A48 - Building a Supercar! What do I need to know? And- We start the front clam-shell (Bonnet)

[@babumoshai6191]

This is next level. You have made your chassis,electrical components,even designed the body considering the aerodynamics, ergonomics, engineering, dynamics etc etc. the knowledge that you have got to do the calculations and design the components is mind blowing you even designed(like a designer) the body which really looks good. You are a one man army. Like an engineer designer and mechanic blended into one. This is what happens when knowledge meets experience. And theory meets practice. You are an inspiration! Please keep sharing.

I have to say that this is one of the most inspiring channels on KZbin when it comes to chasing your dream, I've been a race engineer for over a decade and up until I started watching your videos, I never would have considered building my own car, but since I started following the build about a year ago I've been talking to my friends and coming up with a plan to build a pro level drift car from scratch, so I just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work, we are all fans of your build and can't wait to see it completed.

[@TheOneandOnlyGodHydra]

I discovered your channel about a month ago, glad to see that it has become more popular! I've been wanting to build a car of my own someday. I know it won't be soon as I'm only 18 and don't have much resources or the knowledge/experience to build something like this. I've been doing a lot of reading on vehicle dynamics and a bit of reading on other topics that include materials science, chassis design, and fabrication techniques, though I've yet to really apply what I've learned to any kind of project yet. It's going to be a couple years at least, but I will build one someday. Your channel is a good resource, I imagine I'll be coming back to it often!

[@BuilderCreator]

Doesn't have to be a car, but build something . . .worth 20 books!

This video gave me a new perspective: it's okay for life to get in the way. I've been slowly plugging away at my firebird and I find myself becoming apathetic. Listening to your story and seeing your progress has really made me feel a bit more comfortable in my own skin. Thank you for the inspiration, entertainment, and education!

Thanks for sharing all this. I started building in Fiberglass in the nineties, if there was youtube and your channel, I could had done the canoes and other dreams I had. Unfortunately that stopped with frustration of not knowing enough and having no cash. Finished engineering in night school, then 10 years between odd jobs until finally landed a multinational management position and settling... So maybe someday, with carbon fibre I could have some fun again. Thanks again and kudos

I'm living my dream vicariously through you. I grew up in body shops, I think I chewed on a bondo spreader instead of a teething ring... I've done just about everything you can imagine with vehicles while I was in the game, except creating an original like you're doing, but always wanted to. I had the concept and design in my head, but it never came to be. Instead I went into music, then graphic design till I retired, now I have the time, but because of age and health it's out of reach. Happy I ran across your channel, it's refreshing to see art, ingenuity, and creativity still exist on this level. Kudos sir!

[@BuilderCreator]

At least you can fall back on music at any age. I on the other hand will get old and wish I could play that piano that sits in front of me collecting dust. We all give up one thing for another. Glad I can be your avatar.

[@DavidGuyton]

Wow coming up on TWENTY THOUSAND subscribers! That's incredible growth! Congratulations sir you certainly deserve it. I feel like you were under a thousand subs and I blinked and here you are! As I sit here watching...I am curious why you don't spray a gel coat layer before laminating. I have only a very limited knowledge about composites so maybe there is some benefit to skipping that step?

[@BuilderCreator]

Yeah! I'm still blinking! Gel coat- The gel is applied to improve the finish. One of those things is to reduce print through (resin shrinks and you can see the fiber pattern) I will be doing a post finishing process of fill primer/sand, to get the best paint finish and so the gel is just added weight. As mentioned in this video, I also use a very fine weave fiberglass as the first layer so that print through is also "fine." Good to hear from you.

[@stuarthossack7906]

So many things you say here resonate with me on so many levels. Most males in my family and friends' families had jobs which were engineering based - when I was growing up I could get anything made or repaired, almost impossible these days. Over my life I have built a Ferrari replica (not ground up but donor based), guitars (from wood stock - not Woodstock!), electronics from when I was about 6 where I was using my grandmother's best cutlery heated on a stove to "de-solder" old radios, to today where I can design simple circuits and make them do what I want, renovating houses and having a semi-succesful career in Banking. I passed electrical engineering exams to wire my houses, put my own heating systems in with certification, building work and plastering etc.etc. I have never made things easy for myself though and always been distracted by the next "interesting thing to make or mend". I too do most of the design in my head. From seeing your work I'm nowhere near the same level as yourself, and I’ve sometimes been disappointed by the outcome of my efforts, but the thing that resonated the most is the addiction to tools, from good quality old chisels to a hi-tech solder station, from a portable welder (scared the life out of me) to a large petrol engine wood chipper and chain saws ............. if I can imagine me using it, I'll buy it. This is a fascinating series and you're a very modest and interesting man. p.s. I have hankered after a lathe and milling machine for most of my life but could never justify them, ah well y'never know. Respect from the U.K.

