Looks great Robert, thanks for the continued videos. Cheers.

Your Skippy all day.... like I said you have no clue AND you missed the point of the video .... I have 200 videos on youtube, and if you scroll through the playlist you will realize your skill level and mine .... by the way I could find any videos you have made verifying you have any experience.... until then your just ANOTHER keyboard jockey named Skippy.....

Brother I love how you take urctime with every project and you do the same in explaining how all of it can be accomplished in someone's garage!! Great job as always brother, keep it up!!!

As always plain simple effective how to do for the lay man...appreciated

CAD, cardboard aided design. We used cardboard out some Tig wire and masking tape then transfer the tape to a sheet

Very nice!!! What you recommend for panels or patch panels Guage. 18 or 20?

Thank you for taking the time to share. I appreciate it and you

Great work! Very clean! What do you plan to use to seal the transmission tunnel? My first thought is a high temp butyl tape but curious about your approach.

old trick thats been proven to be wrong... the yes there are some of the same ingredents, but the hardner is ment to harden the filler, it will harden with the resin... but there are products made to do exactly what you are trying to do... use the proper product for the proper repair...

Brilliant

I appreciate your neat and clean work. Thanks for sharing

Awesome work. It's good to see some bead rolling again!

Awesome, will definitely try this next time 👍

Nice work!

👍

A wonderful hand work it is so vlean. Thanks for sharing this idea.

I just want to take the time to say thank you to all of my supporters and followers, you are appreciated !

👍

Thank you, Robert. 👍👍

Nice work never thought about welding rod I always just went to lowes and but steel rod for the edges I also bought me some magnets at harbor freight to sometimes hold the rod on the panel

I bought me some flexible machinest straight edges to use on body panels my Sherwin Williams primer had guide cost built in

Appreciate any advice. And your videos. I need to install a floor pan (from firewall to rear seats in a 62 convertible. Do you recommend installing from above or below?

Can't u use liquid dish soap like in drywall mud?

I knew that !

So then, will fiberglass resin _harden_ with Bondo Hardener? ... and vice versa?

This works better than expected, Thanks!

Do that way all the time

Looking good.. where Can i bye a set to my tank ?

After watching this again, and even though I have a couple fab tables, I think I’m gonna get this table for railings, exhaust, more precise work. My tables aren’t the flattest.

Hiii @guzzifabrication3448 plz I request u to upload a video of transparent fuel tank Part 3 its a humble request 🙏🏻

That's awesome! Now it makes me wonder if you can thin it enough to spray. . .

You should do bedtime narration stories on YT, nearly put me to sleep listening to you drone on after only 2mins in. ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz

Summary- Thin the bondo with Fiberglass resin. Slowly stir the resin into the Bondo until you get the desired consistency (around 10 to 20 percent). There- you saved 8 minutes.

Wow now thats an excellent hack

5:42 Spoiler alert. So, I see questions here about whether you must also use the resin's hardener AND the paste Bondo hardener. Answer is NO. I did a test with A Bondo straight out of can, B Bondo mixed with resin and combined hardeners, and C, Bondo mixed with resin and ONLY Bondo paste hardener. B and C were way smoother and flowed-out very flat. C with ONLY Bondo paste hardener cured exactly the same as with mixed hardener. ALSO... I did the test on a flexible surface and all 3- A, B, and C had the SAME cured flexibility, concluding that there is NO extra brittleness or softness when Bondo is thinned with Resin. This is especially helpful with thin "skim" coats, as you don't need to totally rely on the spreader to shape; it will flow-out to some extent over uneven surfaces leaving a much more uniform skim coat.

The issue of course is that thinned filler can't be built up on a vertical surface ... if you can orient your surfaces flat or put on very thin coats ... no problem. But it's pretty hard to do that working on the side-panels of a car. In that case you have a few choices ... one obvious one is do most of your build-up with the stock bondo, grind back and then do a thin coat for surface quality... but ... Personally I almost never work with bondo anymore, fundamentally because it is bloody expensive and it isn't a great filler. And it doesn't bond or hold to surfaces all that well -- three big strikes right off the bat. The only good thing it does have going for it is that it sets up fast, and that's why body shops use it -- time is money. But for everything I do I use MGS-285 ... an aircraft-grade epoxy, and almost always thicken with microballoons. This is far better end-quality, also much lighter. It is much slower hardening unless you can UV cure. It's also very slightly gritty if you have mixed it as dry as is recommended for aircraft work. But it sands well, and leaves a surface that any good primer will fill beautifully, you don't even need a high-build primer.

A video listing or describing your materials and most useful tools would be helpful for DYIers. Specific materials and possible sources would be a welcome addition to you excellent videos. I have two farm tractors to restore and your videos provide basic technical education which I believe will be very helpful.

GOOD AFTERNOON SIR...QUESTION I HAVE A 63 SS CONVERTIBLE ALSO..BUT THE CONVERTIBLE RACKHAS NO BOLTS IN IT...WHAT ARE THE CORRECT BOLTS FOR THE FRAME TO BOLT DOWN TO THE B..PILLARS

yeah.... those bastards been doing that with every product I buy. Double the price and get half what you used to get. It's a crime but it's A ok for these rich focks to do this

Probably could do this right on the pallet, adding a little resin at a time until the consistency is right, instead of thinning the whole can at once. That way you can adjust for a smaller job that you need just a little filler for. Like someone commented before, I use bondo to patch woodworking and carpentry projects, wood repair, etc.

You learn something new everyday, thanks,

Drywall section at da Big Box places. Make life so easy building a house.

Have you had the trailer sway with this setup? It looks like too much weight in the back versus the front.

This is an awesome tip...

Why is the.can of filler only half full? Why does Bondo have no instructions of how much hardener to filler? The video shows a tiny amount of hardener to filler. So the can of filller should be nearly full, not half fulll.

Useful but why spend 10 minutes to say what can be said in 2 minutes.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us. Never dreamed this could be done. Absolutely love your videos.

Obviously you don't mix on cardboard

What is a”DA?” It would be helpful if you’d define such terms or abbreviations as you narrate the video. Thanks!

Not even a welder but im learning alot. Now i get when you tell me about reaistance welds!
