    Dude this is awsome! I built a cage for my rc4wd hilux and just eyeballed it. I had the exact same perspective, it isnt a comp crawler its just something cool. I really appreciate your down to earth attitude towards just having fun with building and stuff that looks cool. 👌

    Dude! Great work! Im on board with doing things that we want and not necessarily for performance. I don't always measure either but one thing I did that makes life so much easier is welding two sticks side by side only at the ends. that way when I ben them I get two for one and its an exact mirror on the other side. It speeds up the process a ton and gives you more time for the fun detail stuff! New sub here!

    Great video. Thanks for making it. When you go to bend your metal, it’ll save your hands and give you a lot more leverage if you put the rod into some type of pipe and use it as torque. Can’t wait to try this!

    The cage could be a freaking body it self - I already see how amazing this crawler will be - Awesome work !!! Perhaps Mad Max style? HAha

    This is great. I wish I had the time and means to learn welding and cage work. These are my favorite rigs to come across on the trails and at beat the creek.

    Great vid! Couldnt you bend two rods at the same time? That way they will be more or less exact mirrors

    If you heat the rod with a torch and then do your bend it will make it easier :) Just sit a Bucket of water next to you and quench it once you get the bend. It doesn't take much heat to make the metal easier to bend

    There is a black iron oxide paint that would look great in one of these all rusted up.

    Can you show how you fasten exocage to body? I’m wanting to build my first on on a tf2 body. Don’t want to weld to frame.
    Love your work
    My style. Forget measuring tapes lol

  • @gtboogie4846
    @gtboogie4846 Před 4 měsíci

    i want to do something similar, but how do i mount it and still be able to take the body off to change the battery and stuff ?

    • @WafflesRC-pb4nt
      @WafflesRC-pb4nt  Před 4 měsíci

      On this one I made it so I can get the battery in and out from the bottom since it doesnt have full sliders. I have the body bolted to the cage and the cage bolted to the frame. 4 bolts out and I can have it off to fix or service.

    Can i use portable tig weld to make a cage like that? thankyou for answering

    • @WafflesRC-pb4nt
      @WafflesRC-pb4nt  Před 4 měsíci

      I believe it would work just fine. I think it might be better than my big welder honestly.

  • @ivantheseal8936
    @ivantheseal8936 Před 5 měsíci

    Did you mig or flux core weld it?

    • @WafflesRC-pb4nt
      @WafflesRC-pb4nt  Před 5 měsíci +1

      I used a mig. But I think a flux would do just as well, just with more cleaning after

    • @WafflesRC-pb4nt
      @WafflesRC-pb4nt  Před 5 měsíci +1

      I got it from AMain Hobby. Its not a crawler body thats why the wheelbase is so short.
