Last week I received a call from a good friend, asking if I would be interested in fabricating a custom privacy fence. We had a change to meet a few times, and today I received 24′ steel tubing to start the project. These are some long tubes in my shop!!! I’m glad to have a forklift to move material this heavy around the shop! Here are some pictures of cutting the frame pieces. There will be more to come!
Getting the 24′ tubing throug my 16′ overhead door took a little finesse, but I got them in!
These tubes are long and heavy!
I used the shop cart and sheet metal rack to support the ends of the tubing.
Cutting away and making progress!
After miter cuttung one end, I had to finish cut all pieces to length.
I used the front end of my forklift as an adjustable stop for the tubing. It worked very well!
Here are all the parts cut, and ready for the next step. Tomorrow is another day!
