I'm 99.9%sure that the handles are the the only reason those chipping hammers are still in production. The hammer part couldn't chip the skin off custard.
Good for you Brad, keep up the hard work. I’ve been a welder for 45 years. I now have my own shop where I work at home and I build pits. I also built my own smoke shack/saloon where I do a lot of my cooking would love to send you a picture but I’m not sure how to do that.
Man your videos get my head turning with ideas. My uncle and I are about to open up a shop to pump out some pits and direct flame coolers. Keep up the hard work your videos keep getting better!
I know this is an older video and I'm about 2 years late but vinegar works great at removing mill scale. Overnight soak in it will dissolve all of the mill scale and you can get a few uses out of the vinegar before it slows down. I used 6% strength.
@@chilant Just because you want to roll them as is traditional, doesn't mean everyone has to do what you do. Everyone will make it their own and that's cool.
I found you through Glen And Friends Cooking and think you are amazing and believe you should contract the tortilla Press & sell Millions. I had a El Paso Quesadilla Maker which is heated and it made that same sound when it was pushed down. Without heat it is hard to make a thin tortilla. I live in NYC so I don't have a shop but am considering going to a welder to put the pieces together although
I'm a sheet metal manufacturer in Michigan. Our core is laser cutting and bending. Hit me up if you want to talk about us helping you manufacturer you stuff! Love what you do!
Best bbq channel on UA-cam hands down. I get excited every time you post and I’ve successfully watched every single episode you’ve dropped. Also a supporter on Patreon. 🤙
Right on buddy !!! Rackin up them followers!! Don’t change a thing, your videos/cooks/builds are epic! Love this freakin channel. Keep up the great work Bradillac 👍👍 #bootsnakeforeverforeversnakeboot
Hey man I'm a rookie welder so am always looking for information about everything. One thing I saw a welder doing when using flux core wire he took the gas nozzle/ tip off because you don't need it when there is no gas. I think it stops grounding the tip accidentally but I would think that would be hard to do anyway. I am welding flux core wire now much easier. Don't know if this is correct but hey, seems to be good. Love your videos mate. Hi from NZ
I'm from Brazil, have been following you since you had about 5k followers, and I always check the counting every time you post a video. Super glad you've made to the 20k mark. Pretty soon 100k is going to be there. Best bbq channel out there.
Hi from Australia!!! Enjoy your channel very much! I love the energy and enthusiasm you put in the video. The food and equipment that you produce are very inspiring also. Thank you!!
Would that setup work for corn tortillas as well? Also, would a very slight gap be appropriate? Like 1/32”? Just metal on metal would make it slightly thinner on the back. I would think so anyway.
Awesome videos and Grinding mill scale sucks, take it From a Toolmaker/ Fabricator. May I suggest using muriatic acid to strip the mill scale. Its quick and easy. You can get it in a hardware store and dilute with water in a spray bottle, NOTE always add the acid to the water not water to acid, so fill the bottle with water first then add the acid. Use a plastic pan outside and spray on the surface, it will foam up when working on the scale then rinse in a bucket of water. Or if you order P&O steel, (pickled and oiled) its already done for a few bucks more. Another option is vinegar but I heard it takes a while but have not tried it, you may want to soak some for a few days to see of it works. Smoke-On
@@ChudsBbq Yeah definitely do it outside! It is well worth asking your steel supplier about P&O, the time savings will more than make up the difference on cost.
Your Seriously blessed to do what you love....I cant wait to get there one day and to me your channel is one of the best out there....!! love the Comical Expressions as well and your little buddy ( dog ) I bet loves your bbq...✌✌
This is perfect timing. I've been looking for a press. I'm going to build this one. Something very satisfying about building useful cooking utensils. Thanks for the tips!
Just made a 9x9 version of this and you were right. Grinding that mill scale off was the worst part of this build. P.S. your welds look 1,000 times better than mine! Lol
Should have put in a spacer before attaching the hinge... You have zero clearance for dough at the hinge end... Giving it a few millimeters would allow for larger tortillas...
Just made one and handy tip : soak the plate steel in concentrated cleaning vinegar over night. The mill scale wipes off with a sponge. No grinding needed, saves disks and time.
I had a tortillas press made here in Philippines. Bought a mixer also. I have a problem maybe someone can help. 1st using the mixer we use a lot more water in our dough to keep it moist, we use heat on our press then take the tortillas to grill to finish cooking but they are coming out tuff. Why?
We just made one of these and getting the temperature right is challenging. The bottom gets so much hotter than the top. Do you have some instruction or advice on this? And how hot do you have it when you use it?
12 people have gluten allergies and are bitter about it. I just found your channel today and I have enjoyed it tremendously. Your videos are well produced, captivating and offer a lot of value. Thanks for what you are doing. Cheers.
Nice, straightforward build, but I did cringe a little when you started removing the mill scale manually. I felt bad for you! Not sure if it is already in the comments, but using a 50 percent muriatic acid to water ratio, soaking for an hour in a plastic tub, then rinsed works wonders. Cheers!
OI Brad you know if you soak those plates in white vinegar over night that mill scale will wipe straight off right ? look m8 im a blacksmith ( if you mention fugged in fire im coming to get yu ! ) mill scale is fe204 or 302 i forget (one is mill scale one is rust) it dissolves in vinegar turns black and wipes straight off will save you $2 a time on flap discs .... you sure you dont need some advice i been welding for 35 years?? also a gas welder will stop the need for splatter and oxides clean up saving you 1 min per weld sounds like nothing but your prob making 200 welds on a large chud box ? i could come make them 2 hours and $30+ cheaper per item ....
Thanks for the fire management callout! I was waiting on that! Im also coming to Leroy and Lewis in February! Coming from Chattanooga TN! Looking forward to it!
not sure if im to late you are so helpfull in the foodie world i would love to help in the fab part in any way i can i have been in fab for 37 years i will help you from my garrage as well
8.30 into this video - ua-cam.com/video/YytF06_1bxs/v-deo.html he shows the table. It’s a pretty cool but simple looking construction. You should be able to work it out from that walk around.
@@funfunstuie Thank you! I couldn’t remember which video he showed it in. Really curious about the cutting board. Did he make it or find one the right size?
G’day mate ,from down under , I would like to say a big thank you for your idea ! A friend I sold recently one of my Camping Rocket Stoves ,has seen your video and ask me to replicate one for him ,which I did ! I guess any Aussies who like one of your Tortillas Press should contact me ! Again thank you very much ,great work 👍🍺🍺 Regards George !
hey can you ship a whole BBQ Chud hog to South Africa? I saw hog in the pitbox. Love the tortilla press. Been trying to figure one out as I was re-watching Valentina's tex mex tortilla press video on Eater. Making this build next week! Gracias! Oh get metric man, wtf is 3/16?!
here in east Texas those spring handles cost $1.50 at Matheson. you can get a 20' rod of round stock for about 11 bucks. I keep hearing people talk about repurposing those hammers but really its a waste of money. also check with your local steel supplier most of them sell pre-built spring handles ready to weld on for around 3 bucks.
I had the garage before the old lady… So I’m grandfathered in... that’s my kind of 🤔 thinking... for those of you who aren’t grandfathered in... just do it… Give her a room in the house that she can do anything with… Not a problem
I just finished watching Moana with my youngest son and I caught a glimpse of it on the tv in the background. Weird how timing works sometimes. And then you sang the Moana song haha
Bradley, if you soak your steel plates in vinegar for a couple of days before you build these, that millscale will wipe right off and save you a bunch of time.
you can remove mill scale with muriatic acid. The green stuff for painters. Just brush/spray it on then flush it with water and hit it with scotch bright
I had a tortilla press made locally. Your video is really good so all I had to do was email and pay. The only thing I found was that after seasoning everything tasted like steel. Does that go away after a while?
Great gift for the wife 👍 'Say babe after you finish with my sandwich make me a tortilla wrap' 😁
My tortilla press came in the mail today. It looks amazing. Thank you so much. Well-done
Came for the first smoker build.... stayed for the killer bbq.
Congrats on the 20k. You'll be at 100k in no time
I'm 99.9%sure that the handles are the the only reason those chipping hammers are still in production. The hammer part couldn't chip the skin off custard.
You don't need much to get slag off of a weld.
Lmao never had an issue myself
Good for you Brad, keep up the hard work. I’ve been a welder for 45 years.
I now have my own shop where I work at home and I build pits. I also built my own smoke shack/saloon where I do a lot of my cooking would love to send you a picture but I’m not sure how to do that.
This wouldn’t rust? This is amazing!!! Great video!

