    Love your talents and teaching. I'm 67. I love making things, wood, metal, welding, etc.. I feel I wasted a lot of years not pursuing what I'm gifted at. Keep following your passions while you have your youth, it slips away quickly my friend.

      I'm only 38 and feel that life is way to short for all I want to do.

    Please show how you attach the body to the chassis. As a mechanic (aircraft), I love the detail stuff and it's never covered in books. I appreciate the series. I've learned a lot.

      Great suggestion, I will cover this in a future video! Thanks for watching!

    Fabulous series. Would like to see a close up and explanation of your radius bender along with how you make and bend the aluminum tubing you use for under-structures. We really appreciate the extra effort you put forth in teaching/videoing for us.

      Thanks for the feedback! I will do a video specifically on this in the future.

    Love just freaking all of it! I can't wait to start new my own car!!! Are we going to see a chassis making set of videos I wonder?

  • @bullrush1725

    Fabulous work mate. Question, did you find it easier to build over an existing car like your Veleno or over your own chassis?

  • @DrydeeMetalWerks
    @DrydeeMetalWerks Před rokem

    Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge, making a body of a buck is a life long goal of mine. You are really inspiring! Will you do a series on the chassis fabrication in the future?

    I assume all the cleco holes get welded.

      The bulkhead cleco points get riveted👍🏻

    What made you go from a metal buck to wood? Thanks Chris!

    •  Před rokem +2

      Great question- I have had several orders for the RS and at the same time I have extended the wheelbase since the first two were built. With the extended wheelbase I was shaping the tube bucks on the fly to accommodate. I decided to scan the buck and have it really dialed in digitally, then CNC cut out of wood. This gives me a more precise buck to work off of for making multiples. Traditionally, a tube or wire buck would be used for more one-off competition cars. After working both with the original wood bucks for my builds and then doing the Superleicht Tube buck I've found that the wood is in fact more efficient and easier to build off of. Both have their place but right now the wood is working excellent.

    You will get more views if you create a reddit account, and post links to your videos in all the car subs. Dont rely on youtube or the the algorithm.
