My dad taught me everything I know about sheet metal, bodywork, welding, etc. unfortunately he passed away about 10 years ago and now questions are hard to get answered. Your video reminded me of watching my dad work the “Magic” hammer and dolly and making patches out of nothing. This video also answered a few questions I wish I could have talked to my dad about. Thanks so much and I am sure glad I found your videos…
You are a store house of metalwork wisdom. You have no idea how much you are helping folks deciding to finally take on a project they’ve been wary of attempting
You know what I love about these videos? If he doesn’t get it quite right the first time, we get to see the corrections. That’s gold! What good is it if all we see is pefection on each process? When mortals do it, it will be far from perfect, and now I know how to fix it up.
I'm doing some of this stuff for the first time. I'm seeing a lot of things I could do better and I see things I did right. That's how I've had to learn my whole life. I can't just watch and do it right the first time, I have to jump in and make my mistakes.
I am a house painter by trade I’ll never have a reason to do what you’re doing, but I’m amazed with your skill and knowledge I just spent the whole day watching 10 hours worth of your videos my wife thinks I’m losing my mind ha ha ha ha
your cut n but is famous across the world and now many diy restorers qoute your name when performing it,im pleased your revealing the actual time in completing each task that is worth loads to the diyers and i believe stops them throwing in the towel,i myself never tire of watching you bud and your the first ebayer i go to if i want to know about metalwork.
It’s always fun to dig through TH-cam videos looking for repair answers. There is something about finally finding the actual professional way of doing something… ya kinda just know when you found the guy… This is the guy.
The day I turned 16 I was hired as a Finnish Grinder. I quickly found out that it was an actual art. We’d grind tolerances within the thousandths by hand. Getting Mirror smooth finishes all with those 36 grit and 50 grit Norton disks. If you grind correctly with tight enough lines you won’t even need the DA before paint. A few mil’s of paint will look like glass. Everyone focus on even grinds, high low, and cutting in on the start and stop but they always run the grinder improperly for a smooth finish grind. They always grind all sporadic winging the grinder back and forth leaving the lines looking like a cat scratching post or an off balance hone. The trick and proper way is to use equal pressure and speed. A slow and level pass with finesse. You never whip the grinder back and forth on a finish path. The cut lines should follow one single direction and meet at a 45 on corners. The cut lines should be tight together but not deep. You should see your reflection in your finish grind. Then through a scotch bright disk on and it will be smooth as a baby’s bum. Looking like chrome. Flap disks are primarily for those that struggle to grind unless your fitting tubing / trimming concave surfaces!
I can not even begin to tell you how much your tutorials have meant to me. I have never welded before not to mention the outrageous idea of fabrication. As I have mentioned in past comments you are truly an artist. It was because of your videos I purchased a welder and some basic tools and had this incredibly arrogant idea to attempt rust repair on my 1976 Eldorado convertible. I have made some mistakes and yes had to redo some of my work. However, the vast amount of repairs has been almost perfect. I am going back to TH-cam college and attempting to learn the Art of leading to finish my project to perfection. I can not say enough about your magical art of fabrication. I would love it if you offered a number sticker "Fitzee helped with restoring me"
With every episode a bit more of your experience and insight that you share with us all. A journeyman fabricator inspiring the next generation. Grateful for all the people who make your videos so interesting.
I never advanced it a single click! It flew by and i wasn't gonna miss a single second! That is art when i see you fab! Thanks Fitzee, i cant get enough!👍🏼
Just a hobbyist, but I can see a positive difference in my shop work and can only attribute that to your videos. Thanks for passing on your knowledge and experience.
Thank you! I have my 1949 Ford F2 truck completely disassembled, and started body welding this week. Your channel has blessed me greatly! C. Dwayne Shafer, Stephenville, Texas
