- Cutting out the rust holes and replacing them with new sheet metal, seems this campervan was worked on a bunch of times which makes sense since its from 1977... I am doing this type of repairs for the first time so bare with me as I attempt to make this thick boy beautiful again.
bring the coffee sipping moment back
keep it up!
Good basic panel work, Thi video was better than most ather repair panel videos iv seen. Tnx
🙏thank you
Fitzee’s fabrication is a great channel for this , learn a lot of tricks
Consider coating the backside of the patches before welding them in, usually not accessible from the inside/backside. Zinc better than nothing, cleaning and epoxy better but will deteriorate when you weld. Weld-through primer best when there's much welding on the outside, but the primer should be welded before it is completely dry and then it may burn (and stink) a little so make sure there's no wires or insulation and stuff inside.
Im wanting to learn how to mig weld Im learning more watching youre welding method.
Nice work,
you talk very well about what you do
I'm waiting for the next video 😉
A lot of work. Congratulations!
very professional others would only have put the outer can and left the rotten inside without reinforcement good job
That is the part I like most: 14:04 A large heap, say a mountain of scrap metal cut-offs that always contains the part that you just had in mind.
Without such a heap? Then stay behind the computer.
I rely on that mountain every day :D
Wonderful job mate....oh I so do hope you have a face guard on if that cutting go's so do you!
Terimakasih sudah berbagi.ilmunya.. Semoga makin sukses...🙏🙏
I reallly enjoyed it
nice fit
Weld those outside corners from the inside then when you grind you won't leave them thin.
Polyethylene isnt the best for template, i use thin cardboard some use paper which can be held in place by rare earth magnets.
No one uses the shield. I have been not using the shield for 30 plus years. Safety glasses and be careful.
Because you haven’t used it for 30 years it doesn’t mean that nobody got hurt because he removed it
Wow! Amazing!
Nice one
Great job!
Where is your safety guard on the angle grinder.?
It is clear to see that you are not a sheet metal smith. Patches like this. Now change to whole pieces. And using 90 degree corners on your new plates will not last. Any sheet metal worker knows that inside and outside corners must be with a circle. Otherwise the joints will crack.
And remember that all plates that are changed MUST have the same design and be welded as from the factory. That is, a plate that is cut and a new one inserted MUST be fully welded, and joints from the outside side MUST be inserted and welded into the inner post, it has something with safety in the event of an accident.
Greetings from a Danish sheet metal smith
This is what we laugh at when they come to the shop. "body fully restored recently" and then we cut. Even if he doesn't buy the panels, he could've done so much better in the same timeframe.
You are really going to hurt yourself with that grinder one day!
Me ha gustado mucho tu vídeo. Ya también estoy reparando óxidos en mi canal pero tú eres un profesional. Un saludo. Me suscribo!
thank you 🙏 returned the sub
Can I suggest something like zipwheels to get you back to decent shinning steel far more harder wearing and won't clog as much as them disc's
Top job🏆👏
Curious if you considered creating a single larger patch instead of the multiple smaller patches?
i figured larger patches demand longer welds so i went with as less welding as possible.
как он болгаркой работает у меня аж яйца вспотели от страха , наверное запасные руки у него есть ?
👍
isn't it far too dangerous to use the grinder withouth the shield?
yup
Почему нельзя сделать шаблон из картона!!!???
😲😲😲 wooow
Replacing two panels with one ? Jikes….. just get the patch panel
i you cant do the job with the guard on the grinder , your using the wrong tool .
За это место стыка панелей , Фольксваген надо притянуть к ответственности как за дизель гейт. Каждая первая авто с этой проблемой. Конструктивный ляп. Ляпище.😢
Was für eine murkserei.
3 Month later new rost, shure......
Great job!
