This is great! I have never understood how they make ply wood bucks. In my mind you would have to get a 3D drawing that you could lay out slices and then measure or calculate critical points to layout each planer buck. A lot of work before you even start the actual build. Most of us are not interested in exact reproductions, just a "look alike". This method gives you a 3D view much easier. And if something doesn't look quite spot on, it can easily be changed. Great idea!!!
Cyclekarts builders will find, this is A wonderful video, People who attempt to replicate cars like the Ferrari /Lancia D50 or the Alfa Romeo 159. Or the Mercedes 154. Find it is almost impossible to find help, With Cyclekart style/design or construction, of any kind. A few companies have started to reproduce the mechanicals of cyclekarts, but no one has offered. Body design/construction in any way shape or form. Thank You Renegade Machine LLC/ Oklahoma Cyclekart, & Aurora Cyclekart of Colorado. Again we thank you
I love using wire bucks to make stuff. I'm very impatient or short on billable time when it comes to figuring a project out so a wooden buck is just so time consuming I love whipping up a quick game plan in tig filler rods. Even if I end up going a different route its great to quickly see what the final shape/profile will be. Even more so if I cover the buck in masking tape to see the fullness. Its saved me a few times to overcome an unforeseen obstruction or fitment with another component I might not have caught before hand. All of these great videos have been extrememly helpful in my career since I began watching. Thanks for sharing so much great information!
I have designed my own Trans-Am concept and I have a custom metal fabrication background, I imagined starting at the wheel arches at the desired width and wheelbase and then adding the door sills and skirting and working out to the rear bumper and boot lines etc. I am certainly glad I watched your video and agree that metal is more adaptable for fine tuning. I guess time will tell if my thought process will achieve the desired result
excellent video. i have seen wire bucks before, but your explanation of your thought process and how you have arrived at where you are is extremely informative. when i did my training they said to me 'we are not going to teach you how to do everything, we are going to teach you the basic principals so you can do anything'. they were right. if you understand the basic principals you can apply them anywhere, and you have just done a great job of explaining a series of basic principals. Greg
Lazze, Thank you very much for sharing this buck! I am at the stage where I was deciding how to approach making a body form and you helped guide me to the answer!
Lazze, we made a full size wooden buck which was very expensive in time and materials for the Chrysler Atlantic. We then decided to make several changes to the shape. It was a horrendous job to reshape the wooden buck so much so, that we gave up and constructed a metal buck from the rear window to the rear bumper and attached it to the wooden buck. Never again will we use a wooden buck. Your input will be valuable in the future construction of metal bucks. Thank You, Garry Smith P.S. Attending two of your classes has given us the confidence to move ahaed on this project.
Great video and idea using metal to make your patterns. I work in metal and wood both, but as you say, I can see the advantage of the adjustability using wire or small soft rod to get the contour wanted. I would love to see a series of you building this art from start to finish. My appreciation for all the knowledge you put out for us. Jerry
I used wood for my head fairing buck for my velomobile and have been trying to decide how to go about making the buck for the cockpit cover. watching this video has convinced me of using wire. One nice feature will be to hang it up until I get back to it. Thank you.
Great for working abstract sculpture as well, it lets the artist create as he goes getting the correct form before committing, very hands-on and refreshing in this age of CAD & CNC
This is really helpful. I was trying to decide between the two - wood vs. metal buck. I like the adjustability of metal, especially when you're sortve making the design as you go.
Excellent explanation . You just solved my dilemma on how I could make a buck for my 1951 Ford custom wide body wheel flairs . I can simply make an inner form that will lie against the quarter panel and an outer form that will determine my wheel opening. Than with your wire system, I can visualy see what it will look like as I play with the design until I am happy. Thank you very much. Doug
There’s a magnificent tin bender that produces wooden Bucks and uses them to form the part. I’m a master carpenter and I can say he is the of the finest caliber I’ve seen from a Metal Fabricator. His name is Ron Covell, he is here on TH-cam. He explains process of construction of the Wooden Pattern.
Lazze You should look at a router table that’s cnc There are some very easy technologies you could learn very quickly there is very little dust because of shop vac Using mdf you can cut out a wood buck that slides together like a box for packing glasses the shapes are perfect And easy to do and instead of weeks it’s a few days to build a full size buck putting it on a dolly to roll around When done it comes apart and stores flat Using this method you’ll get symmetrical shapes You would not believe how inexpensive it is to do what I’m saying
It would be so amazing to hybridize this with 3D CAD and computer meshmodeler like Blender 3D. If you had that and a large format printer, You could print section outlines, and use those to shape profiles. This would be SO FUN to PRESERVE coachbuilding and at the same time make the transition between design and buck much more flexible and creative.
Hi Lazze. Outstanding video explaining your thought process and plan of attack. I laughed a bit when you said, "me and wood don't get along".😂 I've always been intrigued by wireframe projects and I love cars. This is a fascinating combination of both, so for me, it's a win win. Very interested in watching this piece of artwork being created.👍 Have a great weekend, sir.
I would love to see you try making the side's in one piece. I'm learning a lot from watching you. Getting geared up to start on my 39 Ford Standard Coupe. Going to need a lot of metal fab. Keep Rocking!!!
Great stuff ! It would be nice to move the camera around the buck so we could get a 3D view of it. The stationary camera view sort of looks, on my monitor, like a still photograph of the buck. You've done it again Lazze, Really great idea. I hate the foam and saw dust in my shop.
I really like the buck. I would like to see you work on the front of an International Harvestor Metro van. They are super cool and have no patch panels available. They are a hot deal in the car / truck world right now. Thanks and awesome vids.
This was an incredibly helpfull video. It is so wonderful that you can share your talents with us this way. I am saving my money to attened one of your classes very soon I hope. Thank you so much. Sincerely, Leo
I appreciate your time explaining, however when you came to the part (11:40) about 3/4-inch strips on the outside of the ally panels it was unclear to me what your plan was for those. it sounds like they'll be templates for the outside shape of the body, since they'll be marginally larger than the wire buck sections?
I love your videos Very informative ....I’m planing on getting a English wheel and reciprocating hammer with shrinking stretching dies I’m 57 ive been building cars all my life I’ve never used a wheel before but I’ve become so interested I’ve actually built a Cnc plasma table from scratch I’m thinking about using a router plasma table to cut 3/4 ply Cnc For my bucks with fusion 360 It will speed up the buck process And be very Precise from side to side and allow me to spend more time learning to form sheet metal
Great video Mr. Lazze! What are you using to bend the wire? Are you using many different diameter pipes ect. to make them curve at different radius. Keep up the great work, thanks, Doug
Hi Lazze, fantastic way to visualise a concept, how would you make a buck for a 34 Ford grille shell? My thought was to use a fibreglass repo as a buck but don’t know if that would work, any ideas would be of great help. Cheers Raymond
Hi Lazze another great Video thanksI have a Question ? I have watch a lot of your videos and never seen you use a plenishing hammer. Do you use them, if not is there a reason why you shouldn't. Thanks Ray
Excellent, I could do it out of wood, but I can't find a wood stretcher or wood welder anywhere. All jokes aside, very nice and a great way of making dreams come true.
Lazze - what a great way to make a buck!
Ron Covell great, from one master to another!👍😀
This is great! I have never understood how they make ply wood bucks.

