I would fab up a headache rack to protect the back window. Window replacements are not cheap. Granted, everything seems to be secured down good. However, you can never be too safe.
When he said he carries 3 rod boxes and a bottle jack I thought he said a bottle of Jack haha I was like yeah rock on!!
haha I am sure there are some guys with a stash of Jack in their truck. - Kayla
I would like to se someone do a pipe line TV show like Ice Road but all welding
I want to get into pipeline welding but I have a few questions and it would be great if you could answer them.
1. Why do you have to supply your own rig
2. Is it better to be in a union
3. Why do pipeline welders make so much
4. Is there a ketch to the job or are you getting paid for your skill
5. Is there a lot of work out there in pipeline welding
6. Is it true, do some companies pay a bonus if the weld passes x-ray
7. If I have all my certifications, will I still start as a helper or as long as I have a rig can I start as a welder
8. What do I do if I get out of school with all my certifications and I don't have a rig. Will a company supply one or will I have to be a helper until I buy a rig.
Thanks. Again
Great purpose built rig. Would love to see a more in depth video on tools and the bed itself, also maybe a video talking about ways to find a helper positions.
Thank you for the suggestions on videos. - Kayla
I've only just started learning how to weld and only have a small everlast welder but one day I want to build out a rig like yours. Great work.
Cool beans brother, ya done a great job, and that's the most I ever heard ya talk son lol
IAMSCOTLANDFOREVER
Man i think a good video would be how to lay out a branch from start to finish. I think alot of people would enjoy that as well. Have a blessed day.
We have had a couple people interested in that before. We plan to make some more pipeline videos this year and will add that to the list of possibilities. Thank you for the request. Hope you have a wonderful day also. God bless. - Kayla
yeah that would be a very interesting video to watch i agree.
when you said bottle jack at first I swore you said a bottle of Jack lol
I am sure there more than a few rig tucks equipped with that too. lol
That magnet trick to get the rods blew my mind! Great rig man.
Beautiful set up! Makes me just wanna go to work looking at it!
Tyler Alexander
Lol I know what you mean. Thanks.
This is great I have a flatbed dually I'd love to do something very similar to. Pipeline welding is definitely my dream job.
Adam Campbell
Thanks man! That’s great! Keep up the hard work. You’ll get there.
I don't know anything about welding but this video was very interesting. Maybe because I love trucks 👍🏽
Probably so. A cool truck is a cool truck - right?
Neither of us are super hip on welding rig trucks but we both really enjoyed this! I really liked the intro! Austin is super talented making that bed himself I can dig it!!! Beto loves the custom bed as well. It is sleek an organized it doesn't look like a million things are going on when really it looks like that's what it could be lol
It could be a mess for sure. He did a great job with this bed. I love it more than the last, but he already has ideas for another so I am sure he will be at it again eventually.
Austin and Kayla ,
It would be interesting if he started a custom bed building business and made that his money maker.
Great video trying to get started in my own Mobil rig and this helped me get a lot of ideas thank you !
Glad it helped. Wishing you well.
I'm glade ya'll finally got out to show off the rig. It was a great video. I would agree with maxi though. There isn't to many videos on youtube of experienced guys laying out branches. I myself will be practicing laying them out starting next month. maybe we talk austin into doing a short video on dos and don't when laying out a branch. These is food for thought. Anyway you guys stay safe out there god bless.
We have added that to the list of possible videos. Thank you for the suggestion and for watching. God bless. - Kayla
Corey Smith look up 12" branch lay out. A buddy of mine Has one on CZcams. It's actually very good and informative. The Blue Book tells How to do it.
Nice rig man. I work in the oil fields in New Mexico and Texas so I see a lot of welding rigs. Yours is nicely set up.
Lon Del
Thank you. Be safe out there.
You keep saying it's a work truck but it's the cleanest I have ever seen.
Great video dude, nice set up. We are going to customize an old Ford flat bed at my company and I have some good ideas for tuck away storage now .
Vikingz Beard
Thanks. I’m glad you were able to get some ideas from it. Let me know if you have any questions.
Vikingz Beard
Thanks. I’m glad you were able to get some ideas from it. Let me know if you have any questions.
It’s nice seeing another welder from the ole home land posting information videos
I had no idea how much stuff you had back there! So custom and organized-you have mad skills. How do you keep the items secure back there from theft?
