=Power Cube 4.0 Construction
Here's how to replicate our Powercube 4.0 design. Keep in mind that this the powercube is still at the prototype stages and designs are likely to change.
Jig (optional)
The jig is an optional piece of fabrication equipment that can be very useful to have if you are creating a bunch of these.
Materials List
Steel
14' Angle 2" (1/4")
7'2" Rebar (1/2")
Cut List
Angle
1'10 1/4" x2 (red) 2'5 1/2" x2 (green) 2'2 1/2" x2 (yellow)
Rebar
2'6 1/2" 2'3 1/2" x2
Assembly of the Jig is fairly straight forward. Tack and weld the pieces in place. Be sure to note the overlapping order and the notch made at the bottom of the 1'10 1/4" piece (red).
Also note that the corners are offset 3/4" to give room for the cube to sit snugly in the frame (and a convenient gap for welding the corners.)
1'10 1/4" (red) 2'5 1/2" (green) 2'2 1/2" (yellow)
Torch holes in the corners below the frame as seen above. This allows room for the welding torch to get to the PowerCube while welding.
Jig fully assembled.
