I think we've all seen some horrendous "Farmer's Welds" over the years, but Tom's welding prowess with his fancy Lincoln welder can't be questioned... Top shelf welting from Tom, and he's so proud of his fabrications that he welds his name onto the beams as well as placing his initials in his concrete pours... :)
Lovely work Tom! If you will forgive me, a small bit of advice. When you knock something with your hand, use the edge of your fist and not the palm of your hand (like you at 14:16). All the nerves for your hand run in your palm and they damage easily. You will get the shakes quickly if you keep on using your palm. x
Hey Tom 👋 good to see you on your on channel I watch you to many times on Colin Furze channel. You are 1000 times better on the welding then me nice work keep it going 👍 💪
Great to see how the channel has grown in the last couple of years, proof that you can build and not just destroy like the old song. Having said that, I'm a bit worried about the old Mitsubishi there.
The comment about mag drills is so true. Even if you need to weld or clamp abit of plate to the job so the drill will stick. Amazing tools so easy to drill big holes. Can’t say I am a fan of only welding one side of the Perlin supports, you can easy peal abit of timber off
Hey Tom Lamb fans... please join me in my mission to get Mr Hewes to invite Tom to come and play with some tanks. I'm commenting on all Mr Hewes videos and posts until he responds. If you'd also love to see some of our favourite UA-camrs working together please join the campaign by commenting too.
Invest in a Welders jacket Tom. They're around the £30-£40 mark and save your fleeces from getting holes in. MIG/MAG is a so and so for lobbing large, hot BBs at your clothes.
I didn't think it'd be very strong without the wooden joists on the main I bar (H bar) like the others, but that little diagonal support is just the job. Nice one Tom!
love. as Colin needs a break from one vid. everyone who says this and that do it help. but NO bad feedback. get a job and try what u say. keep up it tom. framer showing a way forward aprt from solar panels etc he show with help improve maybe next time ur stuck behind them think they r working ur office job lift food everything u take for granted.
Nice welds Tom. flat and even, and you can see that they have good penetration. The plates you welded to the RSJs towards the end of the video that you only welded one side. Do they support wood or steel beams? If wood, it would be super easy to sand a chamfer to clear the bead if you had welded both sides. I would worry about that joint if the bead is going to be on the under side of the bracket because there is no triangulation of the joint, and the bead can hinge down. If the beam those plates support is nice and tight to the uprights, then those joints will have a shear force rather than the more worrying bending force of course. You have always impressed with your engineering skills, so I know you have it handled.
Those plates are to attach the purlins to the roof beams. The timber will be on the uphill side of the plate, with a bolt through the hole to hold it in place. As the slope of the roof is only 10°, the plates and timber purlins will only be off vertical by that 10°, and then the roof sheets will brace all the purlins together once they're attached. So while you're perfectly correct about how Tom could weld both sides of the plate and still fit the timber nice and tight, it's not necessary in this instance.
The shortest 16 mins of the week. I could watch these all day....like I've done for the past 2 days. Not that I ever will but I know more about welding now than I ever did. Is there a link for the Hats?
Another brilliant video Tom thanks for taking the time to put it togeather. Which do you prefer Mig or Stick welding and what made you decide to change to farming ?
Looking good. For the triangular gussets would it not be as simple to get a few lengths of h iron and just nip them diagonally with the plasma, only need to weld the one side that way
Long time watcher first time commenting. You will be better to grind the mill scale off that steel before welding and buff some more paint off that station, you can get away with it when stick welding but not so clever with a mig. Keep the good videos coming Tam
Nice job Tom! Those drill bits are just awesome. Is this shed your own design? Be interested to know what the wind and snow loads would be on something that sturdy.
Thanks for the infos.when setting your coulmns do you keep a gap btween the coulmn and rafter end plate for easy erection im working on a build but i cant get an answer thanks
do you take the terminals of the battery on the jcb when your welding on the tines. I was always told you'd fry the computer from the voltage when welding.
@5:23 is that the shed you're copying? Because that's got web stiffeners in the column and if everything else is equal (size of steel, span, wind load) might be a bit vulnerable to local buckling
No bullcrap music, cheesy intros - Pure and excellent watch. My toilet breaks have halved !
Tom Lamb, improving Britain's economy 1 video at a time
You are getting on well Tom. I like the laid back approach when you are welding. The one hand in the pocket leaning against the beam welding away 😂
Thanks 👍
Across the pond we say Ground, not Earth. Took me a second to understand and i loved it!
Bath not tub

banging video, who doesn't love a cracking bit of welding. You are now a permanent weekly watch, love the channel Tom 👍
Considering the number YT videos I watch of blokes welding, this is one of the few that shows the view from inside the welding mask. Cool shot.

