doublewide6 Repairs LLC Clear, concise, Well Done!!!

[@ronmeidlinger249]

great process

[@mollet6097]

Hey man, I don't usually comment on these homemade DIY videos but I wanted to let you know you did a great job. Not only were your instructions simple and concise, but you spoke really well. Nothing annoys me more than people who um & um through these and waste time trying to search their minds for what they want to say. Thanks

[@saa7742]

Good idea, great job executing it. It is nice to see how sometimes one man sees it differently than another and comes up with a solution with things on hand. Keep up the fixing, I need ideas, all my stuff is falling apart and I ran out of duct tape and bailing twine!

[@johnbrevard5966]

Great fix...You really are creative in repair methods!!!...I have owned an exhaust shop for years and love making stuff like this....but I have to say this is genius!!!

[@ron4378]

Yes a great video, this is a good example of what we in the Army called “field expediency”, we found ourselves making things work with a minimum of tools or material and repair parts. Keep up the great work!

[@fenixdesigns]

...and in the non-military world we call it "MacGyvering"... lol :D

[@1crazynordlander]

Don't you just love how this stuff is engineered sometimes? Another nice tip from you. Thanks!

[@doublewide6]

+1crazynordlander Yes the manufacture the fastest and cheapest they can.

[@binksm689]

Thanks, Dude! A year since the last comment and you're still helping people!

[@Blakehx]

Brilliant thanks! I'll definitely put this to good use!

[@DustinRogersinMO]

Nice work man. Wish I had seen this years ago when I was working on a bunch of quads.

[@waltp3373]

Great job. I've been doing this kind of plastic repair for many years. Just one thing to add - if you don't get the metal piece in far enough before it cools, you can press it in further with a soldering gun as it heats it up again.

[@douglasthompson2740]

Good tip. If you need more strength I have found roughing it up on the inside with sandpaper and using fiberglass cloth with one of the marine two part epoxies (I happened to use West System) does the trick. You can build it up as thick as necessary. I did the fan shroud on my truck six or seven years ago with a couple of layers of cloth (chop strand matt actually is even stronger and tends to give a tapered edge where important). Even in the hot environment it is still as good as new. It would be u/v sensitive so a protective top layer of paint would be needed if out in the sun. Now if there were a way to repair those little spring tabs on plastic electrical connectors on cars etc.!! Made to fail. Take care. Doug

[@NirreFirre]

Saving the wallet, mind and the planet one smart repair at a time! Keep em coming, plastic trims and body work are especially hard to fix and, for some strange reason hmm, expensive..

[@retrorestore]

Saves trying to plastic weld and it's a strong repair. I'll have to remember this one. Cheers Martin

[@doublewide6]

+retrorestore Plastic welding is not as strong as this method or as easy.

[@tonyholt90]

That was a handy bit of information ! Thanks for sharing ...

[@unknowww2]

Thanks dw6 for this trick. Good life.

[@just1nicmechanicalwelding82]

[@larss337]

Thanks for good tip on how to fix very common and extremely annoying problem. Question; what is advantage with aluminum wire? I would have guessed it would be music/piano wire.

[@Sniperssx]

thanks i have enjoyed your sample step totally awesome

[@tellmesomething2go]

I`v been using that torch since I can`t remember when. Say`s it first available 2005. Thought I was using it longer than that. But good trick.

[@Cradley684]

Great tip Thank's, everybody throws away plastic things these days because of problems like this , because it's plastic and it break's they think it's broken or ruined, I have made one or two things like brackets just with a heat gun wish people were more aware of this !!! have a nice day Brian UK .

[@justme-ve3oj]

Nice idea, thabks for sharing it, mechanic here from the philippines

[@stormman8393]

Brilliant work, mate. Would never have thought of that.

[@jamescalifornia2964]

Cool repair . Likely stronger than the original !

[@genehensley767]

[@mr.motormaster9881]

[@mert017cop]

[@jasonthewiczman5442]

Awesome repair job so much better than replacing plastic it's expensive Suzuki motorcycle one of the quarter panels how to crack we had a plastic weld it from behind then we paint it

[@johnchristensen3030]

fencing pliers, claw hammer, and a propane torch to fix plastic. Awesome

[@HarmonHeat]

Is that a Charles Parker & Co vise? I have a very old vise that looks identical to some of the C Parker Co vise's but mine is unbranded

[@bardos]

Very cool work

[@edumaldonado5059]

[@MrCoolerdave]

very smart idea...well done video too..thx for posting

[@doublewide6]

+MrCoolerdave You are welcome I'm happy you enjoyed people.

[@slev8871]

Genius! Thanks.

[@ienvy_exlexr5343]

Thanks dude you really helped me out 💪

[@danr.graham9331]

Good presentation, DW-6. Perhaps we could just use a pair of pliers for holding the hot wire. So many items we have break and we just throw it away without trying to repair it - saving time and dollars. Some items are made to break [such as plastic connectors, etc.]. [Thanks for holding back on wild music or almost speaking English.] Waiting for your next video.

