I wish I had your skill set and tools Your a true craftsman love the videos looking into taking some machine shop classes soon been welding for 20 plus years never to old to learn new stuff though
lets be real here. Everyone wants to learn how to tig weld aluminum or weld. The skill here is "fabrication". Welding was about 5% of this whole project. Learning to weld will get you a job, but if you want a career and make money, then you need to learn everything in this video that is not welding.
It would be awesome it you can put a welding-lens on the camera so that we could see the puddle, how it behave´s and how you control it. Anyhoo it´s a real pleasure to watch you work.
You are seriously incredible at what you do. Awesome work. Thanks for sharing. Oh and I have no idea how you always do everything in those gloves and still so on point with everything, it’s impressive. Is there a reason behind it or is it just the way you like to work. I mean I wear gloves for a lot of different things especially work done on metal but the gloves are no where near as thick aside from when I’m welding and I always end up taking them off in the middle of what I’m doing because I can’t feel anything lol. I’m just saying you’re really good lol.

I have 3 questions about this brilliant project: 1.What a valve cover like this helps for??? (Except of the looks) 2.How is the program you used for the design called??? 3.How did you get all the measurements for the CNC mill???
1. Looks. 2. It says at the top of screen while he is doing, Rhinoceros 5. 3. The first ~45 seconds of the video show exactly how he gets the measurements.
You are one monster fabricator. There are many things that would have taxed my brain pretty hard, and you blasted right through them all.. nice work. Are you a southpaw, or do you just hold the torch like that from habit?
It might be as you quoted "lipstick on a pig" but it's going to be a very fancy pig. To quote Charlotte's Web "That's some Pig" Nice work, i love your videos. Keep up the excellent work.
Would have been way faster to just machine it from the solid block. But where would be the fun in that and that is not, what this channel is about. Nice work and nice video!
This can be added to the growing list of "Things I can't do" ! Awesome.
TIG welding is a top of welding art. You’re real master! Thank you for awesome video!
I'm so glad there are people like this in the world. He makes a valve cover look like a art piece and I have trouble welding a kinda straight line.
5 to go! I learned some interesting fabrication tips. Thanks for posting!
I gotta say whoever is doing all the fabrication on this channel a master at his or her craft to say the least
This is awesome. My dad used to work for Cummins in South Africa and he really enjoyed this video
Just mad skillz, fabrication, welding and editing, pure legendary vids!
I wish our current vendor took as much pride in their work as you do.
Super interesting how you made the base to lock everything in and match up before welding it up. Extremely cool.
It’s like therapy watching your videos. Thank you
always the most enjoyable aluminum fabrication to watch! love the jig
i'm always impressed with your fabrication and welding skills. beautiful job.
Looks easy when you have the right tools and the skills to use them. Great job.
Thank you again. I woke up at 2:30 am PST time to watch this 💯💯💯
Thank you for respecting what you do / create. These videos are epic
I wish I had your skill set and tools Your a true craftsman love the videos looking into taking some machine shop classes soon been welding for 20 plus years never to old to learn new stuff though
Dude your videos are the best and your fabrication skills are second to none
Just like butter......great fabrication, I could almost smell the Argon...Thanks
What an awesome video, no rambling on endlessly. Just an awesome video
Insanely cool. Not just the skills but how you use all the tools available, even cnc, to do a sleek manual job. Like that welding jig.
Nice to see a fabrication/machining video. Really well done too.
you make the best welding content keep up the good work showing everyone that there can be a certain kinda art to it
This should be a required video at the start of all Junior High Schools.
I watch all of these videos and I am in the 6 grade
@@SmoothThee.fisherman you're getting a good leg up on all your competition
Absolutely amazing. My Tig alum is decent but yours Sir is otherworldy.
Great work and some clever techniques - I'm envious both of your skill and your workshop !
man. imagine all 6 valve covers. would look nice.
As always nice fabrication and welding. I learn something every time you do a new project!
You said it! Lipstick on a pig!
Awesome!
Sure would be a shame if all these fun new toys magically appeared in my shop one day without my wife knowing.
Best welding video of this year! 👍

