BUILDING AN EPIC CENTER CONSOLE & EPOXY LID FOR MY TRUCK!!! 

This turned out better than I could have possibly imagined. Good for you, man. Your level of craftsmanship has improved so much since I first started watching.

Haven't had a notification in a while, I remember when the truck was just a roller and the cab was in the air,the truck is looking amazing keep it up .

Damn Dan I cant believe how flat and smooth the parts are! Everything is fire bro damn! Great tips in this video ty Sir!

"He is a man of focus, commitment and sheer fuckin will" Darn good job on the project Dan, I hope to be able to do half the stuff you do one day

I have to admit, I had no clue of where you were going with your janky ass MDF center console project when you first started, but this is truly amazing craftsmanship. This whole truck is a masterpiece, so much work and effort you've put into this, great job! Can't wait to see the other projects getting the same amount of love!

This was certainly worth the wait. Everything looks great, Dan!

Dan I just wanted to say I'm really happy for you and not that it matters coming from a stranger on the internet who isn't that much older than you, I'm proud of you man. You consistently just make content about what you want to do. You have always had biggest and coolest plans, and while they often don't work out how you envision, you always try your best and if it fails you move on to the next thing with full commitment. We can't possibly know your mental state, current anxieties, or anything like that, but it seems like you are in a good place. Doing stuff you are excited about and we can tell. Just know we follow you for you, and we support everything you do, failure or not.

You have no idea how happy I was watching this video tonight. This is a work of art. You did an awesome job on it man.

Dan I’ve been absolutely in love with this build series since the start. It’s been such a long fun journey to watch. It’s been so awesome watching you speak your ideas into actually physical parts and watch it take this truck to the next level absolutely insane. I’m gonna be so sad when the dually build is done for good cause this series has just been so unbelievably fun to watch. The series really took me out of my comfort zone to start building my truck that I’ve been wanting to build since Highschool and my truck has come a long way from stock. Now I just gotta figure out a badass name like Odin for mine haha.

Dan it's impressive how any different hobbies you've tried, with some minor mess ups from time to time and you always achieve something amazing. When you gonna do some rocket science?😁👍

Hey so DIWD ima gunna need to steal this whole concept here for my own rig. I don't own it anymore but I had a 96 Dakota that I always wanted to fully customize and update. (rosewood dash inlay, touchscreen, accent glow, the whole 9 yards. tbh you also gave me the idea to do away with the bench and make captains chairs all around(probably swivel Recaros in the rear to save space). I even want to do double rear suicide doors like the 2nd Gen Rams. the way you did all of this is so epic that I need it in my own life and youve shown me how to go about putting all the ideas together. I'll put a plaque in it somewhere giving you full ass credit because your R&D on methods techniques and products is going to save me weeks and weeks of headaches and heartbreaks.

Just when you think the truck can’t get any cooler 🔥🔥🔥

Dan built his center console in a cave. WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS. I’ll see myself out now…

Bro that’s amazing I thought you were going a little overboard stressing about this console but man it turned sick asf. You really made it your own that’s awesome.

11:30 am I the only one who got side tracked watching iron man on dans tv in the background😂

block sanding is always a satisfying process takes a bit but 100% worth it imo, can’t wait to see odin on the road

Dan. You have never ceased to amaze me. After prolly 4-5 years watching. I love it dan. The center console and everything youve been doing.

This is one of the most oddly satisfying I've watched in a long time. Talk over + editing with the film work is just killer.

I first started watching your channel a very long time ago because of the motovlogs and other fun stuff with motorcycles but it's been amazing to see how you've grown and made some pretty amazing things. Just watching your creativity has been incredible, I'm a CAD designer so watching you build stuff out of what you have with photoshop to then cut out of the plasma cutter is honestly pretty cool to me. You've made everything work with what you have and learning new skills along the way to make it your own is awesome. Just an appreciation comment for what you do and how hard you work to come out with awesome content and build some pretty sick stuff, that's all

Dan the center console turned out so cool! Nice job! The video was fantastic, I respect a man who can admit when he's afraid of something. I hope you're doing well!

