    i dont know how many people noticed it, but being a fabricator i appreciate how you took the time to point all the seams of the steel the same direction

  • @abetoymachine
    @abetoymachine Před 8 lety +25

    This guy can make a video about paint drying or grass growing and i'd still watch it happily. Diresta is an artist and the world is his canvas. Keep doing what you do brother.

    @JimmyDiresta, I love the spray paint template trick. I never would have thougt about that but what a great way to mark out cut lines for multiple repeatable cuts. Thanks for the tip!

    @fasfan Před 8 lety

    It always amazes me how square and true his stuff comes out. I know he has a lot more experience than I do making things. But if I tried to make these... I have no doubt they'd be all wobbly and only 3 legs would be on the ground at any given time. lol.

    Hi, is the metal bandsaw the only way you cut steel? I'm looking at a new way to cut steel, found 3 types but unsure which way to go, metal bandsaw, TCT saw or TCT blade in compound miter saw? What are your thoughts?

    @thereeds0612 Před 6 lety

    Love the videos. I have watched all your video several time, including the episodes of Hammered. I know it sounds a little morbid, but I think you should build an ornate wood casket. I know, sounds crazy. I've kicked around the idea of doing for the simple fact to see if I could. My father owns a funeral home and I have seen the work that gets put into them. If I end up doing it and want to see the progress let me know. Still think you should try building a full sized one.

  • @AshleyK1ng
    @AshleyK1ng Před 8 lety

    Look at make with the new intro , like i said on Instagram id put a latch on to stop it from pushing out the legs. Then you get a full triangle = more strength.
    Well i got to the end of the video and the were on , great work .

    • @jimmydiresta
      @jimmydiresta Před 8 lety +9

    • @doubledarefan
      @doubledarefan Před 8 lety

      +jimmydiresta Now you just need to put another screw where the notch crosses the leg in the folded position, to keep the plate from swinging and snagging stuff, and to keep the sawhorses folded.
