I learned alot over the last 15min of your video. Thanks for sharing it is very informative

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

Glad it was helpful!👍

Well, with all those holes the water won't sit in your door and rot it out. You have to make sure you cut out all of your do-hickey holes.😁 You did a good job on that patch. Thanks for sharing.👍👍

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

Thanks, Andy! And I still can’t remember what do-hickey goes in that hole... thanks for commenting! 👍Tony

As always, nice work! I just got in DEEP with the rust demons on my Datsun build. I absolutely hate welding sheet metal because I'm the king of warpage. I'll have to try the compressed air trick when I get to it.

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

Thanks! Yeah, welding sheet metal can be frustrating.

Nice job Tony. The glove joke was good. I appreciate how methodical you are. You should check out the lenox diamond discs, I hate the smell and dust of abrasive discs, the lenox is a nice alternative.

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

Thanks! Lenox diamond disks.. I’ll have to give that a try. Even with a mask on, those abrasive wheels stink.Thanks again. 👍

Love the use of magnets, what did you use for sandblasting? Cant wait to see all finished!

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

I used that dustless sandblaster attachment that I made

Great video, thanks. I have a question did you remove the door from the hinge? I have been trying to remove the pin on the hinge but is not coming out. I even bought a tool Eastwood has for that purpose but not luck. Thanks.

[@ChipsAndSparksGarage]

Thanks, Nan Do. My pins were stuck in the hinges, so I remove the hinges from the doors and the jambs, then I torched the hinges and beat the pins out with punch and hammer. They were tough! To remove the hinges from the doors, I had to drill out the rivets. I know the tool you’re talking about, and not many people have had success with it, on really stuck pins. Good luck, and thanks for watching! Tony
