I build ponds and waterfalls....drive machines....and use the power of the internets to learn stuff. I've been playing with metal for quite a while, learning as I go. Start off welding unimportant stuff....then when you know your welds don't break.... weld stuff like this: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...truck-jump.jpg Because eventually you're going to end up like this: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...hotocopy-2.jpg And that sh!t better not break. |
Made a quick hand brake handle last night.... should work ok. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...whandbrake.jpg |
and building things to be able to go down stuff like this. Talk about a old video I just found on my comp... |
NO WAY!!!!!! OH That is OG fabwork right there.... |
Hahahaha that was funny times. |
I was just thinking how your fabwork has changed, no question good times!!! |
After watching it, I remembered it has no paint on it and I literally thrashed on it every night to try to make that comp and that was first time i'd driven it. |
You are batshit crazy. This is one of the coolest builds I have seen in a long time. |
You gots pm |

Little more detail in the glass fender creation: Started with styrofoam and spray foam: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/IMG_6500.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/IMG_6498.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/IMG_6499.jpg Then many many layers of body filler to get the profile perfect.....then many coats of primer which gave me this plug: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/IMG_6502.jpg Wax it 10 times, add PVA mold release, then gel coat....then start laying glass and resin: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/IMG_6505.jpg after a few days of pissing around....its time to pop the mold: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...s/89af4987.jpg |
Damn that thing is gonna be stupid light. |
Glass fenders are probably 5lbs vs the steel ones that are 10 plus. |
