Love your videos! A tip for others using an angle grinder to cut. Use a strip of masking tape wrapped around the rod instead of a drawn line. It will help you align it straight and help prevent the need to grind to straighten it later. My welding skills are terrible so hopefully if I watch enough of these they will become decent ha!

In addition to different jobs I would also like to watch a video about how to find said jobs as well as something about how to set your hourly rate. Someone starting out probably won't be doing a "$100/hour" quality, but even then they are probably worth more than "$10/hour". Essentially let's pretend that you are new to welding, but do have some experience working on your own stuff. You moved to a new town and don't really know anyone, but decided to start a welding job shop. And for the fun of it let's say that you _think_ that you are a "$30/hour" welder.

Cool video! Here is my advice to a young fabricator getting started. After a couple side jobs like mentioned here, take some of that profit and buy another grinder. Keep one dedicated to cutting and one dedicated to a flap attack! I personally like the dewalt grinders as well. You will be so happy when you dont have to swap the cut off wheel and flapper. Plus if one ever takes a dump you have one to keep you going until you can get another. This has saved me twice in a decade. Its a solid CHEAP investment to have two!

Wondering the same thing. Probably not the “right” thing to do, but I generally tack on an estimated few extra bucks. Honesty is key. Did you actually completely use up a flap disc? I’d bill it literally as “Consumables”.

@@GarageFab Right. If we wanted to get perfect, we'd have to weigh new flap disc and before/after the project to amortize what we used and bill accordingly. Nobody is doing that.
