I think this was one of the best videos I’ve seen you do and I think I’ve watched them all. Thank you for creating them. That one was packed full of information 👌🏻👍🏻🤘🏻👊🏻
You’re so welcome and thanks so much for watching and supporting! I’m glad you dig this one
True craftsmanship.
Im a simple guy, i see Karl uploaded. I smash the like button. 👊
👊👊👊👊cheers man
Gz Karl I was holding my breath when you started to bead roll that hood. Really glad you didn't roll it 10 times. I was nervous for you, couldn't take my eye of the line. A great video nice and long with absolutely great content. Very methodical and your concentration is amazing. Thank you for sharing your time, video and craftmanship.
You’re so welcome man thanks so much for watching it! Glad you enjoyed this one!
On a 30-31 you don't pinch the frame just 28-29 that looks screwy at the cowl
Watching a genius at work, what better way to spend time on RUclips.
Oh shucks lol thanks for spending your time here cheers!
Carl a big shout out from Australia
Im a 57 year old car restorer I really enjoy watching your videos you are a seriously talented young guy
I watched how you made that aluminum radiator fit that front panel but the way you made that bonnet fit 👌
If I can share something with you
When cutting aluminum with those thin cutting blades have a wax candle handy and drop the tip of the blade in it a little it will cut like butter without clogging
Keep up the great work my friend can’t wait for the next one
Michael
the workmanship quality that goes into this Model A is priceless !! that car should be worth more than expected !!
Thanks man!
@@MakeItKustom The pleasure is mine...you have the skill and carry the experiance proven!!!
The amount of detail to the inner structure is amazing. Had you ever thought of hot glue gun to position temp rods. With tape it could slide glue sticks would hold until your ready and peel off fairly easy.
Never thought of it but great idea!
This is so scientific as compared to the way young (unskilled) guys did it in 1968--the only hood I ever made was done by bending the flat sheet over gas welding bottles. we just bent the hell out of it by hand, trimmed with hand shears til we got it looking good. I bet that hood is still on that car today! Same guy still owns it!
Karl, I found a solid rubber caster wheel at harbor freight which was 6" and it really works better than the rubber band. Yes it takes a few minutes to change the wheel over but, it takes the frustration out of the rubber band always going off to a side and having to constantly having to realign it ! Looks great keep up the great videos !
yes i agree we don't have a Harbor Freight but have one called A MANS TOY SHOP same thing but from what i have Hurd say you can get way more from yours than the one we have 6 inch by 2 1/2 inch wide great for rolling the bends in the tin
I was wondering how frustrated he was getting. I know I would have been. Lol
Great attention to detail, and your jigs, fences, etc. enable you getting perfect results while working alone.
Yes I actually have one 8 inch wheel that a friend of mine who works at a rubber place took and stripped the urethane off and then vulcanized new rubber to the wheel. I swear it’s gonna be the most amazing wheel I’ve ever used I just have not made the bearing for it yet
@@MakeItKustom That would be a cool wheel to sell on your website along with your Japhands Kustoms radius guage. Just like you built it. Looks sweet
Takes a death wheel to a brand new part without any hesitation. Definition of confidence.
Ha ha it needs to be cut it needs to be cut!
Karl that was Amazing, after 47 years of running a body shop, I bow to you !
Man that’s a pretty high compliment I really appreciate it!
A+ FROM A 66 YEAR OLD , 3RD GENERATION , MACHINIST .. YOUR DOING GREAT ! THANKS ...
Nice work! Really enjoy watching your fabrication, the machines you make and the tooling you make for your machines.
I love the evolution saws. I have their hand circular saw and love how easy it cuts metal and especially how little of a mess it makes! I am planning on purchasing their bench chop saw as soon as I get my new shop finished. My old abrasive chop saws would sling crap everywhere in the shop. There would be abrasive grit and metal dust on the other side of my old shop. This will help sooo much with clean up and it cuts so much faster. And the metal doesn't get as hot as it did with the old abrasive chop saw which was basically grinding the metal. This comment is a year past when you actually got the saw amd I bet you're loving it!
Thank you for the time you spend showing us your talented work 😙
You are very descriptive of each step that you are taking. I’m 74 and probably never do what you do. I always wanted to learn how to do what you do! Thanks!
Thanks Bruce!
Absolutely amazing work.