Excelente tortilla press
Saludos. desde Monterrey mx
Im here for the entertainment and to call a win over the dude being rude about us wanting to see how you made the tortilla press.
Congrats on 20k. I love that you are bringing the restaurant style cooking to the backyard!
every video I'm going "welcome back toOOOOOOOOOOOOo Chud's BBQ"
I know this is an older video and I'm about 2 years late but vinegar works great at removing mill scale. Overnight soak in it will dissolve all of the mill scale and you can get a few uses out of the vinegar before it slows down. I used 6% strength.
i tig weld all my stuff, so this is exactly how i do it
Yep. Silicone carbide discs work really well too.
This guy deserve the sub. This is gem.
A hot tortilla press changed my tortilla game!
Press corn tortillas and roll the flour tortillas . Or you know what just fucking press pizza dough , biscuit dough or maybe even rolls . Glen u fuck.
@@chilant wtf that was rude
@@leevipenniman why make a dish to only half ass the recipe?
@@chilant Just because you want to roll them as is traditional, doesn't mean everyone has to do what you do. Everyone will make it their own and that's cool.
Just a tip if you don’t already know, you can soak your steel in vinegar overnight and the mil scale will just wipe off
You sir, is be my spirit animal 🤙🏼
may be worth looking at submerging the plates in vinegar for a day to take off the scale. Works wonders and is food safe

