Please, how much should be the ideal price for a tank stand for a bungalow. Proposing to have just one jp tank. Thanks.
budget 400,000. But if you go for galvanized pipes,it will be significantly cheaper.

For 400,000 what you get is 4 by 2 H channel for the stand and same for the load bearing. 3 by 1½ for the poline.

Then the basement should be casted with ¾" foundation rods by 3ft long.

But if you have it sunk into the earth,it will cost around 280-320,000 depending on your location and your negotiating skills.

Good luck

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 7:32pm On Nov 12, 2021
So after that, work started proper on the front side. Here are the photos

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 10:18am On Nov 12, 2021
And now, the gate has been turned and work started on the front.

Second picture is welding of the joints at the front

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 10:09am On Nov 12, 2021
Close up views of the welding.

If you observe, there are two welding involved.

The first welding was 4mm thick plate on the wrought iron frame. Reason for that is because the pipe can't withstand the intensity of the heat needed for the welding.



Second welding was between the plate and the conjoining pin itself.

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 10:00am On Nov 12, 2021
Actual welding of the conjoining pins. Initial welding was to hold them in place.

The intensity of heat needed to weld them is very high cause you need to melt the two metals

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 9:09am On Nov 12, 2021
Welding the conjoining pins. These stuff are what anchors the gate to the concrete casting

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 8:56am On Nov 12, 2021

unless you can afford 100,000 on a 3ft foreign door, this is by far a better option if done with the right wood

If you obey the laws of physics and geography without cutting corners on quality of materials, you can build an Everest.


The Egyptian pyramids and ancient palaces have stood for hundreds of years and thousands for some. They have survived some of the most brutal forces of nature such as tsunami and flooding. They have also survived generations of mankind and we're the most devastating force of nature.

By end of the day, I raised the gate from the ground. Leaving it on the ground isn't a good idea.

Plan is to start working on the front design tomorrow having completed the welding job on the back

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 9:24pm On Nov 11, 2021
After framing the gate,moved on to welding the pan.

Trust me this gate is very heavy and strong

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 7:12pm On Nov 11, 2021
After setting out the gate, I moved on to actual welding

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 7:10pm On Nov 11, 2021
This morning, work started earnestly

PropertiesRe: Let's Build A Beautiful Gate. DELIVERED by michlins(op): 7:09pm On Nov 11, 2021
Due to the election and the restriction on movements around here, I couldn't start the job last week and that has placed me behind schedule as the delivery timeframe is two weeks. The materials arrived on Tuesday evening