Uncle fitz is a magician!! A true craftsman and a real gentleman!! He explains everything and walks everyone through the process!! Anyone else probably would have given up, or blasted themselves in the head with a hammer!! Thanks for the great video sir!!!
Incredible workmanship and attention to details. Your channel should replace all the text books in autobody and restoration repair classes. Hats off to you, Sir!
Well it's official....I'm a Fitzee addict. I used to sit and watch an airbrush artist for hours back in the day, learning and admiring. Now I just sit here watching these vids, taking it all in and just itching for my next welding project. Maybe an old 'stang, or camaro, or who knows what. Very inspiring to me and a complete joy to watch. Thank You!!
Just started restoring a 70's Porsche 914 that I found in a field. The Rear deck lid was time consuming to get off because I had to back the bolts out a bit , then WD40 it then turn them in and back them out until they backed out. The last one I snapped the bolt off trying to force it. It was my stupidity to force the darn thing. That was yesterday. Today I am starting the actual lid and it really is not as bad as I thought however there is a spot right in the middle that is just like what you are repairing. I must have watched this several times now. I hope they used better metal than Datsun did. Fantastic wealth of information my dear friend.
please Fitzee , don't make us suffer your awaiting ... you made up for it nicely with this long run .thank you for sharing Tony , we appreciate, as we know it puts you back in your work. and hope your water flood mess is resolved, try to keep it ventilated ...
Great tips. For the longest time I thought you needed every tool under the sun to get a project started. Your ability to improvise has changed that mindset for me. 👍🏼
tony next you have a hole try this use a steel roofing nails they work great for holes and easy to use too and save you time and been doing this for years.thanks - nick
I am probably a tad older than you so I have not done this for a few years, so I like watching. Cars are like women, it is the curvy areas we focus on. Luckily we seldom have to weld in the flat areas. When I was young it was all Ox/Ac and we found it easier to fabricat parts with heat, but later with MIG we did closer to what you do. In the latter years I preferred TIG, because of the less heat input. Today in the shops it is all about swapping parts and the welding is all done in a hobbyist garage. We have become to expensive to spend time on a job.
Thanks Fitzee, the tips have been very good in the restoration of my very rusty 66 Corvair Monza. A body man friend of mine said it was too rusty for a body shop to make money on. Nobody is going to pay for the time it takes. The car done just doesn't have that kind of value. He is absolutely right. Following your methods and using my basic tools and a good Miller 135 mig welder its coming along just fine. Happy to have found your channel.
Dont forget to throw a sandbag in the front end when you get her done. Lost a friend the day after she bought it, slid off the road and into a power pole.
I'm sure you've heard this a million times , but you do amazing work with what seems to be very few tools and nothing fancy , but it always works out .
motivation is key when it comes to putting together a mess of rot and twisted metal, watching fritzee, gets my ass off the couch and back into my garage beating the living shit out my 57 dodge truck which i dragged from the brink of being turned to dust , thanks fritzee
If I watched your video 100 times, I could still not duplicate this quality of workmanship. Even so, I really get a kick out of watching this kind of skill level, performed with ease by a craftsman of the trade. What I learn from your instructionals, is that "Anything" is possible when it comes to body work. Thanks for taking the extra time to share sir.
Tony, we both know its a feel and guess but when you've done it awhile you make it look easy when in reality its not, you have good skills my friend and the patience to make it work!
This video takes me back to my early childhood when my father and grandfather were in the coal to gas furnace conversion business and made their own sheet metal duct work and copper gutters. I remember the huge breaks (at least they seemed huge to a small child) and other sheet metal equipment and hand tools. I enjoy your videos very mush Fitzee. Thanks
