After our failure with the Hot Glue Gun we decided to buy this Vevor Stud Welder/Puller and use it to pull the dents on our 1968 Valiant wagon. We started off badly but finished strongly in the end.
We also now have merchendise available, so head to scottysgarage.... and check out what we have to offer.
Congrats to Colin Lane for winning our Sidchrome Nano kit.

And this is why when you take a car to a body repair shop you get a quote you drop a nugget and decide to have a crack at home DIY but then go back to the shop with a tail between the legs with the cheque book....Respect to body shop repairers they are worth what they ask...great video mate...

take it to a body shop, spend 50k on a car that's work 20k? I think this is the whole reason he's doing a diy build

@@benni727 for sure if you have the skill set to have a crack and save dollars....why not....for me I'm a person that will try but end up needing help

Which is what i did with my bent Alfa. BUT, lots of us want to, like to, work our how to DIY. There's pride in learning new stuff. Also... $$$ are a consideration.

@alt7488 Месяц назад

or you spend a few hundy bucks and a night a week at your local tafe and learn a new skill along with the confidence to diy

@damienmills293 Месяц назад

A couple of hints. Metal has a "memory", so it "wants" to go back to its original shape. The longer you leave it, the more the memory fades. Second. If you heat the panel with a heat gun, it will move more easily. That is: it gets "softer" when it's hot. Brilliant trial and error vid. Including the Galahs! Also, when we try something new, we always seem to do it in the most convenient places. Best to learn in the hidden spots, like inner guards, floors, inside of doors etc.

@Bee.nee343 Месяц назад

You know why a dent wants to go back to what it was? Because the edges and lines of a panel hold its shape together that is why when repairing damage and file finishing they are the first things you you fix because if they aren’t right nothing else will be, it doesn’t matter if a dent has been in panel for 70 years it will as long as your lines and edges are correct and the dent is not stretched to buggery it will always want to be it was.

@1969Risky Месяц назад

Trial & error Scotty! You did pretty well there for someone who's never used the Vevor dent puller before. Keep at it mate & then you'll get your mates over asking them to fix their dents!

@PaddyBoy644 Месяц назад

I’m no expert in any of this but I was watching a video the other day with the guy that is fixing the million mile Lexus and he said to start on the outside of the dent and work your way in to the centre. Thanks for the hard work Scotty and good luck mate. Cheers Pat

@mackaman1964 Месяц назад

Scotty I’ve got one of those different brand but exactly the same and never had any luck with the wiggle wire sticking, but the stud nails work great. I think I bypassed the over heat protection after having the same issue

@halayeous Месяц назад

Ordered one myself from Vevor website and was cheaper than I saw elsewhere and arrived within about a week. I've also found the "washers" to be useless so far but using the pins have given great results. I did get frustrated with the slide hammer pin puller head that kept slipping off the pins but got some M8 all thread from Bunnings, cut a bit down and put one end in the hook attachment / the other in a pair of vice grips and it's working great.

@peterjewell9436 Месяц назад

Hey Scotty another tip when using the claw attach ment connect a ratchet strap to have a constant tension on it an tap around the repair to release tension in the metal as the metal has memory and some times when using the pins when they break off they can leave a whole in the metal

@hespie1 Месяц назад

Thanks Scotty, I wondered if those pullers were any good.

@dinosshed Месяц назад

Heat it up a bit first before having a pull. Start either side of the dent and work into the middle. You can just use a mig welder to tack those washers on. I've also used bolts and used a nut to wind the dent out.

@blownhemi Месяц назад

@@dinosshed I've done that as well

@blownhemi you should see the car I'm repairing at the moment. It's a track car that got punted so hard the hatch back didn't exist.

@terryallsports9352 28 дней назад

Hi Scotty, I'm a little late to the party, so I hope this message finds you well. Your fellow RU-vidr D3Sshooter did a couple of videos on the Vevor a few months ago. You might want to check if your model has the upgraded controller motherboard with the 80 Amp TRIAC instead of the 40 Amp TRIAC? Maybe also look to see if there is a heatsink attached to it? Seemed to really do the trick for Steve (D3Sshooter) on his Vevor Stud Welder/Puller. Maybe Vevor will provide the upgraded controller motherboard under warranty?

@rustymonaro184 Месяц назад

Good onya for having a go at something else your not familiar with, looks like with some more experience it will be well worth the purchase price . All you need is a cheap dyno machine and you wouldn't need to outsource much work out😊. Just finished my order as well 👍

@Bee.nee343 Месяц назад

when pulling the pins you actually slip the slip the slide hammer down on to the head of the puller and tighten it using the slide hammer instead of tightening it onto the pins by hand or with a shifter

@blownhemi Месяц назад

I realised that afterwards, it's actually a pretty good system. I didn't realise at that time that the weight had a hex in the bottom to lock it up

@Bee.nee343 Месяц назад

@DodgyBrothersEngineering Месяц назад

I didn't know that dent was there. There was no way you were ever going to get that out with the hot glue gun. Can't say I am overly impressed with the new one. Probably came out of China. Everything Chinese is prone to over heating.

@blownhemi Месяц назад

@@DodgyBrothersEngineering everything is from China these days

@DodgyBrothersEngineering Месяц назад

@@blownhemi yes unfortunately that is true. They are available on Aliexpress so that confirms country of origin. But if you are prepared to take your time and not try and use it for professional use I guess it would do the job. Hopefully they will send you a new bit that broke. Can you add a bit of extra weight to your slide? Might make getting the dents out a bit easier.

@blownhemi Месяц назад

@DodgyBrothersEngineering the slide is quite heavy already, I think if it was heavier, it might pull the metal too hard

@DodgyBrothersEngineering Месяц назад

@@blownhemi yeah I was watching how much it was moving with each hit. A bit more weight might just give you a little bit more control. But then you would need to exercise some self control.

Yep you gave them over $100 for them to send your details to another company. These types of spot welders have been around since the 80's just expensive. There are some really good videos out there on how to pull a line out with them in one go near perfect.
