Hey i just wanted to say thank you. You inspired me to start welding about a year and 1/2 ago. Got my first truck 1 year ago, and last week, i got my first engine drive welder. I made more in my first welding job than i made in 2 weeks working in a warehouse.
It’s always good to carry along a 2x4 stud for leverage. At 1:55, a stud against the top of the rail and braced to your truck would have made the straightening an easy adjustment. So glad to see the homeowner and you wanting to preserve the historical value. Good job!
Pretty cool Anthony! My Grandparents lived in the big white house that used to be on that property. I grew up playing in that giant yard! The house is a few blocks north now. Im an aspiring welder. I appreciate your inspiring videos. People who don't, well we know what they can go do.... Thanks for the videos!
Yo anthony aint been here in a min!! One of the things i was paying attention to was the time lapse on the video from noon to dawn trying to get that shi right lot of foos dont get the time it takes forreal if u like what u saw like the vid if you dont GFY 🤣🤣 shout out from Anaheim big dog
I love your videos, I’ve been in the metal fabrication business for 40 years. I was taught years ago that you want to apply heat to were you want to shrink the metal, on that post you applied too much heat and caused it to go the wrong direction.. Keep up the Great work 👍🏻🇺🇸
When you focus the heat primarily in the front it causes the front of the bar to shrink when cooled, bending the bar toward. You can straighten the bar without pulling to extend just by heating strategically and then cooling with air
Great job , i like all of your videos. Thanks for explaining why no prep. We must preserve our history. Can’t wait for your next welding adventure. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
heck yea!!! been waitin for a new video :) i did a similar thing on a weed eater bracket on a utility trailer and fixed some broken welds on . good job as always !
Keep them coming brother!! Great vid 🤟🫡 starting my own welding bussines and ur a great part of my learning, thanks for spreading ur knowledge and being upfront w it, no sugar coating
I hope you don't mind me giving a recommendation, but instead of ratchet straps maybe a come along might have bent it back a little better? I got one that goes up to 3/4 ton that I use to bend heavy duty mudflap brackets back into place with.
You did not get that straight I would have tried a little harder on that second piece their was a bend in the bottom bracket you missed. I understand field work is not always practical so good enough. thanks for the share brotha.
Nice work, I’m thinking a cable come along would be a little better than the ratchet strap but that’s just coming from a dumb forklift production mig welder congrats on 100k
Hells yeah bro some new stuff I’m been watching for couple weeks now I like your content a lot been getting me motivated to do similar kind thing in northeast I went bout piece shit engine drive to restore I don’t have truck but I do have hitch for trailer so I’m gonna go that route untill I can upgrade
You can fix that thing with two hammers. Big hammers. I think two two-pound hammers will do the trick. Hit one with your left hand like an anvil on the other. The oxygen and the truck seemed odd, but it's still a good job.
Want to get side work but its pretty hard around my area. No hits using the normal ways except time wasters. To many farmers that fix their own stuff 😂
I’ve been welding on steel flat beds for the last 3 years … I’ll look over and notice the ground isn’t even on my item. Yet grounding perfectly okay. 2019 f350 4 door .. never had any electrical issues yet haha. It’s more of a myth it will fry computers and shit
Hey man I watch a lot of your videos and I notice you use ratchets a lot. I’m a commercial fence guy and we use the crap out of come alongs. Get a lot more leverage and pulling power. I’ve got about 1/2 a dozen on my rig. Just thought you may get some good use out of one.
I know you know what you're doing, but you'd be able to manipulate it a lot better with a chain hoist from harbor freight. I keep one in my truck for things like that. Lot more ass than a ratchet strap
I have a stupid idea. It may or may not work. I’m not sure what you’re using to hook your leads to the machine. How ever, if you were able to add an extra lug or something to where you could have 2 grounds. One permanent to the vice and the other just like normal. If this sounds dumb, I’m sorry. I was just thinking how much it sucks to run back and get the ground clamp and have to fight with all the leads.
Hey I just found your channel. I want to start mobile welding, I planned on getting a truck and some tools. What are some now tool do I need to buy to start. Ps I love your video very helpful 🙏
That’s exactly what I thought. You and the owner sat down and wanted to preserve the antique fence. Nice work, brother.
*That blacksmith that died 160 years ago is happy you saved his fence and the Yellowstone elevation looks like it agrees with you.*
At 6:24 when he says “I need a ground, don’t I” I felt that

That's huge, congrats
Keep going bro!!
Awesome! Congratulations brother!

I’m a welder in school right now and your videos are very informative I love that you explain every step
Awesome! Thank you!
Join a Union. You will be glad you did later-when you want to retire.
What a unexpected treat. Good to hear from you
Thanks bud

Haven't seen you in quite a while man, great to see you in action again!

Always good to see a new video. You keep me motivated. I also just got a trailblazer 302, I so badly want to start my own gig. Thank you Anthony

Thanks to the camera operator. Great team work.
Thank you. I always learn something from your videos. The fence looks great.
At 6:20 “Need a fuckin ground…” 😂 been there a few times!
The spots you did have to grind you can brush some vinegar on then spray a little peroxide and it will flash rust in minutes

Hope the house ia coming along. You're living in the best part of the country!
Thanks bud! It is coming along
Hickey bar would have worked wonders there.