Your amazing,Boy if I couuld do that Id be tickled,But surgery left me paralyzed, But I can apreate your talent,Keep up the repairs and I’ll keep watching,Thanks.
I bet those down voters can't weld.I am in my late 50s and have welded cast iron stainless steel aluminum and mild steel ( All thick stuff ) mostly on off shore oil rigs, but I could never weld car door panels without warping them until I watched a few of your videos. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. for passing on your knowledge and experience, it is much appreciated.
Brilliant, simply brilliant! You're the best. I was surprised you bent up that inner structure rather than piecing it together like you've shown on patch panels. Looking forward to more installments. Stay well.
I had been pulling my hair out (what's left of it!) trying to weld Japanese tin foil body panels and had almost convinced myself I was no good at it. Then I watched this. Turns out it wasn't me or my equipment, it was the skinny soup can stuff I was trying to weld. I am now making much better progress. Thank you Fitzee!
Fitzee you sir are my idol!!! I've recently purchased a mig welder and have been stocking up on a scrap sheet metal that I've found and what friends have given me. I've learned a lot from every video you post! I even rewatch most of your vids ! You do amazing work and seem to be a stand up guy! Keep up the great work and by all means keep the videos coming! I'm currently working on a rusted 2004 Sierra 2500 that the rough Buffalo, NY winters have taken its toll on. Wish me luck!!
Your videos are so great! I've learned so much! I really like that you showed more of your work on that second corner of the hood. I understand the concepts of how to do it from your previous videos but it's very instructive to see you do the work. There's a lot that can't be said, better to be seen. Thanks a million!
very nice to see a someone doing what they know well and take time to video the process. A most beautiful labour of luv , cat is awsome too! Blessings to you and the family!!!
I remember the Datsuns and Toyotas from the 70s (graduated H.S. in 1979). They ran well and rusted even better! I think Chevy bought some of that same metal for the front fenders of their early 80s pickup trucks... Outstanding video. You packed a ton of content and knowledge into it - thank you again!
I just purchased a Flux core welder to do home repairs too my lawn mowers and whatever needs welding. I like your videos and I am going too do some of the patch work on my mower decks that have rust through. Great ideas and great instructions. Thank you.
The fact we see how to get over things is priceless. I’m in love with Fitzee! I thought I’d need loads of tools, but nope just hand tools. I wish I had seen this channel earlier. Just wow - I’m a huge fan.
Your videos are packed with tips and tricks. I recently picked up a 72 Duster I plan on using your fabrication techniques for since the aftermarket sheet metal for Mopars is so EXPENSIVE. Thanks for all your help!
Tony I wanted to say thank you I bought a 1950's sunvisor for my 50 buick I was at a yard sale dirt cheap because the main panels were aluminum they had this White corrosion on them and were turning to dust super britle but the chrome trim and mounting hardware was like new so I went to metal super markets bought some 20ga sheet metal the right size and reproduced the main panels out of steel used a propane tank to get the roll in it looks great now to paint it to match I dont think I would tried this job before watching your channel
Another great video showing the details encountered with welding thin sheet metal and how to actually handle blow through!! Thanks again, this really shed light on the problems I encounter every day on my truck. You have a really quick trigger finger!
After watching this I feel much better about my welds, I wanted to hide them under bondo. Now I know I just need to spend a bit more time on my project Thank you from TEXAS my friend
Man of few words compared to the ones who bang on for ages, but the few words you said made absolute sense along with everything you did. Learned more here with a handful of words than anywhere else.. Awesome
Another amazing video! Thank you Fitzee for inspiring me to crack on with my welding project. First time with welding, daunting task but your videos give me the confidence
"It's not your fault, it's the metal's fault." That actually made me feel good.

