Streamliner Revival !! - Episode 1

[@PaulAsselstine]

Looks good to me.... exceptional fabrication skills...

[@bobbycole5597]

Ideology is what made mankind get this far. It's either going to work or were going to make it work. Your talent in the present came from past. How many people thought the write brothers were crazy. There are leaders and followers. .your talents are hopefully passed on.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thank you

[@gregtaylor6146]

I like THAT ..... looks like it'll work splendidly!!!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks

[@joell439]

👍👍😎👍👍 - TNW Engineering - the most prestigious applied-engineering degree ever earned. Mike, I would never bet against anything you set your mind on.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Yep, I took it and ran. a lot of my parts are stamped TNW Eng. lol

[@willlothridge3197]

Very interesting project!!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thank you

[@joewolf4483]

What a work of art ... that's gonna be one nice streamer ... lookin forward to the videos on it ...

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching

[@GeneralPoison]

The streamliner was when I noticed your work on Instagram, and gotta thank you for sharing..

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for following a long for all these years

[@randywl8925]

Ad far as content and the direction you want to take it..... I don't think id change much. The sheet metal shaping, the welding, bending frames, designing the cars, suspension and the "trailer that wouldn't work" I think everything youre foing appeals to everyone that watches your channel. If you focused on one or two things like welding dnd shaping sheet metal..... well, other guys fo that. You do it all, and to me, its a really nice package.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for the feedback. Just trying to keep the content diversified enough to remain interesting for new and returning viewer

[@Mxyme]

Beautiful creation ⭐️🍀

[@pamdunn8454]

the whole bag of tricks - wow amazing craftsmanship , mind bending engineering and tasteful flowing design "hats off my friend" home run , looks like you have most of the chassis tact welded together ? - impressive building the buck right on the car , no doubt the body will fit exactly . . . . . . Amazing Mike

[@joeschlotthauer840]

This is fantastic. I envy you. More videos on designing, engineering, and machining.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks, but I am nothing to envy, I am just a guy who works hard and focuses on raising their skill level every day

[@joebloggs6206]

A masterpiece of engineering, Bravo.

[@og190]

I love what you are doing with the stream liner. I also like the video's that you have been puting out you are a 1 man shop and you can't build efficiently if you have to keep resetting camera's keep doing what you're doing and ill keep watching.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks I appreciate it

[@anthonyprendergast99]

What you are doing is fantastic. I’m amazed how much you can pack into a day. I’m no where near your skill level but you give me inspiration to keep learning and practicing. Merry Christmas 🎄 from New Zealand 😄👍👍

[@bryanb5413]

Gorgeous!

[@daleking8529]

Looking forward to this build!

[@markspooner118]

loveing this some real good ideas to take from this........................

[@paulleague5572]

fantastic keep up the GREAT work and never give up never surrender

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks, no plans of giving up in sight

[@jeffbonifield8981]

The roadster is a spectacular work of art on every level....and I am sure that this is sure to follow! Looking forward to seeing you again in August!😎

[@dougwernham5209]

Fantastic project, thanks for the video.

[@GarageBoundLLC]

Insane project.

[@RonCovell]

Mike - I saw your streamliner project when I was at the Detroit Autorama several years ago, and loved it. The shots in this video allowed me to zero in on many more of the details, and I have an even better appreciation of what a magnificent job you are doing. I also enjoyed hearing the history of the project, and how it fits in with all your other projects. My first trip to Bonneville was in 1963, and I remember the Readhead streamliner from those early days. I agree that it's one of the best-looking land speed cars ever, and you are on track to build something even better. I certainly look forward to more videos on this project!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks Ron, if you make it out this way you are more than welcome to swing in and give it another once over. I am envious you got to see the redhead on the salt.

[@floridian7143]

Looking forward! Merry Christmas!

[@maegenyoungs2591]

Those who think they know it all, REALLY ANNOY’S THE ONES THAT DO! We live in a society of keyboard fabricators .. They watch to much KZbin, and want to be relevant.. so if they can drag you into a debate, They got you, so as long as you ignore them, they stay stupid, and can’t be a part of something special I see the engineering brother, crazy cool stuff, I love the creativity. There is 10 ways to get the round peg into the square hole

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for checking it out.

[@chriszucker7500]

Awesome vision and execution Mike. Great to hear the back story on T&W Engineering. Don't know if your aware of Armor Dry Coat. It's an amazing, water soluble, flash rust preventer. I have pieces in my garage that have zero flash rust after 10 years. Sprays on like Windex. BTW.. who won your metal shapping class from merchandise sales. Love your content!!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching. I dont deal with flash rust much, this project has some due to me taking to Bonneville a few years back for pre inspection to this point. mostly the car has a nice layer of dust lol. The winner of the class giveaway was Rachel S. I plan to do more class giveaway contests in the future when i get some new shirt logos in.

[@Eric-z1z9l]

Wow absolutely beautiful and a great message to all the keyboard warriors

[@TheCarlhungness]

Masterful fabrication. Great to see a journeyman push himself, keep up the phenomenal work.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks, will do!

[@randywl8925]

The company name is priceless. ...just don't add Alfred E. Newman as your mascot. 😁

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks lol

[@jackpledger8118]

Really great seeing this project pick up again. Will be very interesting to follow and learn from.

