Your welding is getting better. Much better in fact.
Thanks!
Doin' well there Bud, looking like a car now.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
💪
Coming together Captain, no resting on this baby!!👍🇺🇸
I have trained myself not to think about commenting but to just watch and enjoy this project.
👍
“Decent by my standard, not yours” excellent line, the recipient gets to decide if it was a compliment or an insult! 🤣🤣. Really enjoying this build. All the best 👋🇬🇧😀
Thanks!
welds are getting much better, You are a welder!
Thanks!
No Doubt the Welding has come a Long Way. I think they were very nice Welds especially for a Novice as Yourself, I’m Thoroughly Impressed. The whole concept is Ludicrous, the Craftsmanship is Top Notch and Fabrication is Somewhere in the Middle. 😂😂It’s a Train Wreck and I am Super Pumped to See The Completed Rig! Great Vidja, Catch You On The Next One, Keep It Safe Out There Sir
The fun you are having in the build of the side by side and in the process welding skills is great viewing. It's going to be a wonderful fun loving 'paddock basher' as we call them in Aus.
Paddock basher 🤣 love it
You know you could do just about anything you want, Your one of the quickest learners I've ever seen. That's one lucky fire dept up in Evansville.
Thanks!
@@CaptainKleeman Your welcome, and thank you for taking us along. I know you put in a lot hours working ,filming and editing.
Thank for this video today. Can’t tell you why but it was exactly what I needed.
Hope all gets better for ya
@@CaptainKleeman thank you
👍👍👍💙💛❤MECANICA IMPECABILA.FELICITARI CAPTAIN KLEEMAN.💙💛❤👍👍👍

Boy that chair looks almost as high quality as DP's driving chair for Lt. Dan!!
It's pretty fancy
@Captain Kleeman well once you get one that is also "schmacy" then ya know you are big time!!!
I really enjoy your videos Mike. You could make them 2 hours long and I’d never get bored. Keep it up
Appreciate the feedback
@@CaptainKleeman I came close to failing algorithm in 8th grade, but finally got it. (:-)
Agree.

What a way to start the day! "We use Pittsburgh Tools. None of that cheap Snap-on stuff" had me LMFAO!!!
🤣🤣
I could definitely watch a Marathon of your videos. Great content for hours.
Hey thanks!
The RangAru is shaping up! Sledge hammer body work, heat sealed primer, self tapping screws, miles of custom ground welds… Cap’n I can only describe it in the infamous words of Cousin Eddy, “It’s a beaut Clark!”
Unique doesn’t begin to describe this build…. It is a real life Uni-Quorn!!!
PS: I sent an update in your e-mail.
Got your email! Excited for it to get here!
Your welding and fabrication skills are going to give MBTS some competition
🤣
Yes sir I like that one. Man behind the scenes look behind you
My OCD flairs up over that flat tire. Trying to be patient like you are and I understand what's involved. So I just put my thumb over it and continue to enjoy your awesome video's. Kinda like a Kleeman fix!
I think "Perfect Enough" was a missed opportunity for a Channel Name.....
You're like the best friend I never had!! I could watch your videos for hours Cap'n!!!! Thank you for the awesome content buddy!!!
Appreciate ya watching!
Another fine video from the Kleeman Engineering Group.
Thank you!
Sassafras has given it the perfect name.... RangAru 👍
Plenty of heatin', beatin', and weldin' accomplished there Bud !! Good to let it rest and calm down now 😴...... until the next time !!! 💪💪💪
Oh the birds sound so nice. Sorry I missed your last video. I was in a very bad place. I didn't want to be around me, I was so negative. Actually I was fine it was the universe that was all screwed up. So I just waited until one of us spun back into alignment. 🤣😂🤣
you are doing a fantastic job molding those two rigs together... This is so cool cannot wait to it run. You make me laugh at myself because "I have done that ... bring whatcha got, use whatcha can, n mak'm work. ' 🤗
Always glad to see ya Dan!
@@CaptainKleeman you too😎
Nice progress on the Fordaru side x side bud. Thank you Captain.
Hi Cap Im with Diesel Creek on the whole welding bit. He's always saying that a grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain't 😆😆. As always good luck and God bless
💪
A grinder and paint make me the welder I ain't. Its coming together bit by bit. This is a fun project and probably one of the best ways to learn fabrication.
Definitely a fun way to learn
I so much enjoy your modifying of that marrying of two vehicles into one. Can't wait to see a driveable project. Your other endeavors, chicken/goat shelter are coming along nicely. The You Tube Yacht is coming along and looking forward to seeing more vids on that project. Keep it up.
Thanks!
As long as your enjoying yourself and learning along the way then that's just fine.
