    PLEASE READ, I have never met Matt and like all of you I love his work and look forward to every video.
    If Matt is gong to make this work he is going to need more Patrons. So far he has 51 and that is a start.
    I challenge any real car guy or gal to anti up for a minimum of 5 bucks a month. Think about it.
    You spend more than that on a single fancy coffee or beer and don't get much at all for it.
    Doing the math I think he needs at least a 1,000 folks at 5 bucks a month.
    As the old saying goes: Anything worth having is worth paying for.
    The link to his Patreon account is just right above this comment section.
    Thanks for reading!

  • @simoncarter5951

    Those gussets that go between the X in a roll cage are commonly referred to as taco shells or taco gussets which is a pretty good description of what they are really.

    Holy mother of gusset. Loving the dimple die trick and the ruler trick. (Q max dies? I used a q max hole punch cutter to get nearly a kilo out of my 340 turbo tailgate and it seemed a nice bit of kit). Here's one you might know but if you don't it's awesome. Metal splinter in the finger? Vernier calipers. Better than the tweezers that nobody ever has in the workshop. Works tip top every time.

  • @69hytek
    @69hytek 5 років тому +1

    Great vid and quality work. No surprise there :)
    TIP: weld the bolt you're using for the dimple die to the edge of a bit of thick flat plate. It should be roughly the width of your vise jaws. This will give you a much more secure purchase in the vise, as well as the ability to turn it sideways (better body positioning & less awkward).
    Good luck n keep up the great work