Please do some welding tutorials too! That would be an awesome addition! I would love to start dabbling in welding but I don’t know where to start.
Check out Jody on welding tips and tricks here on YT. Plenty of content and he’s an expert.

Distilled vinegar works great removing Mill scale
Hi from Australia!!! Enjoy your channel very much! I love the energy and enthusiasm you put in the video. The food and equipment that you produce are very inspiring also. Thank you!!
Would like to see your take on beef stock
Would that setup work for corn tortillas as well? Also, would a very slight gap be appropriate? Like 1/32”? Just metal on metal would make it slightly thinner on the back. I would think so anyway.

Yeah I’ve tried muriatic acid before, the fumes rusted every piece of metal in my shop haha, I’ll try diluting it next time

I live in Austin can I pick one up
If you put the tortilla towards the back of the press it gets way bigger can you make one and ship?
As always great video. The wait list is a sign that your producing quality products. Keep up the great vidoes and smokers.

Killer looking products definately need one of these presses in my backyard arsenal. Keep up the good work.
Good stuff
have you considered Vinegar Submersion? waaaay cheaper than flap and stripper discs...
Try bunker branding for you shirts, keep it in TX.

If you get pickled & oiled steel plates instead of cold rolled you will save yourself time and money producing them.

what is the thickness of the plate steel?? Thank you
Very cool! Very creative! Man you da BOMB!
how thick are the top and bottom plates ?
Good home made sausage can improve your quality of life. Plus beer, home brewed beer, we can't forget that.
Where can I get a table top burner like yours?

Ordered tortilla press. Thanks! How bout a Christmas prime rib recipe?
Is this tortillia press design copyrighted? Or free for all? My niece is a welder and maybe could be a subcontractor for you in Minnesota.
Bradley, if you soak your steel plates in vinegar for a couple of days before you build these, that millscale will wipe right off and save you a bunch of time.
Can you just fab my whole outdoor kitchen? Nice looking equipment!

Pastrami Brisket next please 🙏
Do you know that mill scale can be removed with an overnight soak in vinegar? I’ve never done but others have said it works
this is dope....you could also soak the whole thing in vinegar overnight to eat off the mill scale
Any tips on getting the tortilla thin?
