    Wow, this is exactly what I want to build behind my house to cover an "outdoor" gym area so that my equipment is protected from rain. I love the minimal look of the metal structure. This is exactly what want to do where one side has a higher pitch than the other but stands alone (not attached to the house). Great work!

    What thickness and size of plexiglass roof? And what about resistance to weather conditions?

    hi, what size posts and beams are those? and what wall thickness. planing on similar build but having trouble deciding on wall thickness to prevent sagging

      Looks like 1/8" wall thickness. You could probably get away with 1/16". I have a build video for a 10' x 12' steel gazebo on my channel where I used tubing of both wall thicknesses.

    How are you keeping it secure to the metal ?

    The plexi plastic sheeting appeared all very rushed I'd have liked to see how you secured the last sheet put up..?

    Awesome. Could you give me the specs of the welding machine? I was looking into that but for aluminum, you need argon, correct? TY in advance.

    • @Worldsbestname
      @Worldsbestname 3 роки тому

      That’s likely steel not aluminium?

    • @grippimatt
      @grippimatt 3 роки тому

      That's a basic arc welder that he's using to stick weld. For aluminum you'll need either a MIG welder with a bottle of argon gas or a TIG welder with a bottle of argon. Welding aluminum is tricky, you'll want to use steel if you don't know much about welding. I'd MIG weld it instead of stick welding. It's cleaner and easier. I have a build video on my channel for a 10' x 12' steel gazebo that's all TIG welded.

    As a welder, they had to have hired the most unskilled welder in existence. Yeah just weld right over slag covered welds for slag inclusions so the welds break. Also, you’re playing Russian roulette using a cut off wheel as your only source of cutting material. Get a real saw, and a real welder to do this.

      He may not have a saw in his country. This is a DYI project.

      It’s cringy to watch.
