It is very much the same but does require a shrinker stretcher . Tip the edge 10° then shrinke/stretch it back to shape, then tip some more and repeat.
In New Zealand I have to use 5005 since we can't easily get 3003 here either. I'll have to try the tungsten burr to grind back the welds. I have been using 2 inch Roloc flap sanding discs which works pretty well. My welds are somewhat lumpy since I gas weld and weld on both sides so lots of grinding. I've just worked out how to improve my welding technique so I need less filler so less grinding.
I need you guys here in Australia. I could not get a company to shorten and weld the BMW propshaft which is aluminium by the way to weld it for me.🇿🇦🇦🇺🇬🇪🇷🇺🇷🇺
Precision work. So amazing Matthew and Danie!!! Proud of you guys.
And also clear there is just no short cuts. This is hard work.
I am fascinated
You're a great teacher! Thank you!
Excellent lessons, thank you guys. Really great.
Thanks
Really enjoy watching all that you guys do. So skilled! 👌
Thank you very much 👍
Great channel! And great information.
If you aren't wearing a respirator when sanding grinding, you probably should. I like your work.
Could you please show your method for tipping an edge on a curved panel like the cobra boot lid surround you pointed to in the vid. Great work thanks.

We also unfortunately only get 5005. I've not done gas welding yet, but the tungsten burr works well.
Excellent
Thanks

What kind of aluminum material do you use? Which sheet thickness? semi-hard or soft?
It's 5356 in a 1.5mm sheet and quarter hard
Thank you
Why don't you gas weld the Aluminum?
It is quite a struggle to get quality flux for aluminium here in South African.
Do you always use 5000 series aluminum? And why? Ever use 3003?
We prefer 3003 as it is easier to work with, but it is difficult to obtain.
Can you make me aluminum airbox cover for v-rod lol
Easy 😜
@@BroughBuilt Do I make a scan and pass the 3D model or the airbox lol
This series is turning out to be less than I had hoped. No criticism of the skill level , just presentation.
