    The thing at the end of the tape measure is supposed to move and you should not push it in when using it as a hook. It should move exactly the same distance as the thickness of the metal it is made out of. That way you get an accurate measurement if it is being used as a hook or if it is being pressed against something.

      @@wranglerstar Looks like you've been playing around with dolly effects too? That was a really drawn out crosscut with the saw that was very cinematic and the slow pan while you were behind the bench at 3:26 was a neat perspective. Keep up the interesting shots. There's another content creator that I watch (Ryan Knorr) who just visited some of his friends in Utah and he made a cinematic video of his trip. His passion is lawn care, but he's got a great eye for video production.

    that wiggling on the end of the tape measure is by design; because when taking a measurement say in a room, against a wall, you press the metal piece against the wall and measure from the end of the metal piece; but when you then hook up the metal piece to your work piece, you measure from the other side of that metal piece; thats why that piece wiggles the distance of its own width.

    Wow, I've been 'burning an inch' for years, without realizing it was a thing done in the trades, to the point of having a name for it! I just do it in cases like yours here, where the tab is hard to line up to a mark, or if measuring from the end of a piece and the tab has been smashed and is no longer accurate. Funny story, I once tried 'fixing' one of those tabs on a tape measure, by hammering the rivets to prevent its movement, until an old handyman wised me up that it moves like that for a reason. It 'wiggles' by precisely the same distance as the metal tab is thick. So if you hook it over an end, the inside of the tab is accurate to the marks. If you push the tab up against say an inside corner of a piece, the outside of the tab is accurate to the marks. If you hammer the rivets to cancel that movement, it'll only be accurate in one of those situations. Or neither, and will be somewhere in between.

    I built a bench top like this a year ago out of 4x4’s. The wood was way more wet than I thought it was, it shrank and warped so much that my only option was to crank the bolts tighter and put a sheet of hardwood plywood over it. I already leveled the top with a router and jig before it dried, doing it again would thin it too much I think. Lessons learned!

  • @richardallan455
    @richardallan455 4 роки тому

    Hi Wranglerstar , great workbench build,thank you. Regardless of whether your Mig is ESAB or Miller all can play up. I would recommend never ever run rusty wire through the liner as it will deposit debris and dust over time and slow down your drive so you must then change the liner.
    Also do not have the drive roll tensioner too tight and try whenever possible to keep the torch /hand piece as straight as possible when welding they perform poorly when in a loop or tight circles .You must also use the correct drive wheels for the wire type and its good practice if the machine is not being used long term to remove the wire so you are not tempted to run it when rusty. Also if stored, do not leave the wire tensioner tight long term, keep it unscrewed until you need it I am not a fan of magnets they can mess up your arc sometimes.Any help I can offer just message me,Richard.

      The difference between an inside corner and an outside corner. I always "burn an inch" even on flat rules just as habit. Sometimes rules start at the very edge, sometimes you have to look close to see they start a little inboard of the edge. Just more accurate to start at the 1 inch mark.

You put the work into what you needed and most likely thought of alternatives based on other's opinions. There was a reason you resolved the way you did. By the Miller!

    Is the camera slider new? Maybe just new to me, but it really improves your video quality and adds another dimension to your videos :D

    You and Jack should look into a GORUCK Light Challenge. I think it would be good for him. Good people, good gear.

    The modern ESAB welders are really good. That being said, I bought a Thermalarc welder that has been absolutely phenomenal. Unfortunately, they cancelled my model years ago and now people are selling them for 4x-5x as much as I paid for it new 8 or so years ago.