[@kelliebrock7412]

Nice. Mike.

[@dsamulincov]

Good work.

[@wintermachine]

slick fix! that pliers is a fencing pliers but I'm bettin you know that

[@kashmir1504]

[@michaelmcdonald9236]

Good video, but I was looking for a fix on my tail light asm. both attaching point are broken off, not sure how or why?

[@allennoftz6610]

Great idea. Could save a lot of bucks.

[@paulbrown8370]

Great idea.

[@paulsjunkcars]

Very clever!

[@doublewide6]

+paulsjunkcars Thanks, I'm happy you enjoyed it!

[@ahorseman4ever1]

Great! Very useful video

It's probably stronger than the original. Looks good.

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

Hi I have a question, I made the mistake of putting a side cover in the oven to quick dry the paint and turned it too high so it sagged a bit. I know real bonehead move. Side panels are hard to come by due the age of my bike so I intend to do it again and form it back into shape but have no clue what temp I should use. can you shed some light on this?

[@MidwestMotoRider]

Very cleaver! Seems like a great fix.

[@doublewide6]

+MidwestMotoRider Thanks.

[@ozzstars_cars]

good idea

[@doublewide6]

+Ozzstar Thanks I this this tip will help tons of people. Sometimes you have to think outside the box.

[@hovermaster939]

Strong work

[@JasonFuller]

Wow - I tried rebuilding my tabs out of epoxy, but they failed after a couple months, can't wait to try this...

[@doublewide6]

Report back how it works for you.

[@curiosity2314]

Nice solution to a problem!

[@doublewide6]

+Curiosity Thanks you. You always take the time to comment and that is wheat you need to get your video seen.

[@beefchickenandfishtacoscen4005]

Nice tip.

[@anton9002]

Good idea!

[@stevesutton9964]

Good idea thanks

[@dennisriblett4622]

Thanks ,I know I will use this

[@jadekayak01]

that IS a good fixup

[@rossdickens]

Cool.

[@x-man5056]

Pretty clever imagineering.

[@guyh.4553]

Smart idea. I have some options now

[@shaneparsons9303]

Yep. Good idea, like it

[@2LateIWon]

Great tip!!!!

[@doublewide6]

+2LateIWon Thanks Comments and thumbs up help the video preform.

[@2LateIWon]

+doublewide6. thought i already had but did for sure now

[@spreadcreekjr1731]

Brilliant

[@aleblanc3547]

You gotta like a man who's smarter than his tools!

[@doublewide6]

+A LeBlanc Yeah you have to know how to use your tools. I don't know how Mattis Wandal figures out his settings for his pantorouter. If I had one of those things I would need my wife to calculate the settings for me, and besides she has been band from my shop for over a year now:)

[@macfisher4004]

Just wish we didn't have to fix so much plastic. Great idea for fixing busted tabs.

[@doublewide6]

+Mac Fisher I run into broken tabs all the time usually I just leave one or two broken and attach the rest.

[@bystandersarah]

Im thinking I can maybe do something like this to fix the broken tab on my fridge door shelf

[@dmo848]

Everyone on my can am ds250 are like this😂 for years is been like that. Bought it like that actually with hopes of fixing it. Damn near 10years later here we are

[@Jaybizz1000]

Wow, nice job man! Hey what kind of nozzle is that on that propane tank and where did you get it?

[@ianporter1957]

It's a harbor freight torch head. I recommend getting a better one though

[@Jaybizz1000]

+Ian Porter oh ok cool thanks a lot man. Well see i have a few of the propane and map gas one's from Benzomatic but none of them get the metal orange but that's ok I love Harbor freight for some tools i will check it out. Thanks again!

[@ianporter1957]

+jaybizz No problem! You do have a good point, it heats things up real quick

[@Jaybizz1000]

+Ian Porter Yez zir, I gotta get me one! =)

[@doublewide6]

+jaybizz The torch I'm using is from Harbor freight. It gets really hot because it broke and I fixed it by removing the jet inside. I would not recommend doing that and I only use that torch in my garage not in my house to light my pellet stove. Anyhow, I like the benzomatic one that I have listed on the link, we had them at work and they worked well for soldering candle holders that the kids were making. Thanks

[@syntrexfpv1347]

genius idea actually

[@thehegt]

use cigarette lighter or bring it inside your house kitchen and use the flame to heat the clip you don't need buy any torch , trust me it works that little clips easy to heat up , i'm a welder and i know that for sure .

[@chicanoforever9005]

Cool hack

[@Roel_Scoot]

Aluminium melts if it is red hot (Al mpt=660 deg. C red-hot iron=800 deg. C). I know that from experience and from Google to back me up.
