Brilliant content once again Matt, I like the “talk over style” it’s very good indeed. Nice job on the door!
I see two big problem with your repair. First, control the washout on thé car before welding the panel and use a flat jammer tot tap on the Edge Stapling
Nice instructional Matt. Also good you pointed out to be careful not to damage the new surface with the grips.
Nice job Matt, I've got some old race doors that need re skinning so thanks for the tips. Hole cutter next on those door frames 😉
You make it look easy. Well done.
Smashed the 100k subs, now on to 250k- 500k then 1 million!! 😁👍
One of your OG subs here, Matt, start of the transit recovery build, I haven't been around for a while. nice to see your channel gaining some traction and views, mini project looks a good one, everyone love a mini. Congrats and good luck.
Beautiful work on the door
You have to weld also the corners on the upper part panel, around the windows frame( they tend to always crack in the time) and also make one spot weld the lower section near the two lower corners of the door. The panels tend to move lightly if you twist the window frame. Love your roll cage. Really nicely done!
You're right in my expereince.
That Mini is gonna be superlight, nimble around corners.
Looking forward to see it race on the circuit
Yet again Matt another job and you make it look so easy 👌
Like the how to's, i just need to get the hang of wheel arch repair panels using the shrinker/stretcher.
Another awesome video from you, thanks and keep them coming.
I've watched a few door skins being done before & I've enjoyed watching this video. I've door skins to do on mine & you've made it look really easy. Hopefully I'll be able to copy your easy to follow guides. I'm going back to watch this build as I've just found your channel 👍.
Its so funny now that whenever I start watching your videos and the music plays my partner shouts "its matt from urchfab"
Same
Mega little video. Always summin’ new to learn many thanks
I’d love to hear urchfab Jr doing some of the voice over!
Just found this channel and working my way back through the videos, so good so far, loving the fab work.👍
He's brilliant and his welding is just on another level 👍🇬🇧
Great Job Brother !!!!
Hi Matt, seems you actually forgot to drill the drain holes in your repair patch. Cheers from Germany
Brought back some good memories, doing my skills tests at London Tec all those years ago, for my city and guilds, ta matt
A great clear video good work.
It looks so easy when you do it, but practice is definitely needed for other people.
This is a really valuable video, Matt! Thank you for all you do to teach all of us!!!
Awesome video once again mate. Love watching you create. A master at his craft.
Thanks Matt great vid nice neat job 👍👨🏻🏭
Nice one Matt, i am busy rust repairing a Mini as well. We unfortunately do not have any replacement panels whatsoever, so it is nice to see how it is done when having new panels. Cannot wait o see the end result. Great videos pal. 👍 from S.A
I like this voiceover style. Very informative and interesting
Very good way of working. ANd good. straigtforward no nonsense way pf presenting it.
Nice job on the Mini door Matt, came out nice.
Im hoping to do this exact job this weekend :D Great work, love the editing style. Works so well, whats next?
my dad always drilled a hole or two in the doors on his mini's.
Made that look so easy… top work mate!!!
Great job, take care stay well
Thanks 👍
very informative!
Great information on re skining a door loved it .
reminds me of building minis a long time back i got the urge for a new one now lol
Great work!
Thanks
Great work as always matt and great content to help others that are not so confident when are you aiming to get the mini on the track this summer or next ?
HELLO from California ,I'm New to your channel.
you have some great skill making them cars come to life , wish I could do that with my project car.
keep up the great work Urchfab.
Doing rust repairs - The job you hate the most😉
We shall call you.......The Skinner!!!
Восхищаюсь твоими навыками и работой!
Nicely done.
Brilliant video, what was the orange paint for?
Great video! ,thx!! , Tomek from Poland :)
Deseando ver terminado el mini, sé que quedará muy bien, saludos desde las islas canarias
Y saludos desde Escocia
Saludos Malcolm
Very neat job, only thing forgotten was trial fitting on car to remove any twist from door then put a few spot welds around outer edge to stop flexing - but he probably did that off camera 👍
Yep totally agree.
If i remember i used to put a couple of spot welds first then trial fit the door to check the correct alignment and gaps. There's quite a bit of adjustment in the fitting of those door skins. Takes me back to the good old days of working on Minis.
Excellent work! Next job, put it in the door aperture and see how badly it fits then have to build up the edges with weld to get good door gaps! 🤣 nothing on a mini was ever perfect
Good work
Nice informative video. Would it be worth sealing the edge you’ve folded over?
Matt has already said that he would seam seal this door.
@@100Jeanluc ah, must of missed it. Thanks.
@@woznaldo no problem.
skill is the best
Nice work, but now over 2 million people think it takes 30 mins to build a car. That's got to give you a bit of a moral boost.
How is the parweld holding up ??
Why haven't you put sealer between the door and the new door skin when folding the edge?
Painted both the panels with some kind of coating.. seam sealer can go over the seam where both panels meets . As mentioned he also put sealer around the bottom section where water would accumulate.
@@malcolmyoung7866 Moisture can not only get in the gab from outside but also from the inside of the door. When there is sealer/glue between the gaps there can't be moisture.
In automotive engineering today is e.g. common practice to glue the wheel arch sections instead of welding for rust prevention
Question: could you have salvaged the old skin and replaced the bottom of the old door skin?
Hi matt how much do you charge to change a door skin ?
Skint!
never done a door skin, does the tools you can buy to fold the lip make it any easier ?
Quite amazed door had rot considering how super good all the shell is .
Got to up my chances on the MIG and buy another draw ticket lol . Way better odds than wasting money on lottery scratch cards and it a better cause :-)
B204 DIC on the cable drum… obviously a dead one with a crack in it 🥴🙈😂😂
super power bro
Bad lad welding with no shield
You make that look a doddle 😀
No initial clap. Can't understand how the sound is in synch. Just lucky I guess.
Sell prices if the door, make key chains from it

Nice job buddy..... LAG
Piece of cake.
Good job, but why didn't you replace those skins with aluminum?
Whats the point, aluminium and steel corrode like hell when in contact so better off to use the steel skin and make sure it's properly seam sealed and Waxoyled inside once car is painted 👍
Think Matt got the skins with the car….
