'Let's Get Welding!' | Barn-Find Porsche 356 Restoration | Episode 13

[@snooziesuzi]

Love this. It's a shame your bro doesn't want to be filmed, but everyone is different and we have to respect this. How lovely that you both have different skills and can help one another. Even though like you say he gave up time in the garden to help you, it's important to spend time together also. I bet you don't get to spend as much time together as brothers that you would like. Suzi Stocker 🙂

The Porsche videos are really getting more interesting! Looking forward to the next one

[@peterhofmann8292]

I look at these videos, and although they are 20 min long, I know that there are hours and hours of work put into this project. Lovely to see metal going back into the car. Last but not least thanks for sharing this.

[@johntisbury]

Very satisfying to get the spot welder sorted and working like a charm. Great to see your progress.

[@grapesodatravels]

Is it wrong the first thing I noticed was Dan's fantastic shorts!? I think it's fabulous that two brothers can share their expertise with each other and enjoy creating together. Great job, lads!

[@frankfanacht1838]

Wonderful, the days of removing Panels are gone! Now the Porsche is growing again!!

[@tonyray2350]

Hi Dom, brilliant job with welding, spot welder now working great. Cannot wait for next Sunday and another episode. Thank you ❤

[@richardedkins8856]

Your Porsche videos are a joy to watch. Onwards and upwards Dom.

[@blownmagnet]

Yes Dom! Onward! Love to see the progress.

[@lancemillward1912]

Dan's the man

[@jonathansharman1243]

Loving these videos, amazing how you can get back to order after the chaos of rusty panel removal. A long job but keep doing a bit every week and it will get done

[@colinnapier6662]

Brilliant to see the rebuild commence. I really like your attention detail even with parts that no one will ever see awesome.

[@JohnDenzel-z3s]

Dom, Your restoration of the 356 has been brilliant… It’s great to see your progress & your excitement when you acquire a new tool!!😁🧰 Wendy clearly loves the limelight!! I look forward to the next instalment! Keep up the great work…👍

[@northfieldguitars7743]

I don’t know of any other KZbin channel that can go from crochet one week to full on Porche 356 restoration the next! Keep up the good work Dom!

[@andrewbegg9944]

My own project has stalled due mainly to life getting in the way. These short Porsche vids are inspirational, it can be done, I will finish the list and crack on with my car. Thanks again Dom.

[@TheMacleod1972]

You know it’s really inspiring to see you work. Makes it feel like you can learn by just doing it and not have to be an expert. Great videos Dom.

[@williamfeeney2020]

Loving these Porsche videos, please keep them coming

[@digitaIgorilla]

Having a spot welder, you're a professional car restoration shop!

[@Andrew-jh5uv]

Awesome Dom 👍 brother Dan 👏👍👍

[@bruceyoung1343]

Feels so satisfying when you figure a way to fix a issue. Jolly Good

[@dougwardle2175]

Chuffed seeing you add metal rather than taking more away. Roll on next Sunday

[@ChrisXif1]

As another commenter stated..."Great Videos Dom"!

[@timstoys1]

Nice work as always.. great to see the coffee cart was finished and being used

[@stephanielongden597]

Definitely enjoying. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful restoration work on your 356.

[@more.power.]

Thanks Dom you have some very clever brothers to work alongside you in the workshop. Cheers

[@motorv8N]

Just brilliant, Dom - the smile on your face says it all. Your 356 series restoration is one of the most enjoyable things I’ve seen in recent memory. Carry on sir and don’t mind us crowding around peering over your shoulder!

[@michaelknox6181]

Sunday is complete! a cheeky pint, cigar and Dom's 356 update!

[@DominicChineas]

Perfect!

[@boblow2186]

Hi Dom. that’s a mighty fine job your doing there. The parts might seem small your putting in but your fixing the panel and keeping all the original spot weld joints will give you a very fine result. As we always tried to do it so it looks original when finished. Glad you got your spot welder going as there a great machine. Great work keep going. Bob.

[@jimcrossley8203]

Brilliant ! I love these videos. There’s actually more Porsche at the end than there was at the start. Onwards and upwards.

[@DavidTYork]

Loving the Porsche project - keep them coming!

[@terrytopliss9506]

Well done both of you for sorting the spot welder, good to see metal being added Dom.👍👍

[@paulwitham8026]

Well done Dom perseverance is the best tool in the box followed by enthusiasm keep it going mate. 👍

[@westaussiejeff1547]

New metal - real progress! Well done you.

[@tonyalvarez486]

Dom...I love the enthusiasm and the pace of the new format! Keep the great content coming and we are ALL sending positive support.

