So I was contracted by Oga Spyder80 to be part of his project. My jobs include

Standing tank

Gate and God willing

Rails.

The materials for the tank has been secured and my team were on site today. Tomorrow, the foundation work starts and I intend to finish the job on the tank on Thursday after which I will begin work on the gate.

So the client said that the colors were too bright for his liking and I repainted it all.

Eventually, I happen to like this new color. It has a blend of simplicity and tame

Good evening everyone. Happy new month. Make this month sure for us

It's not all bed of roses studying overseas for Africans, especially Nigerians. We face different forms of racism in one way or the other. Nigerian students studying overseas lets please feel free to share the various forms of racism we have faced.

I am based in China and on so many occasions, some Chinese would rather prefer to stand than to sit next to an African on a public bus. The most annoying thing is that they worship Europeans and Americans.

ok

I quickly contacted Michlins to give us some quality work. He will start building a tank tower here in this site. He quickly supplied the materials less than 24 hours after I mobilized him.

I'm hitting this site with my team first thing tomorrow morning. Thanks for making me a part of this project

Delivered the materials to Oga Spyder site today and I was able to meet him in person

And this is the finalized job

The concept versus the job done. Looking forward to another one

We are 400 bags to the good here.........

It was Cuppy that started it all.

Why run to social media. I am sure there are other ways she could have reached Zlatan.

after blocking her everywhere

I wish the girl is here on nairaland and if she is.
Is it true u are owning Zee






U don’t even know what’s up. No body is hating on her but she has refused to pay for service rendered to her ??

so in your mind now,zlatan went into the studio to dance up and down without getting paid. Like he's looking for publicity or something?


Make him drag her to real court and claim rights to intellectual properties instead of speaking through unknown figure

Starting today, I will be securing materials for a 28ft tank stand for our own engineer Oga Spyder880

The gate is still almost done with and so is the rails too.

Work is still ongoing on the burglaries but significant progress hasn't been made yet

Good morning everyone. I have been mobilized by Oga Spyder880 to do 28ft tank stand.

Enjoy your day

Work in progress here

How does the platform pay. Do you register and money start printing itself into your account.


We need to get sense in this country

n3xt:
You’re right. There are no more thick pipes

have you seen the trick on galvanized pipes. They will hammer the front to give you false sense of thickness

davodyguy:
You'll hear from me tomorrow.

I'm going to the welder to ask questions

here's more information about the gate. The framing and major works were done with 3 by 1½". The slats were made with 1" pipe. Kindly note that these are the materials I can see but there's no way their qualities will be verified. You really should trust your welder to do a job you will love

n3xt:
That gate is almost a decade old and I’ve NEVER had to fix a thing on it. Only repainted once.

The quality of materials used matters too.

the simplicity of this gate na die. Me be loving it

you follow me dey discuss the obvious drop in difference of the quality steel the other day. You were complaining how light 18mm guage pan has become. It didn't just affect that but almost all the materials. Right now, you see a china pan and they will paint it black as the real deal.

This is the problem with Nigeria. When people closest to power can't speak the truth but what the master wants to hear

omanzo02:
It depends on the type of stability application, with or without roller has their pros and cons. A roller on rail is another idea.

the first picture is how what I did to the picture above but seeing the pictures @N3xt shared, I wanted to try something new and better

starbuck:
I am in same shoe with you.. My reason, I am just tired of social media .. I hardly log in on whatsapp again, deleted my Instagram and telegram account, i don't reason twitter again and Nairaland will soon follow suit (will deactivate sooner).. I mostly active on Facebook at the moment.. Its well

you left Twitter for Facebook?

This sliding gate costing ₦400,000
A hit or a miss?

the pan is probably 2.5mm but there's no way I can verify from pictures. Same goes for the pipes. They're probably 1.5mm and all those add to the weight you talk about. The flower design is normal square rod.

Maybe my eyes don dey bad, but I can't see angle iron. Probably it's used somewhere the picture didn't capture

omanzo02:
It's very simple, the gate itself had no roller, the mechanism is equipped with long toothed rack and roller/toothed gear hidden behind the wall, the gate materials are light weight and behind has a counterweight for stability.

your explanation works better cause even if you place the rollers inside the frame, you still need to open a narrow gutter where the roller will fit into.


Your idea works @N3xt but I don't like the idea of tampering with the framing cause once the interior of the pipe(frame) is exposed to atmospheric materials like oxygen and moisture, next thing will be rusting.

n3xt:
I like the gate minus the flowers abi ornaments.

I'm interested in learning how they worked on the rollers that made it so hidden. Do you have any ideas you want to share.


I just looked at the floors and there's no provision for the rollers. Every place look just flat

davodyguy:
Thanks

I posted it here for you to contribute based on your experience.

We're currently rounding up on some projects. My plan is to start painting by tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, the work continues on the window burglaries. The designs are almost done with. Plan is to complete the designs by tomorrow or Friday latest

Few weeks back, Baba Egunmogaji2 started a DIY thread that inspired me to pick up some toys for my DIY metal/steel projects.

I’m starting a new thread to put to life some of my crazy and imaginary ideas and to also provide value, inspiration, and entertainment to as many people as possible.

michlins:
Happy Sunday guys. Looking forward to doing this if I can agree with the client

work is currently going on on this set of seats. I made a video about the progress of the job but I can't upload here due to limitations of Nairaland
