My Porsche 356 Left The Workshop! (But Not Forever)

[@likeakite]

I'd love to see you and John get a TV series...you two together are gold

[@movesky6696]

john the hat / the gold

[@DavidParker]

They don’t need a tv series, they’ve got this. To do this on tv it’d have to be really condensed and would lose what makes this so good

[@aaronledwidge6064]

Agreed I could watch you two all day

[@Timothylaing]

@@aaronledwidge6064 lol that’s going a bit far 😂

[@shedtime_au]

Yeah, they're like Noddy and Big Ears, these two.

[@danielporter8481]

Hi, excellent video. Note, as a bronze casting apprentice many years ago, beware to keep water away from the furnace and crucible as it can explode. Water is heavier than molten metal, it sinks, skins over, turns to steam and the whole pot explodes. Heat your tools dry before use. Keep some sand around to put a fire out with molten metal. Rebar C tongs to get the crucible out, and a ring with 2 opposite rebars welded, one bent 90 degrees to pour the metal, on a brick. Green sand is 1 part clay and 6 parts sand with just enough water to make a fist clump, not much. Be aware. Thank you, Dan Porter

[@lotus7even]

Great video Dom great to see John being more involved makes everyone smile

[@everestyeti]

Brilliant news about your program, partway through the last series my wife got taken into Hospital and very nearly died, she had to have 2 very urgent life saving operations. After getting home from my visits from intensive care I was able to unwind by watching, a brilliant program. And what Stars the guys at Extreme are, hopefully it will help with putting your Porsche back together. 👍🤗

[@bigmuz_pilot]

John is such a positive man, absolute joy to be around I reckon!

[@regfenster]

Love the dynamics between you both, John should really be a regular from now on, and oh great to see some Ranalah action as well, could we get an update from the king of wheeling Geoff Moss as a believe he has one of your prototypes going through its paces?, would love one personally but probably too heavy to sit in the front lounge and beyond my budget, I truly hope you succeed with these amazing rolling machines as from what I've seen available yours are in a different league in terms of quality and history for that matter, absolutely love this channel.

[@russelblackwell6041]

I wish i had a mate like John not because he is a wealth of knowledge with cars but he would be a great guy to be around period always laughing brings a lot of joy to people I'm sure you guys sit down often behind cameras and share a great friendship

[@timstoys1]

John's happiness is very refreshing, your laugh should be bottled and given to the world, what a combo you both guys are! Happy Easter

[@thomaspollock4274]

Life is good. Another Ranalah ready for market AND a new state of the art plasma cutter for the shop AND the new series ready for production.

[@chrisbanks5925]

Great video Dom . . . you and John are the Dream Team.

[@doubleboost]

Welcome to the Xtreme plasma club

[@JeremyMakesThings]

You’ll want to line the furnace with some refectory cement (over the insulation)otherwise the ceramic wool will break down and release fibers I rot he air that are very hazardous to breathe. They don’t usually come lined because it would inevitably crack in shipping.

[@NickandMildred]

I’ll second the above . I put a ceramic wool rigidiser on the one I made then covered it in a cement kiln lining . The horror stories of breathing in the fibres sound nasty .

[@clivebergman1783]

Refectory cement? For building a canteen? I think you mean refractory. 😄

[@Qspecialman]

Great stuff!!!!! That plasma table looks an interesting bit of kit. With all those toys you have now Dom, you will never be going home......

[@malcolmjames1866]

Great vid! You'll love the plasma table. I bought a CNC router a couple of years ago, same principles, just cuts wood instead. I now make guitar and ukulele components on mine. Keeps me off the streets! 🙂

[@Cradley684]

[@darwinsfish]

Boys and their toys! Been watching the Kris Harbour channel and he uses a plasma cutter CNC machine for all kinds of metalwork projects. The CAD looks a bit involved though! Good luck.

[@lawrencebewsey7418]

You too are a class act, brilliant.

[@MakeItMetal]

Welcome to the club Dom 😀 The Xtreme plasma tables are awesome.

[@besenzon1]

Great Old-school video Dom. Loved the Beetle videos but good to be back to Porsche, Ranalah and Honest John ❤️❤️❤️

[@Yew_Tree]

I saw the car in person at the ‘practical classics - classic car and restoration show Birmingham NEC’ in the barn find section, I say car but there is very little left, pretty deceptive on camera but to see it in person you can appreciate the amount of work that needs to be done.

[@DominicChineas]

Glad you got to see it!! Thank you

[@busterboy7505]

Watching Dom and John, what more do you need 👍👍👍.

You have spanned a century or two, the Ranalah to a CNC plasma table, all in one episode!

[@westaussiejeff1547]

Wow! I can''t wait to see the plasma cutter in action! John's a champ - I'm sure you two will have a lot of fun with your new toy.

[@gregwright7070]

Dom....have a look on utube for "Wide MGB". Its about an American guy who sawed a "66 MGB in half lengthwise and widened it using a homemade English Wheel. Such skill !

[@mikenelson6630]

Congrats on the new propane furnace, I hope you find success with it. One tip I've seen from watching another channel, bigstackD Casting - placing a small piece of cardboard underneath the crucible should help prevent it from sticking in the furnace.

[@eddyd8745]

That was a seriously enjoyable episode, love the passion.

[@rennkafer13]

That plasma table will be super useful, I have a smaller one and it's been great. Only thing I'd caution is yours doesn't appear to have a water table under the bed and you may find you want one. They throw major amounts of metal dust everywhere without, and a lot of sparks.

[@DominicChineas]

It does have the water trays I think we will be ok, thank you for the warning!

What I really wish was that I could fund a restoration of my old 1969 Opel GT. It was my first car that I bought when I was 15 and it's still sat in my garage.

Hey Dom, I am a new subscriber and LOVE this restoration project. I went back to see if you had any video on how or where you found this car, but didn't see anything. Can you maybe provide some details on where you found it & how you got it back to your shop? (Any Videos?) I am interested in this projects history before you took possession. Thanks a bunch and keep up the FANTASTIC work!!!

[@dancross1968]

In episode one, at 2 minutes in (kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5rUdIyfbJxggMU), Dom gives a little backstory to how it came about.

[@amstrange1]

If you're still looking for examples of original Ranalahs still out in the wild, it might be worth a visit to Envisage Classic and Bespoke in Coventry.
