- čas přidán 19. 10. 2020
- Alrighty! Here is how to easily make the most complex part of the 270 awning right at home. If you want to print out the same template i use in the video i've added the link below. I priced it at about the same price as a roll of duck tape and every sale is going right back into the truck, tools and more videos to share so thank you so much to everyone supporting the channel i really appreciate it.

This video includes a lot of cutting and grinding that i could probably remove to make the video shorter. But since I want to video to serve as a guide to anyone making their own hinge, i left it in to show an accurate amount of work you might expect when taking on the project your self.
Tools used, no affiliation.
Steel used is 3/16th plate
Drill bits 1/4 for pilot hole and 5/16th to finish

Just made mine using your template, I welded it a bit different but so far so good! Great project man, I'm glad I found your videos!
Thats awesome paul! super stoked for you, and thanks for the support!
I’m watching this while camping in my 03 Tacoma double cab. The wife and I are hunkered down in the rain this AM in the camper shell. I am totally building one of these. Awesome Job man. I’ve loved your vids and builds for years.
I know I'm not alone in saying I REALLY appreciate you openly sharing your low cost solutions. Thank You!
Edit to add: Use a little cutting oil (motor oil works too) when drilling metal. It lubes the bit, floats away cuttings and helps keep everything cooler. All good things for preserving bits.
Heck ya, i love sharing ideas and learning myself along the way.
@@OverlandUnderBudget Awesome! FYI: I added a metal drilling tip to my comment.
Agreed! Thanks
Another great tool is a step-bit, it keeps the holes perfectly circular and drills through steel like butter.
@@nickohdub with the step bit you would have to drill the plates separately.
I'm sure I'm not the only one here who truely appreciates this help. kindness, help hard work and common sense. Thanks dude
I really appreciate that!
I would love to see you build a welding table and get a vice! As an old guy, please save your back! Great project, I enjoyed watching
You're a beast for sharing all this. I literally just bought a welder after watching your videos. It's something I've always wanted to do, just put it off for many many years. Here we go. Bought to learn a new skill. 💪😎
This is something that will be great to add to the Jeep, just going to make sure the measurements are right for it. I've made a galley for the back of the Jeep so this would be great cover for cooking too !!!
Awesome build there mate, a little tip, cut 3 spaces from the tube you used to make sure the gap is correct, then bolt them into place when your ready to weld, it will keep it nice and straight and help reduce any warping!
You definitely made this look a lot simpler to do than I imagined. Looks good
Can’t wait to watch this in detail later. You gave me the inspiration to build my own freestanding to replace my current mass produced 270.
Heck yes! its so fun getting to share ideas, excited to see how your new build turns out!
Overland Under Budget, If you really under the budget and you don't want to purchase the circular saw blade or no circular saw, you can cut two pieces of the 3/16 flat metal plate slightly larger than the template. Tack weld them together. Drill the pivot holes on the metal according to template. Install the 3 short bolts to hold them together then cut the outside edges of the template with a 4 1/2 inch angle grinder ( 5-packs Dewalt cutting blade for $7.98 @ Lowes). Now you have a perfect matching plate. I've been wanting to design one for my 4RUNNER but I haven't a chance. To much dirt play time. This Idea give me an incentive to build my roof rack to hang the awning. Thank you for sharing this great design. It sure cut the time for me to design and build one.
agreed! the angle grinder and cut off wheel are the king of the garage!
Great video! Tip: Use a punch to mark your holes instead of a marker. It also helps to keep your bit from walking on you.
Good job and good way to expose and market your template downloads
Cutting fluid will help a lot while drilling. If you don't want to buy it you can dilute some Elmer's glue with water and pour a little in the hole two or three times while drilling. It'll go quicker and spare your drill bits a little since all your viewers are probably on tight budget.
wow thats a trick ive never heard of, thanks for the tip!
This is so cool. Thanks for doing this! Now I just need to get a welder and learn how to do it.
Tank you for share this, I’m gonna built it for my runner, sheers from Baja Mexico 🇲🇽
Thank you for these amazing videos Micah, much appreciated! What an innovative project. Just as a side, I would highly advise to take care of your back more; working bent over like that is not good for it over the long term (or your knees!). Perhaps you can make a welding table and stool and that way we get another DIY video too haha! Cheers
agreed! haha a welding table is on the list. Thanks for looking out
@@OverlandUnderBudget I agree with @maarkbar. I am newbie welder also and the most import thing that I found and am always told in welding is to get in a comfortable position. You will enjoy it better and your welds will be better and easier. Look for a cart on CL I did and I welded a 3/16" plate to make the top bigger. You can add locking wheels from HF for easily moving. Also get yourself a Automatic Center Hole Punch, makes drilling holes so much easier.

