nice work you are good you make it you dont go and just buy it i am very proud of you for doing it youre way from me to you and yourse happy building i will be watching right here in the USA peace
Looks strong!! Can’t wait to see the first rip!! Those big brake callipers will lock those wheels up like nobody’s business!! Good vids!! Might suggest some music in the background?
When you use the TIG welder, point the tungsten directly at the weld, you send the heat all over the place if you have a giant raking angle like that.. and use filler wire.. The idea is to get into a rhythm after you form the puddle, you should be 1handing that torch. as for MIG turn your wire speed up, and if you have a small/underpowered machine take some scraps and practice a couple butt welds and inside corners/T-joints at max voltage (how I run my shitty weld-pak 100), make sure to gap your parts so you can see how much you can get it to penetrate into the gap, making a much stronger weld.
I'm digging the ingenuity guys, very cool! However, your welding can only be described as, well, scary and that is a dramatic understatement. For starters, that "popping" noise you're hearing from the MIG is too much wire and not enough heat and as a result you're getting little if any penetration. Turn your wire speed down and your voltage up until it sounds like a smooth burn. Put the TIG away. Period. I just don't want to see all your hard work come apart at 60 MPH. One more thing. Put on some gloves before you burn the crap out of yourself or worse! Good luck!
you really think the dude gives a f bro? lol hes literally cutting metal, throwing sparks, and torching with no gloves and sandals. I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't using a lid hahahaha
GUYS!!! There’s soooo many video’s on RU-vid to teach at least one of ones to weld!!!! You look like y’all have really good ideas but y’all shit the bed with your welding abilities!!! I mean come on now!!! It’s 2021 and it’s free to learn!!! ❤️👍🏻🔥🤣
Practice makes perfect. Wire feed speed sounds a little low. Maybe bump up the gas a bit as well. It's all in the preparation as well. Make sure to grind all the surfaces that you're welding to bare metal.
When you start the weld, sit in one spot long enough to get a melted pool going then slowly pull the edges of the pool down the weld seam in a C shape. When you go too fast your wire hits the "cold" metal outside the pool and it kicks you back.
Good job ! But Its awful heavy , Better suited for a work machine than an off road buggy for fun . Especially with the car trans an trans axle your using. This will be slow , and quick wont even be in its vocabulary ! Like I said , Better as a work machine that an off road buggy . Bug great job on the build.
? I don’t know if I’d trust any of your welds you drag a mig and you drag the tig with no filler rod think you need to go back to welding school or go in the first place top points for the engineering side of it all
Totally agree with you critic about this gentleman’s welding process. As a qualified welder / Fabricator, we call it a Boiler Maker in Australia I often laugh when people ask what my job consists off, I say welding and fabrication they say oh yeh I’ve got a mig welder and I can weld too might keep it in mind if I’m looking for work. Welding to code is a in-depth process and yes most any one can run a weld via a mig welder in a short time and for many home jobs it’s some what ok. I always encourage people who do a bit of welding at home to look online and learn more about what is actually going on and what you are trying to achieve deeper than joining two pieces of steel together. The more you learn and understand what’s going on it’s a fascinating process. Really impressed with ingenuity.
Parts.... but no talking. What is the spindle from. What to do without pro brake and or shear. Nope.... keep looking. People... Everything is easy to build if you already know how !
it looks like the frame that holds the swing arm requires one small frame from the end of the bearing arm to the center of the vehicle. so that this vehicle does not shake left and right Like motorcycle frame to the swing arm
While your design look good, your welds don't. You seriously need to learn to weld and soon. Driving anything and have a suspect weld break is extremely dangerous. Thumbs Up!
Слишком огромная неподресоренная масса, да и в целом конструкция не надёжна, полуавтомат желательно настроить и получится варить, прежде чем такие ответственные детали делать
That welding is proper shit, plus mig you are soposto push not pull, and also tig melting and welding are two different worlds, first bump you will see the wheel flying past you 🤣🤣🤣
Nah, even though the welds are ugly, and SOUND ugly on the video, that doesn't mean that they won't carry the stresses they're exposed to. He's over-built the swingarms, and used very thick mild steel. Even though the steel is relatively soft, he used quite a heavy gauge, so it'll be fine. This vehicle will be lightweight and won't be carrying a lot of weight, so it will most likely be fine. I'm not saying that these are the prettiest welds in the history of the universe, but are the strong enough to do that particular job? Most likely!
@@AddictedtoProjects I give the dude props for sandal welding, but he's got 1/8 or 3/16 on some plates that should be at least 1/4, and 4130 for an off road vehicle. If it's just for cruising it'll be ok but a good hard bump will bend that. The channel is decently hd but that upright mount it's all welded to is not. The welding was plenty hot but I saw a lot of mild steel tigging with no filler, that won't last off road either
Dont use cv joints 99% cant be set up good and are no reliable..mx 450 atv set up is the strongest and way better in driving off road trails(exept climb) put any buggy with cv joints against a yfz450 to see that solid axles way of driving is 1000 times better cheaper and stronger