Thanks for the tip!
To quote some other farmers ..... "Proper Job" - Well done Tom, as already said a few times, excellent no BS content !!
Thanks

Don’t worry
Proper job mate. 👍
Thanks for the support
@@Tomlamb980 Tom mate, You absolutely deserve every bit, Your content is brilliant, and your presentation is spot on, I take my hat off to you 🙂👍
"Wood would sit on the piss" 🤣😅
Hello Tom your doing a super job on welding
Thanks 👍

On it
If you are going playing with tanks Tom don’t forget to bring me with you 😂
Nice welding Tom.👍
Gotta love one handed farm welding 🐄 ❤️
The best!
Invest in a Welders jacket Tom. They're around the £30-£40 mark and save your fleeces from getting holes in. MIG/MAG is a so and so for lobbing large, hot BBs at your clothes.
Great video Tom nice welds, we call it Lightening Glue.
Beautifully edited too Cheers from the Westcountry.
Another great vid all work no bullshit or music just a guy doing his thing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I didn't think it'd be very strong without the wooden joists on the main I bar (H bar) like the others, but that little diagonal support is just the job. Nice one Tom!
Brill videos and progress
Some thicc boi welds. Looking good Tom!
Nice work Mr.Lamb!
Barn find Mitsubishi 3000GT video next 😋
Beautiful welding! Now I know who’s been teaching Colin to weld!!
You got that right!
Your humour, character and skill make a great UA-cam channel.
Great video Tom and a nice bit of work as always 👏👏👍👍
great video thanks
Top job Tom
Like the Tom tag 🤠
love. as Colin needs a break from one vid. everyone who says this and that do it help. but NO bad feedback. get a job and try what u say. keep up it tom. framer showing a way forward aprt from solar panels etc he show with help improve maybe next time ur stuck behind them think they r working ur office job lift food everything u take for granted.
Looking good Tom, good bit of welding.
Fair impressed that you can weld and plasma cut whilst filming. Great series of videos.
It’s harder than it looks
Nice job Tom.
Thanks 👍
You’re no Picasso Tom 😂😂
Lovely job. thanks for letting us see what you're doing.
Looking good. Great work and no nonsense techniques. Good welding, too. That LW is a beast!
Thanks 👍
We call a welder here in Leicestershire an electric glue pot, keep the good work up
Loving the videos Tom, keep up the great work! Those mag drills make light work of some pain in the ass stuff.
Loving your content young man.
WeldCam (tm) - Nice idea Tom 👍
Not bad welding Tom❤
Quality viewing sir!! Looking forward to the next un!

Just found your channel.Good content and no bullshit talk

Minted!!
Another brilliant video Tom thanks for taking the time to put it togeather. Which do you prefer Mig or Stick welding and what made you decide to change to farming ?
Mig is cleaner I’ve always been farming
Magnets might bar with Colin!!!!
Get some welding gloves, I now use tig ones, they don't last as long but they're more tactile than regular welding ones
Good job
Looking good. For the triangular gussets would it not be as simple to get a few lengths of h iron and just nip them diagonally with the plasma, only need to weld the one side that way
Don’t think they would be deep enough and would be more expensive
Well done mate :). How to check if the welding penetrate well when having thick steel?
0:07 great content again
An amazing video tom
Some beautiful fillets there. Perfect welds. What current are you pulling?
About 300 amps
i'v never used a mag dill. but i'm sold on the bit of kit. just got to work out how to justify getting one. could be tricky. :)
What kind of voltage and wire size are you using for that what looks like 1/2 inch plate? Truly am loving the videos Tom! Keep them coming.
Great video really enjoying the content . Tom what's with the rubber gloves 😂😂 . Keep it up great content 👌
Just easy to wear
Long time watcher first time commenting. You will be better to grind the mill scale off that steel before welding and buff some more paint off that station, you can get away with it when stick welding but not so clever with a mig. Keep the good videos coming Tam
Cool, thanks
Nice job Tom! Those drill bits are just awesome. Is this shed your own design? Be interested to know what the wind and snow loads would be on something that sturdy.
Not my design
If you find time in your busy life you may be interested in the welder Faber believing somewhere up in your area of the country
Is that your Mitsubishi GTO / 3000GT in the background? Does it run?
Not mine
Do you think you could knock out a couple of roofs for Tom Prmberton. He has two clamps that desperately need roofs
Message him for a collaboration
@13.00 is that gusset on the top side of the steel? Angle looks off
Hi Tom, what is that drill, milling bit called in your mag drill ? I've never seen one with a centre before
Roto broach drill bit
They're are technically called annular cutters, and are probably known by other names as well.
Thanks for the infos.when setting your coulmns do you keep a gap btween the coulmn and rafter end plate for easy erection im working on a build but i cant get an answer thanks
Not usually
Mate. Your hats on backwards. 😂
do you take the terminals of the battery on the jcb when your welding on the tines. I was always told you'd fry the computer from the voltage when welding.
No but I know it happens
Any red oxide paint inside the drilled out holes or no?
I think there was a bit of
Any advantage to grinding the red oxide off before you weld it?
Not really
@5:23 is that the shed you're copying? Because that's got web stiffeners in the column and if everything else is equal (size of steel, span, wind load) might be a bit vulnerable to local buckling
Yes it is but this bit doesn’t need web stiffeners as it’s not having and concrete walls bolted to them
What plasma cutter you using Tom .
Thermal dynamics
Did you have to disconnect the battery on the jcb?
Na didn’t bother
Mag drill are ok but not if you get a power cut
Some newer ones actually have a backup for the magnet. If it’s up in the air then safety strap is easy. Seriously rarely happens
Orange welding gloves ? 😂
New fashion
.
Nice mig welds sir.
