    I really like the channel. The build off days were great but it's really nice to see you work and explain what you're doing at something a little less than warp speed. I just watched you install Hell Bent pipes today and watched you repair the knucklehead carnage yesterday. AWESOME !!!!!!!!

    The most amazing part of this is that giant ass block of aluminum in the press. As someone who usually is looking for random blocks of metal, wood, brake rotors, sockets and random crap to set up a pressing operation...... this looks so much nicer.

    I'm always left sitting in pure amazement at the things you know, like who would have known that an aluminum tank flexes so a panel needs to be inserted to give it stability from vibrations and then who knew about dimple making tools! That's why watching your videos is not only a study in great engineering, but pure creativity! Thank you for patiently explaining what and how you do things, you are such an inspiring person, and super videographer! Thanks

    When making replacement parts for Aircraft , Aluminum is often used as a lower grade and then Heat treated and quenched to bring it to a higher grade of strength . I dont know if you would also do this method unless your looking at making an Aluminum fender at T3 sheet and heat treat to T6 grade . Its just a thought to ask if you have done this as well?