[@DominicChineas]

I really appreciate it, thank you

[@craigcox5586]

You stay so optimistic and smiling. I love it! And I’m loving seeing the Porsche coming together!!!😎

[@paulhiggins8774]

Getting there. Sooooo satisfying when you start construction work rather than demolition work

[@lunabouch]

Such a great update and your brother to help you to move on with the spot welder was….SPOT ON!

[@peterpedroza6683]

These small problems are all part of the journey. Keep the videos coming Dom, really look forward to them each week.

[@DominicChineas]

Thanks for the positive comment

[@SimpsonsClassics]

Love it! Fresh steel is always a good thing!

[@terrywhite5240]

Very nice job Dom. Always good too see people not afraid too learn new stuff and succeed at it as well. Can’t wait for the next round bud…..keeper going all the way from Abbotsford British Columbia Canada

[@Straight_Outta_Hopton]

Great work! Lots of life left in that flap disc, try using it a bit 'flater' so you using the whole abrasive face, not just the outer edge. Still shouldn't be using gloves with power tools either.

[@karlfuller4072]

Loving the regular updates Dom, amazingly inspiring work.

[@paulelliott2861]

Great to see you up beat again dom. loving it. 🎉👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@russellrobson7632]

I know nothing about welding, learning with you. Nice one Dom! 👍🇬🇧

[@patrickbrown7491]

Be great to see the new panels Dom, nice work!

[@glennarnold3970]

hi dom when you start getting into the fiddly welding like pinholes get a piece of flat copper about 5mm thich and hold it behind the pin hole so when you weld it will not blow holes and the weld will puddle over the hole it will also disapate some of the heat from the weld area so less chance of warpage a piece of copper rod works great too for getting into tight places glad to see a smile on ya dial when working on the porsche cheers from down under

[@davido5920]

awesome video Dom. Keep the Porsche series coming👏!

[@ChrisWizzer]

You seem to stop at nothing, it’s extremely inspiring. I love Sunday evenings for this very reason. You could’ve opened the box though! 😂

[@brianmicky7596]

Hi Dom, Glad you got the spot welder fixed, and to see the coffee van up-and working, it's all coming along fine , can't wait till next Sunday, stay safe All the best Brian 😃

[@aidanhowgate5437]

I don't want these to end!

[@chrisbanks5925]

Another great episode Dom . . . one step closer to you and Wendy blasting along country lanes in your classic Porsche.

[@bigmuz_pilot]

Don't forget the weld thru primer under the captive nuts mate! Love your work, inspirational 💪

[@markrobinson3555]

Great to see this coming along Dom! I’m loving the small regular updates. Honestly it’s reignited the passion for my own projects 👍🏻😀

[@helenj8471]

You've turned the corner from destruction to construction! It must feel great.

[@WhitePineSub]

Thank you for the coffee truck update! It looks great!

[@DominicChineas]

Thank you!

[@McElhinney65]

Nice to see you Tiging Dom, so much more refined that MIG.

[@jozsefizsak]

I find this tremendously exciting!

[@profcor1820]

Thanks for the good and educational videos. Greatings from the Netherlands

[@georgeclements2742]

Certainly enjoying the Porsche videos, and good to see the Land Rover coffee vehicle in use: I hope that it proves successful.

[@ericm8811]

Hey Dominic Chinea! One VW type 2 full of thanks for your nice vids! Greetings from Vancouver British Columbia Canada! Ride ride ride!

[@Qspecialman]

Restoration Design are so helpful. For any viewers, do have a look round the tour of their plant in Canada. These are serious people making so great panels. Another terrific video Dom.

[@MartsGarage]

Really great to see some metal going in, Dom. Kudos to your bro for sorting the welder. Well done that man. Glad the nuts welded in ok, I was worried when I saw those projections. Looking forward to the next episode. In the meantime I will continue doing similar jobs on my very rusty 100E. Take care, Mart in Solihull.

[@DominicChineas]

Good luck with the 100e! Love those

[@richardgould240]

Great job Dom, what would we do without our brothers.

[@davidsanderson3902]

great stuff - love the spot welding

[@grahamwalker432]

Love these videos Dom, they are a great Sunday treat for my wife and I. Really appreciate all the hard work, it will look amazing when it’s finished. Thank you😊

[@deanmarskell1518]

Hiya Dom great video and update Nice to see some metal going in your doing great looking forward to seeing the next video keep up the amazing work ♥️

[@simonseeby8405]

Slowly Slowly catchy 956 😅 nice work chaps.

[@ingmarm8858]

One day you will have to learn Ohms law Dom... The breaker tripped because the spot welder wanted more current, a long lead adds resistance and therefore reduces the voltage/current available at the end of the line it does not typically cause the circuit to take more current :-) It now works because you moved it from the 16A to the 32A circuit.