I can't wait to see this truck completed and see Gavin's and Justin's reaction

I love it when you cast things into holes

Awesome.👍🇬🇧🇮🇱🇬🇧✌️

Do fun shit Dan! I love the piece 😁

It has been so satisfying to watch this come together. Nice work, Dan!

Dan, please don't ever change! 😁

Dan, that lid is awesome!!!! I recently took on an epoxy project which you definitely inspired, I’m definitely used the same technique to spread the expoy 😂

very cool project man you did an awesome job im sure it took alot more time than what the video displayed, cant wait to see some more custom builds. cheers

This came out _so_ good Dan. I mean, well beyond what I was expecting. You killed this project. Will the Valknut be available form your shop?

I love your videos your posting about your truck, I’ve been following this build the whole way! I hope your meds you got for your MS are helping you out, and your doing well!

Hey Dan, love your videos I love the custom work!!

insane lid

Epic editing!

Oh man, this build literally inspired me to buy my own truck. I recently met my goal. Can't wait to do some interior mods 😎keep it up man!!

The center concole came out great, the epoxy work looks phenomenal. A quick suggestion for using large router bits like that 1.5" roundover, some of the instability could have been caused by the rotation speed of the bit, large bits like that need a much slower RPM to cut well than smaller bits need. Also, I hope you dont get DMCA'd from that Ironman playing in the background haha.

That center console looks freaking amazing.

Bad ass Dan!! Looking sick af!! Can't wait to see the finished truck!!

UN.FUCKEN.REAL BRO!!! I remember when you bought this thing and you’ve done one hell of a job on it so far buddy! Keep it up man!

Bro I didn't get a notification for this video.... fuckin RU-vid. I only knew from your Instagram post

Another great episode on the truck build! You've come so far in your skills and creativity, Dan. I can't wait to see cinematics and rollers of this beast going down the road! Keep up the amazing work man!

What a legend. Absolutely awesome interior and can't wait to see this build finished

The wait for this project was well worth it 🔥 Epic work Dan! 100% pure gorgeous

That is just a common gregorski hinge.... Invented in the late 1800's by Lyndon gregorski , it's been around forever

damn, that video was PURDEH GUDE i tell you hwhut. center console looks amazing.

i love your build videos so much, so satisfying

wow, your epoxy skills have come so far, and it looks awesome, pretty damn neat

Holy fuck, what an incredible work you've done, Dorito Dan! Pleasure to see. Clearly one of my top fav video. Keep it up, man!

Now was that dbza or the actual dbz while you were pouring for odins medallion? Either way I'm not surprised, shits great to have in the background while doing stuff

This just blew my mind 🤯 Holy fucking shit!!! I will tell you again and again and again: this is not just work - this is art!!! 🙌

I like how you’re causally watching iron man and then markiplier lol also im so happy to see this big b***h almost done Love your vids :)🤘🤘🤘

Dan I haven't had anything from you pop up in a long time I don't get why I watched your videos pretty much religiously! but glad your finally sowing back up it's time to play catch up I guess lol

Dan we need more gixxer videos asap!!!! Maybe some moto vlog collabs like old times! Can’t wait for you get back into the game.

Odin's up in Valhalla clapping thunder cheeks in anticipation waiting for you to finish this masterpiece Dan keep up the awesome work.

Rad project

With coatings you dont need to sand between coats if youre within initial cure time. (My company goes by 16 hours) it cures alot better when you mix coats like mentioned here, as when you let it fully cure, then sand, then apply another coat you are really ending up with 2 separate coatings, when we have to revisit any project and it has cured we will sand but its important to reactivate the base layer of the coating with a proper solvent, to avoid the multiple coatings mentioned. Things like this are why we can have 20 year warranty on our work.

Look into building your own oven using the electric oven you have. Could make some cool content and could give you what you want for less money than buying one. make it so that you could build a rack that rolls in and out to do like bumpers and what not as well as a ton of plates. I believe it would only be some steel plate some steel studs and insulation. Might look into it. I know Ryan Mayor (6.7 lime) made his own might try reaching out to him.