Outstanding work, you’re a great teacher Karl ! Best video yet.
That saw looks amazing! Just wanted to mention these longer videos are great. It takes me a few sittings, but I still never miss a minute of your content.
Beautiful work Karl! Keep em coming... cheers, Doug
Hood looks perfect! Great job as usual, that custom bead roller die worked out really nice!
I'll be watching this more than once just another great video 🏁
awesome, Karl! Just getting started watching. Looks like a lot of great things you are working out on this roadster!
Karl, just another wonderful project with the perfect amount of detail for us hot rod loving cats.
What an awesome end result!!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Karl compliments on that hood...man you take metal panel fabrication to another level...your thought ...planning... and execution is a class above the rest...thats what i can take away from todays lesson...thank you Sir...great respect...👍👍👍
THAT IS ANOTHER LEVEL...Awesome. Thank you for sharing...from South Africa
Really Really Excellent your as good as I was back in the day...I'm 76 now keep up the creative work !
Karl you do unbelievable work thank you for taking us you journey.
Thank you for this one definitely showed great points and tricks without being boring.
I really enjoyed your building the bead roller, and it's proven it's worth in rolling those beads perfectly. Very nice work, all of it. Thanks!
Every once in a while the You Tube algorithm really nails it for me, and this channel immediately went to my subscription list, along with the European women’s high jump and pole vaulting vids, which are, uh, you know, different.
Ha ha ha glad I made the cut lol some test competition with the European women’s high jump
Yet another awesome video. I love my Evolution saw, so much of an upgrade from a abrasive chop saw and still compact for guys like me with limited space that don’t really have room for a band saw.
As usual, brilliant artwork in metal...thanks for sharing your ideas, skills and techniques!
Great work, looks amazing
Looking awesome!!!
A joy to watch Karl. You are a craftsman for sure.
Looks really amazing!
Hey Carl, you really nailed that Hood. Well done.
Great video Karl, it had everything, it was like being in a time machine, time passed in a second, great work you are so skilled
Your talent and work ethic are amazing. Love to meet the person who instilled those values in you!
Love the longer videos! Amazing fabricator great content I’ve learned so much from this channel much appreciated.
Start your loving it Matt! Thanks for watching and supporting
You knocked that hood outta the park. Keep at the zephyr and make it perfect no matter how long it takes you. Perfection takes time.
Thanks man and I agree I definitely don’t want to compromise the end product of the zephyr by rushing. I will make a tool if I have to to make the job right. I think I need a reciprocating hammer now lol
Incredible as always
Awesome job!! Those beads were perfect and finish the panel nicely.
I’m sure the beads will add strength and help the hood keep its shape.
Keep up the fantastic work!
Awesome job. Lots to see and learn. Sincerely thanks for you hard work
Thanks again for your lesson and details! Nice work!!
Thanks man!
That was a great piece of craftsmanship. Made a hood, made a tool and it looks perfect! You are the man!
Great video. Great work. Excellent detail. The Duval windshield will look awesome. We used to put them on custom built 1930s Mahogany Gentleman's Racers they have always been the classic Lake Rod Rat rod so to speak of the Boat world. We built them all from scratch from hand drawn designs to hand drawn patterns and frames. They were built with a classic vintage look sometimes with a steam punk and or Art Deco twist. They always looked so damn sweet.
This Rod will so killer with that Duval windshield frame for sure. It's the perfect touch
Absolutely frickin amazing job you did their lad!! Well done!!!!
one of my favorite vids. very detailed and explanatory. not that I'd ever tackle this.. but I have a stronger understanding now. Puddin's Fab shop has an Evolution and he friggin LOVES it.
Man, you make great videos. Perfect pace and insights as you go. Really appreciate you taking the time to do these so well. I need to do a hood in the upcoming future so this was killer! Thank you!
You work is unreal. Your like David Copperfield performing magic. Beautiful!
Hood turned out nice. Thanks for the tip on the evolution saw, just ordered mine 10min ago.
Man, this video was chock full of stuff, and that bead roller is starting to look steampunk, I love it.
Your videos are great, and you are always so positive and upbeat! Clearly a man who loves what he does 👌
Beautiful! Thank you.
Just beautiful Karl, thanks for sharing!
You’re most welcome thanks for watching!
“I’m a little nervous.” Dude I was more nervous than you were! Great job.
