Hey man! Very smart idea to tilt up a body with no fear to damage sides. Actually it may be combined with a cart or wheels to move a fastened body all over a shop!
Once again, smart idea with minimum costs!👍👍👍
Brilliant. I never even thought of that! Genius.
Brilliant!
That's a really cool idea that most don't think of. I've only seen it used as a circle jig so the car can be tipped upside down but this is great as well.
I've seen a fully-wooden version too.
Clever Mark, wish I had a garage to do my restoration. Did my floors on jack stands one at a time on the pinch welds because I had to do floor rail repairs as well.
Weather permitting of course.
Well done
Very inventive
I had seen something like that many years back, always wanted to make one.
That was slick!!
Nice!!
Not a lot of money, very effective and very cool.
My project has been sitting for over five years needing the same thing and not having the money to buy a rotisserie. I seen this video and thought omg yes finally show me what to do and boom just a tease. Is there any place with the actually instructions how to do this?
Well it's more of a general overview as every car is going to have different dimensions. You can search around for Tilter Jig, DIY Rotisserie, etc. and find others but again the size and shape are ultimately going to be something you decide.
@@eastwoodco Thank you for the response; I've previously looked online and found a number of versions that were rather complex. I have a welder, but I haven't bought any metal or cut it to size yet. The measurements needed to construct something similar in order for it to be balanced would be crucial; the rest is likely visible from images. My project is a 77 Camaro stripped down to a body shell, exactly like the one in the video.
How about you post the list of gross materials used? Like "40ft of 2x2" square steel, 1 sheet 4'x8' 3/4" plywood, 28 1/2"x 4" bolts with nuts and 2 large 3/4" washers each..... "
That sort of thing and maybe just some general design drawing would get a whole lot of guys building these things! That body tilter was the heat!! dirt simple and practical, easy to make and use. Much appreciated, great work brother.
@@bretsmith6315 You think that is 2x2? I thought it looked bigger.
Now that is the best idea.
I don’t get how you have nearly halfmillion subscribers and practically never any comments ???
We have the best subscribers out there, they get it and move on with their day
It's because people are in Awe!😮😅😅
❤
Great idea!
Thanks!
Sick!
Nice job , I built a regular rottiserie years ago , worked well , just a big pain in the butt to take apart and store while not using , also each end was not very slim , didn't tuck up to the wall nice and neat. This looks like a perfect alternative ! I'm about to do a 57 chevy , I think the only change I'm going to make is that I'm going to make the frame a little taller on the bottom so I can bolt the body on and roll the body off of the cars frame. May work may not , worth a shot . Thanks again
Nice - let us know how it turns out!
Wicked clever.
Cool idea👍👍
Very nice and easy!😮
I've been following along but I didn't know you were replacing the floor. Are updates posted somewhere else too?
Rocker replacement and floor are in the works, stay tuned - you can make sure you don't miss an episode by subscribing and checking here: www.eastwood.com/marks-garage
Videos will be posted soon
Like to have the measurements that's a cool idea
What radius is the wood?
The link below goes to Eastwood's page but I didn't find the list or dimensions of the roller over rocker frame. Am I missing or over looking something?
We give you the guide on how mark created this, but we don't give dimensions as every application will be different.
How did that string work after you tilted it? 🤭
Stayed nice and taut!
Very cool but seems like it takes up just the same if not more room than a rotisserie.
I see yall copied a recent youtuber's plans and made a slight but significant improvement. I'm glad yall did this to show it to more people, but you should reference his channel as eastwood gets plenty of views.
What RUclipsr?
I first saw a variation of this idea about 20 years ago. Nice idea if space is limited. Besides, I don't remember Mark saying he invented it, he simply shared what he did that may help the next guy. I applaud the knowledge transfer as it helps the DIY crowd.

@gofastwclass that's fair. It's probably been around a long time. I just seen it for the first time several months back.
