THE SKID FACTORY - Barra Powered Bedford Van [EP8]

[@271production]

What I like about Al is that he's a proper mechanic, that builds stuff that WORKS. Mild steel pipe: works perfectly fine. No need for a full stainless TIG weld exhaust. Same with all the brackets. A grinder and a hammer are more then enough for most fabrication work. No BS with all kinds of fancy stuff. Just proper stuff that relies on being smart about it, not just throwing money at a project.

"Plumbed back to atmosphere" haha

[@jacobsavage9942]

Joshua Fuller lets be honest, we know there will be a screamer

[@TheCuttz1984]

I was going to say the same thing mad me lol....so good

[@Finnspin_unicycles]

I'm guessing whoever makes this thing legal will not know..

[@mikenugent8719]

Haha i was thinking the Same Thing haha

[@RejectedOutcast]

thats legal. its plumbed back to atmosphere, its simple....your all blind if you cant see its turned back into air via the flux incapacitating actuator. so really its hot air being magically filtered through gfb's (FIA) unit. hahahaha plus its a south Australian car no one will get under the car to look unless it gets put in for a full inspection because of power skids or some hater

[@bigkeg9173]

"We done messed up" Woody's thinking "we?" 😎😎

[@terrorfarce]

When Al and Miles were first on MCM and their nicknames were said, I figured Al would have a lot to live up to being Turbo Yoda, but he has never disappointed. This series has shown how much he knows and how awesome he is. Al, you have all our respect here in the States. Thank you for showing us how to do what you do. I've learned so much watching your work through the years. If you're ever in the Kansas City area, please drop a line and I'll gladly take you for a nice dinner.

[@c.spencer2338]

This is one of the best if not the best car improvement shows I have ever seen, I have been watching motoring shows for 20+ years. the level of detail into the welding, type of steel and the technique used is what sets this show above the rest. Its not one of the major network shoes that just shows you 10-20 secs of welding and "finsh" . Seeing the niddy griddy helps me wrap my head around some of these things. Keep making more content guys!

[@mikeymasi]

The bad obsession lads giving a bit of banter to skid factory. Love it

[@anther4520]

Maybe someone should do a count up of all the cars both teams have worked on and helped complete on camera... how's that for a bit of banter? ;)

[@2011metalmaniac]

where was this?

[@mikeymasi]

2011metalmaniac on the latest episode of project binky at the start. It's only out for patrons at the moment but I think public release of the episode is tomorrow

[@2011metalmaniac]

omg theres another binky episode??

[@mikeymasi]

2011metalmaniac correct

[@Hoggdoc1946]

I have to agree with Charley Smith, your craftsmanship is simply brilliant. I especially enjoy Al's "MAD" welding skills and how easy he makes it look to make up complex tubing runs.

[@Inntox]

My favourite series on KZbin. No super flashy stuff, just shows you everything that's going on and explains it well. Keep it up lads :)

[@JordyValentine]

yep love it, I hate how other channels will over explain things, I've worked in the auto industry my entire working life, I know why they're doing something, I just want to watch them do it not have every minute detail explained to me

[@kdwebster26]

Man the after credits are great!!!

[@dallasvanwyk]

Who is hiding behind the shirt?

[@DanteTheAbyssalBeing]

Quickly and calmly bashing out an exhaust that looks miles better than anything some "professional" exhaust shops charge stupid money for. Turbo Yoda is bloody awesome.

[@davidolsen6446]

I reccomend this channel to anyone with an interest in fabrication or car building. You're knowledge and no bullshit way of explaining your processes and insights is fuckin' sick. Can't forget the man behind the camera/computer, Woody loving what you're doing. Anyway yeah this is long as shit keep killin it fellas

[@shanegrangrad8559]

The amount of smarts inside that bald head is truly remarkable . So good to see you willing to pass it on. Love the trombone sound . Best show on the net by a long long shot . Thankyou

[@nooranik21]

The good old Lookaway brand welding mask. My preferred brand. Good to see it is endorsed by The Skid Factory.

