Minibike BUILD Ep.2 - Frame Fabrication
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2024
- Fat tire minibike build from scratch. In this video: minibike tube frame bending and fabrication. This TB-1000 tube bender has proven itself as a great helper. Before having this I was constricted to using already existing bent tubes but now I have a complete creative freedom when it comes to tube frame fabrication. With this minibike tube frame I've gotten some practice in and feel quite comfortable with bending tubes. This series will follow. I hope you enjoy!

whats the tire size ? and brand ?
22x11-8" ATV trailer wheels. Don't recall the brand at the moment.
I'm just a paralyzed guy from Southwest Arkansas in the town of 1300 people and let me tell you how awesome it would be if you did a build on a off-road wheelchair. That would be so awesome! And I feel like it would get you a lot of views
Engineer + Mechanic + Machinist + Welder + Creator + Videographer
Such a talented personality! Best luck !
Cheers!
@@DonnDIY Молодец! Так держать!
Dude if I ever had a fabrication company I’d want u as the leader. Smart, your very just smart
Thank you for the job offer but unfortunately I'm not interested.😬🤭🤣
I can make u American , I really do have a fab shop. lol oh and I know I’m joking nobody wants to be a American lol
Wow wow wow. Perfect editing and perfect welding 😊
Dude you can build anything. Excellent workmanship. ❤
One of my favorite channels! 😎
Bravo, non ci hai fatto aspettare molto...
Hai delle idee sempre fantastiche, una manualità ineccepibile!!! You are the Best...
Superb pipework.
Right tackle, right skills, right vision. Awesomeness.
That's looking pretty awesome. Thanks for sharing. 👍
You always have something interesting on the bench. Thanks for keeping us entertained! Love to see a follow-up video of your past projects and how they are holding up. That ATV build is definitely one for the highlight reel!
Nice to see welds and bending done correctly and with precision, excellent work i ready enjoyed the video
Your fabrication skills are off the chart.
Oh my word, you and mini me are going to have so much fun on this beauty.
It’s coming along nicely Donn!
Fantastic skills 😊
There’s something really fun about mini bikes, they have a way of bringing you back to being a kid, the simplicity of an engine and two wheels 😊👍
Cheers, Mike! I've watched your video where you and your brother buy and ride minibikes several times now. I hope to do the same with my brother but on homemade minibikes. I'm planning to build three of these fat tire bikes (two of them off the air) so our father can also join us.😄 We're all small kids in our hearts.
@@DonnDIY Right on! You guys are going to have a blast (Fun Times) on those mini bikes 😊👍
Mista CHOP is back! Great video as usual.
Love what your doing. And you do it so perfectly
Moving right along on the FAT TIRE MINI BIKE build. Looking great !! Thanks for sharing Donn. Lil Man will enjoy that rig around there. Stay safe, Fred.
A bit too big rig for the little fella still. So I'm gonna use it until he's of age.🤣
Great start! Awesome bike! 👌👍
Looking badass!
Cannot wait for the next episode. Excellent work 😊
Cheers! Hopefully I can work on this project upcoming week and make a third episode 🤞🤙
Way cool, Donn. One of your best . . .
Mr Chop✓ Tube bender✓ CRC cutter✓ and that rounding bit✓ . . . way, way cool.
Brilliant work my man!
Looking good great build 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That bike will be a real beast!
Дуже цікавий проект! Успіхів!!!👍🇺🇦
Thank you!🙏
Wow, Donn. What an impressive build. I would have never guessed that the steel frame was actually a very intricate fixture jig. Great video, and keep up the great work
Wieder mal eine super Arbeit. Ich sehe Deine Videos schon länger, aber Deine Genauigkeit begeistert mich immer wieder. Ich freue mich auf Dein nächstes Video. Viele Grüße aus Deutschland.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Viele Grüsse aus Estland🙏
What an interesting project you started, now I will look forward to the continuation of the construction of a cool swamp motorcycle.
I watch your videos before I go sleep. love it ...
That is some serious tube bending & notching right there! 👌🍻 Looks like Mr. Chop got some new “teeth” too!
It's always great seeing another DonnDIY video. I've been waiting. 😎
Thank you very much🙏🙏🙏
Какой интересный проект ты начал, теперь буду с нетерпением ждать продолжение постройки крутого болотного мотоцикла.
That bender sounds like I do when I wake up. Anyway, very nicely thought out and the use of your simple jig has made your assembly work come out awesome! Excellent craftsmanship as usual Donn and I look forward to seeing this project completed and ripping around the yard!!!
Yup, I sound like that too😛
Looks really great, very nice build so far..thanks for the upload
Thanks for watching!
This thing is looking awesome! I can't wait to watch you rip this thing! And man, that jig is so nice, you might as well go into business building these things! Donn-DIY Monster Mini Bike!
Monster Mini sounds great 👍😄
Make some cool art and put that on the side! This thing is going to be a bruiser for sure! I can't wait to see you ripping it!@@DonnDIY
This all looks to me like a preparation for the Batmobile!
Batmobile would be an awesome project!🤔
Fantastica la forma que esta tomando el proyecto . 💪👍
A monster mini-bike. That is so cool!!
I think so too😄
This is awesome project...you are very talented....keep up the great projects
wow!!! precious bro!!
this is gonna be a sic lil bike !
Man that's impressive! I watch all your videos and me and my dad we're laughing talking about how lost we would be would be trying to do all that fabrication and the damn wiring. Hats off for you and your patience LOL
major workshop envy, that man cave is stacked out with all the awesome tools! If anyone needs lazer cut wheel hubs, engine mount plates and general weld on tabs etc we got a load produced that could make your fat bike build more acheivable if you don't have access to lazer cutters and mills etc.