Did you ever start this project?
@@onazram1 I did start certain aspects but not the buck as yet.

The Shed a good teacher still continues to be a good teacher. Lazze is also a passionate.
Lazze, Thank you very much for sharing this buck! I am at the stage where I was deciding how to approach making a body form and you helped guide me to the answer!
I hope you don't get tired of hearing thank you, you video's are awesome
Fantastic, been waiting for you to resurrect this project Lazze, Please continue to document this build. Thanks for all your vids.
Lazze your idea's are inspiring. Thank you.

Such a great idea to transfer an idea into reality in that simple way.
Thank you for sharing!
I love that your so honest about the creative process.... gives us that are learning a lot of hope... thank you

I can’t wait to see you make the panels for that car
This is really helpful. I was trying to decide between the two - wood vs. metal buck. I like the adjustability of metal, especially when you're sortve making the design as you go.
Very nice Lazze, ever since I built a wooden buck and got two hands full of plywood splinters I’ve been making them this way too!
Så enkelt, så fantastiskt! Men jag hade aldrig klarat tänka ut det själv. Mycket imponerad av dig och ditt arbete!
Very good video !
Thanks Lazze! Another great video. Looking forward to more like this and would love to see your model when you have the body completed.
I think it would be a great project to see from start to finish....please continue with this project.
Detta var exakt den videon jag har letat efter. Tackar!
Fantastic Video! I would love to see a time lapse of you making this.
Lazze this is amazing, wire frame looks great!!
Excellent explanation . You just solved my dilemma on how I could make a buck for my 1951 Ford custom wide body wheel flairs .

