    It’s been awesome getting to be home. We are jumping back and forth between two jobs at the moment. A bridge job and the fence/ranch job. It has been awesome getting to be apart of both of them. In this episode you will get to come with us as we arrive on the job and get to work welding and repairing gates and building new fence and up and overs. These pens will be used for working cattle so they need to be built stout. The next project for the day was building and welding some hay forks for the backhoe bucket. Come hang out with us as we get our projects done. Everyone be blessed.

    Welding is such a versatile career path, I mean let’s be honest, pipeline, structural, mobile welding, shop welding, fabrication, repair. The list goes on and on. My father always told me, one of the biggest keys to being successful in business is being willing to go do what you have to do to get by. Great video!!!!!

    Jake, another great video - I love watching y'all work. One suggestion - maybe some voice over / narration on this kind of work. As someone who's wanting to weld professionally, give us some more details. Like what exactly was the ranch boss wanting done on that hay fork setup ? Were you just reinforcing the forks and fabricating a bucket mount ? And talk about what you're running - rod and welder setup wise. It's just more info that would be good to put along with watching. Just a suggestion, keep up the great work. And glad to see you reppin' a Texas company :)

    As a guy that spends his time building fences, feedlots, and cattle enclosure barns i can tell you i can get you or the guys your working for some really nice gates for pretty dang cheap that will actually hold up. Those muffle pipe gates are good for pastures but not working facilities. Second piece of advice is if you get a decent sized fence job i would look seriously into getting a gas Miller 250 if i was you. Brand new they are $4500 put 1500 hours on it and sell it for $4000 and keep your awsome pipe pro for the pipe and structural work. Pipe fence you set the machine at about 120 and have at it👍🤙 besides that awsome video as always and stay safe out there.
