Hi Karl: I just want to tell you that I am so impressed with your steering colum set-up and all of your fabrication and tool building skills. I see you as Canada's best young car builder and you have an incredable carreer head of you. Also your Utube skills and filming is outsanding. Dont slow down you are going to be seen as another Chip Foose, Bobby Walden and Gene Windfield. You have my support all the way.
His attention to detail is on another level.
Joy even when things go wrong, this is what makes you special, even more than the crazy skills! 👍🇬🇧
Just a tip on two things! The hole saw, I just turn the drill bit around and just do the lock screw up on the twist. Saves the saw walking around on any sheet,
If you look at many pro builds . . .
Steering wheel looks great, and I really love the look of the art deco waterfall. It all looks soooooo coooooool!
I love the 40 steering wheel Limeworks makes good looking tradition parts
Karl one of the neat things I learn from you is how you take difficult ,for me, and a make it a simple job. 1000 thanks by now
We enjoy your presentations and especially the fact it is family friendly with no foul language or temper tantrums. Thank you for the video on the VAVAVOOM garage, we have been looking all over for older vehicle parts. We have a collection on 1954 Chev trucks from 1/2 to 3 ton and a 1933 Chev sedan delivery. All are in the process of restoration. Thanks Again for your channel, keep up the good work.
That rod with the 1/4 inch hole idea is really smart!!!
The smaller diameter '40 wheel is terrific! Nice detail on your mounting pieces.
U da man Karl lol 😊 Looks like you found those flexovit disks.used to use those all the time 👍
Great work on the column install. Great ingenuity. Simple yet elegant. The steering box install went great. Love the steering wheel and turn signal choice. Looks very strong. Look forward to more on the ramp truck. Be safe and stay well.
Nicely done Karl, every aspect of that car is very custom and very well thought out. I watch you and Jordan all the time and I appreciate your skills and your explanations how you do things and you both are willing to share what you’ve learned, thank you for that! Sounds like your Australian trip will be a blast!
Hi Karl, I'm an electrician and drill a lot of holes in metal. From sheet metal to half inch wall thickness steel beams . We use good quality drill bits and holesaws then tap a lot of the holes. We use the Drill Doctor to sharpen the split point bits and that really helps. But the one thing that really helps most is to lubricate the bits . The product we use that really makes the biggest difference is Hougen Slick Stick. I don't get kickbacks or anything. This really works wonders. Having to resharpen the drill bit every hole or throw them out, the same with the taps was expensive and killed a lot of time. Give it a try. It was a God send for us.
Everything about this car is beautiful. Nice work Karl!
Hi there Karl I think your ability to think an idea through is amazing. Absolutely loved the end result and finish of the column setup. A+ work as always in my opinion. Can't wait to see the next steps. 💪😊
Wow, that is great. I just love how the roadster is turning out. Keep up the good work.
For the column clamp: machine a block with the bottom being the OD curve of the clamp tube. Drill and tap for the bolt longways through the center. Center over where you will split the clamp and pipe. Braze block to clamp pipe. Machine slot through block and pipe. Drill out bolt shoulder side of block for socket head cap screw. This way, the clamp block can match the look of the dash. If you want to get super slick you could also fillet the block where it meets the tube so it flows into the clamp. Brazing should be plenty strong for this.
Steering column & steering wheel look awesome!!
