    Painstakingly time consuming work but great to watch your approach and repair section fabrication using readily available tools! Marvellous. Thank you.

    Looks like a pretty sturdy repair. I'm sure it'll last another 50 years or more. Watching the repairs isn't boring at all, in fact it's really interesting seeing how you tackle it with what you have to work with. I watch this channel because I like old trucks. And old trucks always need sheet metal repair. So not boring at all. This is the stuff I want to see. Gives me ideas working my own old trucks. Thanks for taking the time to show how and filming it.

    Dear TAT
    👍👌👏 Very "weld" done, Sir (video and work). Everything looks nice and very sturdy. Additionally the dent repair went astonishing well. Kudos and congratulations! 🎉 I admire you for pulling through. You are a really diligent man and obviously very busy too. Because of that I have to thank you even more for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
    Best regards luck and health in particular.

    Hi TAT or rather hello artist....
    I don't know how old you are, but congratulations for your crazy talents...
    Méca Tôle Elec Hinge.... In fact in everything related to a restoration you excel... It's really impressive, worthy of a high-end garage from Merco or all the Germans..
    I also do a bit of restoration and especially cleaning and mechanical electrical maintenance but far from your level...
    I'm getting by a little.. I'm from the south east of France, it's a shame we're so far away... I would have been happy to work with you.... Well done and I'm waiting for more....
    Sportingly @+Chrys

    Excellent video and I totally get what you're saying! My project Jimny hasn't progressed for nearly 9 months now as it's waiting for life in general and for me to finish a shed/garage to work in, it is nearly ready to park it inside just a few more bits left to do first, and it's people like yourself making great content like this that keeps me motivated, so thank you!!!

    • @KJOff-Road

    CuSi3 brazing with the MIG-welder would allow you to seal the seams without putting to much heat into the metal.

    I know the struggle of everything taking longer than you expect. I really haven't been able to make progress since your last video, because the cabin is still at the sand blasting shop and I actually don't wanna know how many holes I find after that.

    @FAR2G Рік тому +1

    Love the video, as always. And ye - we'd like to see more of this indeed. I have a question tho - maybe i'm wrong, and missed something, but i've noticed that when you weld in new sheets of meal, you only put individual tacks. Why not do long, continuous welds? For hydro isolation reasons and many other. Is it the heat warping of the metal you are trying to avoid, or the metal is just too thin and you'd probably burn through it, or there's some other reason?

    • @KJOff-Road
      @KJOff-Road  Рік тому +1

      Well, it's a combination of all that, really.
      It also depends on the weld that im doing. if its a part that i overlapping, is actually better to spot weld it, leaving a tiny opening in between the the metal. otherwise moisture will get trapped in there, making it rust.
      And there is also the heat, yes. as it's some thing stuff, putting a lot of heat in one spot, will quickly warp it pretty bad. so i slowly weld it, all arounf the part, to even out the heat.
      And yes, it's also just very easy to burn through this thin stuff :)

    Would a plasma cutter work for cutting out the rusty parts? (Without setting everything on fire)

    • @KJOff-Road
      @KJOff-Road  Рік тому

      It probably could, as it's all pretty thin stuff.
      And having taken everything out of it, theres not much to set on fire.
