Building an Amazing Steering Wheel From Scratch! 

Enter to win the CNC plasma cutter here www.grindhardplumbingco.com/ LAST DAY TO ENTER!

I appreciate all Grind Hard vids. But as someone who has followed you guys for years, multiple videos in a row on the same build are the winner for me. Even if it's just 15 minutes here and there. I love following a full build.

This upload schedule is keeping me at the edge of my seat. Even if the "work" done to the project is relativley minimal...well worth it.

Nice work on the steering wheel Ethan. Would be sweet if you laminated the grips on the steering wheel with wood much like a knife handle and your steel would be like the center Tang keep up the great content 😎👊

The new grill an steering wheel look absolutely brilliant! I’d love to see some wood, or even aluminum scales on the wheel’s grips to thicken them up for added comfort (and bonus style points!). An epic build! Keep doing what you do!

i work as a cnc plasma operator. for removing the dross/slag off the cut parts just use a wire wheel on a grinder instead of the air hammer you were using. leaves a super nice finish and is very quick

The theatrical music changed the vibe a bit… but the work gets me every time keep it up!

That steering wheel and grill is sick af 👍🏻🔥🤘🏻

I would love to see you guys build a mini Ripsaw!

It's pretty weird watching Ethan do actual Computer Aided Design, instead of Cardboard Aided Design! The result is incredible! He definitely has a knack for it. CAD/CNC is quite the rabbit hole to go down, and I'm glad it's finally happening, hope to see more!

I'll never complain about tig welding again because Ian's out here scratch starting the world together!! So much props for that

Damn, I guess you're good on the cad work! You were holding out. Good job

Lord Ethan The Fabricator once again has wowed me and deeply satisfied my OCD tendencies! Brilliant & Bravo!

The CAD work on the steering wheel and grill are incredible! They came out really nice the technicality of this build is just getting better with all your great new tools keep up the great work👍🏼🤩

We have entered a new era of GHP. I dub it the CNC Era. Gonna be Lit.

CAD (Cardboard-aided design) never fails

this project is going nicely, i love it especially since its one of the biggest power wheels you have made

Love seeing the evolution of the builds, tools, Ethan's skills and the channel in general since subscribing during the OG barbie car build 👌

Well boys you know what that means, it's time to build a garage. I'm pretty sure someone will sponsor you once you put your feelers out there. Good luck.

CNC cutting is a learning curve for sure. I'm 12 years in and on my 2nd machine. Still learning every day! Keep up the great content!

Happy you finally got to cnc plasma! Cant wait till youve got your big shop and a big cnc table!

You are a true matter at what you do...stuff comes out amazing

I love the growth of this channel over these past few years guys to rad and stellar cad work

The combination of skills involved in this show is mind blowing.

Plasti-dip for the grips. You could even spray the grille with it.

Can’t wait for your shed build series & the work you’ll be able to flow out of it! Gonna be so sick!

CAD??? The Grind Hard guys are going to the next level! Things are going to get a lot more interesting I bet!

Love the work guys

This project is getting more and more rad.

Damn I love these uploads so quick … ya keep ‘em coming

Great way to start my day. I'm still chuckling as I type this. Lots of fun. Muito Legal ! Thanks!

Your attention to detail and creativity is second to none. Amazing work!

I think it’s time and I think majority would agree, we are all beyond ready for a time lapse of Ethan finishing the outside of his house lol it would be very satisfying haha

Another stellar episode! Thanks Gents

Wow. What a great life. All those seasons . All those toys .

I just watched this video. glad I opened RU-vid

I’ve always wanted a mag brake. Just haven’t been able to pull the trigger on the $ since I have access to traditional box and pan brakes. Great purchase! If y’all are planning on putting a cnc plasma table in your new shop hit me up for some info on what to buy and not to buy. Or if you want to build your own table (which would be some cool videos) I built one last year and would love to share plans and info on that too. Awesome videos as always!

I love the way your brain works Ethan.

TRICK! I can't wait to see the first beat run!

That plasma cnc is awesome, sweet steering wheel!

Awsome job.....your talents blow me away 🤯

You should make a sharpie holder for the cnc plasma cutter to check the pathing before you do a full cut. Then it would be a 2d plotter, and you could draw on paper or cardboard, cut that to shape, and check fitment.

I'd love a failed print to decorate my office!

Awesome tool right there! Worth every penny.

that’s steering wheel and that grill and everything about this bill is just mint can’t wait to see when it’s done can’t wait to see it send to

Yall should add a snorkle that would be soooooooo sick P.S. Love the barbie jeep keep workin hard

Good luck everyone

Morning coffee - AKA Orange Juice. Dah Juice is guuuuud.

Bonjour. J'adore se que vous faite Pourquoi pas fabriquer un bac de découpe pour le découper plasma ?

At least I can watch you all use your Arcdroid while I wait on mine. lol

awesome vid love the Barby car

Switching of the stepper motors and the CNC droid thing would make the electron spin resistance go away. Then it would feel smooth. Exited to see where the shop goes tool wise.

