Do you have any plans on this by any chance?

[@WideVisionMetalFab]

For some reason, this video has really been popular for the last few weeks and I've had several requests for plans. So, I am putting them together. They have all the dimensions from several different views, and several renderings as well as step by step explinations. They are quite detailed! Probably a couple weeks away from having a finished set? Send me an e-mail, and I'll let you know when they are ready for purchase. Price is $20.

@@WideVisionMetalFab - Still have the plans for this build?

[@AndersonCattleCo]

New material makes it way faster and building the one before was a huge help

[@donsmith9081]

Nice Job!

[@Reftravun]

Interesting build, really well supervised by the canine quality inspector!

[@WideVisionMetalFab]

Thanks! And now that Dakota is finally not a puppy, he's hanging around the shop supervising more. Also, he was really fond of that chute!

30 hours seems like warp speed compared to what I would be able to do. Nice fabrication!

[@WideVisionMetalFab]

That's basically what the customer said. And Thanks!

[@JimTurnerGenuine]

Nice build....nice to have a bridge crane

[@WideVisionMetalFab]

Thanks! And yep, I don't know how people get along without one!

[@cattleranch2462]

I like your videos. I also build lots of stuff out of oil pipe. Any suggestions of how you would build a latch on a double swing gates??

[@WideVisionMetalFab]

Thanks! Unfortunately I have little suggestions for that other than use a chain. For one customer, I welded the sucker rod box ends vertically, one on each gate, and dropped a piece of sucker rod through them. It kinda works. He had me come back and add a chain as a safety. I saw a neat design once where a piece of metal piece bent like a "7" flipped over and locked both gates together. I did an image search, and can't find it. But "System Fencing" has a "V" shaped one that's the same idea. I think if do a search for "system fencing double gate latch" you should be able to find it.