Your wire framing parts modeling process is excellent! Thanks
Lazze vc é um profissional de mão cheia, parabéns sucesso pra vc!
Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge of this artform.Excellent concept .
.
Absolutely a gem of information. Thank you so much. I am planning to start a project with the information you have provide.
Very Good! I will put that in my memory bank.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I would like to learn English just to listen to your wisdom .. greetings from Argentina
outstanding approach!

Good video, lots of good ideas! Looks like a great project, oh those compound bends!!
Lazze, Great video! Very informative. I can't wait to try it out myself.
Another great video love the idea of making a metal buck instead of wood looks like another project for me! Cheers Dave.
I love it... makes more sense to me
Exactly the start I was looking for!
Right? Me as well.
A really interesting video, thank you. One question, would it be possible to show how you created the front view please?
Great video!
I am looking forward to the follow up.
Well done as always, thanks Lazze. Joe D.
Excellent video. Very inspiring.
Nice idea. One thought that comes to mind for doing a quick prototype might be to use plywood and hot melt glue to attach the wires.
Great idea that can be used for other art projects!!
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing your technique!
Awesome Idea, Awesome Video.
Thumbs up.
Greeting from Germany
just what I was looking for.......... I want to make small cars just like you did on this one and the 32 ford....thanks so much
The video was very helpful and inspiring.
I appreciate your time explaining, however when you came to the part (11:40) about 3/4-inch strips on the outside of the ally panels it was unclear to me what your plan was for those. it sounds like they'll be templates for the outside shape of the body, since they'll be marginally larger than the wire buck sections?
thats really cool. many advantages to this approach thanks much
Awesome job. Next buck make one full size but again great information as usual
As Always very very informative. I totally agree with making a buck that way....!!
Great idea, I hate woodworking too, keep the videos coming mate, cheers!
Helpful to start a car, motorcycle fairing, or even an airplane cowl or wing fairings. Thank you!
I love your videos
Very informative ....I’m planing on getting a English wheel and reciprocating hammer with shrinking stretching dies
I’m 57 ive been building cars all my life I’ve never used a wheel before but I’ve become so interested
I’ve actually built a Cnc plasma table from scratch
I’m thinking about using a router plasma table to cut 3/4 ply Cnc
For my bucks with fusion 360
It will speed up the buck process
And be very Precise from side to side and allow me to spend more time learning to form sheet metal
great vid......... i thought about doing the same thing..........but didn't know where to start
Lazze , Great video, I do like the wire method better.
Great video, and very helpful!
very helpful, great work! thanks.
Very informative tutorial. Thank you so much. If it is possible, please make a video on making of car frames.
Love from India
Please post a detailed video making the rubber band for the English wheel
Nice one Lazze. Tak.
Great video Mr. Lazze! What are you using to bend the wire? Are you using many different diameter pipes ect. to make them curve at different radius. Keep up the great work, thanks, Doug
Hi Lazze, fantastic way to visualise a concept, how would you make a buck for a 34 Ford grille shell? My thought was to use a fibreglass repo as a buck but don’t know if that would work, any ideas would be of great help.
Cheers
Raymond
Hi Lazze another great Video thanksI have a Question ? I have watch a lot of your videos and never seen you use a plenishing hammer. Do you use them, if not is there a reason why you shouldn't. Thanks Ray
Great video, I buy a. 1/18 model if available and scale it up.
great idea fast way to get alook at what yor mind is seeing thanks again for all that you do would love to watch it come to gether
Great idea sir! Thank you for sharing!
Simple question maybe. How do you bend thé wires?
Excellent, I could do it out of wood, but I can't find a wood stretcher or wood welder anywhere. All jokes aside, very nice and a great way of making dreams come true.
WC4DOOR have you tried using dowels as filler rod? :D
Great video
Brilliant.
Hej Lazze, Bra video. Kari från Borlänge
did you complete metal buck ?
thank you
Awesome sir..
would like to see a 1932 ford 3 window body built from scratch
awsome great info
Congratulations....Facebook ( Restauraciones finas) México...
Underbart tack så mycket
Great
Please show us the cars in your shop.
Hello Mr. Lazze can you write subtitle in sanish for all the people in latinamerica. Greetings from Ecuador
wow
👍
