Building the Ramp Truck Bed Part 2 - 1959 REO Gold Comet
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- We continue with fabrication of the ramp truck/car hauler bed frame. In this round I get the main structure completed. I also make radiused box section pieces to form wheel arches and apply the same technique to form curved corners for the ramp truck bed.

Fantastic job for one man keep the videos coming we look forward to them from the States my friend🙏
Lookin good man i'm diggin it
Goed werk! Tot de volgende;-))
you are my hero, wish i had time to do such things
Looking good m8 keep up the good work
waw that is wery impresive great work.. cant wait till it stops freesing here so i can get more hours out in the shop
Hey Diff, always fun to watch you work. You're way more ambitious than I am. I would have segmented they wheel arches and called it a day!:) But I do much prefer the nice graceful round arches. Here in Wisconsin, at 7:30 AM, it's a wonderful -14 degrees F. We just got over 20" of snow last week, ending on Saturday morning. Fortunately no snow for about five days so I'll have time to clear everything including the roof. Yes, we have to shovel the roof😢. All three projects are "cool man" and I'm always looking forward to which one you'll be on next. Thanks for the videos and ideas I can steal for my projects!!😅
Div, once again great instructional video.. my opinion Sir is you can build absolutely anything.
As long as there are no electronics involved 😅
Agreed

Looking great you know how to do it right.
Thanks 👍
Wow that’s a lot of welding and grinding but it sure looks great!!
It was!😅
Nice…Awsome !!
pie cuts ah! Dif; what an effort. marvellous; loved it lookin forward to a gr8 2024. loved it need a bit more on the Hudson cheers
Looks good I love it
Thank you!
Diff,enjoy your pro approach to what is on your mind.Your talent speaks for itself. Have a locker day,my friend.
Thanks, you too!
ROCK IT !!!
Yooo!!! Div!! Hope you had wonderful holiday with family and friends!! Enjoyed this video!! Great touch with the transition pieces on the corners... Your right, that little extra makes the difference. Also great idea to pre run that welding wire to use to pull your lighting wires through later on!! This thing is shaping up nicely!!
Thanks boet. Trust all is well your side
Love the mouse line, welcome back, hope Christmas was good. Have a lekka one Div
Great job Diff! .. I enjoy you videos and building techniques..
Thanks 👍
Hey there Div. Thanks for sharing your lifetime of experience. Forest design, engineering, and fabrication is awesome! I am currently working on my own thinking chair! I hope mine works as well as yours.
😁👍
Diff brother I can't get enough of you working on vehicles you are great thank you from the state's West Virginia hillbilly can't wait to get back to your wilfs car
Thanks!
Great to have you back, I have been waiting for you to show up, it's been too long man.😁 Not surprising Your work looks amazing, I'm anxious to see what the bed looks like when you're done. 👍
Hey, thanks!
You do beautiful work my friend, I look forward to every video no matter what yer doing I enjoy listening to your thought process as you work👍😀
Wow, thank you!
I really admire the thorough, well-thought-out process you take to the fabrication of the ramp bed. The beavertail angle determination and rear wheel curvatures were just outstanding. And the tip for bolting and attaching the bed to the frame instead of drilling and welding it to the frame are spot on. I will use these tips when I build my own ramp truck!
Thank you!
You are amazing. Your creativity is exciting to watch and I am learning a lot! Thanks for the education...
Looks like it should be plenty strong enough and got that bit of Div sculpture as well, I like it.
😁👍
Hey Div,
That little bit of extra time really paid off !
Those curves look great.
That little up sweep adds a bit of a vintage flair so it looks like it was built when people had pride in their work.
You did good !
I enjoy seeing stuff like that done and it inspires me to do that kind of work on my projects.
Thank you.
Take Care
Thanks brother!
Excellent job on that ramp truck Dif. Those curves really turned out nice.
Eastcoast Canada in the house. great show
About time you got back to work too much slacking off lol 😁🇬🇸👍
Jip, tell me about it!😅
Good welding school
Wow, you impress me more with every video. This is a really cool build 👍
Thank you very much!
It's a joy watching you work. Going to be such a beautiful ramp truck!
Your attention to detail is second to none.
Great idea on the round corners !! Fits the truck perfectly . Thanks for another , Brother !
Coming along beautifully! Love the curved corners. Can’t wait to see how that chair helped you ponder the solution to the sliding ramp question. 😊👍👍
It’s going to be unique and special. Looking forward to your first haul!
I love when 9ne spends all the time in the world to make sure lay out is on point, just to mess up. How many times have I been there! Love your videos div! Thanks for another one!
Thank all that is holy that you’re back!
😁👍
The ramp truck is coming along nicely 👍👍
It's always a pleasure watching you
It was a pleasure watching you do the engineering and execution of your plan . Im getting more and more impressed with each video. Thank you for taking the time sir.
Thank you very much!
Fantasties... Soos altyd.. Lekker om jou videos te kyk. Verbaas my elke keer vir jou planne en idees. Beste video kanaal vir gear heads. Wens net daar was elke dag so uur van kyk genot.
Wow nice work. Are you going to pick up elephants with that truck. It's certainly going to be strong. Nice curve over the wheel
Howzit Diff. Awesome work on the curves especially on the 100mm to 75mm transition. The truck is turning out to be quite the work of art. Really appreciate the time you take to explain each step. Keep it up bru🤙🤙
Thanks 👍
Nice job again explaining the process as you go.
Cant wait to see what you do for ramps , should be an easy go for you !!😊
Hey Diff. I really love the way that you think out of the box and put your spin on what you are building. Some guys would just weld everything together, but you have to blend everything together.
I appreciate that you take the time to make drawings and jigs and show us how you do things. I love it Brother, from another Mother. Thanks for sharing.👍👍🍁
I really enjoy watching you fabricate what you see in your mind's eye, I have built a few truck beds so I have first-hand knowledge of the extraordinary attention you apply to your work, Talent like yours is in today's world, my friend, Keep doing what you do. I'll keep watching
Thank you!
Welcome back after the holiday break.
Mr Diff you are a character we all love curves you certainly turn the ordinary into something special great work as usual Sir
Thank you kindly!
This channel may not be for the misophonia sufferer, but brou is an _amazing_ fabricator.
Nice curves and a great way of pulling wire in the future, always have to think ahead, great work Dif
Great video and props to the grinder, your little helper, which eats the elephant slice after slice.
I have 5 of those little helpers!😅
Alright very nice. That's going to be one cool truck to go out and pick up other projects in the future. Take care Div.
Boet you have started the year on another level.The bed and the curves that you have fabricated are lekka.
Thanks Alan!
Great job my friend. I really like how you take into account the curves of the cab to do your design instead of just slapping on a flatbed and calling it good. Just cause it’s going to be used for work, doesn’t mean it can’t look good. And this is more than good.👍🏻 👍🏻
Thank you very much!