💪
Keep your rods dry! Don’t let the humidity get to them. Any old ice chest with a 25 watt light 💡 will do to keep them dry. Thumbs up 👍 sent. Don’t use LED, not so hot.
Tank heaters work too
Your proficiency with the acetylene torch has really come along. Very impressive!!!
Thanks!
Some nice stuff over at Benchmark for sure. Those helmets are awesome.
Very impressive, welding has definitely improved, good work captain.😊😊
Thanks 👍
Great progress on your vehicle build Mike. Thanks for sharing.
Mike your UTV SubyRanger project is very cool! Add a mid frame cross support to prevent frame twist on uneven terrain. You’ll need some taller aggressive tread tires for ground clearance and traction.
Just stay tuned
Maybe he wants that frame twist to help with the articulation to get over the obstacles at the OHV trails. 😉
Well the project vehicle is turning out to what you want good job captain
Thanks Gary!
Great Vid again Mike!
Your welding is starting to look pretty neat now you have your settings sorted! You could tell that you really enjoyed the last sill. Look forward to the next episode, Best wishes,’
Jerry, UK
Thanks 👍
Captain, this series is actually turning out to be one of the funest and intereseting series of episodes you're doing.
Yes, the UA-cam yacht, Chicken / Goat barn and other projects are fun and interseting to watch.
But your FrankienBuggy is definitely a hoot and absolutely fascinating how inventive and technical you've been doing it.
Being a "slightly" mechanically inclined person myself, this series is definitely my so called "cup of tea"
I simply can't wait to watch you, your long suffering Wife and kiddies who regularly wonder what Daddies gonna get up to next kiddies roaring around the Captain Kleeman homestead farm laughing like a gaggle of Hyenas.
That will be the crowning achievement of the series.
Glad you're enjoying it!
Good to See You Captn’ Finally some Time to Catch up on my go to UA-camr, guess I’ll watch yours First! 😂🤣 Know You know your the Bestest Mike!
This is a cool project, Cap’n. It’s sculpture you can drive! Promise me you’ll finish it off really nice-within your means of course.
That's the plan!
Really enjoyed your video! Your welding is looking great now. Keep your videos coming! Thanks for sharing.👍🇨🇦
Thanks 👍
Welcome to the fun with purpose homestead. Well done with another one. 👍🐝🌞
Yes, thank you
The Suber10 is coming along nicely Mike.
Thanks!
Great job there Captain. It should last a lifetime. You’re using the finest Pittsburgh Tools, The BFH body fabrication method and welding 2 top quality ferrous oxide impregnated frames together. I think it deserves a 5 star safety rating from NHTSA.
Lol we will see!
That's a party on wheels, (well, kinda on wheels, I feel your pain on internet shopping for parts, especially for "adaptable" parts.) Enjoyed the video, and even enjoyed the reference to "Junkyard wars" which I'd forgotten about, used to watch that back in the day, when I still had television, and never thought to see if those were on UA-cam. Thanks for the video!
Was a fun show for sure!
That's some Mad Max Hill Billy (Bleep) there Mike! 🏆1st🏆Can't wait to see her rip around the property.😎👍Nice! 👉👉I'd be welding today if it wasn't for the rain AGAIN! ⛈⛈These one nice day teasers are really getting on my nerves 🤗🤗At lease I got my cross over exhaust pipe done yesterday.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Discovered I missed this one also. Loved the snap on comment. 😂 wishing you and your family the best.
it's coming along great,can't wait to see the next video 👏👏👏👍👍
Thanks 👍
Your ingenuity will always be something to talk about.keep doing what your doing and caring on.👍👍👍😎😎😎👨🚒👨🚒👨🚒
Thanks Tom
What a fun rig this is gonna be on the homestead.
It's gonna be a good time!
I have been doing a lot of repairs on rusted roll off bins lately. 6011 or 6010 3/32 works well on thin old iron once you get you amps dialled in and puddle manipulation worked out.they will burn through the corruption but have a relatively fast freezing puddle.
Awesome video love watching you innovate. Thank you for sharing your journey with the Subaru!
Thanks for watching!
Wow Captain! I'm impressed, I think. Not sure if it's your creative genius, or you borderline insanity. Keep it up, whatever it is.
Thanks!
Great video Mike, thanks for sharing your work with us. Enjoy the content.
Appreciate ya watching
Nothing like harbor freight tools, they're the best. I call them snap-off tools 🤣
🤣
Really enjoying watching you use that high tech steel bending tool. 🤗👍 This is going to be an epic build and to think when it's finished, you'll have your workshop back just so you can do another project!
Appreciate ya watching
Wow Captain. This is getting there. ready for the next one.
Slow but sure!
Coming along thanks for sharing can't wait till the next one
Appreciate ya watching
👍👍👍👍👍👌Great job on piecing it together using excellent weld prep joint cleaning with the flap disc, nice pace and editing on the video very well done presentation.
