Homemade Oxy/Fuel Torch Radius Cutter and Straight Guided Cutting
Вставка

- We need to cut some steel plate for our house piers. A couple episodes ago, we made some steel wheels and then built a homemade cart to fit an Oxy/Fuel, propane fueled cutting torch. Sinde we need some 12 inch steel circles cut from our salvaged steel plate, it was time to make a radius cutter that would aid making accurate round circles. Here is my spin on making that tool.
Good video and job I think I will make one for my plasma cutter I have most of the parts if I can find them. Take care, be safe and well.
Thank you. I think you will have an easier time making a radius tool for your plasma torch. If you have a drag type cap, the height and flame are no issue. I recently unloaded my plasma equipment and even a CNC table I built many years ago. Figured I had retired and did not need such nonsense. Thanks for watching and take care yourself!
thanks sir form bangladesh❤
Thank you for watching our channel !
well done, cheers from Florida, Paul
Thanks, Paul. Watched a couple of your videos. Thanks for watching.
@@SpencersMountain thanks for taking the time to watch some of what I am up to....best wishes, Paul
Another great you for showing us your projects, tips, and tricks, guess I'll have to make one too, thanks
Love to see what you come up with. It is fun to share ideas and see how other people make it their own. Thank You for watching!
To set up faster, use a center point to find the center punch hole instead of drawing a circle .
Thank you for the advise. Thank you for watching!
Excellent! Love the locking collar and bushing bearing you made. Stroke of genius
Thanks. I can machine about anything but, making stuff from hardware store parts means anyone can copy the idea. It is more fun sharing ideas others can use. Thanks for watching.
@SpencersMountain I won't lie! I just ordered two of those bushings an a locking collar from Amazon!! Lol! Beats $80+ dollars for a store bought with no magnetic base.
@@buddymartin7923 Always fun making your own tools!
That's pretty easy and simple
Thanks. Thanks you for watching!
Start your cut with pressure on then you can use both hands free don't have to push the pressure all the time put it on the automatic mode.your tip is tooo close.very good tool with this i cut any shape clear as glass slag zero
Nice setup Steve, where will you be using the circles?
Thanks, Lance. Circles will be top of concrete foundation piers. 8x8 steel tube will be columns on those plates that will correct elevation to level the floor. Salvage steel cheaper than wood and much stronger in the end. Thanks for watching!
I like that expiscaly the high adjuster
@@rogertaylor8615 Thank you. These kinds of projects are fun to make when common parts and less fabrication/machine provides a functional tool. Thank you for watching.
Would you build one for me ? Of course I’d pay for it
I appreciate the confidence! These type tools are commercially available with a quick internet search. Buying tools has the appearance of being expensive, however pretty much every tool I have ever purchased paid for itself several times over. There are many ways to make a similar tool and this video is simply one of them. Learning skills, putting those skills to use and concurring a vision can be very satisfying. Anything can be accomplished by breaking a bigger task into smaller steps. The trick is deciding where satisfaction comes from. Thank you for watching!
Think it would work for a plasma cutter too
If it was sized for a plasma torch, yep. Thanks for watching!
@@SpencersMountain thanks
Buenísimo
Quisiera tener uno
Glad you found this project interesting to you. There are many ways to made this tool. Thank you for watching!
