I am spending a lot of time on my El Camino hood.. Closing an old Compressor hole in it and recreating the original shape. Not is owing to plenty warping.. Took me several days but seems like it's working out 😅
Not trying to be a. Nay sayer or hater but I feel like this completely wrong way of expressing this problem. Do it on a large. Side panel that you can't lay flat on a table and hammer it out. Why not just get a. A complete new sheet metal piece ....... Not a shop owner professional but I have built many many many cars and I do all my own body/ metal work
Any recommendations for parameters? Amperage, shield gas flow. I've done a lot of pipe welding but very little sheet metal. The warping is a bit unnerving.
@@eastwoodco wtf are you talking about? I didn't mention color, or white, in my comment. Yet you replied to my comment with your statement about white. Hmmm. I suggest better ventilation or perhaps an air-fed set-up as I think it may be the fumes from that which you are welding. #Ismellwhatyourcookinanditsodd
Looks like you mostly hammered and dollied the welded area vs hammering the other parts of the panel. So basically I want to hammer and stretch the welded area and not stretch the good metal that is warped out of shape.
Thanks for having us! Come check out our channel for more fabrication content! 🤙
Ryan’s the best! Would love to see more featured content from him.

I've always wondered how to position the dolly behind the hammer. In this video one can see the process from the side which is revealing!
Nice presentation Ryan, good job showing and explaining what happens and how to repair the warp. Thank you.
Why put up with a warp?
Nice tools.good job man.
Good work!!! We also have rich experience in sheet metal fab, we are a strong manufacturer in China, with high quality and competitive price.

Incorrect. Pure white is the absence of colors. You cannot mix colors to create white.

50 amps? I wouldn’t have guessed that much.

Can you use mig welding with 16-22-26 gauge sheet metal?
Yes u can try use mig filler wire .023 to .025 mig if possible
I thought it was better to grind the welds before using hammer and dolly?
Fitzee fabrication could do it with his eyes closed
I need help with a welder need on bad please please please please help me out please 🙏
I am sure they are in a rush to send a free welder to a random guy on a RUclips comment
Bad Chad has excellent videos on welding.
Something that thin why bother using filler ? Fusing something thin would be perfectly fine for the applications it’s intended for.
Surely you should be using your "skills" to show how to weld with no distortion, especially when Tig welding.
Is this possible?🤔
After you spot welded, your panel was already warped. Try watching Bad Chad for warp free panels. Hammer and dolly is waste of time
Where is the professional Porsche fabricator? Is this kid getting paid for these videos?
Ryan is fabricator at Translog Porsche in York, Pennsylvania.
