    I'm glad I stumbled onto this video. I just bought an android car stereo and for better visibility I'm mounting it on top of my dash. On the 98-02 forester there's a storage spot on top of the dash where I removed and add the stereo. I tried to wrap fake leather on Styrofoam, but it looks bad. So. I am going for abs plastic and use the heat torch I already have to build the housing.

    I have bought a 1/4” of Blown pvc at 24”x 48”. Having a hard time finding a threaded insert for it, to mount my amps to. On the inside of my 2014 jeep Cherokee limited. I am running a kicker zx1500.1 and a Rockford fosgate prime r300-4. I have 1/2 of your tools in your toolbox. I don’t have the drill bits for threading yet. But I do have the threaded installer and threaded inserts installer for an impact driver, that are both from your tool box. I’m expanding a little at a time. Father of 2 girls, 17 and 2. The oldest loves stereo systems. So I saved and got what I needed to install my system this summer when she visits from so cal. I live in Maine. I plan on going to the back seat install for the amps. Full back seat install. The nugget rides in the middle in a rear facing seat. Have kicker cs speakers all around. 6x9 in rear doors, 6 1/2 components up front, both off the Rockford amp, eventually. The 3 1/2 kicker cs up front in the corners is off the stock deck. I will be running 3 kicker 12” doc 4ohm l7’s off the kicker amp wired at 2.45 ohms. Just trying to perfect the install! Any suggestions on the inserts for the amps? Using what I have? Or should I mount them in a different area? I don’t have the premium system. Or should I save for 1/2” abs plastic ? My goal is to have a system wired just like yours!! This time around I will minus the braided covers on the wires. I can add on later, when I find my color scheme in stock. Black and yellow. Steelers and Boston Bruins colors. Hopefully you can help. (207) 800-5920

    flush cutters are a life savor, but for anyone who doesn't want to spend the $$ for a good set, or in a bind at home. My $200 tech tip. Use rounded toe nail cutters. I keep a few sets around just in case I need to do zip-tie work. Puts a really smooth round edge on it that wont send you to the ER

      Bosses need boss attitude when workers aren't into their job. Those workers should re-home themselves to spare everyone the BS.

    You can cut ABS with a jig saw with a pendulum action. Also set the speed down. I use my festool Carvex PS 420 jigsaw to rough cut ABS and 22mm MDF often. The cut is very efficient and the jigsaw blade doesn’t heat up much which results in the blade lasting a long time and plastic doesn’t melt back together.

    versus HDPE ??
    Which one for large amp rack? I'm thinking HDPE (3/8") (bcuz HDPE is what Menards has) but my first amp rack I used 1/4" ABS and it worked well but only found on Amazon and their extra delivery charge for this stuff is like $7 p/ foot. (regardless if a Prime member or not). Menards is $99 for 4'x8' sheet of 3/8" and $59 for 1/4" versus the $50 for a 2' x 4' 1/4" sheet.

  • @DogTog

    OK I watched this twice, and they are never clear which plastic is which in their tests... very odd. He starts out by saying that he mostly uses ABS, but then seems to be selling PVC as doing better in each test... but he only refers to the 2 plastics as "his" and "mine" and there are no labels, so I didn't really learn much from this.
    He showed 2 types of threads, which was great, but didn't identify either one of them, just calling them both "this guy here"... HUH?