Some things are locked and some things you just hope people will do the right thing. We have had things stolen before and it just means replacing it because there is no real good way to lock it up. Not fun, but just the way it is. Thank you for watching. - Kayla
nice set up.... can't beat the dodge Cummins setup
Ya no doubt
Austin and Kayla can you explain why most welders own cummins trucks rather than duramax's or 350s? Im going to college in 3 weeks to learn how to weld so i want to learn everything i can to be a good welder and make that money!
Omar Rojas reliability, can't make money if you can't get to work
Its good that you did something to prevent rust i see a lot of guys that build their beds but dont paint them or anything
That was amazing. Thank you for sharing. I learned so much.
Thanks for watching Mary. Glad we could teach you something new today. :) - Kayla
Yea I have a question show us how to build it “the bed”
Nice craftsmanship on the truck bed.
wailnshred
Thanks
great vid. maybe a vid about your prior welding career and how to get on the pipe line welding for people in school? thanks!!!!!
Great suggestion. We will add that to our list of video ideas. Thank you. Take care. - Kayla
This would be very helpful, I'm about to be going to school for a cert and would love to know how to get in the pipeline side of things, i used to be an NDT level 2
12:12 I thought you said "a bottle of jack" it was funny. Good video man.
Brotha you have a clean rig. I work for SWAT and run shutdowns. Sometimes I wish I would have became a row dog but I don't know anyone on, so it would have been hard. Maybe one day
Hey I live in Oklahoma too. I just got my first welding job yesterday.
We love it when other Okies find us. Congratulations on your job. That is awesome!
As far as your YETI, keep the drain cracked to drain water. The forward and backward movement of your truck jostles the ice around, it breaks down, and then it melts easier, which in turn, your ice is jostling around in water. BTW, good job on the video.
Also compliment you on design and work!! Awesome!!
One dope rig ya got
I hope to have one in the near future.
You have some really intelligent brain cells working there. Good work, and thanks for the awesome video.
frigginpos
You bet. Thanks for watching.
Practical and well thought out rig! Well done!
Henchman67
Thanks
Nice rig brother. Stay safe
Nice vid man plus I see you stay in claysville ive been in the patch for about 9 years. Happy to see the work picking up! Anyway be safe out there and rock on!
Yess please post a video on the details of your bed or if I just haven't found it please link it!!!
Those Carhartt vests are the shit for layering !
man thats a awesome rig man. beautiful!!😍
Thank you.
For the yeti make sure you close the latches when holding ice it will make a big difference.
Wow...impressive. I miss my Dodge 3500 megacab........
I feel like I seen this truck awhile back here in Indiana , there was a few of them and they all had a pretty nice set up
Awesome video Austin. I have been wanting to see the rig. Nice job.
Cool truck guys!
Thanks, Brian. Glad you found us!
Cool video! Your not to far away it looks like. I'm in WV, looks like work is gonna be picking up after a slow 2016.
Not far at all and we think (and hope) so too. We are ready!
Can you make a in depth video on how you actually made your bed? I'd like to put a bed similar to this on my 09 dodge.
We are going to do some more videos on specifics on this bed but to actually show how he made it may have to wait until he builds another one. Thank you for the suggestion. We will add it to our list. - Kayla
That would be great. I was thinking the same thing. A friend of mine wants me to make him a bed. I’m carpenter by trade but live welding. I would love to do it but it might be a little to ambush for me.
Great video, Big Daddy enjoyed very much ! Have a great day...
Nice setup... like the look and functionality!
Thanks
What type of fifth wheel hitch do u use and how do u set it up back there
How does a helper practice welding during off time? Do helpers have their own rigs?
thanks Austin great video.
Thank you for watching!
I'm not a pipe welder but I love seeing purpose built trucks.
Glad you found us. We have a lot of non welders and pipeliners that hang out with us here on YT. Welcome!
bad ass rig dude, cant wait to have one of my own.
You do great work.i like watching your videos
awesome rigs! I'm welder myself. always want buy rig like this one. love Diesel! nice work with video! and thanks for sharing. u guys are awesome! do more video with pipeline too. love ur RV living! looking in to 5th wheel right now. first time with it. been grew up with travel trailer that my parents owns. hear 5th wheel is bit better and easy to handle? true? so keep up with awesome videos! stay safe!!
Hi there. So glad you found us then. We look forward to doing more pipeline lifestyle videos soon. I (kayla) have been around trailers all my life and find 5th wheels much easier to maneuver and they for sure pull smoother in my opinion. They do have great options now though for travel trailers so I think they are doable, but the fifth wheel is our preference.
