This channel is all about the shed life. Car building, tools, shed tips and DIY projects for you're ultimate home workshop/garage.
My main project is my Holden HX one Tonner that I have owned since I was 18 years old. With the car coming up to nearly 50 years old the Holden One Tonner is a classic Australian icon and becoming more popular as a muscle car. I hope these videos of documenting this build can give you tips, ideas and inspiration to carry out you're own home DIY car builds.
Enjoy and thank you for stumbling onto this channel.
Four years after your video. It was what i am trying to do.. I searched lot.. But yours is same what i am doing.. Instead rect. Tube.. I have 1" sq. Tube. If i have watched your video before.. I would go for rect tube. Instead of above the frame, i placed all tubes inside rhe frame.. I faced problem.. Still working on it.. Your video helped further tonhave extension.. Intially no idea for me to extension pipes.. Now i will doo the same as u.. Thank you..
Thanks for sharing this! I'm using your video to put a system that's very similar up im my garage. I just wonder where you sourced the 6 weld in tube adaptors to ¾ BSP male from?
Did you consider using a rotisserie im just starting a restoration now and thought a rotisserie would make it easy although you made working on it standing up look easy
Might want a longer drop leg on second or third drop/valve. That's where water sits/collects until you open the valve. Not sure why no one seems to include nipples off the ball valves. Cheap clear tubing run into a drilled and vented paint bucket is a lot nicer than water stains on a wall, from venting. Super congrats on getting it done, even if you do modify it a bit. Sorta leaning toward install between pump and tank, with keeping the tank dry as a thought.
Hey Sam, great job mate. I'm looking at doing this upgrade to my LX Torana soon, and I'm trying to figure out how to best mount the Astra pump. Can you tell me what size hole you have to cut to get the pump tank to poke through into the engine bay, please? Cheers Andy
Hi Mate, great videos car looks mint……how did the astra pump look in the end….from underneath and in the engine bay? About to suss mine out and watched your vid from a few years ago on your install….cheers JF
Hey Sam Car and you looking good mate! that's an impressive amount of weight to put on! Glad your enjoying your training Hopefully catch up soon! Cheers
I was taught to heat from the bottom, or one side and feed it from the other, same reason, you can watch it flow around the joint and keep a cool wet rag where you don’t want heat, cool project, thanks for sharing!
This is very useful, thank you. I'm working towards building a home art/video studio would these sheds be appropriate? Can we install sound insulation along the walls?
Hey mate love your work, I've also purchased these lights. I'm trying to fit them to a hq premier front. My buckets look the same as these and I've cut one the same as you but my lights still don't fit. Any suggestions?
As an Auzzy I can't believe that you tried silver solder when it requires greater skills than soft solder. And the next thing I have trouble in understanding If you never joined copper fittings before and that obvious why you did not try to join the fittings off-camera!!!.
Burn out, its real alright. Your mental health will suffer for sure. I have a saying. The only thing worse than an unsuccessful youtube channel, is a SUCCESSFUL youtube channel.