Welcome to the crowd.
I've welded a few bits and pieces like that over the years, it's like welding the head on a snowman.
This guy is the epitome of the saying,: universe rewards action not thoughts. He jumps in and does it. So positive.

Wow , what a ton of work , that guy loves his Datsun .
Never thought of that way to make small round plugs, I learn something new every day
i like the fact you show us good and bad i.e. blowthru makes me feel better about my welding! cheers, keep up the good work

Not just a master craftsman, but a master instructor. I'm in!

Luv learning fabrication from old timer that has those tricks of trade.teach us more old friend
Nice. Like welding soda cans. We used to joke that was what they were made of when I was a kid.
Thanks for making these videos. I have always struggled with body work and just seeing what the professional do is a great help.
motivation is key when it comes to putting together a mess of rot and twisted metal, watching fritzee, gets my ass off the couch and back into my garage beating the living shit out my 57 dodge truck which i dragged from the brink of being turned to dust , thanks fritzee
By not following the old hood corner pattern. You have made it stronger, which is better in my opinion. Excellent work. I like you're shop helper.
I am working on a 1969 chevy c10, I am using the things I learn here. You are making a difference in the world by doing these vids Fitzee. Thank you.

You are a real master and and your instruction and tips have encouraged me to pickup my Meg again!😊
You're the Mack Daddy of metal fabrication.
I hope the owner appreciates all the work you put into this job...
Thanks for all your good videos. Helped me so much
Tony, we both know its a feel and guess but when you've done it awhile you make it look easy when in reality its not, you have good skills my friend and the patience to make it work!
Dude...you're a beast with the metal fabrication. Good lord you were definitely meant to be doing this...even better you enjoy you work!
The definition of a true craftsman. I restored classic cars (for fun) in my 20's-40s, so I can appreciate the work that goes into it.
This video takes me back to my early childhood when my father and grandfather were in the coal to gas furnace conversion business and made their own sheet metal duct work and copper gutters. I remember the huge breaks (at least they seemed huge to a small child) and other sheet metal equipment and hand tools. I enjoy your videos very mush Fitzee. Thanks

Yet another inspirational lesson on metal working. Keep them coming sir. As CanCruiser said below, you are the new textbook.
I wrap my sandwiches in thicker metal than that hood is made from! Patience level: Infinity.

Your videos have given me the tools needed to do a rusty Fiat 124 Spider restoration. Without them I would be in the weeds. Thank you sir!
i could watch this man all day . so good to see a person who really knows their stuff and boy he really knows what its about.
You are a perfectionist.. Nice job.. I will have to wait until I retire to spend that much time on metal repair.
I keep catching myself averting my eyes from the screen whenever he welds XD
very nice to see a someone doing what they know well and take time to video the process. A most beautiful labour of luv , cat is awsome too! Blessings to you and the family!!!
His videos shows that if you make mistakes you can make it right he stresses just take your time and don't get ahead of yourself. 👍
2 weeks away till I attempt!!!! Love your videos cause you give wisdom and excitement!!!
I remember the Datsuns and Toyotas from the 70s (graduated H.S. in 1979). They ran well and rusted even better!

Learn something new every time I watch your videos. Thanks Fitz 👍
A master class. I wish I could have watched this 2 weeks ago before I started blowing holes in my latest project.
Another master class! Learning the stages to repair tricky shapes without glossing over steps.
Excellent job yet again, Fitzee! Like that rust never even happened!!
This is great information!! We just formed a few large patch panels for our rusted out bug!!
The fact we see how to get over things is priceless. I’m in love with Fitzee! I thought I’d need loads of tools, but nope just hand tools. I wish I had seen this channel earlier. Just wow - I’m a huge fan.

Fantastic repair Fitzee! Thanks for all the tips.
Hands and brains of a surgeon. I’m learning more every vid. Wish you were my neighbor. Excellent !,
A true master of fabrication. The tips were 'great' Fitzee! Thank you.
love your tips and tricks bringing back things that a shop wouldn't touch . thank you for another great lesson my friend .
Another amazing project what an eye for detail !
Found someone who does a mostly complete metal repair instead of backing it up with metal and then filling with plastic!
Another great video showing the details encountered with welding thin sheet metal and how to actually handle blow through!! Thanks again, this really shed light on the problems I encounter every day on my truck. You have a really quick trigger finger!

Beautiful work! Thanks for explaining the process and showing the tools you use. Very practical approach.
Very good job Fitzee. I learn something after watching each of your videos. So thank you for your time showing us. Ronnie.
Thanks Fitzee! Finally got my wheel arch panel in the mail yesterday. It’s time for me to do some welding! Keep up the great videos.
Was amazed how easy you made that bead in the brake. Watching your videos makes me want to start my ‘47 Willy’s project all over again.
