Worker DIY

The stand is very helpful during plasma cutting, you can cut small and large elements, thanks to the electric movement the cutting is much more accurate and faster than manual cutting. The mechanism is screwed, so it can be removed from the base at any time, so you can use the base itself for manual cutting, electrically powered plasma track

I used a 2.5HP chainsaw. The saw, despite its low power, copes well with cutting steel, and thanks to its mobility, we can cut wherever there is a limitation with access to electricity. To reduce the spindle rotation, I used gears with a diameter of 40 mm and 55 mm. The maximum disc diameter that can be used is 305mm

I decided to build a completely mobile washer that would be powered by an internal combustion engine and would have tanks, so I would not have to connect the water supply every time. The washer turned out to be a very mobile machine, I washed two heavily soiled cars on one tank, including a large one, and about 1/4 of the water tank remained. The pressure washer is powerful and can be regulated by the speed of the internal combustion engine I used biodegradable cleaners for washing the car, it does not harm the environment and plants

The Metal Band saw works very well, cutting is fast and precise, you can cut at any angle. I also planned to do a tape cooling system but ran out of time, but despite the lack of cooling the tape does not heat up and the cutting tape does not dull. To build the band saw I used a vice that I built in one of my earlier videos.

Thanks to the use of hydraulic cylinder the vice is very and strong, the work is much faster and more comfortable. I powered the vise with a hydraulic pump driven by compressed air. Music: 1.

This is my first lathe, it is fully operational, no play, the bed is in very good condition. The lathe is almost 70 years old, so it already looked very bad, the previous owner took care of the machine so I did not have to replace the bearings, or correct the geometry of the machine components.

The crane is very versatile and has many construction settings to make work easier. I decided to use an electric winch with a lifting capacity of 3000LBS/1360kg as a drive. Thanks to the wireless remote control attached to the winch, the crane can be conveniently controlled from various distances. To power the crane I used three 12v 18AH AGM batteries each, which I connected in parallel.

The rotary table is powered by an electric motor from the mobility scooter, the tilt of the table is driven by the wiper motor from the Audi A8 B4. I powered the engines with a 24v / 12v 16.7A two channel power supply, I used a 40A voltage regulator to set the rotation speed of the table top. The table top has a diameter of 800 mm and a thickness of 8 mm, thanks to which the table's capabilities are very large, the table can be used as a welding positioner, as an assembly table or a plasma cutting table, Repair work can be done on the table, and thanks to the electrically adjustable table top, the work is less strenuous.

I plan to build a milling machine before I have all the parts to build, I decided to build a cross table. I built a table with bearings and linear shafts so the whole thing works very lightly. Such a table does not have to be used only for a milling machine, but can also use a table drill, making drilling several holes much easier and more precise.

The machine cuts steel very quickly, the cutting is precise. A circular saw for cutting metal has a torsion arm, so we can cut metal elements at any angle. The vice improves the rigidity of the assembled parts, and the design can be improved so that the vice is also adjustable. I built a vise in the previous video. The whole structure is mobile and easy to carry. Disc diameter 355 mm, discs can be sharpened, 1.5kw motor, pulley ratio 1: 1.

I am in the process of building a circular saw a cutting metal. I divided the construction process into two parts. In the first video you will see the construction of a vice, in the second you will see the construction of circular saw cutting metal The vice does not have to be designed for a metal cutting machine, but it can also become a universal workshop vice that allows you to quickly clamp your workpiece in it.

This is the second magnetic drill I've built. In this project, I used three magnetic door lock to build electromagnet. Each magnetic door lock has a maximum pull of 180kg, giving o total of 540kg. I used a laptop power supply, I also tried to connect the magnetic door lock to a 12v 3A power supply, but on this power supply to heat up. The electromagnet is really strong, strong to drill in any position without worrying about the drill falling. In this project i also decided to build another feed mechanism, which is much more stable and no backlash.

I used the materials I had in the workshop to build the wheelbarrow. I bought a used hydrostatic gearbox and a motor, the steering axle is removed from a damaged wheelchair. The transmission comes from lawn mower tractor, and in my opinion it is the best base for building such a vehicle, it does not need a clutch, has a differential and a brake, everything results in much simpler construction. The engine also comes from a smaller mower only, it is a model honda gxv 140, it is sufficient to drive wheelbarrows, it does not lack power in different conditions. The construction was not without the problems and mistakes I made. The biggest mistake was the permanent welding of the steering axle, which made it completely impossible to drive on uneven terrain, every hole into which the rear wheel fell caused the front wheel to break away from the ground, because the box has a differential wheelbarrow stopped driving, I corrected the mistake by screwing the steering axle to the rear wheel hub from the Ford mondeo as you can see in the video. He's satisfied with the final result, but he's still not satisfied because I didn't make the automatic subversion that I had planned.

The grill was built of scrap metal, there was quite a lot of work on it, but the end result seems to be satisfactory :) The film was shot before the publication of previous films.

Winteris coming up and there's no heating in my workshop. Unfortunately my workshop is tin so isn't not easy to warmitup, so i decided to build a blow furnace. My project has proven to be very efecient, and ever too strong for my workshop.

In a table drilling machine, I was often annoyed by the worktop, which limited the drilling of larger parts and the continuous height adjustment. In order to eliminate this problem, I bulit a table with an electrically adjustable worktop and bulit a cooling system during drilling.

Thanks to the magnetic clamp the vice makes work much easier and faster. The electromagnet is strong and can withstand the overloads that occur during with ease. For the construction I used two electromagnets from the comopressor of a car air-conditioning system, a make the electromagnets more powerful I had to grind down a out one milimetra of the top surface of the electromagnets. I connected them in parallel and supplied them with 12 V DC.

I fought many times with sheet metal bending, and finally I decided to build a metal bender, the construction is simple and effective. It can easily bend even 2mm sheets steel.

I always wanted to have a mobile air compressor that would not be limited by the length of the power cable, I decided to build a compressor that would be driven by an internal combustion engine. I used a 160cc motor, 220l/min pump. The motor stops powering the air pump when the required air pressure is reached, so that the compressor does not have to be switched on continuously, the motor automatically starts powering the air pump when the pressure drops.

I am planning few projects where I will need such a corner welding clamp, instead of buying a new one I decided to build it and record a movie soon :)

I know that there are a lot of videos about building a belt grinder, but looking at the possibilities and applications of such a grinder, I couldn't resist to build it, especially that most of the materials I already had. The rollers and drive wheel I used came from the pallet truck.

My old vice isn't work as good as it should be so I decided to make new one. I took materials from the scrapyard. The jack has capacity about 5 tonnes. I suppose that it hasn't so much capacity but it should be sufficient for my needs. The whole vise weighs about 40 kg/90lbs. If you have a question to me about this vice, just let me know in the comment section.

Lately I've been struggling with TIG welding training, so that learning in different welding positions would be more efficient, I decided to build a stand where I can collect the pieces to be welded. The material I used to make the stand came from scrap metal.

The materials I use come from scrap metal, linear bearings and feed rollers purchased on the allegro. The stand is massive and certainly will be very helpful when cutting wider elements.

Guide for cutting wide elements I want to show you the guides for an angle grinder that allows you to cut wide steel. In the basic version, I use it for an angle grinder, but it can be used for various tools, eg Plasma, circular saw.
