    "You don't need to take a class on it... Just start doing it!"
    Words of wisdom from Andrew Camarata!!! We should all be so bold!

      And he's right with that! As i was on a school internship at a company that build metal structures like stairs, platforms, metal gates and much more, one day i and a coworker just grabbed the welders because there was nothing else to do on that day (we had been cleaning EVERYTHING before and couldnt continue with work because we were waiting for a delivery) so instead of just sitting around we just took some parts of the scrap box and started to weld them together randomly like art. I never welded before, only watched others weld stuff, but i did it like i really learned it. Even the boss said that my welded parts look almost like he made it himself.

      But once you know something, going back and learning it properly is important and helps you learn even more. Learning the proper way has to come eventually, we should all want to do the best we can

      The problem with classes is that it institutionalizes learning. Creatures don't learn by institutions. We learn by doing. However, there's no replacement for meeting someone with a lifetime of experience who could save you years by lending their wisdom. That's how we as people have always done it. Learn by doing but find a master if you can. Plenty of old-timer welders out there. In my high school days one of them came by the auto shop looking for any of us interested in being the next generation. That graybeard had the look of a wizard and probably forgot more about welding than a decent mechanic knows.

    I figured the weather or maybe some jobs had Andrew too busy to post some video's. Then I found he had strung a bunch of the castle build videos together. I immediately put in a link to that. Of course after watching the amazing steel fabrication and concrete work several time already I try and jump past some of it. I do have to agree that Andrew needs a break sometimes and we should just sit back and enjoy some old videos to something new comes along. Then just an hour ago there was the Kabota tractor welding job and snowy cleanup of logs and stumps. Love it! Snow don't slow Andy down much. Can't help but think that grappling (whatever it's called) will give Andrew some ideas. Great to see the way he does things so straight forward and well thought out. Love his toys. Terry

    Proper way to make gussets for high stress corners like this, is to
    round the ends, and stop the weld like a 1/4" from the ends of the gusset. Also leave a gap at the inside corner.
    Allows more even force distribution. Watch out for cracking in the corners and ends, on triangle plates like this.
    Probably be fine, but if it cracks eventually, that's why. Them sharp corners concentrate force into small hot spots.

    Andrew, I think that you did a really good thing in getting a puppy while Levi is still spry enough to show him the ropes of surviving on a worksite.

    Hey Andrew...Wire welders are no dought nice but; I really like the ole stick welding. I welded my entire life started at age 12 now i am 65. I welded railroad rails with 10018 1/4 rods it was a step up from 7018 Very strong and machinable. I called it missile rod most beautiful beads when you chipped of that slag. Any way love watching your videos. If you ever weld on cracked or broken cast manifolds try warming it abit and welding it with inner shield wire slowly and grinding between short spurts of welding. It worked for me when nothing else seemed to.

      If you add the 3rd function to the front it will add much versatility. Many types of equipment then are available to you.
      The skidding winch is really a fun tool. Mine has 165 feet of cable plus I have a 100 foot extension. Look at Wallenstein products made in Canada. They make the best.

    I love that you don't let winter slow you down. I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Winter is my favorite season to spend time in the woods. No bugs, the bears are snoozing, and the scenery is magical.

    I’m surprised with all his energy and skill he doesn’t have some sort of winch driven elevator lift on the outside of the castle yet.
    I wouldn’t put people or Levi on a lift that I built of course.
    But if Andrew made it, then maybe I’d ride a homemade lift.

    • @forge20

      Lifts that are certified to haul people require a lot of permitting and safety review. Not that Andrew couldn't do it, but it's an expensive PITA.

    Andrew, I was thinking maybe you could do a video this spring talking about your drone(s) since you seem to use yours so much. Things like the somewhat-new FAA regulations, how you chose your drone, learning to fly it (or showing how easy the ones like your DJI are to fly), and the many things for which you use yours might be some good topics to cover. Keep it up, you're my favorite channel and I always learn something new!