Watching this while ziptieing together my cracked inner fender off of my wrecked truck. Gotta save what money I can. Golf at least 40 zip ties in this alone. Love the channel. CNC looking good

thats a really cool tool! great for getting the most out of metal scraps you have laying around

Can’t wait till you get the new shop built …super stoked for you guys to have legit larger work area

Another great build. It reminds me of the barstool racer I built

For the next build you guys should do a maico 700 engine. It’s 700cc of two stroke goodness meant for a dirtbike chassis. Or a 500cc kit for the KTM 250 or 300 twostrokes. You’d have electric start that way. Either way, A two stroke power wheels build would be insane. Especially if it has a sequencial instead of a CVT lol. Not that sled engines are bad or anything.

Man you're pumping out videos atm. Love it.

I am keen for some shed action today for sure!

Could be a bit tricky to operate the throttle and brake with one hand. Regardless, your work is second to none. Mad genius!

Probably my favourite build right now. But I love how many times I’ve said that. Each build gets better and better. I hope that in years time you’ll be able to build them for customers and we can buy them online.

This build is incredible and so fun to watch. Keep it up guys!

You need a steel bench rectangle,on wheels a medium heavy ,I have one and roll it wherever I need it and a 4cil engine fits on on it and can hold it . Let it Galvanise so that you can put it out .

You should get jb weld stick and use it like modeling clay for the steering handles!

love that your doing the cad... i use it every day... but i hope you are using a mouse... didnt see one at morning coffee... makes a huge difference 😆

Nice work guys! Keep it up.

As a Mechanical Engineer who uses CAD nearly every day, it's so cool to watch someone else do it for a project that's radically different from what I'm doing. I use Fusion 360, too! I prefer to use the Dark Sky environment within Fusion, though, as I the dark grey background is easier on my eyes than the bright white. If you've got any questions about Fusion 360, please feel free to ask! Also, even more so than when I commented on the last video, I'm EXTREMELY interested in that Arc Droid! Seeing it cut so precisely around the Barbie face was incredible! The plasma cutter overheating is because you're not using the Lincoln Tomahawk 375 with it in this video, right? I have the Tomahawk 375, so I'm just curious if it can handle continuous use on the Arc Droid.

Always love the drone shots of "Sketchy Acres".Can't wait for next fall's shots with the colors surrounding the new shop.Shine on you crazy diamonds !

I love the new CNC. When you first showed it to us I almost bought one but decided I had better wait until after I get my garage/shop rebuilt.

This was an awesome vid. I have watched many, but with you guys showing the designing with C.A.D. Is super cool 😎. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I think after this build something that would bring in more views and different people would be a 4cyl turbo custom buggy of some sort! maybe a shift kitted swb long travel death trap or something.. sema build 🤯

Happy birthday man u gyes have a great show big fan✌🔥🔥🔥

Now that's what I'm talking about! Masterful production! Heck yeah.

Anyone else slam that like button before even pressing play? Awesome stuff guys, this is coming out sweet. Still hate the crossed bars in the windshield tho :P

Oh I love the grill really cool looking 😁🎉

Great work guys! 💥 Killer work with the cad

one mans failed cad cut is another man treasure 🤣

Build a drift power wheels with a big hand brake!!!

Woot! Keep it up guys! Braaapp!

Genius, greetings from Uruguay 🇺🇾🇺🇾😎✌

@3:18 I'd be careful with those pointy edges on that metal! Awesome job guys as always!

Loving this build!💥

Go with the hot pink paracord. You might want to add a small curved plate front and back where the hand grips are to give it a more round profile before starting. Paracord grips are great and soooo easy to replace if needed, and you never know when you'll need some on the trail.

Ethan! I think you would appreciate a mouse for CAD… after using one for years I feel throttled when I have to use the trackpad. Not sure what program you’re running, but SE, SW, and Creo feel a lot more efficient with a mouse. Love the content!! Inspiring stuff

You guys have evolved from from crazy to maniacs, lol.

Hi from Ireland Bro....

You are getting way more creative now that you can makes watching that much better

This is a awesome build!!!

Phone went : (boo boo doo) and now im watching grind hard. Life is good

Better weld grill on steel bumper using metal sticks, so it can be another point to attach the bumper.

I love where this build has gone😎😎

That is one awesome looking control cluster! Kudos!

Well thats cool, This 4x4 is going look good and be bad ass, when it all done I hope you all have fun with it.

That cad is pretty cool it's amazing what you can do with it. but I don't know if would be able to make it work. hell I can't even figure out my phone. I thought Ethan had massive fabricating skills before but he continues to amaze me. there probably isn't anything he can't fabricate. that tool for plasma cutting has some advantages over a regular plasma cutting table. and one of them that you guys probably really appreciate and so do I. is that it doesn't take up as much space. another AWESOME video no doubt.

Nice video Ethan 👍. I use to run a plasma & oxy acetylene table, back in Sudbury Ontario. Some of the steel I was cutting, was 8 inc thick . Anything more we had to per drill , starting points. Then set the program, sit back and manage gas flow. A very satisfying job.

I’m just here for the plumbing content.

You guys are so talented it's crazy well made videos and well made parts so freaking cool

I'm from Oregon I would love one of those grill's

You should wrap the steering wheel with paracord :)

Wheels up!
