    Taking a couple road signs and turning them into bomber seats is pretty impressive. Great job Brent!

    People are more inclined to do a nicer job when doing what they WANT to do, instead of what they HAVE to do. You are not alone!

      Your not getting paid enough Or you have the wrong boss.
      I’ve Always strive to do the best work I can. Someone will notice and all of a sudden you have a new boss and better pay.
      At least that’s my experience.
      But I live on a small island where it’s hard to find talent

    It never escapes me when you hold something like the seats and say “it was junk” and in the end it becomes a work of art.

    Brent, gave Pablo a ride, and his ears were like air spoilers in the wind! Cool, great fabricating on the Bomber Seats.

    It’s kind of like the TV show Chopped. You go to a garage sale or to your shed, collect a bunch of ingredients and you make what you need to. Bravo Brent!

    Seats are awesome. Loved the out roll of you and Pablo zipping around in the old jeep.
    Pablo needs his own show!

    Those are the best bomber seats, I have ever seen created out of junk flat stock. As usual, well done. Those of us that have been following the Channel for awhile, do understand why you might be burned out on "T" building for a bit. Thank you for sharing. Be well.

    Love that you played smart with the signs rather than paying a rediculas price for alloy sheet. They even look good with the stickers on the back.

    Glad you did not use the bench seat. We see the end coming and wish it were going further. I hope the winter build is a complete build and something that doesn't get sold or pushed into the lot half done. Take as long as need be. WE enjoy watching your talents and tools.

    OMG !!! those seats are great. well done. i just saw a 1935 chevy pickup all in pieces, but complete for $3500.00 here in Montana. Unfortunately , due to my cancer, i cant afford it. Its on an s-10 frame, so its a roller. But , like i said cancer has killed my dream. So i live my dream by watching you, the MASTER of METAL fab. Keep posting Brent i really enjoy every minute of every Video. Thanks for doing what you do.

    Well you never surprise Brent, you can make anything from nothing, pretty much, great job and great video. I noticed on your ride with Pablo, he seemed a little shy at first, then opened up, then started paying attention to all the low tree branches, smart dog. Take care my friend

    @robertbiggs4934 Před 2 lety

  • @aceadman
    @aceadman Před 2 lety

    I just realized why I LOVE this channel. I mean there are SO MANY reasons and I’ve written them before, but really it must be that I SMILE the entire way through EVERY video. Brent has such a great manner and style. And he laughs so often and so genuinely. And the comments he writes are so sarcastic and funny. It’s just a gas every time and I can’t stop smiling while I watch. It’s literally mood altering in a therapeutic way. Thank you for that Brent.

    Brent you should totally go into a side job of making patio furniture. How cool would it be to have a bomber table with matching chairs. Have the holes on the table top and then put a piece of glass over the top.soooo koooL😎

  • @briankinnear7461

    @roger4375 Před 2 lety

    Good find in the aluminum signs. I mean what were the signs doing in the first place, just sitting beside the road waiting for a guy to put them to use…. They were a God-send, a sign from above. Price was really great….. what I learned from this video is, I will never be as good at fabricating as you are…. Well done, good to see Pablo flapping his ears on the out-tro…. 👌👌👍👍

  • @fabbricaitalianaautomobili5859

    I asked about the mig spool gun last time,
    I didn't realize that i have to have a MIG welder, I hoped to use it with my TIG welder
    So meh, Thanks for saving me the money in buying gun I wouldn't be able to use,
    Cheers uncle

    Love those seats, never thought it could be done, not by me but Brent never lets me down. I liked the idea of hinged seats, make it easy to put these folding car show chairs in easily along with a bagged cooler for those drinks. at cruise in or at car shows. Great video

    Excellent video Brent :) I have idea for Boomer Seats for future on bottom you should get stickers reflecting in light and says Drive a speed limit like 80 KM/H so funny and interesting to pull cushion up see on bum part on ever one use number of MPH on Speedometer use that also number on KM/H on Speedometer use too ! Both front seats do on and think cool ideas try sometime !

    You should mod your break to give it more thickness capacity. Bigger back brace, bigger bearings, more leverage. There's several videos dealing with upscaling cheaper/smaller ones into big models.

    • @HalfassKustoms
      @HalfassKustoms  Před 2 lety

      It actually does have adjustment for thickness or at least that's what I use it for haha

  • @josephwachowskiiii7405

    I wanted to make suggested. The back seat out of. 65 ,or 66 T- Bird. Which I believe you. Already own. That back seat always reminds me. Of the old wrap around diner booths. Like the old. A&W's. Just saying. Have a great day. Joe

  • @BryceStrong
    @BryceStrong Před 2 lety +1

    Brent, always impressed with your very high skill level. It is interesting that you can make road legal cars in this manner. Sadly here in New Zealand we are grossly over-regulated, and the amount of scrutiny and detail required means that any self build is very very difficult and incredibly expensive. Bugger!
    Keep up the interesting and informative builds!
