I saw this technology on a restoration blog on Jay Leno's Garage. Building automotive parts where existing parts are unavailable. So happy to see the P-35 making progressing. It's one of the rarest airplanes you've got. Please keep us posted as you go with regular updates. Thanks Kermit!
Speaking of Leno, and the wingtip mentioned ... if the parts are mirror-image, once it's scanned, it's pretty easy to "flip" them in software. Leno's been making tail-lights, door handles, etc. where they only have one for one side.
@@michaelblum4968 I saw Jay having a Water Pump and something for one of the steam cars being scanner. Sure is nice to have the technology available.
This guy really knows his stuff and this was fascinating to watch but he could not go two sentences without mentioning how much something costs or how expensive something is. He certainly is running a business where he is definitely watching his overhead.
Thank you I thought it was me but that bothered me too
Very interesting how new technology like this scanning equipment can help manufacturing complex stuff you need just one or two of cheaper, easier and faster. Good there are experts out there doing just this. Great project btw.
This is fascinating! There are a couple of Vals on the West Coast and in Texas that would be prime scanning fodder, especially if you can un-deform the scanned parts!
Wow I love it❤ Jackie Cochran is smiling.
Great video with amazing tech and technicians at work. Only problem is Kermit endlessly talking over them while they're trying to take the scan! Nothing more distracting when you're trying to do a precise job. Look forward to more vids on the Seversky, the wing looks stunning..Well done everybody.
So glad you got into this Kermit! This is what I messaged you about on facebook, this is going to be priceless in the preservation of this history beyond our years! A lot of your things are one of kind, and the more you do the better! Thanks you so much!
Yes, you are definitely a technological leader. Thanks for your input.
It's great this video , high Technologies updating old planes. Fantástico.
Thanks for another great video Kermit.
This video was extremely interesting. Great technology this firm is using to make pieces for your wings. Was super interesting seeing how they do this.
Will speed up getting your pieces made. Thanks for showing this technology to us.
Great for restoration of older aircraft.
Thanks Kermit.

As it relates to IP, the overriding principle is that its creator, developer or inventor is the owner.
love that scanner and the result. great explanations too.
This was fascinating. Both the technology and the talk. Thanks for sharing, Kermit.
Very interesting indeed, 👍🤔
Incredible tech. Thanks Kermit!
Scan technology is used in the automotive stamping industry. The resultant scan data is a point space connected by a triangular grid. This geometry can be converted into surface data in a CAD system. Then, the surfaced part can be developed into a stamping tool, to manufacture the part from aluminum sheet.
Everytime he says AWESOME we drink 🍻
Awesome!
But....are you drinking Naked in Jamaica? 😉
Kermit…buy the tech and keep it all in house….those parts are too rare to ship. Cheers from Australia
That David and Mia scanner team, is a high quality product. David sure knows how to get the best out of this new technology and in combination with CNC and 3D printers, which is best to use. The latest tech. with metal and ceramic 3D printing processes, could take fabrication to a whole new level.
You gave me a good laugh Kermit, about scanning new body parts. Nice one. Hope your day goes well. Thanks for the video.
This part down here doesn't work like it used to. Can we make the replacement a little bigger?
Thank you for sharing.🙂🙂
Good stuff. Thank you.
Always loved that aircraft
Regarding Kermit's quip about politicians in California: the same observation could be made of politicians in HIS home state.
Very good
O P-35 tinha uns vazamentos congênitos nos tanques integrais das asas,foi um dos motivos que o levou a ser substituído pelo P-36 da Curtis, e não teve iteração aperfeiçoada (As "Encarnação" Final deu origem ao P-47 ), mas quem conhece a História da Aviação sabe que o Italiano REGIANE Re-2.000 e praticamente o MESMO AVIÃO, que não foi adotado pela Régia Aeronáutica, mas liberado para Exportação, sendo que a Hungria comprou alguns e fabricou sob licença (Com motor derivado da Gnome et Rhône Mistral Major sob licença ) o Re-2.000 com algumas mudanças, em parte por causa da falta de peças Italianas, entre elas, os tanques de asa originais, substituídos por outros menores mas com capacidade total igual, essa mudança teve como resultado benéfico inesperado a SOLUÇÃO DOS VAZAMENTOS DE COMBUSTÍVEL nas asas. Se está RECONSTRUIDO o P-35, acho que essa modificação feita pelos Húngaros deveria ser introduzida.
