Sometimes the biggest part of a fabrication job is not the welding, it is listening and understanding.👂💡
🥃🐷 Our good friends at Whiskey Pig Ranch brought us a bale spear attachment that had been modified by someone a while back. The problem? It was not built the way they originally wanted it.
Not only was the tubing added in a completely different spot than requested, the tubing was too thin for the workload this attachment sees.❌ Bale spears are subjected to heavy loads, constant shock, rough terrain, and years of abuse. Thin wall material is not a sustainable choice for this type of equipment, and the previous tubing had already begun to deform from use.
After discussing their original vision, I removed the old setup and rebuilt the attachment using substantially heavier material better suited for this equipment.
The result is a stronger, more durable bale spear that was built the way the customer wanted from the beginning and is ready for years of ranch work.💪
At Smitty’s Mobile Welding, we make sure we use the right material for the job and, most importantly, we listen to what our customers need.🔥
