      @@MakeItKustom I agree with hot rod dad your channel must be the best kept secret on the tube , I honestly just stumbled in here the other day and thought this was a discovery Channel or pilot show , very well done and your craft is definitely not the big network and that’s a true complement. Not to say all of them are crap but they somehow turn kustom into a reality / drama assembly line parody. I guess they say any publicly is good publicity ? However I’m a bit old school if your best at your craft they will stand inline to get in your shop so do be carful when they approach … love what your putting out it’s well worth my time . Look like a new sub to me !

    I just tried this on valance panel for my 66 Mustang. My original had backup light holes cut in it. I found a good used original but it didn't have backup light holes. I wondered how I could accurately cut the holes into it and remembered this video I saw awhile back. I used the tape for the shape and cut out the holes and laid it out on the other panel. Worked perfect! Very accurate. Thanks for making this video.

    It's the simple things that impress me the most. I always knew that duct tape would hold the shape of anything you stuck it to, it just never crossed my mind to use it practically.
