Don't apologize for the "crappy" camera work. It's far better than a lot of channels. For starters you are using a tripod so your viewers don't get seasick. The biggest thing is that you focus on the work that you are doing in a manner that makes it easy to follow. Thank you for your time and effort. Very educational content.

@@wayneblackwell4609 this is what it takes to fix these after market panels, they do not fit, at all, ever! I mean if you don't mind your body lines jogging all over the side of the car, your wheel wells to be completely different and nothing to fit properly go for it, but if you want stuff to fit well, look good and match you need to refine the after market panels to fit. Also not every car has aftermarket panels and having the skill to build what you need goes a long way. Thanks for watching!

He's a panel beater, not a mechanic..

[@yestervue4697]

@@lewiscollins1045 Yes, maybe a "panel beater" but one applying great refined mechanical skills to shape raw materials into another form. It is all mechanical skills whether shaping metal or tuning a combustion engine...says a very skilled highly experienced industrial construction worker who started his career in 1985. I have countless times applied my mechanical skills to just figure out a solution to a problem for pay. That is what I currently do now for a living, in fact, and that is I advise by drawing on my mechanical experience to apply it to a situation in a way as to avoid many costly holdups on a project before the first step even begins. So I am still being a mechanic "with my hands in my pockets" so to speak being paid to, in quick time in my head review an entire construction process from beginning to end in a self-generated simulation model running it multiple times to see where glitches can occur before they get the chance to stop progress. Industrial Electrician/Welder/Framer/Sheet Metal Fabrication/Mechanic/Wood Working/Blacksmithing are my main backbone skillsets usually relied on the most, but I am also very skilled in Primitive Technologies, (stone, bone, wood, fire shaping/modding, etc) Primitive Boyer, BackWoods and Off-Grid living in long term situations and even own my own commercial sewing machine as a man and make my own survival clothing by hand myself just using the machine to radically cut the time it takes to hand stitch something. Besides, being in my 50's it is rough on my now corrective lense dependant eyes to look so long so close up at such small things as threaded stitches for hours. So yes I really can say I possess a cornucopia of real very serious hand skills in widely varied forms and areas, and will always point out that every skill mentioned or referred to in this reply, even the brain only applications, is purely mechanical! He is a master level mechanic indeed.

At any event I sit and watch my son struggle and it breaks my heart because the stupid f******* schools Teach college preparatory for 100% of the students when reality is only 18% of them and up going to college so what happened to the other 82% of kids there are no shop classes there is no vocational training offered for free in schools and it sucks. My son and I build old Chevy trucks and do custom welding and fabrication ourselves but it is encouraging to him to see a secondary perspective in his learning curve. He has 80HD and is very artistically in tune and associates metal fabricating with graphic design just real world design as what he calls it we are out in the garage every weekend without fail. Or the drag races or some other event where we're getting out from in front of ATV or sitting behind a phone. I'm so dedicated to this that I do not have any social media I do not allow my son to take his phone out of his pocket while a vehicle is running and he is sitting in it I feel that electronical devices are the downfall to creative thinking and the challenge of intellect and exercising your mind within this world not to mention the breakdown of verbal expression that's lost through text print.
