Can we just take a minute to appreciate just how gorgeous Kev’s welds are?!
thanks dude
It is amazing I’ve tried welding but I am not too good, needless to say my dad isn’t letting me work at the boat shop in a while…
i was very surprised when i saw them, kev is seriously skilled
@@KevinTalbotTV I’m not a pro. But I’ve heard reverse polarity for aluminum welding is the trick to cleaner welds???
@@KevinTalbotTV
I have been welding for years very nice welds sir.
ps forklift make for easy oil changes lol
The forklift will be the "Footage" in case the Monster Truck made a "tumble wumble"🤣
What about "hand of god"?
🤣
@@JaksterForSale that would be a big Crane or something
Footage the forklift
@@JaksterForSale Time for a crane! Uh oh, now I just gave Kev another idea...
Kev that’s such a smart and simple idea to do your small drilling and cutting in a plastic bin to keep the shavings and dust off the floor. I run the shop vac about 12 times a day in between cuts but this is way smarter
I agree
I thought that as well
Oh My Goodness! Yeah! Plastic Bin! Nice Idea!
@@eddyre1333 qri
I have wait so long for this video and how ever you do that it’s grateful
Everyone build a gokart home. Kevin: "hold my beer" i build a Monstertruck!!😅
More like hold my cup of tea
I think it's hold my rc remote
Let’s gooooo!! Best day when Kevin uploads
I agree. Your own truck IS the words best truck! Same with kids. Nobody's kid is cuter than your own and this is your baby so go on lad, enjoy THE bestest trucky wuck on the planet matey
Very well put! I wish more people could keep things like this in perspective and stay so literal, rigid, and quick to anger so the silly things
Agreed
i agree too
Worlds do you mean 😆
Bruh your last name is my first name 🤦🤦
I really hope whislindiesel gets insane amount of power on that thing once he hooks up the other engine. I'm excited for both builds 💪
They’re built for two different purposes so they’re both going to be super sick
I’d love to see a collab
I bet Kevin is going to be one of the best drivers out there! Can’t wait 😆
haha ill try!
@@KevinTalbotTV you always try as hard as you can to make you and your viewers happy 😊
True
Ye
@@KevinTalbotTV LET'S GO, KEVIN, LET'S GO! YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!
When welding aluminum, the pieces to be welded must be completely free of any and all surface contaminants. A clean stainless steel brush will do nicely. Either a toothbrush size and shape or a rotary Dremel brush. There are also various liquids (acid based) that do the trick. I prefer brushes as they are easier to use and much safer. You can get the SS brushes at most hardware stores. Finally, you must keep your tungsten electrode perfectly clean. One touch on your electrode, with your filler rod or the pieces you are welding, and you will need to regrind the tip of your electrode. Remember that a sharpened tip on your electrode is best for TIG welding nonferrous metals like carbon steel or stainless steel, but a ball tip is necessary for aluminum. Easiest way to create a ball tip on your tungsten electrode is to sharpen it as always, then switch your welding machine to reverse polarity and strike an arc for a second or two. This will melt your sharpened tip into a perfect ball tip. If you contaminate the electrode you will need to redo this whole process again. That's why I always create 4 or 5 ball tip electrodes at once. It will save you time when your right in the middle of your welding project and you contaminate your tip. HTH
Thanks for the tips bro. I cleaned it with sand paper, obviously was a bad idea! haha
@@KevinTalbotTV 😂
"When in doubt, grind it out."

Kevin now owns a forklift
Now he doesn’t need a jack to change his tyres on his Land Rover
Needs it for the Primal RC - Raminator 😂
And his Lamborghini
This build is awesome Kev. That hoop thing on your neck/shoulders and attached to your helmet is also to stop what I think is called a basal spinal fracture, which can kill you. It's a fracture where the neck meets the base of the skull, it happens under rapid deceleration. It's what took Dale Earhart out.
It's great that Tony from Swampthing is helping you out.
Hoop thing? Haans device. And yea your correct, Dale Earnhardt refused to wear the haans device because “it blocked too much of his vision” there for without the haans device the only thing he had for his head or neck was a normal head rest like you find in your car today and a thin light plastic bucket seat.
Those are some clean welds Kev,I'm happy to see your getting closer and closer to your dreams the best part is your building it nothing's gonna feel better when it's done and people ask whered this custom monsterous beauty come from you can say from these 2 hands! proud of you and your channel your a inspiration to people you started with some toy monsters now u have the demon eye hellcat of monster trucks one of a kind.
lol I was gonna say the same thing, did not expect that!
Damn, Tony for MVP. We all need a Tony.
All of the little brackets and tabs always take SO much time with very little visual progress. Well done!
I love nothing more than watching some one who takes pride in his work. Your welding/fabrication skills are second to none good job kev!
I can't wait to hear the engine turn over! This is a great build to watch.
I love watching this channel grow
Awesome. Something tells me the Lambo is going to need a new home soon, before there's an 'oopsie' in the workshop and it all ends in tears.....
I was thinking that exactly the same thing…”it’s not the best monster truck” but seriously, it’s yours and it were me, it would be the greatest in the world. I’m excited for you! 🇺🇸
Man your fabrication skills are insane. Amazing to watch you every time Kevin.
I appreciate that!