Kermit, you undoubtedly have one of the most far flung "rolodexes" in the world- and what a great community of resources, as many of your vendors are already familiar to each other. For me, as neat as it appeared, I think I am a couple of more "revisions" and New Thoughts before I can afford it! But Dave and his wife have already started many non airframe projects with it as a base= and from the looks on both of their faces, they are making money faster than the bills on it. Just a thought for an "operator with his own landing field and hoard of "expert refinishers" that need to occasionally get paid. It would also give you a quick way to determine if a landing gear was "potholed" on a grass runway- it could be measured in place, with our a major disassembly. And you have great connections to most of the international airframe resto businesses. Kermit, as nice as owning and operating museum is, operating one that can actually pay it's own bills is nicer! I cannot wait till next week when some new marvels or an old marvel get unravavelled!
I wish he’d purchase the Ju-87 Stuka that the Heritage museum was working on. Since they closed down I haven’t heard a word about it. Anyone know where that project ended up?
One of the Walton family bought it. IIRC the plan is to reopen the facility in Washington soon, and then in a year or two move the collection to a newly-built facility in AR. I think the Stuka went with the rest of the collection.
@@GBooth The Walton family member who bought Paul Allen's collection is getting pretty old...I'm afraid in a few years when he passes, we will be going through all this again...heirs rarely have the passion for this stuff, they just want to sell, sell, sell....what is sadly lacking is some younger guy in his 30's or early 40's with the passion, and the disposable income, to take on this stuff...I'm almost 58 myself, I am concerned about the future of this historic type stuff...even the old car preservation/historical hobby is in trouble..not enough guys like Jay left around...all the younger guys want to do with them is cut them up and modify the heck out of them so they don't even remotely represent what they were when new, the history is lost...not sure what will happen in the aviation field...probably most of the current airworthy ones will end up in government owned/funded museums as static displays...
KERMIT remember Bear Brandon . I worked with him in the 80 s BLESS HIS SOUL . GREAT STUFF.
Lots of projects. When will the next one be completed? Can't wait.
Will the P35 be flyable? What is the solution for the Wet Wing design of the Seversky P35a? That being one of the largest defects and maintenance problems of the aircraft.
Combine this with a metal sintering 3D printer and you could make any kind of part in metal, like Adam Savage did for his 3D printed (in titanium) Iron Man suit from his Savage Builds TV show.
Cool..but Frauleins are asking for 108 updates..ya' see they always dreamed about the hot hot date with the dashing Manfred in his silver 108..
Coming next week
Future craftsmen's skillset: Operate a laser scanner and translate its results into 3D printer software and click print.
another UA-camr channel that uses scanning etc, is RetroPower - you really should see what they do with scanners.
boy, that was a whole truckload of airplane goodness.
riddle; when is something aerodynamic not aerodynamic?
answer; when its strapped to a flatbed trailor. lol.
Kermit know the deal with California politicians 😂
But then what does this system mean in terms of Parts Manufacturing Authority?
Hawker Tempest V action please
Who's Stevo?...
🇺🇸👍👍👍
Seriously, I cant keep track. These videos have become just a random aircraft part showcase with some guy with no known background building something for Kermit.
That takes years.Oh heres John, he's building me a 109 with parts from Gallands 109. Lets check back with him in 4 years.
That's what happens when you have a lot of money concerns and people around you how wonderful you are
OMG!
This guy with the scanner is a scammer
