Like Rolling Off A... Dumpster? Who Knows What I Will Be Welding Next?

 




Even roll-off dumpsters wear out or rust through. Replacing them is quite costly, but refurbishing them with some creative welding extends the life of the dumpster at a fraction of the cost. These are some shots from many years ago refurbishing some dumpsters for a local refuse company. It's always interesting what I will be welding next.

Certified Rebar Welding In The Extreme - Croz Custom Metal Fabrication At Your Service





Several years ago, Urata & Sons Cement out of Rancho Cordova hired me to do some work at the WHHS Morris Hyman Critical Care Pavilion on Bart Way in Fremont. I was asked to weld 1,600  5/8” rebar to the third and fourth-floor decks prior to the concrete being poured. Whew! That's a lot of welds!

Mobile Welding On Tesla Super Charger

 






Last year, because of COVID, Potential Electrical Design Services decided to cancel one of the Tesla Super Charger stations in the Vacaville Factory Stores. They had to cut some of the mounting tabs off in order to install them and couldn’t return the modules with them missing. So I made them like new again.

Trellises and Other Fun Ornamental Projects








Completed Project

This is why I need a C-23 license with CSLB.

(https://www.cslb.ca.gov/About_Us/Library/Licensing_Classifications/C-23_-_ORNAMENTAL_METAL.ASPX)

I have that license so I can do these fun ornamental projects.. The images shown are decorative Trellises in front of Lennar at Innovations living community in Freemont. I did this welding job for Column Concepts of Benicia. Prior to the welding, these are ratchet-strapped together as I tap weld them, then I can start removing the straps as I go, then start welding these together.

Welding Skills Brings Me A Fascinating Variety Of Jobs









This was a fascinating job for the San Jose Stormwater department. They have a lot of underground (30’-40’ below) stormwater separation screens to filter out the leaves, plastic, and silt from the stormwater going to the bay. From time to time, because of large debris and lack of maintenance, the screens get damaged and need to be repaired and/or replaced.

Need Welding? Large and Small, We Can Do It All! - Croz Custom Metal Fabrication






This job was a little different, but also much fun!  These doors were not hung properly and were hitting the side walls when trying to fully open them which ripped the hinges off the base. I had to remove the door hinges, fabricate 2 each of 2” x 3” x ¼” rectangle tubing so I could extend the mounting position of the door hinges so when fully open, would clear the front wall.

Often times it doesn’t really matter how it’s done just so it’s right when I leave.