Not really.
Not true both parts equally take as much effort .If you can weld but can't fabricate or vise versa what's the point?
Thats alotta work for a valve cover. Hes making showroom quality parts. Hope the rest of the engine and whaterver he puts it in is as nice.
Your work is just mesmerizing!
absolutely stunning welds, sounds like your frequency is up around 80-90, is hat about right ?this is as good as i gets,
You Are absolutely amazing. Thank you for the great videos.
Such a pity something so perfect won’t be permanently on public view, this is the point where a craft becomes art.
Mister You're awesome.
It's practical teaching.
This is the kind of stuff I can get excited about in my older age. Sure beats watching porn!
This is porn.
I agree, dude
@pmgodfrey, well......
I'm sorry but I honestly get aroused seeing the work this guy does.
Not interested in porn anymore. This kind of shit is what gets my attention these days!! 🤤
You should custom fabricate that whole engine. Valve covers, manifolds. Brackets. The whole thing. Be a cool project
It would be awesome it you can put a welding-lens on the camera so that we could see the puddle, how it behave´s and how you control it.
Anyhoo it´s a real pleasure to watch you work.
Lots of those style of videos at www.6061.com
Love it , really look forward to your videos , your fab skills are impressive. Wish I had your machines
haha, the payoff was awesome! great work, as always!
Love this channel! Please keep it up! From 🏴 👍
I'd love to have a set of these on my truck
Matt from “Off the Ranch” needs these for his new car build!
Need to add those to your merchandise store.
You are seriously incredible at what you do. Awesome work. Thanks for sharing.

Definitely awesome videos. Should do one of building an intake manifold
Left handed people are in there right mind! Thanks for another great video!!
9:37 "Lipstick on a pig" aAHAHAHAHHAHA LOL LOL. Nice videos man, nice and steady hands. Keep it up
Awesome work man
Well that engine will never be a pig. It just now has a shiny ear. Impressive.

Killer video I love 12valves!!!!!
Including the computer work, how long did this actually take?
Beautiful ! Love your style
my hats off to you, very nice video !!!!!!!!!!
These valve covers are gorgeous. . Do you make them for sale or just demonstration and learning?
I'm sure this has been asked before, but what kind of welder does he use? It must be some sort of inverter.
I have 3 questions about this brilliant project:
1.What a valve cover like this helps for??? (Except of the looks)
2.How is the program you used for the design called???

1. Looks. 2. It says at the top of screen while he is doing, Rhinoceros 5. 3. The first ~45 seconds of the video show exactly how he gets the measurements.
Of course it contains the oil which should be splashing around inside - hence the 'gasket' .
You are one monster fabricator. There are many things that would have taxed my brain pretty hard, and you blasted right through them all.. nice work. Are you a southpaw, or do you just hold the torch like that from habit?
The valve cover worth more than the entire engine LOL xD
That's a 6bt. In that condition figure 3-4 thousand.
What camera are using to film with? Awsome videos
It might be as you quoted "lipstick on a pig" but it's going to be a very fancy pig.
To quote Charlotte's Web "That's some Pig"
Nice work, i love your videos. Keep up the excellent work.
This man is a legend
Yeah, but can you carry a tune?
Great fab work.
I enjoyed this comment.
Ohhhh yessss. I approve this video. 👌👌👌👌
Nicely done!! 😊
Fantastic built 🤘
Beautiful 👌
I liked the fixture better than the part!
YEEEAH! What is it about cnc in high speed video that is so damn satisfying to watch.....!?
Lmaooooo... Lipstick on a pig... effing priceless... Well done sir.
Would have been way faster to just machine it from the solid block. But where would be the fun in that and that is not, what this channel is about. Nice work and nice video!
be far more costly though
Nice job.... u are a true craftsman
Beautiful work! WOW!
great work! any chance of getting a just the fixture or even a diy kit with fixture for these?
A real craftsman!
Should have got it coated gold....that's how nice it is!
Hello my friend, you are just leader number one champion!
Welders and auto mechanics always have the most beat up shit and it still runs like a top.
great machinist and welder
Peace of art
Aluminium is my favorite material for welding. Dreaming about own workshop, want to start make videos too, about welding. :)
Love your work
I need a set of these for my ve pump cummins! Would really spice up my 88 f350 dually
How did you touch a Cummins valve cover with those gloves and keep them so clean?
If you wanna go ahead and knock out 6 spares, I'll take em. ;-) great work!
Awesome video
This channel is awesome!
Five more to go....nice work.
Nicely done. Thank you
I love your videos
Smarts ! wow, came out great !
