    A tip for Lizzy. Your welds are looking very sound and uniform. The settings are perfect by the sound. One thing I would suggest is to speed up your travel and put a quick whip or back puddle (1/8"-3/16") to it. This will downsize your fillet to bring them closer to spec (1/2 the thickness of the smallest thickness material you're welding) The increase in speed will make your welds arrow straight and give them that machined look. This isn't intended to be negative at all because I think you have natural skills in your application.

    • @jeremyspecce
      @jeremyspecce ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Can you explain that “1/2 the thickness of your thinnest material” thing a little? I assume maybe this is only for structural welding? Any kind of sheet metal you tend to be thicker than the base material from maybe 10 gauge and thinner I imagine.

    • @russeli1941
      @russeli1941 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@jeremyspecce You are absolutely right about that, Jeremy. Most of what I ever welded was heavy structural fabrications so that's one of those rules of thumb that stuck with me. Nonetheless, it is beneficial to at least have that in mind with whatever you're welding. The travel speed on this application should be increased. 1/8" plate doesn't require a 1/4 - 3/8 fillet weld.

    Get a good air dryer for the plasma, that will fix that issue. Don't care how dry the outside air is, it's wet once compressed and cooled. Water causes the air to be more conductive, and eats the tips out. If you are close to the power limit of the tip, it will blow them out instantly. You can tell when the air dryer needs to be replaced on a cnc by how long the tip lasts!
    I recommend a good desiccant dryer dedicated for the plasma, just make sure to install a valve on the inlet. Otherwise when you disconnect it the desiccant will be exposed to room air. Get silica gel based one, and you can buy the silica beads in bulk and reuse them. You just bake them at 250F for 30 min, and they are as good as new!

    I have never been disappointed with the pace of the wrecker, it’s just one of those things in your line of work. I enjoy watching everything you get involved with. Its at about the same speed as Paul and Bens wrecker. You have so much to do along with running a business that there is always more work than time in a day to do it. You keep it all going Matt by prioritizing the jobs that need doing in order of importance and end up with a mad dash rush at the end to get ready for whatever it is comes your way. It’s the same with Fab Rats, Rory and crew, Chad and I am sure many others. The thing I like is that you never seem to let these things faze you. You just take it all in your stride and keep going. Your suck it and see style of fabrication might give some people cause for concern but for me, I just think of all the amazing things you have done, your vehicles are outstanding and that’s all down to having a blue print (ish) inside your head and a card cad program in your shop, if it works, why try and fix it? Kudos to you all, I do miss Rudy not being around and will miss Trevor and Skeeter, Trevor was always blamed for everything by shouting Treeeeeevor, I will miss those guys and wish them all the very best in what they are doing. I have always liked Tom; he is a good addition to your team and somehow you always manage to have a friendly capable team around you Matt that the show will go on. Stay safe all of you and I look forward to the next one.

    I love that Matt emphasizes that you shouldn’t remove safety features from gear, by pointing at us with his finger that he burnt earlier, which, rather than being covered in a bandage, has a piece of electrical tape around it.

And .. it's all a setup to the first time that the Big Wrecker's actually used on it's first job. PS Love the old door to the Golden Nugget mounted on the wall.

    A quick question. Have you considered using Dynomat on some internal surfaces (possibly even on the fire wall itself) to limit the transmission of engine noise into the cab? Keping the heat in and the engine noise out. Seems important now.

    • @ADBBuild
      @ADBBuild ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dynomat doesn't insulate against sound, it is a dampener, it keeps things from vibrating/rattling. You need something like carpet padding to insulate against sound.

    • @matthewtaylor3308

      ​@@ADBBuild dynomat is used to insulate and for sound resignation(vibration/rattling) bquiet and killmat are both quiet the sound (used to stop engine noise from coming in)but also reflect heat so it kepps inside the cab warm in winter and cool in the summer

    • @alandunscombe891
      @alandunscombe891 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, have recently used Dynamat on my 1954 TR2 British sportscar after the panel shop cut out all the rust. I used it on ALL the firewall and inside the cockpit sides (where the guards/fenders bolt on the outside, plus all the gearbox cover. I am most impressed with the result, no more rattles & squeaks and significantly less engine & transmission noise. I would suggest using it on the firewall and under the dash in the Heavy Wrecker.

I am confident by the time Matt gets done with this project that it will be an awesome looking wrecker, not just a bunch of parts thrown together to be functional like some wreckers are, but something that is appealing to the eyes. That new bumper on Blue Steel looks beefy. Looking forward to getting the transmission in so the rest of the wreck can take place. Great footage of the work being done.

    well I agree you don't necessarily have to be the safest person in the shop the one thing I will say is always wear safety glasses. you can cut yourself or even lose a finger and Carry On Through Life perfectly fine but if you lose an eye it's devastating. my mom lost her eye in a freak accident when she was young and I almost lost my eye few years ago working in the shop. it can happen to anybody. now that you have air conditioning being installed you should really consider wearing safety glasses more often.

    Honestly, you had to get used to the fact that Rudi is no longer there, but the fact that Skeeter and especially Trevor are no longer there either, that's tough. Don't get me wrong, I like all the others too, but it's the mixture of the different characters that makes this show for me, who otherwise has nothing to do with off-roading, jeeps, Utah, the United States, etc., something I happen to like. I discovered it by chance and subscribed directly after two episodes. I wish Skeeter and Trevor all the best! And I hope Trevor does something of his own on TH-cam, I'd be there as a viewer in a heartbeat! Despite everything, this channel is still one of the most entertaining TH-cam channels for me and I look forward to every new episode. Above all, this channel has also brought me to Robby Layton, Fab Rats and Holly. I look forward to new episodes and wait for guest appearances by Trevor, Rudi and Skeeter.
