  • Keep your rusty metal and use it as a template. This one I was able to use twice, for the left AND for the right side. These are some of the very few panels that we had to fabricate instead of using new ones.

    It's been great to watch you improve. It really seems like your fabrication skills are at a whole different level than they were when you started this channel. Thx for the inspiration!

    (The amount of wood and almost flat unstressed sheet metal work on a Tr3 is so much more bespoke and hand crafted than say a TR6). I’m sure every car that came out of the factory was almost totally unique and subsequently Elin’s work is very special and incredibly impressive. - He truly has golden hands..👏

    What u need to do Elin is hammer and dollie along the length of the weld and that will get rid of the buckle in the wing

    Nice work and good job on the video filming and editing !
    It’s amazing how dents and kinks on the rear fender / wing show up on the camera…. it might need your “special unbending tool” to get rid of the bump damage ! 😊

    Third, for whatever that is worth. Looking forward to watching, in any case. Well, I did watch it and am really impressed with your fabrication abilities! That car is going to be another patchwork special, and one of the best of its kind! Thanks, Elin!

    You had the old b-post panel as a pattern. If you drilled some holes in it, you could use it as your pattern for the new panel. The holes allow you to see how closely the new panel lies on top of the old panel from behind. This is far more accurate than that flexible shape pattern.

    Elin an old prop master trick when you need to tape an actor’s mouth shut with duct tape is to repeatedly stick the strips of tape to your clean blue jeans, the cotton fibres will stick to it, the more you repeat this the less and less sticky the tape becomes.
    The number of repetitions dependent on the whining coming from the actor.
    Painter’s tape would be one maybe with a single repetition to de-stick

    • @markrobinson8539
      @markrobinson8539 Před 4 měsíci

      Good idea. I bought some talcum powder to fix some sticky latex paint which wouldn't dry and I bet this powder would do a great job in removing the tape stickiness.

    Elin, I've got an HF 220v spot welder, and the welds seem to be sticking to the electrodes and even sparking off material. I'm honestly afraid to use it on the car, even though the test welds seem strong . Is there a trick to it?

    Really enjoy all your content.
    Can anyone point me to a video that would help me rebuild my TR250 seats. Any help would be appreciated.