[@rosschurchouse2794]

love watching the car developing slowly, can't wait to see the big milestones when body work is done, motor is done, first firing, assembly etc., but all in good time.

[@kelvinhealey9907]

Well done dom , love watching the new parts going in keep up the good work

[@davidwaldie6227]

Loving this series Dom

[@raydriver7300]

Nice to see metal going in instead of rust being cut out. Great videos, Dom. 🌞

[@joeb2224]

Very interesting, your enthusiasm is infectious! Keep it up. Thanks.

[@richardraby6266]

Magic Dominic, thanks for a great evenings learning and entertainment. this from a fellow who did a last nut and bolt restauration recently on a 1995 Kawasaki ninja M/cycle, which is the bike of MY dreams. Good on you and with your metal work skills I just know that you are going to get there with the car or your dreams.

[@oliverclothier5677]

Weather day on the rig , giving me some great entertainment.

[@ianchappell4199]

SOOOOO enjoy the vids on the Porche. Thanks Dom

[@noonehere1793]

…..i hope you appreciate the fact that you have the time, space and ability to pursue this to its end. I sold my 356 convertible d years and years ago as i realized that i would never have the luxury of saving it, i only hope that the people who bought it did it right as you are doing….👍👍 the time spent on this ADDS time to your life !

[@GregsGarage]

Dom! I love the updates.... You've been inspiring me to lock in a 356 project of my own... I looked at 3 of them this week and I think I have one that I'm going to bring to my shop. Now I need to find a spot welder like yours. Cheers!!!

[@bobingram6912]

This is great watching, you can actually see progress in detail, every little spot weld is exciting, especially that close up so you can actually appreciate what happens. No, TV programmers it doesn't take an hour to turn a rotting wreck back to showroom condition, with your weekly updates we get to see every little part of the process and it's a brilliant watch. Thanks Dom, roll on next Sunday👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@judithbarnett2966]

Thanks. Always. Keep up the great work!

[@art1muz13]

11:43 ''Oh, Oh, AHHHHHH!'' Great!

[@simonlyons295]

Love the little porsche updates. Love seeing the work in real time

[@DominicChineas]

Thank you!

[@MrSoppysod]

Have no fear Dom, I am really enjoying this series of videos and keep them coming! And, of course, thank you so much!

[@Vince1266]

Now your talking, great work

[@jamesianhampton108]

Another great video Dom, keep ‘em coming… you’ll be blasting round the country roads in the Porsche before you know it!

[@Liam1H]

The corner has been well and truly turned. Panels going back in! Congrats!

[@brendawilliams700]

I with Wendy, the noise of that grinder totally put my teeth on edge 😬. Great to see some progress. Well done Dom and Dan

[@colingraham1065]

Spot-on!

[@markhowlett8070]

Outstanding sir. Always looking forward to a new video..

[@AlsETypeResto]

I reckon the difference between your test pieces and the actual car parts is the cleanliness of the metal. A quick rub with a scuff disk might make all the difference to the resistance of the metal. 👍

[@Nick_of_Time]

Your Porsche videos are my favourite. Good work Dom!

[@Timothylaing]

So good. Love the Porsche videos

[@jasonupton6588]

Brilliant work Dom really enjoying the build

[@Robert-cr8bq]

All I can say is, by the time the Porsche is finished, if it does not win competitions, there is no justice.

[@DominicChineas]

Just finishing it will be enough of an achievement for me!!

[@leslieaustin151]

Love this, real progress, and going well. I look forward to seeing the next, and the next… Les in Chester

[@michaelmason5459]

Hi Dom don't forget the spot weld through primer in your excitement. Brother are brilliant. I know lapping panels over and spot welding is original but if you can but weld edges less chance of rust forming between panels.

[@chrismcdonnell8297]

Great stuff again Dom, thanks again.

[@johnsholian4318]

Where would you be without brother Dan and honest Jon? Nice to have reinforcements when you need them! Progress should move along well with the spot welder issues behind you. Nice work!

[@DominicChineas]

I am very grateful!

[@cykelfreak]

The best flapdiscs ive tried is 3m cubritron. cost same as würth but lasted alot longer, and if u pushed to hard on it and burnt the sandpaper on it u just hold it with a soft touch on the metal and it worn away the bad area. U can grind down the outer diameter of the disc on a benchgrinder, hold the disc with the none sanding side towards the benchgrinder with the anglegrinder on and grind away it dust like crazy but u get a new crisp edge on your disc 👍

[@davidgoldsmith5800]

Hi Dominic, well done you and Dan nailed it. What a piece of kit that spot welder is.
