Hidden Welding Lead Wells - Secure Your Leads or They WILL Be Stolen (Pipeliner Welding Bed Build)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 січ 2025
- In this video, I will be building custom storage boxes / holes for welding leads on this custom pipeline style welding bed. I will be using a Victor torch to cut some 3/16" plate and a mag drill to drill holes in the bottom plate of our welding lead wells. We are going with a simple design and a simple lockable lid.

Dang looking good bed Austin.
Well done. Neat work, Thanks for posting this series, Mike
Really needed this video right now…
Good job Austin, it's looking better and better !! Install some security cameras on that truck too. Never hurts to have pictures of the culprit that stole things from you. Stay safe around there and continue with the great videos. Fred.
Awesome video Austin💯
Very good Video 👍 👍
Go man GO!!!
A few years ago I bought just a regular hand cutting torch. Not a combo torch. When I was coming up those old welders called the, shipyard torches. But I will say for cutting plate they work great. As always great job.
I used to assemble a Victor combo torch head with the long tube and mixer from the old style Victor ST straight torches that have the visible tube nuts like the combo heads. They swap right on. Your torch repair outfit can make one (the idea is quite old) when you send one in for work or you can just buy an old ST and do it yourself. What that gets you is an even longer straight torch if you use that head and you can keep other heads too for a killer combo torch kit.
Of course everyone makes long straight torches and they're not expensive used (and basically last forever, I have 1920s torches that work fine and pass compressed air pressure tests WAY above running pressures).
Nice video
Where do I get those mini pipe stands at
I don't care who you are, that there stick o'graph for finding a contour is shure slick.👌
Austin Did you ever try that 90 degree pipe Saddle scribe I sent You quite some time ago? Anyone want pictures of the working model and results ? Good Video as usual
I have not used it yet.
Thank you
Nice work.
that's a great idea to make that contour tool out of cardboard and bamboo skewers! i will have to do that. i'm way too cheap to go buy one!
Did i see this truck in south tulsa yesterday?
Nice
Looks good Austin, are them holes in the bottom of the led boxes for dirt dobbers to get in and out. Lol
A suggestion, if I may
Put a 1"skirt around the bottom of the lead wells, individually.
This will help keep splashed mud and water out of the wells.
You could put individual pipe collars around each hole, but that would be overkill.
Hey Austin, love the videos are those shade five sunglasses you’re wearing?
Looking really spiffy Austin. Will those openings in the wells allow water to splash up into them if you are driving in the rain or go through puddles?
Question and it might be a dumb one, but you usually stick weld. Why did you go with a mig for this build?
Hi Austin, great video, as a connoisseur of the contour tool, i like to run some masking tape along the edge of the cardboard and the kebab sticks, just to stop the sticks moving afterwards, stops the paranoia of if its correct or not kicking in 👍👌
That’s a great idea! Thanks!
Very nice bed. If built this. It would like Homer Simpson built it.

The link in the description for your store is broken, it isn't hard to get there from the error page, just thought you should know.
Hopefully, it's fixed. If not, let me know which link you are wanting and I'll reply here with it.
It’s so weird how different the United States operate for welding, no reels instead they hide the leads. Interesting
Reels are popular
I see reels more often than not, but lots are homemade. This Is easy, makes the bed look real sharp, and keeps the leads out of the eyes of those with sticky fingers..
@@dylanpeterson6192 yah true. Just pointed it out cause here in Canada pretty much every single rig welder has cables out, wether it’s wraps or reels.
Never seen that cardboard and kebab stick trick.. that’s handy
Paper thin rust, 6013 or is there anything better. Wire feeds and tig are not an option.
6011
Obviously you’re doing this as a customer project, so it’s whatever they want… But I’ve often wondered why these welding beds need to be built so heavy? It seems like they could easily be fabricated out of heavy gauge aluminum and be about half the weight… With everything being made out of quarter inch steel plate it really adds a lot of weight to the truck that just robs your fuel mileage. You could still have a steel frame for Support if you’re worried about the weight of a heavy welder or something like that but as far as the skin you really don’t need heavy steel plate, even for the decking. It would also annoy me to have my filler neck sticking straight up out of the bed just as a personal annoyance when it could’ve been remoted over to the side like normal. If it had to stick up like that I would really want a piece of metal all the way around it as a shroud to keep something from shearing it off if I had a piece of material loaded up there and it shifted during transport.
Just my two cents worth.
use the contour board to help fit your next pancake hood on your forehead
Hey Austin, do you remember a welder by the name Bobby? I don't know his last name but from Louisiana. I'm at a job here in Amite City, LA, and he's here. He said he knows you!
Is it Bobby watly?
Who are y’all workin for down there?
@@arosswelding I believe so! He runs GMC rigs. We're doing a dig up and relay for Kinder Morgan and contracting through CCI
Heck ya! Tell him I said hi! Y’all be safe and have fun out there!
sadly with biden democrat's promotion of theft such security is needed for leads even tho racks or reel (back when democrats were not promoting theft) were so much more easy to use for those that actually work for a living
Less things on bed nicer looks.
Basic
People stole cable under every POTUS. Don't act like it just started. Nothing was or is safe on a jobsite even tools with etching and uglied up with paint so the pawn shops (well, most of them) might not buy it.
