Homemade Tubing Bender Dies from the CNC Plasma Cutter
We have a handy little metal bender in the shop, but it really only works well for flat bar and strap. We need to bend some tubing for an upcoming project, so we decided to make our own tubing bender dies, using the CNC plasma cutter. Is it very practical? No. Is it easy to set up? Not really. Is it easy to use? Not by a long shot. But does it work? Yes it does!
Okay, I know it's silly to assume that having a CNC plasma cutter is an easy, cheap alternative to buying a set of dies. And we agree, this is kind of a useless project unless you have access to the proper tools. However, we were just curious if stacked layers would actually produce a useable result, and it totally did! In fact, th...

Building a Slot Car Racing Pit Box!
Просмотров 14 тыс.3 года назад
Our neighbor, Dave, (the coolest neighbor ever) asked us to make him a slot car racing pit box. After doing some R&D to figure out what the heck a pit box was, we dug in. Dave provided us with the necessary dimensions for each of the compartments, so for the most part, it's made to his specifications. Using his drawing, I hopped on the computer and made a fairly in-depth set of plans to work fr...
Slot Car Racing Adventure!

Our neighbor, Dave, has asked us to build him a slot car racing pit box. We happily agreed, but then quickly realized we had no idea what we were doing! To get better acquainted with slot car racing, we decided to take a little field trip to a local race. Long story short- it was awesome! Not only did we learn a lot about the various types of cars, classes, and racing, but we got to look at som...

In this episode, we're FINALLY back on the Jeep project. We've sorted out most of the electrical gremlins, and we made some new heavy-duty battery cables. Also, we take a little road trip to get a tailgate from a fellow full-size Jeep enthusiast. And, we now have video evidence of Sam vacuuming! If you're working on an old Jeep, you need to visit this site: oljeep.com/ There's a lot of great us...
Custom Nintendo Switch Case from an Ammo Can!

The Nintendo Switch is an amazing, versatile gaming system, with its greatest feature being portability. You can just pop it out of the dock, and take it with you. But what if you want to bring all of your accessories, extra controllers, grips, cables, and chargers on a road trip? Simple! You build a needlessly complicated carrying case out of an ammo can!

Industrial Tractor Seat Shop Stool
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.4 года назад
We acquired a rusty antique tractor seat a while back, and have been itching to make something cool out of it. Since we needed more seating for the shop anyway, we decided to make an unnecessarily complicated shop stool! At the heart of the stool is an acme style threaded rod and nut from a leveling jack. This gives the stool some height adjustability. The structure is made from CNC plasma-cut ...
FREE GO KART PLANS! FINALLY!

Link to the go kart plans: www.anticsgarage.com/gokart.html We still get a lot of questions about the go kart. It's awesome that it has inspired a lot of people to try and tackle their own go kart build! While I've attempted to answer many of the questions about the dimensions of the frame, angles of certain parts, etc., it's pretty hard to give a good explanation using just a youtube comment o...
Electro Etching on Steel, Brass, Aluminum, Copper, and Stainless Steel!
Просмотров 22 тыс.4 года назад
Like most of the planet, we're stuck at home during the coronavirus pandemic. So, we decided to use this time to learn something new! Join us as we dabble with the art of electro-etching on various kinds of metals. It's a very simple process, using basic materials that you probably already have in the house. We used a vinyl cutter and a small DC power supply, but you could do the same thing wit...
Making a Steel and Wood American Flag
Просмотров 7224 года назад
First off, while working on this project, our country (along with the rest of the planet) has plunged into a state of total hysteria in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. It's pretty weird and scary out there as I'm typing this, and youtube videos about artwork are probably the last thing on most people's minds. However, our United States Flag has always represented solidarity, strength, an...

Welcome to our new project series: a 1977 Cherokee Chief! It's a little old, a little funky, a little leaky, and a little smelly, but it has a lot of potential! Join us as we dig into this old jeep, and fix what needs fixin' to get it back on the road again! This is part one of a multi-part series, but we don't really know how long it will take. We're both Jeep guys, but our only previous exper...

Random Paddle Ping Pong Battle

What do you get when you mix a ping pong table, a garage full of stuff, and two guys taking a break between builds? You get the random paddle ping pong battle. We discovered two things while making this video: 1. We have a disproportionately large number of dustpans in the garage. 2. Chickens aren't nearly as competitive as you'd think. Enjoy!

    Did you guys ever finish up? I’m restoring a 74 Cherokee and can really use some guidance. That tailgate was a nightmare!!! Good to see your video and know I’m no moron and it’s a “real problem” with these vehicles. Anyway, would love to see the rest of your project. Was really helpful so far.

    one can place a metal file with the correct bend (alternatively make own file rather than buying) against a round piece of metal mounted in lathe or similar, with merely gravity and a bit of extra force from a weight placed on the file, slowly digging into it and creating the correct groove

  • @JayDee-bz2ge
    @JayDee-bz2ge 3 месяца назад

    It would work nice to find a guy like me with a big lathe to turn the finished item that could use plasma cut pieces to make the same thing for myself... 🙃 and you are 100% right, bending dies are insane expensive, and they shouldn't be... Yeah, I'm just gonna have to get a plasma cutting system guess. My friend wants to try casting scrap aluminum into center blanks and sandwiching them with steel. after seeing your approach work, I believe it would work.

    Switch the polarity for the aluminum (and maybe the brass as well) and you'll get a lot better etch. For added contrast, switch to low voltage A/C after you etch it (and before you take the vinyl off) and it'll turn it black. It works on steel, not sure on AL or any of the others. You can try a doorbell transformer for the A/C supply.

    Loving the Father-Son time. Not enough of that in today's world. Big props to you guys for that. OK, I know I am late to the party here, but this video just inspired me to build one of these. I have some 3/8 inch mahogany panels that have been lying around for some years just waiting for a project. I think I just found one. I know 3/8 is a little thin, so I am going to build an inner frame so it doesn't collapse the first time I (Try To) use it. I am totally new to the whole Cajon thing, but it looks interesting enough to give it a go. Anyway, thanks for the inspiration. I will have to come back later and check out some more of your content. Looks like a fun channel.
