    The world needs more coachbuilding content. Love your work

      Definitely! It's there. There are a few amateurs doing it but UA-cam algorithms don't promote it if you're a little channel. Have a look at Gasolini, John's Projects and I am making a coach built Riley Brooklands with wooden frame and aluminium body.

    Always love the welding portions of your videos. In part 6 looks like you had a Dynasty 280 and are now using the Multimatic 220. Nice stuff!

      We added this Multimatic 220 to the quiver and I love it. Has come in so handy with being able to do Tig and MiG from one unit..

    I see you got a new cutting shear. Does it work better? I remember you lamenting the last one's poor performance. Always great to see your videos come in. Keep it up!

      Yep, I finally upgraded! This thing is amazing. The handle took a little getting used to but it cuts smooth as can be. It is made by the German Company “Fein Tools”.

    This is so killer. I'm not sure if you are editing this short on purpose, but I would've loved more detail on the filing of the welds and cleaning up the edges as perfectly as you do. I would love if you would leave more detail in these videos, unless that's the secret sauce that you don't want to get out in the world…

    •  12 днів тому +5

      Hey Michael! Thanks for the feedback. I will keep this in mind on the future vids! There's not much for secret sauce, so we will include more of those details!

    I thought you were gonna make a bezel. Nice gauge cluster.

    Sure looks easy! Lot's of talent, years of experience, the right tools, throw in a dash of patience, there you go. Amazing.

    Gloves? Or are the edges not sharp? Have you determined the cost of the tools necessary to make the frame and body a car? Having the money does not indicate any ability, of course but a determined individual could try probably with quite a bit less.

    •  12 днів тому +2

      I wear gloves when necessary. As for cost of tools.. I built FF001 on a $3,800 Formula Vee with a used $150 MiG welder, $200 English wheel, a tree stump I harvested from my woods and bought materials as I could afford them. I think the real question is how bad someone wants to achieve something. 🏁🏁
