    If any of you all have seen the DIY show Salvage Dawgs, this episode might bring back some nostalgia. We don't often get the chance to do wild tear downs like this, so when the opportunity to remove a massive safe door came up we immediately accepted the challenge. After being thwarted once by the flooring guys using explosive material on the day we showed up to set the door on fire, we returned a few days later to complete the job.
    Follow along with our successes, failures, and close calls on this episode! Let us know how you think we did in the comments below!

    As a contractor that's been doing this for over 36 years the organization and the scheduling of like say putting floor down before you take out a 10,000 lb vault door and everything which I don't know how much it weighs but I'm just telling you in your first few minutes showed me exactly what I dealt with for 36 years people do not know how to regulate or not regulate but the schedule let's just put that on it scheduled things in the proper order where it wouldn't be damaging other things that are happening they put one thing before another when Ashley the thing before that should have came let's destroy a perfectly good floor that shouldn't have been put in before this project was done and that's just way contractors are because they get paid on production of what they can get done the fastest and the unfortunate part is sometimes that's just the way it has to be because they got to get that check

    10:40 - *Impact first* , always lol, *ask me how I know*
    13:10 - *Confirmation* lol
    *This is definitely a testament to the Harbor Freight Gantry* !
    My initial worry was that it isn't mild steel for welding the D-rings. If it's hardened you would need to preheat to truly fuse. I would've welded a third as a backup "oh shit" feature lol. *I sat on edge through every minute of this video*
    20:45 - I'm so glad you mentioned safety in a serious sense! There's time for "safety squints" and a time for, "oh shit, we could lose a foot / leg" amazing job guys, you've long been my favorite channel and this video is another solid production!
    By the way, from a Business perspective, I wanted to make sure you're charging every client for *LIFT GATE SERVICE* every time that truck goes somewhere LOL, no, just kidding, but again guys, great work, great job, great attitudes, and video!
    33:54 - You can get bottles recertified, my local Linde / Praxair gave me the name of a place, $50 a bottle for testing / recertifications. I think it was a Fire Safety Equipment Supply type business, hydrostatic testing

    Same kind of job in Montreal... bank to police station. I lighten the door by dismantling the mechanics. Then we lift it up with a pallet jack and let it drop face down on tires. Same size but heavier and taller than yours. It went fine.

    Award for most 'special characters' in the intro! Get yourself a needle scaler for that rod slag - chip it away and stress relieve the weld bead all in one shot. That was a lot of effort and a blind man could see how it could have gone south in a hurry during the door move and lay-down. Great teamwork!

  • @alexcorvi2254

    Arc 3 really shafted you on your old tanks. They damn well know they’re still good and They just need to be hydro tested. Any good gas supplier that you give a good amount of business especially someone like yourself shouldn’t even question you on those tanks. Might be time to find yourself a new supplier. I can’t say enough good things about Linde gas

    • @kschleic9053
      @kschleic9053 8 місяців тому

      Without actually seeing the previous hydrotest stamps, I think it's unfair to say Arc3 is ripping him off... Maybe the tanks already failed to get a 10 year stamp previously and Arc3 could tell based on some other criteria (rust?) That they weren't going to pass the next test?

    A. Riggers you ain't. 😉 Moving that kind of stuff is what they do. I'm happy no one was killed or injured. I can't believe you trusted your life to Harbor Freight. B. Safe doors are often filled with concrete. Surprised the scrap yard didn't know that. C. I've seen tanks that were manufactured during WW2. Saying you can't reuse those tanks seems like bad information. D. You didn't blur all the Starbucks signs. 😂

    Air arc gouging could of been nice to remove those hinges too instead of that torch lol

  • @fredx6678
    @fredx6678 9 місяців тому

    Tay Tay Tay, pass on the gas. From what I have seen, especially if you want anything like a clean cut. Research " Air carbon arc cutting, metal arc gouging ". Way less expensive, way cleaner deeper cut, way less mess. Watch a video or two (2). It will blow your mind!

  • @JCWren
    @JCWren 9 місяців тому +2

    I think a thermal lance (or oxylance) might have been a better choice for cutting the hinges. With one of those you likely could have sectioned the door also.

    I immediately thought this episode was going to be cutting into Aaron’s safe, yeah I’m slow. Not sure why you didn’t just use the “go to” a 4 1/2 angle grinder with a chipped 9 inch abrasive wheel? That’s what they would hand me at my job.

  • @Preppy-m7d
    @Preppy-m7d 5 місяців тому

    Man that rigging was painful. For one the welded on D rings should have gone parallel on the top not 90 degrees and on that angle .
    The rigging once it was lifted they should have just layed it down flat as is , put on some dunnage then re rigged from the side and rolled up on its side and up, then roll cart under . Sketchy but otherwise I like the this channel 👍

  • @sparksmobilerepair4025
    @sparksmobilerepair4025 8 місяців тому +1

    hopefully you didn't get rid of those tanks. they just need to be rehydro tested. my local welding supply will take just about anything they just charge you a 30 dollar hydro fee. swap you out to new owner bottles and off you go.

    I don’t think you should have used nickel plated rings to lift from and it would be safer to weld them parallel with the door and use a spreader from a single chain fall. Side loading a lifting point can decrease its effective lifting capacity by 50% or more. Glad no one was hurt. That could have gone very, very badly. But, much more knowledge was gained and so overall a success!
