    Don't get me wrong. I'm crazy about Matt's channel. Roy's channel and Paul's channel.. but you and the boss. and Hillbilly. Just make this the best channel ever. And thanks for all you do, my friend. Nothing decent to watch on TV anymore. Thanks for putting out those videos. Gives me something to do. Thanks again.

    @AFloridaSon 9 месяцев назад +13

    I seen the wrecker in action on Owen's channel. Good job, but it really needs lockers. Good to see you do some bodywork. That's where you truly shine.

  • @garyfox33
    @garyfox33 9 месяцев назад +37

    Definitely liked the old school bumper on the wrecker. I'd honestly add a brush guard around the headlights and corners of the front since you guys do a lot of off road recoveries in the woods.

  • @jacquestubeetvous4981
    @jacquestubeetvous4981 9 месяцев назад +54

    Hey Robby, you can make press brake dies that work on your press. You essentially make 2 “v” that fit into each other then bolt them to the press.

  • @jesseleesamples

    I actually really enjoyed the entire process of fixing the tractor fender. That’s a good example of something an average do-it-yourself-er could try to fix at home. I wouldn’t wanna attempt to fix a nice muscle car or a G-Wagon like you professionals, but id try a tractor fender, so watching the process for a repair like that is actually interesting and very helpful to me. I’d love to see more body fixes like that, where the end result doesn’t need to be perfect. It’d be awesome if you did a project where you teach how to do body work and paint on something at home that an average person can do. Like don’t use your best tools or your paint booth, just use stuff that most people can get or can afford. Keep makin the awesome videos though, love watchin you guys and appreciate the long hours and long videos you’ve been puttin out

    The more I watch your videos, the more I like them. You have your moment of fun and then you switch almost instantly to teacher mode, and you are so good at that. You manage to explain things in a manner which is both interesting without becoming boring to the more experienced, an incredibly difficult balance to achieve.
    On a slightly different angle. Have you ever tried lead filling? That would make an interesting presentation.

    Harbor Freight sells a 30 inch brake roller combo, so does Grizzly and Certiflat sells a small DIY that you weld together and add a bottle jack. Eastwood sells one that you use with your shop press.

    You say that your not that good with the plasma table but you do awesome work with it and have impressed me with the work you have done on it over the last 6 or 7 months that i have been subbed to you.
    Also I seen the video from Owen Barlow (it came up in my feed due to your name in title) where you used King Fred to recover that rolled over crawler for that guy and I think you should do a video Collab with that Owen Barlow where you show him how to use a body puller to help straighten some of the bad parts of that crawler.
    Videos where you show how to do body work are some of my favourite 👍

    I don't know why a painter gets powder coating done? That stuff is soft for two to three years, flaking or scraping off pretty easy in those preceding years while its fitted. It doesn't "fall off", that's not what i'm meaning. Anyway. You do the steadiest straightest cuts freehand with a plasma that I ever have seen Robbie.
