Ep.16 - Back wall rust repair 

No cert errors here , spot on as always 😎👍🍻 , don’t be too critical on your work these old vehicles weren’t perfect from the factory .

I’m liking this new approach to build updates Nick. It was great to see the build on the Dobbies stand this year and talk in depth about the project. We’re all envious of your back yard shed.

Awesome to see the progress and efforts put into this project.

I like the new videos and the no restriction. Just say it how it is. Have been watching since the start.

Agree, Japhands Karl Fisher is good at his trade, and good at teaching it, Kyle from Carters Auto Restyling is a very good metal finisher, crazy as a cut snake though..lol.

You might be a novice but you're doing a top job. Laid back episodes are best, bit of swearing thrown in

Looks good, you're doing a top job, with the top hat i would put another strip inside it so the rivnuts squeeze up good.

Awesome work Nick 👍

Thanks for another update! PS. Your website is spitting a certificate error.

Great vid

Excellent progress vids!!

You are right about the mig welds being different to tig on sheet. For some reason a mig weld is almost 4% stronger than ordinary mild steel, which is enough to make it much more difficult to dolly out, you just end up stretching the sheet rather than flattening the weld.

When fabricating patch sections, try to radius the corners, rather than a square corner, this helps with distortion as a square corner you are concentrating the heat to a single point. Also it makes it easier to do a continuous weld.

If it’s not too late, you could return that top hat and pick up some top hat that supports the floor on the VW bay window buses.