@@KevinTalbotTV me to
Beautiful. What an inspiration!! The best!!!
Your face when you're sitting in it for the first real drive. I fear that grin may stay permanent! amazing job Kev!~
Been waiting for this series for a while, I'm not disappointed!! 👍
Kev's theory for RCs: "..It's only a toy!"
Kev's theory for real MTs and cars: "We gotta do it right, because we're in it!" (5:19-5:23)
It's probably a good thing that Kev's reasoning for RCs and real vehicles is different...lol
there both still toys tho
Huge props to doing it yourself.
This is actually really smart way. To prove how safe your build is.
You’re a talented fabricator Kev. Aluminum welding is not at all easy!
Nice job Kev! Learn as you go… that’s how I do it most of the time. Tig welds look nice 👍
Awesome work Kev
Great to see that you have Tony to get advice off etc.. Very smart move !!
Hey Kevin everything aluminum that I’ve ever welded I have had to clean off the surface that’s being welded with a clean wire brush either in a drill or hand held one. That dirty ness is just contaminants on the surface if you clean it that shouldn’t happen. Hope this helps
i used sandpaper, maybe that contaminated it!
Kevin Talbot Kev, see if you can get a hold of acetone..
Im a pipefitter and when we get the exotic metals ready for the welder we always clean it down with this to get rid of contaminants.
Also, DO NOT use sandpaper🤣
Get yourself a stainless steel wire brush, as a standard metal one will contaminate it.
Brush first, then wipe down with acetone👍🏻
@@KevinTalbotTV Ali oxidises quik so cleaning it with a wire brush is the way to go. an kev pad up those brackets bro you don't want to get hurt ..layers of foam and insulation tape on all the pointy bits. Have fun m8 luvin the journey.
@@kristofevo Agreed, I also wondered if he may have used the same sandpaper/brushes that he also used for the steel parts. Probably not, Kev has welding experience if I remember correctly.
Professional fabricator and welder. Clayton is right. Aluminum oxide melts at a far higher temp. Sandpaper isn't really the way to go. You can get the grit from the paper in the Aluminum. I use a scotch bright pad at work which still isn't ideal. The best thing is a stainless steel brush by hand.
Also the gas you're using matters too. We use straight argon at work. That works for pretty much everything. Not sure what you have but most people use a 75/25 mix of argon and co2. If that's the case you're well will come out dirty.
Hope this helps and your welds and fab skills are looking great. Might have to check out your ebay things. I need to make some money fast (gotta buy a suit of armour for jousting).
Never thought I would want to build my own monster truck, but this series is awe-inspiring!!! Can't wait to see it running. It's awesome to see all your fabrication skills too Kev!!
Thanks bro!! Do it build a monster!!
@@KevinTalbotTV Hah! I wish I had the sort of space and ££ for one!! Maybe one day! Until then, I’m going to thoroughly enjoy you building and driving your beast.
Gotta say... I got bit bored with rc things, but this monster build is just GREAT!!!! Keep up the god work!!!!
Having the money to buy a Monster truck is cool.
Having the balls to build one yourself is Badass!
you're just amazing at anything to do with mechanics!
Contamination is the issue, you need to keep separate aluminum grinding/wire wheels/sandpaper and separate tungsten. Different tig cups will also help reduce contamination and always clean the shipping oils off your metal stock. Regrind your tungsten if you dip the tip 😉🤣, good job still
"a hobby is a hobby whatever makes you happy" Same goes for monster trucks
Good luck with your monster truck
Lol imagine Kev bringing his forklift to the skatepark🤣😂
Footage? 😅
@@cossiedrifter Lol
Alcohol injecting? Why are you making your monster truck drunk?
Actually You know what This is Kevin talbot so this is expected
It's the World's Best Monster Truck because it's yours. Awesome!!
I'm learning more about monster trucks in this series than i have in my whole life! Can't wait for it to be finished!
Epic video as usual, never long enough for me personally, mainly love the building. Great editing. Looking forward to the next video 👍🏻
Normally the black stuff on your aluminum after welding is from a contaminated tungsten or the metal itself is just dirty or contaminated, brake cleaner normally does the trick and resharpening your tungsten
Isn't brake cleaner very dangerous to breathe if it's heated?
@@TrillMurray it evaporates to almost nothing pretty quick and welding aluminum itself releases toxic fumes id say far more dangerous, but a respirator should always be used
@@pavelack I would use the non chlorinated brake cleaner to be safe. If you heat the chlorinated stuff past like 300°, it creates a deadly gas. Good advice on the respirator. Always a good idea if in doubt
@@pavelack okay I looked it up. Phosgene is what is created if you accidentally heat chlorinated brake cleaner before it evaporates. It's not as deadly as I thought but it can still kill you
@@TrillMurray I use isopropyl whenever I lay a bead. Brake cleaner no good plus can leave residue I have found. Isopropyl is by far the best and evaporates very quickly. Also, very rare is the tungsten the issue when it comes to soot.usually it's the cleaner settings on the welder. With the tungsten, I sharpen it like a pencil and then a flatten the tip so it's not pointy. This conducts a far better arc and it more stable on high frequency. You have to wire brush the Alli before you weld and then run it over with the iso. Try it. Works for me and I weld everyday.
Awesome monster truck
The best monster truck is the one that brings the biggest smile on your face