Hienoa työtä! Itsellä vastaava projekti.
Kiitos!🤗🙏
That is going to be great fun to ride!! Nice work Donn.
I hope so too. Thank you for watching.🙏👍
Super Awesome!!!!!
thats gonna be one serious sturdy motorbike !
cheers ben.
Let's hope so, I weigh 100kg / 220 lbs naked. But I'm sure you didn't want to know that. What I'm trying to say is that this bike has to endure my presence.🤣
Can't wait to see the piece finished...👍👍👍👍😎😎
Yup, I already want to rip around on it. But I'm afraid I'm gonna be disappointed in the preformance of this industrial 200cc 6,5HP engine.😛
Looking good bud
Neat and chubby little feller!
That one will be superb as a light "assrelocater" around the farm😂😂
Creative as usual
Very nice welding.
good work
You can mass produce them for friends and family with that jig.. very cool!
You make it look easy :D
Great job so far , you never fail to amaze me with your skill and ingenuity. I particularly love the use of the mill to create the "birds mouth" on the tubes with the correct angle , orientation and distance relative to each other 👏👍. Bravo , keep up the good work.
Using a mill is a bit of an overkill though. A simple notcher would do the job.👍
Mock up at the end look awesome.
Yea baby🤙🤙🤙
Nice job looks awesome
Cheers!🤙
nice project ❤❤❤
Thanks!
Thank you my man! Much obliged!🙏🙏🙏
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼…………………………………………………….Even built a frame jig………………………For a mini bike……………………………Ok, I’m impressed. LOL I should have expected no less! And you are building your own forks. 😳 You are serious when you say you are making something from scratch.
wow nice looking machine
Monster Mini Bike ! 😃😃😃😃 Good Job Mr.DiY.👍
Thank you🙏🙏🙏
You are definitely one of the cool kids
Brilliant
@8:40
I think that’s the step many people forget when they’re trying to bend parallel bends.
I’ve seen many put the angle finder on the pipe but not confirm the level of the bender. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fun!! Project.
You are very inspirational! Now I will go make something. 🙂
This is an urge I resist on this channel. Would be just the excuse I need to buy more tools..
Your tube work gives me a lob on
🤣
Perfekt!😍🤗
I love learning from your videos, your projekts are super presice. Maybe you would build a full sized terrain bike?
buen trabajo amigo
Better be only one, cus you can't compete with Chyna. lol Your so creative that i see 2mil subs by next year...Brilliant.
Вот таких блогеров как Вы нашей планете не хватает...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I just saw you on Quantum Tech...nice.
Awesome
Don't have to worry about her getting stuck in the mud!❕❕Maybe put some snow chains on for the snow and ice as well.
Yup, perfect machine for a look-around throughout the property.🤗
Hello Donn good job looking good
Cheers🙏
Круто, 2 часть прибыла.
👍
The tyres become the suspension 👍
This is one awesome build. Like your attention to detail is amazing. I'm just wandering why you didn't add any suspension, like a rear swingarm? As a kid I've ridden the fat tire bikes. They'll go about anywhere , but really bouncy. Back then it didn't bother me , but now older , and several back surgeries it would be Ruff , Ruff. But given a chance to have this bike I sure wouldn't complain.
I grew up around a small engine shop. Dad also had a fab shop. I , a long with neighborhood kids built "deathtrap" bikes from scrap. At that time none of us had the skill level you have. What we put together, we would work on for a couple days to ride until something broke , and then weld more crap on to it. Finally, they looked like Mad Max vehicles 😂. But it kept us from listening to jazz music , and turning into Riff Raff 😁😂😆🤣
I've always wondered about tires only no suspension type minibikes, now I'm trying one out myself. After building it.👍
so f... cool!!!!!!!!
BRRAAAAP!! 👍💪
It looks like it will go anywhere at any time.
During the bandsaw build [approx 5yrs ago] is when I first thought "Donn isn't your average DIYer." Fact is, he's of the same caliber or exceeds many who do this for a living. You've come a *loong way* in 5yrs-looking forward to the next 5. *Question:* it's clear the engine is set to the left [24:42]-is this to facilitate a ''jack shaft?'' God bless.
🙏🙏🙏
V8 minibike, leeeeeeeesssssss gooooooooooooo!!!!💪💪💪💪💪💪
Well done man!
This is starting to take some very nice shapes.
I'm curious about the end result :)
Cheers! Let's hope it'll be functional as well. I want to use it at the homestead for hauling my butt around from point A to B so I don't have to start up any other bigger vehicle. I will probably be disappointed in the 6.5-7HP petrol engine though...🤔
Ein Meister in allen Fächern😀👍x100
🙏
It look badass awesome :)
Cheers!
Only one wheel drive? Come on Donn!! 😜
😛
Nice head-tube jig design. You set it up with it resting against the frame jig so you could just drop it down and everything would be in place when you were done with it. It was not obvious what you were doing when you started.
Dude took a bunch of pipe. Bent it like a bunch of noodles. And made a bike. METAL ARTIST.
It's starting to look like a bike!
I think that
you should put that into production. You have a money maker there.
Лайк прожал🎉 ты молодец🎉
It'll be interesting to see how you address the gas tank fill cap issue. Unless you just let it go like it is. However, it looked from the video like it would be a pain to fill with gas.
No worries there's plenty of room to fill it using a proper nozzle.👍
Nice build 👍 I have dreamed something similar. Same tires 125cc atv engine 3+R semiautomatic gearbox. Long gargo basket in the rear and option for track and ski for winter.
I’m very interested in this build, I like motorcycles 😂
I get the feeling you have done something like this before, great looking bike...
Bending tube for the first time like this.👍
