  • In this video I make a custom roof rack from some scrap steel I got from my local scrap yard. With a little bit of time and about 30$ you can build a custom roof rack that’s just as good as ones that cost a boat load of cash

    I liked the tip with the grinder to make those short pipes fit enough to weld. Came out great, I wanted to put a rack on my topper but I didn't think it was strong enough. Can't wait to see the front one.

    Just saying... Guess you can tell which of your vids get the most views. I found your channel searching for homemade roof carriers. Sad to see no vids being posted for months. Thanks for this one. It helped.

  • @michaeldose2041
    @michaeldose2041 Před rokem +1

    Nice build. I am not sure why you wouldn't want it directly on top of the original roof rack though, that would literally double it's strength. As it is it's only as strong as the conduit clamps, which is to say not very strong.

    Hey Man great Build!!
    It would be really helpfull if you could tell us the dimensions of your build, and the exact tube caliber !! Was it a heavy roof rack the end ?
    Thank you very much

    • @brokenpoortradingco
      @brokenpoortradingco  Před 4 lety +2

      Thanks.. it was 3.5 ft x5.5 ft x 4 inch tall made of 3/4 inch emt conduit it’s pretty light weight but still plenty strong

    Seems like it would of been quicker to notch the small pipes instead of grinding them. But looks good either way.

  • @northseacowboy
    @northseacowboy Před 4 lety

    How did you bend the tubes without getting a kink in the inside radius.
    I made an engine cage for my vw beach buggy using galvanized conduit. Looks pretty getto. Also I wasn't sure if the welds were very strong with all the galvanized contamination, even though I flap wheeled most of the coating off, the welds still bubbled.
    Nice video 👍

    • @brokenpoortradingco
      @brokenpoortradingco  Před 4 lety +3

      I just used a conduit hand held bender it makes a pretty good bend. As far as welding it I didn’t have any problems with it bubbling up or anything.. it may not be the strongest thing in the world but it don’t have to hold much weight so it’ll probably be fine

    Nice build what year and model roof rack system did you install on your topper? Trying to find one for my F250 topper thanks

    • @brokenpoortradingco
      @brokenpoortradingco  Před 3 lety

      It was off a 1997 Tahoe.. it may be a little long for a f250 but it can be cut down easily

  • @denglertodd
    @denglertodd Před 3 lety

    very cool! is there any sag in the middle or that "chicken lathe" when you load it up? my concern would be the stress on the welds when theres a little weight in the middle of the rack.

    • @brokenpoortradingco
      @brokenpoortradingco  Před 3 lety

      A little sag if you put something heavy on it but is is still holding up fine