Hell yea Rockstar!!! 100K and an awesome fence repair! What a fuckin' great video! Hammer down pedal to the floor pal!
lol.. the “if you didn’t like it, go fuck yourself” with the people walking by in the background 🤣🤣🤜🏼🤛🏼💥
Great repair Anthony!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
congrats on the 100,001 subs
Trying to start a mobile business in the northeast and I love your content man!
Thanks!
The GFY at the end really brought it all together 🥹
Good to see a new video, btw you doing fabtech this year.
Yes I am! Come get a free sticker!
Hey man thanks for posting I have learned a lot from your videos.
Glad to hear it
Good video. Enjoy it as always have a great day!!
You too bud
Great job looks great 👍 👌
If you didn't like it....
Classic!
aye congratulation on 100k gonna have the play button in the post soon ;)
I wonder when they send that
Props for not accidently torch cutting the ratchet straps! 😂
It don’t look like it but I keep a eye on where it’s pointing at all times lol
Good to see a new video bro
Nice job man!
Thanks!
Get this man a come along geez I’m surprised at how far he got with that thing
Great video and work always love how you explain things and why your doing it that way 👍👍
Great job mate
As always something new and interesting
Good to see a full video. ✌🏻
Just remember they called you not any of the trolls… you are inspiring.
6:25 every welders pet peeve 🤣
Love that outro. Love this channel.
I like how you verbalize your thought process. Curious how you estimated this job.
I hope you don't mind me giving a recommendation, but instead of ratchet straps maybe a come along might have bent it back a little better? I got one that goes up to 3/4 ton that I use to bend heavy duty mudflap brackets back into place with.
Get a come along and it works way better than melting your ratchet tie downs. Good work👍
“…if you didn’t like it, well GFY.” Hilarious!!! 😅😅
when you heat one side more than the other side - it expand more, BUT ! later - it shrinks more than "cold" side.
Very true
Ennis is a nice little town!
You did not get that straight I would have tried a little harder on that second piece their was a bend in the bottom bracket you missed. I understand field work is not always practical so good enough. thanks for the share brotha.
nice work i agree keeping look awesome too
Nice work, I’m thinking a cable come along would be a little better than the ratchet strap but that’s just coming from a dumb forklift production mig welder congrats on 100k
Might be worth investing in a 1/2 ton come a long. I feel so sketchy using a ratchet strap that way
I love how there were people walking by as you said your outro. They were probably laughing when they heard "Well go F yourself." Lol.
this guy is frickin hilarious, i laughed so hard at that part lol
For repairs like that a couple of high life farm jacks would be real handy for bending.
Use them like manual porta powers.
Hells yeah bro some new stuff I’m been watching for couple weeks now I like your content a lot been getting me motivated to do similar kind thing in northeast I went bout piece shit engine drive to restore I don’t have truck but I do have hitch for trailer so I’m gonna go that route untill I can upgrade
You got this!
100 year old fence repair , kicks fk out of it ! Ha ha , only joking Meltin . Good job man 👍
What type of welding helmet do you recommend for a beginner like me?
Cast iron sparks look like sparklers going off
Could you simply use a piece of angled barstock and some C clamps to bend that back into shape after heating and also kept it straight?
Possibly
I am not a welder but how did the grass not catch on fire from all the sparks sent out while you were welding? This why I could never be one to ask.
its alot harder for alive grass to catch on fire than dead grass. maybe he just threw a lil water on it as well

Always a way! Just find something people need and fill the niche
Hello man, tell me what kind of red electrodes the full name is
Looks like you needed a half ton come along/lever chain hoist.
hey anthony, do you ever disconnect the positive cable on your truck battery before welding anything attached to your vise?
If the car is running, nothing will happen.
No it would be odd for the electric to travel that far. It finds the path of least resistance
I’ve been welding on steel flat beds for the last 3 years … I’ll look over and notice the ground isn’t even on my item. Yet grounding perfectly okay.
2019 f350 4 door .. never had any electrical issues yet haha. It’s more of a myth it will fry computers and shit
love it
Was that a 6010 rod?
you in in Missoula? i miss the Zoo town!
Just burn the bottom in and pull them together with a comealong (ratchet strap)??
Hey man I watch a lot of your videos and I notice you use ratchets a lot. I’m a commercial fence guy and we use the crap out of come alongs. Get a lot more leverage and pulling power. I’ve got about 1/2 a dozen on my rig. Just thought you may get some good use out of one.
I have one when I pull on big stuff. Little stuff like this, I like the straps
He make it so difficult to fixed
Yesss a new video, congrats on 100k
Thanks bud!
I would’ve cut out the bent ones and put new ones.
I know you know what you're doing, but you'd be able to manipulate it a lot better with a chain hoist from harbor freight. I keep one in my truck for things like that. Lot more ass than a ratchet strap
It hurts my head when guys use tie down straps for come alongs. Surely, by now, you can afford real tools. Good show as always. ✌️
They’re quicker for small shit
Ehh, we've got a wee i think 1-2 ton cone along at work. Real handy on most stuff due to the size
"i need a ground dont i" nah lol
In Germany we would say " Das hat zu lange gedauert"
Use dark safety glasses > Face shields and no eye protection lol
You sponsored by rock mount? Or pay hundreds of dollars every time?😂they worth it tho.
Just heat up and hammer no straps needed
Pretty sure the whole concrete edging is crooked
Did you burn your hand 😁

Nah only criticism was not straighting the top and then welding the bottom before ever cutting the poles now the one side you cut is short lol
Ports press woulda been better
Waste of time
@@MeltinMetalAnthony lol 😝
Hey I just found your channel. I want to start mobile welding, I planned on getting a truck and some tools. What are some now tool do I need to buy to start.
Ps I love your video very helpful 🙏
Get a cable comalong and I’m sure u will
Have one. Use it on stuff that I really need to move
11:03
real world keeping patina.. you aren't the one with a cookie cutter welding job and bad opinions. I wouldn't even mention them.
That’s really not my fault
Did you hit the fence 😂
“Shouldn’t of been standing there”
Happy Gilmore
All the wrong points of contact what a joker 😂
Nice work!!! Hey can I contact you about my MMA tee shirt??? I purchased the same one you have on, but in blue.
Sure Dm me on Instagram
