Ed's Golden Nugget Finally Got Brakes!

[@alsims8280]

I hope folks realize that every piece of the Golden Nugget has been touched by many hands, at each stage even. This is the definition of a custom built vehicle. Building a rig like this entails a lot of fitting and re-engineering. In a custom shop, these builds often take a couple of years. You guys are doing a great job. Kudos to all involved!

[@javabeanz8549]

I saw a custom restoration on Graveyard Cars that took years. I think part of it was probably hunting down original parts though. Something this build couldn't do many times.

First, great job on the nugget. Just an FYI. Stainless bolts will cold weld if you don't use a little grease when assembling them. Also they can be pretty weak. Think grade 2.

[@JGuraan]

​@@edmundanderson657 Idk, it's worked fine for me every time. And that's hundreds of times. From what I understand of the concept, the welding isn't so much a problem because it truly bonds the threads together, but because it makes the surfaces rough enough to massively increase the friction between threads. Thus adding penetrating lubricant, even at disassembly, allows what little actual joining has occurred to be broken.

Good to see the Nugget project moving along! You guys do great work, I love watching all the projects you do! I really enjoy the 'Story time with Paul and Ben' or someone else talking about the 'good old days' with Paul. Good job editing Michelle! You all seem like family to many of us out here in viewer land!

Every episode from all involved just builds my anticipation for when Ed gets to see the end result. Looking forward to it!

Well done 👏 it's nearly finished ⏰️ And all done by many expert hands I hope you all get a small momento of the golden nugget 👏 it would have been nice to have got everyone's signatures on a inside door panel 👍 so over time Ed will see how many of you were involved 👍 you have all done an amazing job x

I'm reading all the comments about Ben joining the team. He was a great addition but everyone on here has been a good choice and I enjoy all the different personalities.
