    Wow, this is exactly what I want to build behind my house to cover an "outdoor" gym area so that my equipment is protected from rain. I love the minimal look of the metal structure. This is exactly what want to do where one side has a higher pitch than the other but stands alone (not attached to the house). Great work!

    Plexiglass works as a greenhouse!!!! Especially on summer

    What thickness and size of plexiglass roof? And what about resistance to weather conditions?

    hi, what size posts and beams are those? and what wall thickness. planing on similar build but having trouble deciding on wall thickness to prevent sagging

      Looks like 1/8" wall thickness. You could probably get away with 1/16". I have a build video for a 10' x 12' steel gazebo on my channel where I used tubing of both wall thicknesses.

    How are you keeping it secure to the metal ?

  • @gerardocruz9604

    6013 or 6011 and what size of rod¿.? Because it's very hard to weld thin metals

    Awesome. Could you give me the specs of the welding machine? I was looking into that but for aluminum, you need argon, correct? TY in advance.

    • @Worldsbestname
      @Worldsbestname Před 2 lety

      That’s likely steel not aluminium?

    • @grippimatt
      @grippimatt Před 2 lety

      That's a basic arc welder that he's using to stick weld. For aluminum you'll need either a MIG welder with a bottle of argon gas or a TIG welder with a bottle of argon. Welding aluminum is tricky, you'll want to use steel if you don't know much about welding. I'd MIG weld it instead of stick welding. It's cleaner and easier. I have a build video on my channel for a 10' x 12' steel gazebo that's all TIG welded.

      @@grippimatt one can stick weld aluminum. Just gotta get the right electrodes.

    As a welder, they had to have hired the most unskilled welder in existence. Yeah just weld right over slag covered welds for slag inclusions so the welds break. Also, you’re playing Russian roulette using a cut off wheel as your only source of cutting material. Get a real saw, and a real welder to do this.

      Came here to say this. You can see this man has no knowledge, even basic knowledge of how welding works.
      It’s cringy to watch.

    I have a metal Pergola and can't find any detail videos on anyone attaching a plexi roof to one....what are you using to attach the roof to your Pergola?

      The easyest and cheapest method is to use self-tapping screws that come with a small rubber gasket
