Self Employed metal worker

[Ralph]

Hi,
I am an old fabricator that has a small shop. I am looking for ways to build some of my own tools to save money. A lot of the work I do is custom and unique.. I have attached a display of some barn door hardware that I produce. Those brackets have a patina finish.

Hi Ralph - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

The barn door hardware is interesting; I like the hammered steel look

What are you thinking about building next? Here are some ideas from last week's projects:

Adjustable Stands
Dremel Router Base
Drill Bit Stand

Hi Jon, and thank you. I was wondering if anyone has some free plans out there for building a flat bar roller. I would like to roll some steel for some furniture and other ornamental things I would like to build.
Thank you,
Ralph

I don't know of any specific free plans, but I would take a look at some of our search results for ideas:

Sounds good. Thanks for your help.
