good song
Thanks. I just came across it earlier this year.
Japanese Dryer is good to make it dry quicker, even in cold weather. You don’t need to much so the ratios won’t be effected.
Thanks for the suggestion! I am already planning how I am going to paint the inside of the cab and it will be even colder by then. I will definitely check out Japanese Dryer
Hey really awesome build. Why didnt you epoxy primer the frame ?
Thanks for watching and the question. The product I am using is designed to paint directly to metal and rust, and I wasn’t sure how effective it would be if I used it over primer. I guess time will tell if I made the right decision.
What is the parts supplier?
@@CraigandBrendaLargent I bought them from Paul Horton’s Welder Series. Here is their website: welderseries.company.site
I haven't tried it, but I hear white vinegar can be used tto remove mill scale.
@@jayinmi3706 thank you for the suggestion. I will keep that in mind next time I am doing metal fab. If it works then I would be a low cost option.
Looking good!
@@tobyjazz42 Thank you!
Ha! "Frames of Reference"
You gotta teach me to tig!!
Happy to show you the basics. Time behind the mask is how you get better at it.
Welcome to my latest video on my minitruck project that is taking me almost 20 years to complete. Still focused on the suspension and it getting closer to being done every day.
Guys will see this and think *Hell yeah*
Thanks for the comment. It was amazing to see the suspension working for the first time.

What grit are you using around 21:15 to smooth that down?
I am using a 60 grit 6" stick on sanding disk
This video really teaches me about how to build a car
Thank you. I hope you continue watching the series to see the build finished.