I just came across your channel. Thank you for sharing all this and for sharing your time and experience. It's inspiring to me as an artist/fabricator/custom car guy. Greetings and thank to you Jay! from WI.

artist/fabricator/custom car guys unite!

[@aphex4000]

This video is truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and taking us on your journey through this incredible project!

[@BuilderCreator]

Glad to have you along.

[@ahangoel]

Your channel is amazing, and it's so great seeing the car community helping you out.

[@melvindominguez6495]

You deserve a tv show. U chanel is way better than a few show they are on tv.

New sub from BUILT OFFICAL recommendation. Fantastic work you're doing!

Loving your content, I’ve been a creator and maker all my life, never been my career path but always my passion...friends and family have always wondered how I managed to pick up a tool and make it work for me straight away, I’m dyslexic so I’d explain that thinking about something creates visualisation automatically. I think you move this a step further with the term photographic concept memory. I really resonates with my thought process, thank you. Keep up the great work, I’m now an avid follower of what you create.

I knew there was something I liked about you. You must be LDS, as am I. I've watched about 50 of your videos so far. I plan on making a large 5 axis router for making full size plugs/molds so I can make a Supercar, but I plan on building it with a twin turbo charged LS engine with about 1800 hp. I don't have the skill level you have for fabrication, but I have done body work, auto painting and engine building, so hopefully I can build my dream car this coming year. But first, I need to finish painting my 67 L78 Camaro and sell it. Your videos have been very helpful. Thanks for posting so much information.

[@BuilderCreator]

1800hp - that's a very powerful 5 axis CNC! Ha! ;) I am also in the process of building a 5axis machine, albeit slightly less powerful. Thanks for watching the channel.

I'm one of your new guys. I was introduced to prototyping back in my youth, my father was tool and die working in a small private shop. I've always loved racing and especially Le Mans Prototype racing. I've also wanted to build a prototype as well, I love the current LMP3 and the last generation Audi R18+. I really love your approach and keeping it under 30k is impressive! At some point you could check out SimScale, get a base idea of your aero to help correlation with other testing.

[@BuilderCreator]

I don't watch much racing, but LMP is the best. More about the cars, less is secret, and the drivers are not always the focus!

[@builtbymiller]

Like you I’ve always dreamed of building my own car. Congrats on what you are doing, I hope one day I can build my own car like you are doing!

[@abderrahimmeksi2134]

Man your story inspired me so much, I am studying engineering and I hope to make my own product one day

[@BuilderCreator]

One day is today!

What a " Cool" Journey from the "Seed" of a "Innocent" Picture on the Wall of the Ferrari' Sports Car to Now!! Thanks for the Journey!! Dean Toronto ( SC)

[@BuilderCreator]

A journey it has been. Thanks for following.

[@gundonemushungwa5935]

Alright! today is the day that I have been waiting for, for another update.😃

[@SuperSchott]

Well KZbin recommended your channel around 9AM Eastern today (11/07/2020), and now it is 5PM and I have watched all the episodes. Now I have to wait for more. Over that time I also noticed the subscriber count go from just over 24,000 to 26,500. KZbin must be promoting your channel which is lucky for us new subscribers who would most likely not have found your channel. Keep up the excellent work and thank you for the great content.

[@BuilderCreator]

Thanks for choosing me over binge watching Netflix. Ha! Thanks for the watch time, it is what is triggering the growth.

[@moritz9294]

Well deserved attention, I feel like you do the best videos in this special kind of car content on KZbin right now :)

[@BuilderCreator]

Thanks that's a big compliment, seeing the amount of stuff out there.

[@dkgolfnut]

Great work. Just stumbled across this channel and am impressed with the work and attention to detail

[@azalli]

This is awesome; this content is so genuine and it’s a reflection of its creator. Thanks for all of this

[@kiwihame]

What does one need? Aside from incredible vision and world class skills? An IQ of 150, amazing creativity, unimaginable discipline and the patience of a tree would be pretty good start. I am profoundly impressed. Inspirational indeed! I hope KZbin makes you seriously wealthy. Keep this up and that has to be very likely. Amazing!

[@BuilderCreator]

You give me much more credit than I deserve, but thanks, and thanks for watching.

[@Sariyem496]

Thanks sir...this is so motivated. I'm a bit stressed this whole time because i think I'm a bit late to chase my dream building car. So timeline is not the same for everyone i guess. Thanks again for this builds.

[@BuilderCreator]

Still lots of other dreams to chase no matter the time line!

[@vincentpetrone6301]

You are the man I cannot over state how talented you are

[@christianbyachts]

Great story. Thanks for sharing. Really enjoy your work, and these videos. Super talented