[@randywl8925]

What a fantastic project. I've watched enough of your videos that I'm a bit flabbergasted that anyone would doubt you. On thing that would be great to bring up and talk about is the speed. You're talking just under/just over 200mph or is that number the initial goal? I asked because I'm sure a lot of subscribers watch drag racing too and are pretty accustomed to 180's to 230's in the quarter mile with 468, 540, 572 ci big blocks. Nothing whatsoever as far as I can see is comparable between these two types of racing. The length of the course, fuel consumption, fuel requirements, and especially engine type and engine size. I just thought it might make an interesting chat.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching, and the feedback. The talking points you mentioned would be great talking points

[@danielbuck]

love all the shop made stuff!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thank you

[@russtuff]

This is badass, I'm excited to see the progress.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching, I am excited to get back on it

[@clintonstevens1285]

never let then run you down never let them run you over

[@mikeclarahan6770]

Yay!

[@petem6291]

Mike , I believe if N.A.S.A sent you a drawing you could build the next space shuttle ........

[@cornfieldcustoms]

thanks, but I wouldnt say all that, I am not all that smart and really dont know anything about Flight or rockets

[@xozindustries7451]

Very nice, my only question is about redundant systems, I’m the chain steering would it be better to use two separate chains in case one breaks at speed?

[@cornfieldcustoms]

You could add a double roller gear and another chain if you wanted. The likely hood of the chain breaking is extremely low. It is high load chain with a 2000 LB rating. I will never be able to apply that kind of force by hand with a butterfly wheel. Add in the fact it will be driven maybe 15 miles a season before tearing down and inspected. So for its purpose and application I feel more than confident in a single chain.

[@bake162]

That….. that will never work attitude you have will never work 😮

[@cornfieldcustoms]

I dont have a TNW attitude

[@bake162]

I know, just kidding

[@stevehamilton9418]

Starting an episode out nay saying on the nay sayers and switching to “I this”, “I that”, “I changed this and engineered that”…one can only wonder how much narcissism goes into all that self promotion! How about less babbling and more doing!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Lol thanks for watching. Sorry my work, and talking about a project makes you feel I have narcissistic tendencies. Your insecurities do not dictate how I operate. The reason I said I did this of designed that is because I did since I am a one man shop. I also have plenty of other videos with a lot more doing so make sure to check those out. Again thanks for watching and supporting the channel

[@stevehamilton9418]

@@cornfieldcustoms That juvenile comment about insecurities is laughable…and you still turned it into something about you-( ..doesn’t dictate how I operate! ). That response only further validates what was said! In any event, good luck!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

@@stevehamilton9418 🤣

[@zedostenso3069]

My thinking of You Tube watchers is that no one is making them do it. If you don't like the content or host don't watch it, instead of complaining because it's not up to their standards or expectations. Seems narcissistic is just a point of reference, someone saying your narcissistic makes them narcissistic if you think about it. Love the project. What do you think it will weigh when it's completed? Good luck.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

@zedostenso3069 thanks for watching. Projected weight is around 4000 lbs

[@chrisbrown2174]

Great to hear you're digging into this project again. Can't wait to see the progress 👍

[@cornfieldcustoms]

You and me both!

[@dennisschickling2249]

Looks Great. Looking forward to seeing more. With you being you, the Videos are fine with me. Thanks. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching as always and the feedback

[@larryreece1403]

I always thought that Diesel Streamliner record could be one of the easier records to break. Especially with the new Cummins 2.8. I’ll be looking for it when you get it finished.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Same here. when i started this i went through the book and found engine classes i thought were most achievable

[@petersmith1076]

Looking forward to this. Took me 15 years to get my dream on the road.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks, this one is just a lot of work compared to most cars i build.

[@davidwatt73340]

Beautiful craftmanship. It will be stunning.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thank you very much!

[@adambergendorff2702]

Your talk answered a lot of why did you do it that way questions, I really enjoyed just the photos at the end even more than video, I could keep going back much easier than stopping a video, and your work looks Phenomenal!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Glad you enjoyed it! and thanks for watching

[@samperras]

Wow!

[@pjofurey6239]

Just found the channel whilst looking into bar bending , I’m restoring a 1940,s Walker turner bandsaw , and wanted a period looking stand .have fun at bonneville! We travelled 8000miles to race motorcycles there 09,11,12 ,13 …. Nothing like it !

[@65cj55]

Good Engine choice..

[@cornfieldcustoms]

I think so, Diesel records are obtainable and with the new crate 2.8 it just makes sense

[@prohaska1985]

Man, I dig the name of the company! As a fellow builder/fabricator you are 100% on point. Especially with the comments. But keep going it’s interesting seeing another talented fabricators work. I dig it!

[@theoldstationhand]

Yep, you are definitely a metal Guru! Cheers

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks but I wouldnt say that, i am just a guy who likes to build stuff

[@theoldstationhand]

@@cornfieldcustoms yeah right, I like to build stuff too so I know when someone is a cut way above the rest. Keep up the great work, it does take time, especially when you design as you go. And yes, I have a few of those long term projects as well. 🙃

[@chrispy1965]

My dreamcar a classic Fiat 500 with turbo engine is this 15 year in the making.

[@kennethstaszak9990]

Sounds like it's going to be your version of Bad Obsession's project Binky. Or my Falcon that I've been working on since 2001.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Some times large undertakings just take time

[@edsmachine93]

Awesome car the streamliner build. The craftsmanship is awesome. So are the design characteristics. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week.

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for watching

[@johnnym1320]

This is a beautiful project! Love the engineering. I've just finished 4 year build of my new dragbike, Like yourself i build everything myself. looking forward to the updates!!!

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Thanks for checking out the streamliner video

[@martinmiller6482]

Love the concept The streamliner and all the engineering that went into it. Would like to know how you been bending the aluminum L channel for the inter structure

[@cornfieldcustoms]

Cut strips, bent into L’s on the press brake, then used the kick shrinker/ stretcher to shape

[@yt650]

“That Will Never Work” is applicable in almost every industry or situation. Been there done that. Beautiful workmanship and I certainly appreciate the videos.
