    If you ask me, I never get enough of watching your videos, but that said, please do anything that works for you and your family, because even shorter videos are sure gonna be as intertaining and educational as they've always been. Great stuff you're doing!

    Shorter vids is the way to go my friend. It also helps more with growing the channel and views. Lets keep ‘em frequent, mostly cus you’re such a big inspiration. Idk how imma go thru the week without your inspirational vids 😭

    A father myself, I have trouble working on a project, editing a video, and uploading consistently to my own channel so, do what works best for you. I love your content and will keep watching either way!! Great build. My son and I are going to start an axle swap on his Jeep TJ soon. Great inspiration in your content! Thank you.

    I stick welded the axle tubes to the center section of a couple ford 8.8s with 7018. Preheat to 400, wrap in fiberglass insulation to slow cooling. Haven't seen any issues with the welds, one axle was done 7 years ago, the other 2 years ago.

  • @THE_Tyler_Rogers

    Shorter 10-20 minute videos a couple times a week maybe throw in a longer video once in a while but like everyone else has said do what works for you, we are here because we like the kinda work you do, just do what works for you bro!

    Id do whats best for your schedule also. It has been nice when you do educate us with info on what primer, paint, powder coat, tools you recommend, sand blast media, anything really. I do like the longer videos when you take things apart just like this axle, just to watch the process and learn. You do killer work man ill watch your videos regardless and thanks for the learning curve. Ill always support this channel

  • @MonkeyWithAWrench
    @MonkeyWithAWrench ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Heyo! Tip for the next axle. Tig brazing! I've preferred it a lot over welding the center sections.
    Another note: Forgings can be welded. they take a billet of regular steel and beat it into shape. Even cast steel welds quite well. Cast iron cracks because it pulls the carbon into the weld, then the heat affected zone has a crystalline structure that just makes it brittle. thats why the nickel rod works, it doesn't allow the carbon to be pulled into the pool.
    You can easily tell forgings from castings by the parting line. hard to explain, but casting typically have a very narrow parting line as the sand molds fit pretty well. on forgings, it tends to be very wide and have marks from shearing the waste material off. note that all the striations in the parting line are straight and parallel to each other, this helps distinguish from a ground casting. the shearing operation is usually the last operation of forging. they tend to be around 3/16 to 3/8 inch wide on forgings and usually around a 1/16 on castings. This is really handy to know because you can't forge cast iron. It just crumbles. So if its forged, weld on!
    Quick edit: ok, look at the inner C's on the axle. those are forged. your knuckles are cast. generally speaking, knuckles tend to be cast steel so that if you hit something on accident while driving they may bend a bit before breaking. Iron is very brittle, as a result most manufacturers tend to used steel in knuckles.

  • @achilleaustin
    @achilleaustin ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Definitely prefer the longer videos mate, however if it is better for TH-cam smaller videos could help your channel. You’re definitely one of the best channels for this sort of stuff on TH-cam so I am pretty surprised you’re not getting the views that you deserve. You could do shorter videos in parts and then upload a full version of the parts afterwards as well

  • @NATHANBROWN80
    @NATHANBROWN80 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love your content so of course more frequent is better in my opinion. Maybe you can break each project down into a series and organize the content a little more which would also help you with what to create and when to create it. So instead of cutting the plates for a frame and welding all in the same video, plan the project out on paper, and schedule it. One video is the cardboard templates, the next is designing and cutting in CAD, and then the last video could be the actually welding and installing of the plates. This would also give you more content to upload for the same amount of hours worked.

  • @kojisaito9385
    @kojisaito9385 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @StormbornJKU
    @StormbornJKU ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m fine with whatever content you want to put out. Most of the channels I follow release videos every Sunday. Sometimes they’ll throw in another video on like a Wednesday or Thursday, but typically it’s just 1 release a week on Sundays. So I’m cool with that. I wouldn’t want to wait 2 weeks personally for a 40 minute video. I’d rather have a 20 minute video every week.

    @phoenixsmith9433 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would say do a weekly video but do small updates with tips or tricks as the TH-cam reels. I think that would help you most with the current algorithm.
    Plus if a project takes you three weeks, you could put out a complication video as well so those that was the larger videos could have them.

  • @SBAaen
    @SBAaen ปีที่แล้ว

    With the detailed description following the build process, I'll prefer the shorter videos.
    I honestly think I will skip more minutes in a longer video and on the other hand watch the entire thing if it's shorter.
    That being said, do what suits you and your family best - you are the keystone in this channel holding it all up 🙂
    Take care.

  • @SeanFinland
    @SeanFinland ปีที่แล้ว

    I understand shorter videos are easier to edit etc and for some viewers that check videos between breaks, shorter is convenient. A longer video less frequently also has its benefits as you get to see the whole job In one go. Both are good for me. Whats fits your lifestyle may be Best.

    15 Ford Fusion SE 2.5 L How can you tell if strut is bad ? I took severe hit on drivers side wheel and CV axle , lower control arm and the inner tie rod was damaged need replacing . The strut looks fine but some say the strut is likely shot and needs replacing . Took it to this shop yesterday and hopefully start working on it Monday . Some shops sell you on things you don't need
