  • On this episode of Make it Kustom, I am shaving the windshield posts to make way for a Duvall windshield as well as gapping the doors and filling some holes in sheet metal.

    You inspire me to melt steel, blow through every panel that needs welding and generally make a huge mess...It's GREAT and I learn every time I 'make mess'. One of THE best channel on 'The Tubes'...Cheers...(from Scotland)

      Malcolm that is amazing! Ha ha I absolutely love this comment because I’ve been there lol you’re right it’s the best way to learn and I’m stoked that you’re having a great time!

      Get a scrap door from an old 90s car and practice. My car has over 4mt of spot weld shaving handles and taillights and decklids. Takes a Long time but it's great to say you did it all by hand yourself.

    This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels! No BS, no blather, no boring segments. I now have a growing list of tools I "need" so I can try out some of these techniques! The skill involved in your work is humbly showcased, but in no way minimized. Thank you for making these videos and encouraging us to try things for ourselves. Fabrication has never been more approachable and charming!

    I absolutely love this channel. I could watch this all day everyday.
    I’m about to start the build of a boat tailed pre war special ( speedster for you across the pond 😉). I was going to use Aluminium but after watching you Karl I’m using steel.
    Please keep posting and thank you for all your tips and true craftsmanship. 👍
