff Okriya, i agree but for my needs is more than enough that way,the heaviest thing i will ever lift is my lathe about 20cm to put my handlift under Thank you for commenting
Really like this simple but effective build. Thanks for showing it.
Bravo Man! this is the only real crane heavy lift in youtube, 1300kg !
LIke your style, overbuild it, and never have to worry, very good. You and that guy from Fireball Tools build everything to last.
Thank you, appreciated!!

thank you
You are a tru badass…not many have your skills!
Endlich mal jemand der schweissen kann, respekt !!!
Danke Hans - Dirk Kumpfert
As someone working out of a garage shop without a band saw, cutting a pice of steel as thick as that is INCONCEIVABLE. Very cool
...have steel yard cut it for you then.
That must come in very handy. I sometimes work alone and I need something like this. I need to make the time and use my powerarc to make one soon.
Hello Lucaas Robinson, is a lot of work but will be very helpful !!!
Dayuhm! You got some clean welds
Great job, you have good fabricating and welding skills

Excellent idea and good job
Thank you!!
As the supported weight tends to spread the feet, maybe it would be wise to add gussets in the top corners? just a suggestion, in case….

What is the power of the thing you have made and how much weight can it lift
Fantástico.
Qual o dimensionamento do material utilizado?
Когда всё необходимое под рукой такие самоделки - ДА, ЛЕГКО!
спасибо за комментарий
really fantastic job - would be interesting to see what this will be rated at - cheers from Australia - I've subscribed.
Thank you :)
What size wall thickness for the square tube? Thanks for the video.

That right there is why we all learned how to weld.
Dude where did you get those wheels? I want to build on that will lift 6000 lbs! Thanks bud!!
hi @LTDan-pk3mx and thnks for commenting, at local diy shop they are really strong and heavy duty wheels but expensive too
Bien hecho y muy robusto, felicidades
Good job if you mentioned the size of tubes ?
Genius, well done 👍
Thank you !!
நல்ல தகவல்🇮🇳🌷 good work
very nice build
Nice Engineering man

The gantry: a safe way to hoist heavy duty!
Estupendo trabajo, que medidas y calibres son los perfiles,las ruedas y capacidad de carga, gracias por compartir exitos
Liked your cutting saw. Can you please share the details of it?? Preferably the website link of it
Cool work sir 👍👏
I want to make one of these. And what is the name / model of bandsaw you are using? I have one but this stand-up unit is nice.
Hey man I appreciate the effort the video
Hello Anthony,thanks for commenting ! :)
Q medida de perfil uso para la parte de arriba donde soporta la carga
What is your steel size you are using?
100x100 3mm
on top 50x50 3m
thank you
@@cutweld7034 thank you! I'm got some confused, Please tell me the lengn and pipe thickness.
Thank you
How do you lock the gantry rollers at the top?
I dont , my floor is level so is unnecessary to lock the rolles
Why didn't you use the bridge triangle support for the gantry?
Hello,for my needs its okay without any support ,thanks

Merci beaucoup Mostefaoui Fodhil
Very nice video, what type of band saw is that?
It`s bemato bandsaw am very happy with it,thank you for commenting
Hi friend, what is the roller model that you used ?
Thank you.
Am not sure for the roller model, you can ask to diy for the strongest they have :P
thank you for commenting
Отличная идея. Хочу такой же собрать. Поделитесь ли вы чертежами и размерами .За ранее большое спасибо.
Зачем " нашему" человеку чертежи? Все равно будете делать под свои нужды из того что есть на металоприемке
What box size box tubing is used and at what wall thickness??? This only looks like 1/8" thick.
Cool work 👏👍
thank you
Where can i buy a Saw like that? thanks for sharing.
Great gantry crane I like to have one like that.
Thanku chris schoendorf
Excelente trabajo me puede enviar el detalle de los materiales utilizados para armarme uno x favor

Cuántos kilos soporta la estructura?
Capacidad de carga?
Felicitaciones por su trabajo muy bien echo saludos
Thank you for commenitng :)
Overall good design, but I think you took the strength you built into the frame out of the equation when you bolted the crossmember to the posts... good work though!
Those welds look a bit dirty, I would have cleaned/grind those areas to remove paint before welding though.
I agree.
Nice work

That was pretty scary the way it was flexing when you were lifting that lathe. Probably why you stopped and didn't go any further no doubt.
Como se llama tu máquina la primera con la que cortar los ptrs
How many tons can it lift?
Dear sir ,could you give some specification about the chain block that you just used ..we are in need ..thank you
The question still remains: How did he get that big biitch up in the air?
Did you weld a piece of angle iron on and bellow the top beam?
Yes, thanks for commenting
Muy bonita y resistente pero te faltaron unos cartabones arriba en las esquinas para reforzarla aún más.
thank you
Can I ask what is that water mix with something or oil when cutting with the bandsaw?
Its oil especially for cutting milling , can be used for lathes drill milling machines and band saw , its called metal working fluids easy to find
thank u for commenting
impressive skill
thank you !!!
would have been nice if you indicated the dimensions. At least how tall and long is the beam. Looks like 12 ft. long by 12 inches tall. And guessing 3/16 inch wall thickness on the tubing.

Why you did not use a standart I-beam ? As i see it, i beam is lighter and stronger
I beam was an option too,but the tubing is used are strong enough and more beautiful
thanks for commenting
@@cutweld7034 I beam would have saved a lot of work. You would have then been able to use a "monkey" to attach the chain block, that would have saved more work.
Is top rail stronger than I-Beam? I have to build one, just wondering...
Hello I Am, what size i beam ? The i beam will be stronger but also much heavier
@@cutweld7034 Thank you very much. I like your idea.
@@repentfulsinner Thank you :)
Hey can you do a hydraulic car jack
A simple one 😀
the main beam is wrongly designed, needs cross members instead of just perpendicular ones. Another thing I would have designed differently is the tie between the beam and the columns, the beam should rest on the columns not on the bolts.. . craftsmanship is good. . congrats
