DIY Centre Console - HJ75 Troopy Build (EP18)

[@benjaminbarker4808]

Probably the most professional build I’ve seen on here.

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate!

[@gaojen3365]

It is normal to be your own worst critic. Personally, I think you did a great job, your work is inspirational, as I set out to create my own center console. Thank you for the video

[@Buildin70s]

Liking the extra space for the control boxes. Definitely beats buying a console!

[@ShedBuilt]

Yeah mate %100

[@Tuff22_]

Buildin70s you should make one for your channel

[@jodyreis2695]

When you said you have never done sowing I was like oh this might not end well..... but holy mate you did an amazing job it turned out great

[@usmankazmi5329]

Now this is called craftsmanship! Exactly what I needed as I am working on restoration of 70 series!

[@waqarsheikh1376]

dear usman do you know where i can get same modification?

[@edwinthomas618]

You should be VERY proud of yourself. Great job

[@cntslesfabrication]

It's awesome that you're 100% honest at the beginning of the video that your new to building/fabricating a center console. There's not many people on youtube like yourself because all they care about is view's and could careless about anything else.

[@Keithygeorge]

So glad you've filmed and uploaded this. Awesome efforts and result mate. Thanks.

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate! Appreciate it 🤙

[@mysteriomarvel933]

Fantastic job mate! Very methodical and well engineered. You just increased your resale value. Cheers!

[@nickmcmillan5701]

this turned out so smooth, i was so ready to go ehhhhh but this was so clean, sick video

[@ShedBuilt]

Haha so was I believe me 😂

[@nickmcmillan5701]

Shed Built if you don’t make the video on it chuck a cheeky update on how you manage to work in the console fridge, interested to see how you mount It with the middle pull out ! Loving the troopy dude you’re tempting me to grab one! Hahaha

[@jeremykelly5297]

Dude, it looks like it has just rolled out of the factory... Nailed it!

[@joelphillips6697]

Honestly mate, that centre console looks bloody good! I’m working on my 89 hj75 and this channel has been a huge inspiration. Good on you! You should be so proud and happy with the work you’ve done.

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate! Appreciate that a lot 👌

[@campbellbarnard-green8529]

I cannot believe how well that turned out. From those shitty pieces of mdf just stapled together to that, well done mate!

[@xenawarriorprincess3891]

Man! very impressive and it turned out great! Gave me some good ideas for sure!

[@jymonfernandez8087]

Maatteeee, what a bloody great job. Maybe you should do some more carpentry stuff you did great!

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate!

[@bryanhughes423]

Dude…. What a great job. You made it look so easy I think I might even give it a try!!! Thank you.

[@triple-a-1645]

Inspired and encouraged to build my own 75 series. Keep up the great work.

[@deankay4434]

On the inside of the console where the sharp corner are, if stiffness is a concern, use tin used on HVAC or even roof flashing. It is very thin and if bent at good angles, a strong staple gun or simple screws can be used. This is a gusset to increase rigidity. Also, consider a rare earth magnet for latching the lid. With a paddle bit, epoxy and 4 magnets (Two for top, two for bottom) just make sure they are facing the right direction. I have nothing against Velcro but over time one side will load up with debris or the girls hair. It has to be cleaned even though you have a friction fit now. It just looks cleaner as well. Just future suggestions as it came out great. Got a sewing machine, do the seats. Headliner material is cheap and if glued and sewn on the back of your choice of material, add that extra softness. For patterns, a home improvement store sell Red Rosin paper about $10 USD. It is a meter wide and 80 meters long and thicker than construction paper. Cutting a drawn pattern is easy to transfer as each can be labeled and held with a stick pin. Piping is common as a French Seam. I use air shock tubing as it is cheap and the right size. Best of off-road travels and don’t forget tools & some medical box… Not for you but the guy you meet on the trail who tipped! Safe journeys.

[@BKRcustoms]

For someone that says they have know idea what they are doing that looks mint mate!!

[@haydencondely5187]

This is super impressive. Most dudes wouldn't even attempt sewing. Solid effort mate. Loving the content.

[@odinh89]

This came out incredible

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate!

[@milesasolomon1]

you beautiful beast. everything you touch turns to magic. wish i lived in oz and could get your help! such a perfectionist

[@RichieHProductions]

This came out bloody mint! Might have to start up a upholstery businesses now mate!

[@colinross6259]

Not bad bloke. The whole thing looks OK. Nice one.

[@danielparker8232]

Been too keen for a new video, it looks good so far (edit) Finished the video and it was too good.

[@hunterinternational4123]

Wow! What an amazing job mate. It’s come up great 👍🏽

[@ShedBuilt]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@supramarco6775]

I was a bit sceptical with your console. Well it turned out great mate. Thanks for sharing.

[@ronaldellerby5715]

Looks mint .. you did a great job

[@AllTerrainAction]

Results a ripper mate 💯

[@ShedBuilt]

Thanks mate! 🤙

[@bigoz1734]

Honestly man if you ever get the time have this as a side hustle because there aren't a lot of homemade basic centre consoles on the market. Most are super high end 79 roof mounted or centre mounted and they cost big $$$ for very basic setups with not much space benefits. This one looks so good and actually utilises the space quite well

[@ChaunceyBronson]

That’s great bro, I drew a lot of inspiration from this build

[@nepuunmedia]

Doesn't look first time at all, well done mate!

[@UnstopableFilms100]

This is unreal, looks very professional !

[@graeme02]

New subscriber. I just binge watched every one of your videos. Nice job on the troopy. I see you haven’t put up a video for a while, I hope you are not getting bored with it all because you’re on a roll with the old girl. She’s looking better with each episode.. cheers M8

[@chrinamint]

Wow... Nicely done, sir! Excellent!

[@mickwolf1077]

I was thinking oh mdf, but you nailed it (& glue). Looks damn good and useful too. You've inspired me to have a crack at a custom console for a 60 in fibreglass.

[@jacksneddon2106]

this is mint, givin cruiser consoles a run for their money. You should do window armrests like the ONESTONE cruiser stuff next.

[@ShedBuilt]

I do have a design in mind actually 😏

[@WillsLandcruiser]

Love your work mate. That came out professional as 🤌👌

[@JH-sz8tl]

Great job mate. I've got a 2WD Toyota Hilux and there is no storage, constantly losing things behind, under or beside the passenger seat as they roll off while driving. Have been wondering how I could create a custom centre console and your video has provided a lot of useful information! Well done on the sewing too, I bought a sewing machine and overlocker to help restore some old outdoor furniture, so I know how frustrating yet rewarding it can be when you get it right!!

[@kainebarker4185]

Unreal, well done!! 👌🏼