Definitely 5th wheel! Looking forward to see more of videos of u and Austin. I enjoy it! My finance really like that cooking pressure pot. I showed her the video that u show how to use pressure pot. Now she is going to get it sometime this week and try it. Lol so anyway looking forward to see other video!
We plan on making videos for a long time. Hope she loves her pot as much as I do. I have used it to death. Making rice right now actually. Y'all take care and talk soon!
I would like to see a detailed view of the lead rack to support your welding leads when welding on the opposite side of the pipe.
Hey, Jimmy. Thanks for watching. I will let Austin know and hopefully we can get that out for you eventually. Hope your well.
I just bought a Miller Bobcat 250 and want to add it to my two ton truck and would like to see how I could make these cable support racks.
Coming out of welding school, I don't even know where to start. 😅😅😅
Share tips soon. Be on the look out.
Man that's one sweet rig.
Man, nice rig & you look young but, have 1 heck of a truck!!! I don't go anywhere w/out a toolbox!!! prob why my car sags a bit. maybe if I had a truck all decked out, maybe id have better a job? I look at it this way, if I have to rebuild my car on the side of the road, I want to be prepared!!! only difference is, I don't have a welder in my car & that looks like a big, no nonsense welder!!! I like your rig brother man!!! I had a 87 f-150 w/ 429 & c6 transmission, park didn't engage!!! Had 2 jump out & throw a 4x4 behind the rear wheel & sometimes, get out & chase my truck & hope to god that I could stop it!!! Several times, it rolled over the 4x4 & I was barely able to stop it!!! the old fred flinstone way w/ my back up against the tailgate & my feet on the pavement!!! Ghetto!!! NOTHING LIKE YOUR NICE RIG!!! THO MY 78 WOULD RIDE WILLIES!!!
i noticed you’re from oklahoma. enjoy the videos!
good lookin bed now I need to build one
More about the fenders for sure!
Hot damn, nice setup. Thanks for the tour!
SkepticalZombie
You bet. Thanks for watching.
Great looking truck👍👍
I'd like to know more about the fenders.
awesome truck, good build on box, and dodge truck A++++++++
Thank you. We agree on the Dodge. - Kayla
Nice rig that's skill on doing your own bed
man that's some rig
Would you recommend a van for welding and service vehicle?
Nice rig ✌🏻️
Love the welding rig
Thank you for watching - Kayla
Looks real nice man
awesome truck nice setup. great vid!!
Looks almost like the bed I'm building now
Rarely pull a trailer, not a pipeliner, but want this rig bad lol just know it would be better than my 10 Silverado 1500
Kayla here. I don't know. I kinda miss my 06 Chevy. That thing had such a comfy ride.
dang that truck has cruze control
Slick rig! I really like that bed! You should do a more in depth video on tools I noticed a jack stand clamp I'd like to see if you have other home made stuff. Do you carry bevel machines normally?
Nice rig
Stevie solis
Thanks!
Damn man that's a badass bed!
John52 Chesser
Thanks
Nice set up.
looks awesome man. thanks for the vid.
Garrett Adams
Thanks! You bet! I enjoyed making the video.
Very nice.
Sweet rig
Nice rig setup 🤩
Excellent job nice truck
Joh bud.here in south Africa you would need more locks bud.its a awesome rig bud. I eager to work in usa .from south Africa
I'd like to see how he set up the b&w turnover ball as I am about to start my bed I really like that idea
cj glassey I will try to get some closer shots and maybe have him give some pointers on that specific part. Have fun with your bed. We love the process.
that's cool man like the way u made it look 👍
Sheldon Yazzie
Thanks
Can you explain your 5th wheel to gooseneck conversion and how everything tows being moved back so far?
Shoot I just wanna know where you picked that chrome hard hat up
very nice truck. good explanation.
Nice rig brother 👍🏻
Thank you!
good job! guys
Sherrie Machart
Thanks!
Would like to see the specs of the bed. Simplicity looks way better I think. Nice set up man
what are the benefits of this over a transit van?
Finally!! Haha. Such a clean ass rig! Have you had a problem with the flux breaking off the rods at all? What rods do you usually carry with you? 6010? 7010? 7018?
I don't have trouble with the flux breaking off. It depends on the gas company but normally 6010 & 8010.
Sick rig brother !
ivan adame
Thanks
Nice set up!!
Malique Portugues