You still using the harbor freight powered gun kit? Considering getting one to do my rims on my yzf600

There was a solid 45 seconds of talking I missed completely because Ironman

Well done! Niklas Johansson really sets the vibe - Respect from 🇩🇰

Holy shit Dan. This is crazy. Been watching this come together. Good work

They do be looking PURDY GEERRRRD 😂🤙🏼 hell all of it does 😎

Just hitting the thumbs up didn’t feel like enough credit to you so I have to say that is absolutely amazing work

Did Dan become a Titan of Whiskey at 28:54? Love the way you cut the music 26th the footage! 👍

Dan, since we are a left-hand drive country, won't you want the release button on the lid one that you can use while driving, i.e. with your right hand? How are you going to reach over and release the button with your left hand while driving?

15:50, when the B is For Build song starts playing and you briefly get very confused if you have another tab open

I normally use poly seal or a clear primer on MDF before pouring epoxy, It eliminates the need for excessive amounts of epoxy layers

Looks so bad ass I dig the Odin them I had a thought should of put the Nordic compass could of popped even more with that dope ass black acrylic job on the lids

@27:00 love that your watching dbz abridged. That shit is funny af

Amazing work definitely one of the best consoles I've seen built

Broooo that came out badass!!! Btw, its also nice to finally see you complete a build. 😆 jk

Dan should have a license plate cover with "NoT a BuiLd" he would sell out just on his own projects 😂😂

So we just skipping over the face looking seductively at Dan on the tv at 19:53

Dan I see you enjoy taco bell, if you haven't you should try the chipotle chicken melts them shits are fire

Looks amazing excellent craftsmanship

I think you'll need some sort of leather part to the lid for your arm cause resting on epoxy could get sweaty and slick and then to clean it would be a job to keep the nice finish. You could do a separate piece of mdf or whatever and wrap it in leather and notch out a section in the lid and attach some set screws to the bottom of the piece and drill some holes in the lid to fill with whatever kind of bonding agent and slide the piece in Idk im overthinking this

That's a Nissan trunk hinge for all ya'll who don't wanna build one from scratch

The little edits in this one like when you was drilling the holes for the hood pin latch how it it from the pilot hole to final hole really just gave we great pleasure idk if you've always been doing that shit and I haven't noticed it or what but damn dude that shit just stuck out as smooth as fuck to me

This looks like so much work (all the work you have done since you got the truck) I would have given up a long time ago lol

Do you sell customizable parts for things like this?

From 10:40 to 12:15 was I the only one not listening to a single word from dan and just watching iron man play in the background?

The first video of this truck I watched was the headliner! Crazy how long ago that was

I know this is late, but the name for this build should be Dually with Dan. Love the creativity.

I still can't believe you were in the Walking Dead. Lol, biker #3

Dude the work you do is amazing .Between the table you did a good while back and this . That shit is hard af

This console took longer than most people’s marriage’s 😂😂.

It’s awesome to see Dan, an average joe just put his mind to it and accomplish something crazy cool like this. Very inspiring I love it. Just one question, do you plan on painting the screws to make them a little more hidden/blend in?

Very nice. It actually suits the rest of the interior.

I built my PC oven. I use off the shelf electric oven heating elements for ease of replacement.

It’s literally called block sanding. Get a bigger block, it will be even flatter

What's the name of the track playing at 29:25?

Finally got to watch the video and holy fuck that center console is just gorgeous 😍

Hey dan, ever think of hooking a vacuum up to, or near, your router, might help you out in the future, love the content keep it comin.

With the latch I was thinking a strap to pull like on racecar door cards with the strap coming out of the top through a small slit rather than a large hole but that works better with pins and turned out incredible

Does dan follow odinism? Am i today years old when i found this out??? if so hell yea!!!!

have you considered cerakote no bake options? they seem to look damn good to me! i want to try them on my suzuki fr

add some type of rubber with adhesive on the back where your arm sits so over time your clear coat doesn’t wear down

Console looks bad ass man! On a side note, what's going on with the wrap life channel?

dude such a good video.. nice job on the center console...keep it up man..

At the start, I wasn't to sure how this was gonna turn out, but I'm not disappointed at all, it turned out badass, keep it up.

Ball peen. You beat steel and iron with a ball peen hammer, or a small hand jack. Never use a nailing hammer.