[@crzy11000]

Noorankin -do you use safety squints for grinding also ?.

[@888johnmac]

yeah, best used only for small / quick tacks however

[@rolly4x4]

I like how he looks right at the camera each time

[@davidblanck4131]

These details from experience are why you are truly known as the master of your craft. This makes me feel confident I'm capable of finishing my insane project some day. You almost make it look easy. Thanks again.

[@za289w]

you think you as good as AL?

[@aidansharples7751]

"some day" = if al can do it in a month I can probably do it some time before 2040.

[@mr33spitnbarz28]

Spiritpoweredinternet let's just say I'm a really close family friend..

[@davidblanck4131]

What Aidan said.

[@mr33spitnbarz28]

Spiritpoweredinternet I said we had a session,she loves the bongs champ

[@ghomerhust]

yay for more bara action! this old van is just so insane. everything underneath is done just right, and an old can of a car on top. its brilliant

[@alifadaei2217]

My God.....I feel like this thing will never finish. Love the show boys.

[@jaredanthony8070]

"Nods enthusiastically" 😂😂😂😂

[@ELsplitterz]

You guys are nailing it. Better produced content than most of what's on the tele. Funny, informative, and aesthetic 👍👍👍

[@BenPitcher]

"its supposed to be corny" - says every dad joker ever

[@dave_n8pu]

That exhaust system looks better than the vehicle it's being put on, glad those guys at MCM mentioned your channel. This groups of videos on this Barra is what I ran across first so I have been doing a binge watching getting up-to-date. I like what you guys are doing.

[@breakshot7451]

when you watch finnegan and his exhaust welding he goes all out and ballaballa with gas in the tubes and on and on , when i weld my exhausts i do it the same way you guys do it. it s not that i doesn t love to watch these perfectionists at work but it would be to time consuming for me. love your show !! and finnegans miss roadkill greetings from germany

[@MitchJ11]

Such an awesome build. Thanks al and woody for producing educational and entertaining content!!

[@mcmtv2]

Thanks Mitch! Glad you're enjoying it mate

[@kevinbowers3917]

Love the vids, not the music. The fabrication is world class. Best channel on KZbin in this genre.

[@4EverSuzuki]

All these other channels, but Turbo Yoda is the G.O.A.T

[@feenyx6394]

*nods enthusiastically* Top notch stuff fellas!

[@joshcallaghan9432]

This is the best car show on at the moment I reckon. I learn so much and get so much inspiration from you guys! Keep it up!

[@MrSlash00r]

Who thought an exhaust pipe could be so gorgeous? Nice work lads. Keep em coming.

[@lcmperformance9409]

This video needs share to so many “ professional “ The welding talk is absolutely brilliant Iv always said mig is great same for the normal steel piping but people still argue back Your The master I hope One day you’ll take over the custom automotive KZbin and I hope you go far you deserve it

[@joshdavies9218]

Best series on youtube hands down! Fantastic content with all the skid factory vids

[@Stevme0001]

I rarely comment. But I got to say this is one of the best channels I've ever watched. I'm to the point now where I can't wait for the next segment to come out. I have to agree well done.

[@AndyQuinton]

All the love in the world for Al's no bullshit advice.

[@ChristmasCrustacean1]

"Dunning Kruger Motorsport" HAHAHA thats an awesome name

[@haraldzurnieden1920]

I know I heard that and just about woke up the better half laughing like a maniac.

[@ChipsNeeson]

Who said the Germans didn't have a sense of humour?

[@AkatarawaJapan]

Perfect name. Even better than Cockford Ollie.

[@Kalimerakis]

how is that funny?

