Dang is there anything you can’t do? Phones, watches, car windows, now carports?? What a stud!
Are your posts also slanted from front to back? What happens when you install the tin roofing. Does it just slight bend level at the front and back.
Since you've welded the perimeter 2x4s to the insides of the posts, does it leave 4 inches on the front and back posts to be level with the ground?
Looks great. Thanks for showing the roof install.
Looks good. Great job
Thanks 👍
Job well done. I'm going to be doing similar. Thanks for sharing.
Great job!👍 Finally someone that does and amazing carport and the right way.👍😎
I'm envious. Cool video. thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice work I noticed how you use the level pretty much in every direction which is an awesome idea!
Great job!
Looks great!
Thanks!
Bro you make a hurricane proof carport! But your daughter’s swing set is about to collapse 😂.. better make one out of metal!!
Challenge accepted
Excellent job! Good video too. I desperately need to do this at my house.
Painting the frame before placing the roof sections would be a good idea plus the roof should be about a foot wider than the frame from all sides so the rain water doesn't ruin the metal frame, agree?
Totally agree, if you are going to paint it that would be best.
Fantastic job....just one critique. I'm a metal roof installer, and The screw you fastened on the roof panel goes on the ribs of the panels, not on the flat. This is so that water has less space to puddle and runs off the rib, verses puddling on the flat...yes, even if it's on a slight pitch, water will puddle around the screw, shortening it's lifespan. Over all, good job.
What would you recommend to repair corroded metal beams on my carport?
@@marieplocher7247 it depends on the severity of the corrosion. If you have surface rust with pitting, you can remove the rust with a grinder that has a wire brush attachment, sand stripper attachment, or a grinder attachment. Again, depends on the severity of the corrosion. After you have removed the rust, remove all dust particles with air and a nylon bristle brush. Then apply a rust bond to the affected area(s) with roller or brush, then apply a good oil base paint with roller or brush as well. Roller and brushes push the paint into fine crevasses better method than spraying. Now, if you can see holes through the steel, I'd recommend replacing the beam. A temporary fix would be to prep the affected area as stated above, but before applying rust bond and paint, you can weld pieces of steel to the affected area. Make sure the steel is thick enough to support the structure....then apply the bonding agent and paint. With structural support, i advise replacing the beam rather than piece weld it. Hope this helps.😊
I'd cut out the bad and put in some good. If it's surface rust just clean that shit up and paint it.
Im also gonna be doing one 20x30.. i see you put some poles on thr center.. did u really need it or ?? Could i run a 20x30 with out putting center beams ?
Nice
Super!!!! Good job, can you please supply a list of materials and (dimensions and gauges)
Great work! What gauge steel were you using?
Why did you choose to set the poles on piers as opposed to dropping them into the concrete?
How did you lift the steel and what guage did you go with??
What about painting the steel? The posts next to the house are too close to ever paint. Deadblow hammers can reduce the noise a little.
Ehh I love smacking half inch square tube til it does what I want with a 4lb hammer. My co workers don't though. 🤷♂️
What is the wall thickness of the square tubing? Looks like .095
Nice job bro
looks great!
Very nice!!! How big and what was the cost?
Sweet beautiful 👍🏼
Looks good👍
This nuts 😂 got it
Très très beau travail bravo..( Mr vous ressembler à un de nos ministres en France 😅😅😅👍🏻👍🏻🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Can you tell me the tichness of the steel? is it 2mm or 3mm
Thank you for u video, that's exactly I'm going to build my carport
Awesome job! What welding machine are you using
Just a typical harbor freight one
Looks good, What thickness is the tubing?
Same here what's the thickness of material please???
Most likely 2mm
What gauge are the posts and what gauge are the beams?
Great job what welder did you use
Bro good job! This comment section makes me laugh. Everyone is so critical (your welder sucks, your notches suck, your roof slope sucks). These people don't know what they are talking about. This is A grade work!
Thanks for being one of the awesome ones!
Looks Good guy nice work! Must have cost a lot for material?
How much does that roofing material cost
Awesome work 🤙🏽 are you using flux ? 030?
Awesome carport. Could you tell me what gauge sheet metal roofing you used?
No ladder support on the cross beams?
It looks very good, I'm curious as to the slope you used and welder.
looking at the welds I would say its a flux cored MIG process. The welds have a sand coloured flux around them which is what you get using flux. This is the correct choice for outdoors and thin metal.
I saw it in the background. It was a Chicago electric from harbor freight. Personally wouldn’t recommend but to each their own
@@tylershields1076 If its the cheap version I wouldn't personally go for those either. The Vulcan series of welders (the orange ones) are highly regarded by the experienced hobby welders though so I wouldn't hesitate picking up one of those. That Vulcan 215 machine is a beast!
@@frankish5314 buy once cry once, if you can afford it, get a nice welder. Iv got a Lincoln MP 210. $2000 new with 75/25 bottle and argon bottle, wire, tig petal, stick leads, everything. It’ll weld anything you want except aluminum.
@@calebsmith95 Normally I would agree with you. But when something goes wrong with that Lincoln you might find the repair costs are less than a new Vulcan. Now I don't own a Vulcan but I have a few people I follow that rave about them. I also own a 200A Lotos AC/DC tig. a Northern Tool 110V portable Mig and 110V off brand DC stick machine. I have owned these for a few years and have not had a problem with any of them and when does croak they are all throwaway machines. 10 years ago I would have bought a high end machine like yours, but things have changed recently in the hobby market.
Could the notches weakened the tubing in any way? (Hope you understand my question, English is my second language)
If you the spans are long without any support in the bottom yes but here it's alright the roof is not too heavy
I wouldn't notch it, it's too much work and yes, it weakens it.
I was wondering the same
these are square tubes of how much by how much, thank you
What size metal did you use, size and thickness.
Thanks for the video. But may I suggest you use Mobil 1 oil filters rather than Fram. If you open them both you’ll see that Mobil 1’s build quality is way better than Fram.
Also, how much you spent.....more than less?
What gauge are the posts 4x4
Are you in Vegas?
What kind of welding machine u are using?
This is mig/mag welding.
Are you welding with flux core of mig gas ?
Flux core releases a releases a much more toxic gas, I would avoid that. Stick rod is best if you have any wind, knock the slag off and wire brush it before painting.
@@stevewilcox1755 Stick electrodes are self shielded just like flux core- only with coating on the outside. Both can be used in windy conditions.
When you compress the screw the way you did is call fisheyes that’s a no no.
I call it brown eye ...
You not suppose to notch Girders
Lock washers dude or locktite
a lot of unnecessary cuts sice everything is welding joins but over all is ok

COULD YOU GIVE ME THE DIMENSIONS OF THE VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL TUBES PLEASE
vai con 80x80 pilastri e 80x40 arcarecci per una struttura 6 metri x 6 metri. Minimo, ma 100x100 e 100x50 ancora meglio. spessore 2mm. se prendi tubolari gia zincati in fabbrica ti risparmi la verniciatura
Bonjour mauvaise travaille il faut fabriquer tous a la terre et après faire la pose comme tu veut , il faut utiliser l'attachement boulonnerie , pourquoi le soudage,
Wow I’ve never seen some one that would really let the water run back into their own yard specially in the kids playground ..😬😬😬😬 big no no .. lol 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️👎
Shall I make it run into my front yard where my kids play instead or how about my neighbors yard were there grand kids play... in all seriousness even though its not in the video I later installed a gutter to direct the water where it should go.
There's a genius in every crowd 👎
Hello! I am a manufacturer fo laser welding / cutting machine, if you need these machine now or later, please feel free to contact us, thanks.
Your a little bit to extra brother