Thank you so much. Really appreciate the information shared. That's what we all need to do, help each other. Keep up the great work.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the video. Since I don't have the wherewithal, I can just hope that i can buy the kit one day.. Keep up the good work.
one day that is the plan!
Got my gas, going metal shopping right now. Thanks for the great videos!
Heck yes! once you start playing with metal there is no going back!
This is definitely going to be my next project! Perfect project to practice my welding. Thanks for posting and I like your chill style video.
Awesome! Thank you!
about the welding settings. for short circuit mig, if it sounds like cooking bacon youre ok. but, you can find setting charts online and adjust from there.
theres also a few apps for android (i assume there must be some for ios as well) that you write what size are you welding and it will tell you the basic settings, again, for you to start adjusting cause every machine is different.
oh and btw.... get a vice if you can. itll make cleaning small parts safer.
Was hoping you would post this. Thanks! Time to start another project!
Heck ya! glad i could help start a project.
Hey bro awesome that you put up the template, could you please show how you attached the tarp and what kind of cloth you used for the final set up
Wanted to emphasize some sort of cutting oil, and get yourself a center punch or spring loaded punch from harbor freight. They are like $8 and make starting the drill bit much easier. It won't wander around. Once I get my garage finished up I'm definitely making one of these. Thanks for doing the hard work!
Heck ya thanks for the tip, I’ll pick one up!
Great how-to!!!!!!!! hope to see more content
thank you, More to come!
@@OverlandUnderBudget I own a laser
I would like to laser engrave a couple of 30oz drink tumblers with your logo and send your way
just a tech tip if you look under the lid of your welding Machine there is a diagram that helps you set your setting for the thickness of metal. great job though keep up the great work!!!!
YEs! not sure why I haven't consulted that sooner haha thanks!
@@OverlandUnderBudget lol thanks Great job keep up the great work
Definitely building this! Thanks for the detailed walk through.
Advice:
A grinder and paint makes the welder I ain't 😜
haha 100%
Great video. That's for sharing
I am going to build one for my planned teardrop when I get to it. Nice job, sounds like you could up the amps a bit, should sound like frying bacon.
Nice work! I have a 99 Tacoma I am working on overlanding. Your Tacoma has been a huge inspiration since I’ve started watching the videos. If you ever decide to sell prefabricated hinges let us know!! I’d definitely get one 😎😎
Right on, i will be sure to post a video on here once i get to that point, thank you!
Nice job mate.... please can I have the plate schedule with the hole measurements??? Thanks a lot for your video
Hello I just purchased your bracket templates but I’m having trouble finding the arb bag , do you have a link for it ? Thanks in advance 🙏🏼
Same.
With a Jeep grand cherokee, do I have to mount the awning high enough so the awning will allow the rear door to open fully??
Can you show me more about the bar you mentioned to hold the other end of the bag up?
Looks good brother..
Just a suggestion, bro. I noticed u posted the picture of ur tempmate and list of bolts on the website. I think it's brilliant to have put it for sale. U deserve to get compensated for ur creation. But u canscreenshott it and resize it to fit a standard sheet of paper and print it for free. I would probably take the picture of the product ur selling off. Dont want u getting cheated
Do you make a Video of making the tarp for the awning. When does it come????
Working on that now!
Can't wait for the vid about the tarp, if I'm not mistaken I believe harbor freight has a 30% off coupon for all tarps through the end of the month. the small percentage won't make that much of a difference but every penny helps in these currently times.
Do a video on your roof rack!!
Hi, i am from Brazil and a love the vídeo
hello from California! thanks for watching
Any suggestions for your 270 awning on a 1999 chevy suburban? Length of arms , bracket mounted slightly rearward? Your video's are very inspiring! Also ,I want to pay you for your plans, but not used to sending money on CZcams or internet. Thanks for all you do!
Hey! Thanks so much, I would say keeping the arms at the same length as the video will let you run that tarp really easy. But longer arms like just 7.6 or 7.10 would still fit in the bag.
Need a video on the tarp construction...
Yes!!! Working on that
What size wire are you using? That makes the difference in all of the settings to weld 3/16 plate.
I’ve been using 035 for everything so far. Let me know what you think! Also I’ve been running the machine off 120v this whole time, I need to get a 220v extention
Hi. I just bought your templet because a Love thease build. The Problem ist i am living in Germany and i need to know the exact Setting on the printer because we have different mesurings. Could you Tell me what Scale 100% means? Thx
Yes i found the ride printer sice because of your 1 inch scale. 1 inch is 2.54cm and i found the ride setting. Know i can start the build and looking forward to you tarp cut build. Best wishes from germany. Sven
Thats great news, and how cool that you used that 1inch block to figure it out!
@@OverlandUnderBudget yes the 1 inch block was very helpful. Very good templet. Looking forward to use the awning the first time. Thx
This is great.
Thank you!
This is awesome
I love your videos!!!
Question where did you get the 2000x2000 ARB bag from? I can only find the 2000x2500 and I really want to get the 2000.
Thanks in advance.
Great video. Could you please advice where to purchase the template...
saw you in paso today
Haha no way! Such a small world 🌎
Print 2, and spray gluevthe pattern to the meatal
How do i donwload the template? I paid the found but it does not give me the option to download.
Disculpa me interesa pero no puedo traducirlo al español
More information about your business and the patren of the canpie
Nice build...!....Just wonder are you selling or have you sold your old awning?
Sounded like you needed more wire speed
Ahh I’ll try that!
I think wire speed in conjunction with the amount of gas. The black residue would indicate too much gass.
Great ✨✨ 😜🤳🏽💯
Love it!! Are all the beams the same length front to back?
the two inner arms are 7ft, and the outer arm is 7' 4"
19:07 me at the slightest inconvenience
Can I buy that hinge you just made on this video? Thanks.
I might put that up for sale!
@@OverlandUnderBudget Please notify once its up for sale. Will look forward to it. Thanks!
I second that! I’d buy a pre-fabricated hinge from you as well!! Great work!
Nice
Thanks
