Mixed day

Well, today I ran out of sheetmetal, and can't pick more up until tomorrow morning. So today, I bent up what I had left, and worked on some website stuff. My website launched today http://www.wegnermetalworks.com/, and is under construction so please be patient. It will soon have the capabilites to checkout directly through paypal. We will be adding more products as I get better pictures taken of the products I am making. I still need to set up a photo shop to take some better pictures. I would like to thank Amos Davis for creating this site for me and doing it in a very timely manner. 

First pan of the new year

 Today I was making good progress.I boxed up two orders,and shipped three out. Did some coorespondence with my web designer about my website that should be launched in the short future. This 2x3 divided pan with preheater is my first pan to make in 2010, and is for Paul in MA. I started the preheater this last weekend, and had the pan formed also. Today I welded the rest of it up and started polishing. Tomorrow I'll finish polishing, leak test and hopefully package for shipment. I'll start making a small custom pan, and preheater for Chris in Maine.

Solvent Tray

This is a solvent tray I made for  Michel in Quebec, Canada.

Busy week ahead

Sorry for no pictures lately. With New Years and the weekend, I haven’t had time to upload anything. I’ve been keeping very busy in the shop. This week is my layoff rotation from my real job, so I will be putting some long hours in the shop. The weather has been cold, its been hovering at or below zero for the last couple days, so I’ll have to get up extra early to get it warmed up to a reasonable temperature. Stay tuned…… I’ll have some good pics tomorrow.

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Day after Christmas in the shop

I had to take a few days off to visit family and friends for Christmas. I finished welding the divided pan for Chris and Adam in NY. I just need to polish the seams and leak test ,then its ready for packaging and shipment.

Here's just a couple shop pictures. My JET buffer now mounted, just need to get the wheels.

My other two grinders mounted on pedestals, and closer to the welding bench to same time.

Re-designing the shop

I've spent quite a few hours the last couple days re-designing the flow of my shop. I had to make some accomadations for 3 grinders on pedestals, a new welding bench and the new saw. Its almost complete, just need to bolt down the pedestals and grinders. I would like to add a few more lights over the shear, brake and welding table. I'll post pictures when I can.

Pans for Colin, BC Canada

This is a 2x2 flat pan with a 1x2 preheater, and a 15x15 finish pan. This was a real challenge to package in one box, but I'm sure it will make it there safely.