Ha ha it’s always hard when you know you can screwed up at any second lol
Amazing craftsmanship, love all your videos.
Thanks Jan!
Looking great guys 👏
Great work Karl, you never cease to amaze.
Thanks Mark cheers!
Gorgeous work Karl , all this stuff is such an antidote to todays mass market consumer mad society . Happy New Year and best wishes from Yorkshire England . Thanks a lot for sharing .!
Thanks for doing these videos Karl, I always learn something and I really enjoy watching..
You’re so welcome thanks for watching!
My evolution saw was one of my best purchases! Love it!
Right on! Seems like a lot of guys on here have them
Awesome to watch the craftsmanship.
Right on Scott thanks for watching!
Love the jazz music
Hi Brenda! 👋 yeah u nailed it on the aftermarket parts that are supposed to be direct bolt on stuff but never seem to fit. Body panels are usually a nightmare and even things like getting headers to fit can be almost impossible without modification.
Your hood turned out beautiful, nice job young man. It made up for the frustration we all went through W/U on the zepher panel. 😯
That Evolution saw has been one of the best purchases I have made! Had a year and half on one blade with tons of cutting. DOM, moly, sq tubing and channel. Great video love the content!
brother, that's skill, you have mad skills! Keep up the great videos.
You had my heart ❤️ thumping with the bead roll but once again you nailed it !!! Fantastic video.
Lol I was trying not to think too hard about it because that would have ruined my day lol
Class work Karl as per usual a lot of different things been done in the 1 video thanks for bringing us along with you and sharing the video with us
You’re so welcome thanks for watching Trevor!
You are so talented at metal work.It shows you love doing it. Love watching your shows.
Glad you love the videos man I definitely love the work!
I personally prefer the longer format vids. I'm sure they are a lot more work, but a guy really does learn a lot from them!!
So glad to hear it ben! I’m enjoying the longer format to
Looks very cool, Thanks for that Video
love the work, learned much and I have a tip for you. I use playdough to to find clearance issues... just plop a ball on trouble area put parts together as much as you can, remove and look at the clearance issue on the dough. works geat. cheers
Great job Karl, the hood turned out awesome,very informative.
Thanks so much!
Awesome fabrication mate thanks👌👌
Well done mate. Excellent video!
Best tutorial ever. You are getting to the level of the legends man! 👍👍👍
Ha ha you never know maybe one day but I’m just happy to be working in learning! Glad you enjoyed the video!
You make it look so easy! Beautiful work as always. I am learning a lot from you, and I plan on taking what I’ve learned and applying it to a 1969 firebird. Replacing rear quarters and trunk and more. Thank you so much for everything you do and the beautiful work you do!
You’re so welcome thanks for watching! We just finished the metal work on a 68 Firebird for my dad last year!
fantastic video loved every minute of it can't wait for the next video
thankyou Karl
You’re most welcome! Thanks for watching!
Smart of you karl to put a fence on that bead roller that ensure a dead on bead all the time. You even had me nervous as you were rolling in that bead. LOOK's great...you nailed it Karl. Hood looks smart..nice job!!!
Fantastic job, amazing talent, congratulations..
Simply amazing

Wicked Karl, great video and so much awesome info
My mind is blown ! Dude you have so much talent, thanks again for sharing it with us.
Right on Mike thanks a lot buddy!
I laughed at the laugh and self cheering at the end ! I've done the same in the release of nervous tension and satisfaction at the final fit of a big step in a project. It just shows that the kid is still alive and well in us. The coupe is looking great!
Ha ha yeah Bruce sometimes you got to just make some noise lol I’ll never grow Up I hope
Crazy cool work. You explain everything very well, not just how but why. It's like the whole teach a man to fish thing. Thank you for your time.
Thanks for your feedback man I appreciate it! Cheers!
I love thoughts saws . They cut perfect with hardly any sparks!!!
Yeah pretty crazy actually can’t believe how cold the metal was when I picked it up
Wow! This video was a master class in fabrication, tool making, and the thought process involved in building a hot rod! Outstanding! Thank you Karl. Keep moving forward!
You’re so welcome thanks for watching!
You sir are a true artist !
Thanks man!
Karl, your level of concentration is admirable. You are a very innovative young man. Thank you so much for the videos.👍👌✌️
