Super Cool 👍😎👍and Incredibly Challenging project👍👀👍 You are the Man 👍😎👍
It’s not easy but hopefully saving 1,000,00’s
I'm building also a 33 roadster, after watching your channel, I'm probably gonna do the same thing to my roadster. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you for your support and for commenting. Yes do it yourself and enjoy.

Very cool, I had never even considered attempting to fab my own top for a project. But not In the future I just might. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Jimmy, man I’m sure you can pull anything off.
Pretty awesome building u r kustom top. 👍
I’m not a top using guy but after 7 years of not having one my luck is running out ⛈️

What a Great idea. Using your old top for your jig ! I can’t wait for the next video. Mike my top has the snaps on the inside & your always wrestling with them to put it together ( of course I the rain😅) very good as always Build Thanks Mike

How much do you want for the windshield top package on the roadster pickup ? Thanks@@SpankysHotRodsandCustoms
@camcutcnc not sure yet. I’ll need a replacement first but would make you a good deal. Stay in touch
Will do@@SpankysHotRodsandCustoms
I thought I would mention that I am not a tire kicker. I realize that the top won't fit every body out there. I like the top and plan to make my body fit the top. I am not in love with the back of my cab but i really like your top and I have the ability to make the body fit the top and look right. The look right part is what I am after. I had seen your video on making a top and am anxiously awaiting further installments. I have a heavy duty sewing machine but it isn't a walking foot model. I would still like to purchase your top even though you are showing us how to build one. I am currently building a 32 roadster pickup, a 32 roadster, a 32 5 window, and a 34 3 window coupe. I am considering building a 34 pickup as it should have been done by Henry. I will modify a 34 3 window coupe body and build a smooth side bed. If it looks cool, and why wouldn't it ? I will then make a mold.
Got lost in the internet. Merry Christmas from southern Mississippi. And may God bless you and family
Merry Christmas Bobby to you and your family.

Glad you liked it! Merry Christmas to you and your family

Have I missed the next video or is still in the works. I’m building a 32 roadster so this right up my alley for information
Actually working on it today. I’ve come up with a new and hopefully better solution to bending the tubing so it comes out the same on every top. Please stay tuned, coming very soon
Thanks for your reply greatly appreciated as are your videos
Have I missed part two of this video. I gathered a great deal of information from this video and purchased material and tools. But before I start on my 32 roadster I would ask if there is more that may help me. Thanks for all the other content on your channel.
I have made another video but not finished yet. Maybe I can help you before I post it. Let me know spankytire@yahoo.com
@@SpankysHotRodsandCustoms thanks for the response . I will start with the info I have and if I have a question I’ll reach out to you. Thanks again
Can’t wait to see the next video. I have a bop top on my 32 now curious to see how your top looks.
Thanks for watching, I can’t wait to get it done. Hope it turns out nice. Please keep following

It looks like u tube dropped another message. I will be glad to help you with CAD drawing we would need to ph one to make it happen successfully.
Cool, what’s is the easiest software to use for the Langmuir cnc. Is there a free version ? Thanks
I was the second guy in this country to manufacture and sell low cost CNC plasma systems. That was roughly 30 years ago I have taught hundreds of people how to draw and make code. If you are having a problem you need to be able to send me a CAD file so I can see where your mistake is. Today most companies have you login to their server so they can manipulate your file. I don't do enough tech support to warrant that.
@camcutcnc my first problem is no software. I’ve had the table for 3 years and the software went out before I could learn it. I need to find new software with a easy learning curve for a beginner
In my experience of teaching thousands of people to do this, if you practice drawing like I say, you will remember it. I have a friend here in Ocala who has been doing metal art for about 6 years, he still calls every few months when the machine frustrates him. It is a lot easier to be successful if you have tech support rather than being frustrated.@@SpankysHotRodsandCustoms
The first project that I would have you do is those brackets for the top. A really simple project. Useful and skill building.
Hi what type of fabric do you use for the top ? Where do you get it ? Thanks
