My age: close 52, and since my childhood I love all the VW family and this awesome movie: 2001 space odyssey, that is why I love your video. Double love!!
You know when you finish the Funky Truck that Rotisserie is just going to be in the way. If you need a place to store it I can probably find some room in my shop. :) Rotisserie Envy!!!
Amazing! I need this! I'm about to take my bus entirely apart, and fix it up. (She stopped running a couple of months ago. Can't figure out the issue, so it's time to fully restore it.)
That's not a vw bus,...it's a Pan Am shuttle lining up with the space station! I'm going to have to dig out my dvd and watch that again,...just for that scene! :)
For those of you that have purchased a VW bus or truck with the round lenses, here is something you should be aware of; do not over tighten the tail light mounting screws as the original lenses are glass and they will crack. Also these lenses were rare in 1989 when I owned a 1960 crewcab, to thwart theft put a second nut on the screw
There's a company in Lincoln, Nebraska called AutoKraft that manufactures and markets these. Only theirs comes with brakes on the rollers so you can stop the vehicle at any position to work on it. They are very reasonably priced!! I don't work there, but they are restoring a car for me!!
I found you on the samba forum.... awesome thread! I just got on second page now :) good job! and I am deaf ... it would be nice if you turn on subtitles so I will know what you say in the videos, thanks
Why not make the rotisserie possible to dismantle? Like making the support legs bolt on and making the main hoop in 2 halves ? I think that would make it easier to both take off after the car is finished and storing it. :)
Nice :) How do you hold/lock it in position? Any worries about front-to-back movement/load? Lastly, I feel like there should be at least one attachment point from the top of the vehicle to combat pull out forces on your hoop from the bottom attachment points...
Hello Glideking, I would like to build a rotisserie like the one you made , would it be possible to tell me the diameter you had the steel rolled ? I live in England are are about to restore my 1966 camper. She is in a very poor state and requires a full chassis change. If I can make a rotisserie like yours and add some front to back support beams I think it will make restoration possible. Thanks Andy.
amazing fabing. i see no track guides for it to stay on the rollers without coming off, its very well balanced. i still dont see why it doesnt fall of the track whats keeping it on?
Take note the circles are on the wheels the wheels are welded on a channel , the circle run though the channel that keeps it all in line for the wheels .............
Well that depend on what type of car your building ,, on the VW they look about 7 to 8 ft tall just guessing at that ...... you make it as big as you want as long as it don't touch the car and you have enough room to work around it ....
I'm thinking about building one for a Dodge Fargo Panel Truck, but I'm worried about the weight and like you said.. the moment it needs to turn or roll over. If it rolls over and swings out of control, that would be a pain in the but. I've also got another idea about having it geared with an electric motor, but not sure if that's going to cost too much.
Hi! My name is Ronaldo and I'm from Brazil. Congratulations on the video. I would like to make a rotisserie like yours. Could you give me some tips? What is the thickness and diameter of the arc metalom?
glideking thanks a lot!! I´ve read the hole thread and now I appreciate your work more and more, VW couldn´t have doe it better! If I ever will be in SF I would like to see yuor SC in original. Greetings from Germany, Dirk
+Andrew Pearce The whole story is documented here www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/view... Mount your bus high as you can for a decent balance. People have used smaller rings or mounted bus lower but they are bottom heavy and harder to rotate. The front ring must be mounted forward or rearward to clear the doors. You must be able to r&r the doors for restoration. There is a rotisserie thread on TheSamba.com that is full of opinions!

What a masterpiece! (And thanks for the couple of Strauss's who accompanied the turning!) With your skills you will have this old bus in fine shape!
Necessity is the mother of invention, and this is a classic example. Very well done!
Man I really miss watching new vw restore videos from you :' (
Love the Strauss and the 2001: A Space Odyssey reference. Great filmmaking. Oh, and lovely work on the rotisserie:)
Hi Glideking !!! Just wanted to say how great your tool is. It works perfectly !!!
My age: close 52, and since my childhood I love all the VW family and this awesome movie: 2001 space odyssey, that is why I love your video. Double love!!
Very useful, I've seen this done with a tank, makes welding so much easier!
If there was any mice hidding I think that was a hint to leave ahahaha looking forward to this build
Gotta love that bandsaw. Helluva time-saver.
As soon as I learn to weld/get materials/etcetera I want to make one for my '70 bug body!
excelent job and a very cool idea. this really is a video that many of us wish it was a complete series on tv. congrats.
He's a badass. Love the video of him digging that out of the ground.
A terrific idea brought to fruition aND the music back suspense was wonderful!!! Thank you for you swnse of humor!!

2001 Space Odyssey sound track is so relevant, and funny. LOL
+Tim Wall Dave I can't let you in through the pod doors. Dave ? Daisy, Daisy give me youuuur annswerr toooo.....

Love the music. 2001 Space Odyssey.. love the humor. Great skills you have.
Hal...Hal....open the pod doors Hal........Hal
I got a double cab im doing love the tinker bell music and killer Rollie you made
Just laughed out loud here at work. OOPS! PERFECT music! Good work.
Isn't that the way it is, you end up having to build your own tools. I love the 2001 space odessy
@4:29 ...felt like i was in a space odyssey...ship floating around. cool deal.
I think i have to admire what youre doing , its heroic to me.
Now it's much easier to open the pod bay door!
A thing of beauty!
Incredible idea. You make me laugh a lot with the 2001 OST.
Glad you had a laugh. I had a blast making that video.
Kurt
Love the 2001 Space Oddesy Music!

I ask them if a VW bus will fit. They don't answer.

That is a good job buiding that rotisserie, you have a good web page.

Amazing work man! Wow! =)
You are a genius!
Nice :)

I’m getting dizzy. Lol. Love the rotisserie

David R well it's freaking awesome, how tall are they?

Excelente Kubrick reference! :D
That was very awesome
Great fabrication, well done. You should have gone with the Average White Band ''Lets go round again'' for the music though!
Hmm i think you have done this more then 1s. Good job. Love the video.
Hello Mr. GlideKing, can you please share where these rotisserie plans are located at please?
Hi! My name is Ronaldo and I'm from Brazil. Congratulations on the video. I would like to make a rotisserie like yours. Could you give me some tips? What is the thickness and diameter of the arc metalom?

Veel mogelijk met het busje
Here Brasil.congratulations good job
Brilliant and clever parody of Stanley Kubrick's visual masterpiece.
nice demonstration,and thinkit can be a bit dangerous when center of gravity is too high i guess?
Awesome story of your work!!!
Can you tell me what diameter the rotisserie is and what dimensions the profile is?