[@JordyValentine]

I dunno, Cockford Ollie is pretty good

[@gregoryaul2005]

Your welcome Al it's fun to watch and learn from u thanks

[@lachlanhum5092]

I'm loving these skid factory builds I'm a mechanic and work on some classics and performance builds. I have found what I have learnt from your videos is helping me in my work and home builds. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for Wednesdays, il see you next week

[@TobyWhiteUK]

Brilliant videos guys. One note. I was watching on the main channel and then saw the skid factory lanyard. That was the first I’d heard of this series... so binge watched every series up to this one.

[@pauljsims]

This channel gives me so many ideas for my own projects, here in the UK 🇬🇧, and I’ve learnt so much. Keep it up, I’d love to see two episodes a week, but I know it’s time consuming editing the videos. 👍🏻👊🏻👌🏻

[@MADTAS4]

nothing better than poking a stick at some flange.

[@thomasphilyaw8593]

Best channel on KZbin!!! Turbo Yoda has really come into his own and has stopped being Mighty Car Mods side kick extra guy. Loving it from Virginia, USA

[@xpomov_yar]

Смотришь ролики - прям белая зависть... Работают же люди.

[@robinb.3632]

This channel is just awesome. It's so down to earth, I love it. I love how you guys just seem to slap on parts and make it work while it's not supposed to. Keep up the good work fellas!

[@danbob1650]

When skid factory pops up new video..it feels like a great present u got when u where a kid on Christmas morning

[@andrewdrabble8939]

Can't wait to see this finished. It's going to be mental

[@cgrecommended]

That lemon squash had 4 less X's than I expected.

[@captnjaygreybeard6394]

So glad you decided to make a youtube channel. Lots of great info, tricks and tips. Video editing is very well done too, cheers

[@ChristmasCrustacean1]

[@vobrasolo]

AL is the man ! " Turbo Yodda"

[@BigDaddyGdog]

Now the best channel on youtube. So happy everytime a new video comes out. Well done Sir turbo yoda

[@Shady-Shane]

there is something very satisfying in pronouncing the word 'flange' a wonderful gordy sound not a silly tinny sound,

[@BorisFett]

Sick project and that sales pitch at the end was great *nods*

[@xXBantamXx]

Thanks guys.

[@ImBarryScottCSS]

[@Irishpete78]

Awesome builds guys, love your work!

[@taylorpainter127]

I like both shows, and as a viewer it’s great to have to fantastic shows to watch, but skid factory is better I think.

[@InSearchOfReality]

Shameless plugs & peeps referencing to Bad Obsession...made my week!

[@matthewdenham7400]

The screamer pipe that we have plumbed back to atmosphere... Hahaha. Gold!

[@sauliusagintas]

I love music choice. Well done.

[@jordanp6420]

Awesome editing and filming

[@maiishit]

plumbed back to atmosphere thats great love it lol

[@danieltjr5649]

Love behind the scenes awesome episode keep up the great work!!

[@jameshall4385]

Great video. That was exhausting to watch.

[@wendy4096]

Love your show...great tips along the way...especially the split exhaust manifold...were had a solid manifold on our turboed 202 blue engine, now we know why the gaskets kept blowing out...way to much movement. Cheers to a great channel.

[@Drew_P_Bahlz]

Awesome work and editing too! Al makes it all look so easy!

[@onhawaii]

To heat wrap the dump pipe and the wastegate pipe seems to be a good idea. Just to get some heat away from the intercooler hot pipe.

[@hribc78]

you guys are bloody fantastic!

[@aleek4481]

Fantastic OH&S with the welding early on in the vid. Top notch. I guess this is a do add I say and not as I do moment. Seriously, don't try welding without a mask yourself.

[@JoeJoeMoto]

Great job guys! i love how the external gate got plumbed back into...... the atmosphere.... LOL

[@chrishiggins1811]

Amazing al and Woody great progress guys keep it up

[@glensgraphix]

When I clicked on to watch this there was only 1 view shown. Now I have watched it there are 796. It's amazing how quickly these numbers increase in a short time. I have loved every episode and I will keep watching, even if they are shit :)

[@JAKEYboii3]
