What would you call the piece you made to cover the radiator and fans? We are building a 210 Wagon and really like the way that piece looks. Are you making those to sell or do they have to be made custom for each car?

I’d call it a radiator cover . And they are made to each car

Send cut send sounds like a convenient way of getting parts cut to high precision. Junkyard Dave mentions them a lot. I think they are only in the US and not here in Australia.

I could see at the start of the video that you had TIG welded the first stand. TIG welding is something I have never done myself, as I've only done MIG, stick and oxy welding.
@HalfacreFabrications2 ай бұрын
Yep, I tig welded all of them, that is mainly what I do these days. I’ve done stick, oxy/accetylene and MiG but prefer Tig over all the others now. I still MiG once in awhile, but not near as much as Tig. Once I learned how to Tig it has quickly become My favorite!

I’m not a huge fan of the air powered scribe tool that they sell with their machines. But there is a guy who does amazing work with it, I just don’t want to pay for the software he uses for it. I do however really like the hypertherm easy scribe. Works great and for what you’ll be doing it’s perfect for that. Look up Adam Deuling from Deuling Design. He does part numbers and stuff with his easy scribe and can get really small detail! He’s a master at it.

When you weld the metal shrinks and distorts. To remove that distortion, you need to stretch out the weld. By stretching out the weld you remove the distortion. In this video I am only using a hammer and dolly.