Thanks 👍
Mike your getting there.. with the Little Beast ..LOL..Great Video Sir...
Thanks!
Can’t wait to see that thing crab steer! If your winch motor isn’t stout enough may be able to split and route the power steering lines to a small hydraulic motor.
Definitely a possibility
Wow mike your welding is looking great! Nice welds bro! Can't wait to see ranngru running! Lol!
You and me both!
@@CaptainKleeman you like the name I gave it? The rangru lol
I appreciate the skills you've learned and the great shop your in today! Also, more better don't always work on conversation for most. I say mucher, and bestest to offset my vernacular.
Noted! 🤣
Hello Mike. For your welds: If it is bold, it will hold. The more you practice, the better you will get. Then you can challenge MBTS. Have good days!
💪
Going to be awesome when your finished. I'm no welder either but it sticks ok. Practice makes perfect my friend.
You got that right!
Wow Mike what a Frankenstein car! 😉 Great project!
Thanks! 👍
It’s gonna to work just fine just know it Bud great watch Captain 👍👋🇨🇦
The ole Kleeman motors Ranguru prototype is coming right along! Can’t wait till it goes into full production!
💪
Progress, anxious to see final outcome.
You are a visionary with this vehicle. If you haven’t names it yet you should call it Frankenstein or Frankie.
It's FUBARU
nice fabrication, going to give man behind the scenes a run for his money...... DP might be calling you for the next tile plow build......
Hope so!
👍 That baby'll be ready for Daytona before ya' know it!
💪
I can't wait until the next video!! 😃👍
Captain, once again you have amazed me, entertained me and educated me. Keep it up Brother and Stay Safe!!
Thanks, will do!
Those are some good folks at Benchmark, I use em too. The Ranguru is is coming along nicely
Fantastic company!
Good looking weld to me. I bet it will hold.
Enjoy your videos. Look forward to them. But I must say I love Snap on Tools.
Keep up the good work captain nice to it come together
Thanks 👍
hello mike its is randy and i like video is cool and mike i do enjoy the video on youtube thanks mike friends randy
Thanks for watching randy
Thx for the update
👍
Impressive for sure. I can see you zooming around your property and across the bridge.
Gonna be a good time!
Mike your drive and desire to create something is admirable. But as I told you once before. Since you are a novice welder. Try 7014 rod 1/8 in diameter. And don’t rush when you are putting down a weld. Oh finally the cleaner the surface the better.
A fella can't just throw one rod style and one rod size at every weld. Too many variables for that
7018 is a harder rod to weld with.
@@CaptainKleeman no that is true but for a novice welder 7014 is super easy to use. And it starts easier. Unlike 7018 that is harder to restart because of the coating that builds up on the rod tip/end. Lincoln came out with the Excalibur version of 7018 years ago it is supposed to be easier starting. Some guys like it and some don’t.
You're getting closer
Inch by inch!
Thanks for sharing Captain 👍🎅🏻
You bet
Neat stuff. Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎
Thanks for watching
Looking good. Quite a project sir
Thanks 👍
Rangeroo! Heehee… it is coming along
FUBARU!
HEAY, this frakinranger project will be fantastic or it will turn on its maker . You have the torches. I see pitchforks in your future. Looking for a MULTI purpose welder ? AMAZON ! ALL IN ONE MIG PLASMA cutter TIG for less . Great video. Thanks😁
And you will getting a wider stance in the back with the spacers. Keep pushing and it will be done before you know it.
💪
Great video Captain.
Thanks!
I love the Suburuck project!
Thanks!
Hi Hi Captain, good morning from Jamaica 🇯🇲. Yeah let's go build the custom Subaru/Ford off road side kick 😂😂
Morning!
That welding chair is also a pretty good stepping stool.
Multi use
Love your philosophy and your ingenious ideas the way you go about things is amazing Love your content and your videos are amazing you tube yacht is a brilliant idea been in the building trade for over 40years and its the best thing I have seen done don't see much of those here in Scotland your chicken coupe is like a holiday home really nice can you let me know how I can see you make your maple 🍁 syrup be interesting to watch keep up the good work and keep the videos coming 😀 hi from Kilmarnock Scotland
My wife will have some syrup making videos soon!
Heat it and beat it!
It's the only way!
Awesome video BUD!!
Thanks!
It might not be dirt perfect but it will be Kleeman perfect
Exactly!
your arc welding on that lighter metal is no easy task plus you need a big mig welder for heavy metal. great job and well done. cheers captain.
Thanks!
Looking good keep up the great work.😁👍
Thanks, will do!
U remember that monster truck that was called backwards bob i think of it every time I c foroo lol I love it captain
