    An engineer analyzing cars being torn down on a public platform will force automakers to make better products for us. Very different than your standard magazine/internet review that gives a subjective opinion on how a new car feels on the road. In reality though, most cars only have to impress reviewers and last as long as their power train and they might already be there. Love the content! Keep it up! I tipped my cashier!

      @@MunroLive Just a friendly note to let you know that I'm reasonably sure that you need to be careful how you do a raffle on Patreon. Most of the time they're against the TOS because Patreon, quite sensibly, doesn't want to have to deal with all of the legal overhead that would come from being deemed a gambling platform by a jurisdiction that either a winner or creator comes from because there are so many different rules for different places that trying to learn them all and then sort out how to conform to all of them is difficult to impossible. I believe that you can offer raffles while you have a Patreon account but you can't have it as a thing a Patron is entered into as a benefit of being a Patron. If you do go that route, you might want to exclude entries from jurisdictions whose gambling, raffle, lottery, and fundraising rules you may be unfamiliar with just so you don't end up with problems down the road. For example, IIRC, there are some jurisdictions in which you need to get a permit to offer a raffle ticket to people who're in that region, with penalties for breaking the law that can be more than trivial. I should note that I am not a lawyer, and this does not constitute legal advice, merely things that I've read reported.

    • @seabream

      @@markusstrobl1067 You can actually just set a custom $1 pledge if you like. Assuming that you're on a computer, if you scroll down far enough that you're past the "About" section, a floating title bar appears at the top of the window with a "Become a Patron" button on the right side. Click this and then click "Make a custom pledge", which should be below the tiers, then set your pledge, minimum $1, then check out with your preferred payment option. I have a bunch of $1 pledges myself. It fits more with the rate at which I normally support authors - about the price of a softcover book a year, and they get much more of that than they do when I buy a book. Something that I would like to see from Patreon is memberships at different term lengths. For some things six months or a year would make more sense, and would reduce their processing costs.

Sandy maybe providing a different perspective on what the truth is and let the views decide what happened. What they learned. I could see a silly supply chain issue, or a public policy or why not add a little bit of conspiracy in the mix causing an engineering team to change up the design last minute before production and mess everything up and triumph eventually, or not! lots of drama, you know!? lol or maybe industrial mistakes that changed our lives in any way! how projects pivoted through out its life cycle!

    Before 1988 we were dabbling with Synergic MIG welding, it had a tight control loop on the wire feed speed using the arc voltage to keep a consistent distance, and hence power, in the arc. It made hand welding quality much easier to achieve on aluminium. Then in the mid 80's for the stainless steel we had plasma welding which created the weld pool from a sacrificial lip on the work piece. This made the neatest weld I've seen. I guess the technology and the control systems available now will be leagues ahead of that.

    Sandy, you had my attention when the CPU was described as "SPECTACULAR' on the M'3'. Not once but twice.
    I can't wait to hear the superlative, for the new version on the Model 'Y'. Now, you being an instructor, I think
    you're ready to give this build an A+. I hope you get a 'Frankenstang' soon, for a side by side comparison.

    These shows are great, and so educational. I'd like to see them continued for years to come. What would more cool than Sandy walking us through a a few manufacturing plants in a series of videos? It's an insider's look at the industry that nobody else can offer.
    Also, I'd like to be able to buy Munro & Associates tee-shirts and other merchandise to help you through this tough spell.I think that should be a permanent thing. Also, I recommend doing what John McEnroe did over at Autoline. Offer a Patreon link so we can donate to the team.

    Well i'm engineer that works for different automotive company and unfortunately in final assembly and not in body shop ..and i like this video..and you are right about many things.we are still using those old kind of welds..and you can be sure how crazy it gets when you have holes all over the place..well maybe hole isn't the exact name .i think when you weld those materials together you will get lower spots where water could go throu..or some other crazy stuff...also the screw you mentioned..that is common i have to say..designer didn't think or didn't think it would be better for ppl in production to make it easier..so they will come up with two or 3 types ob bolts..then you have to change sockets...and then it takes years to correct it..instead to use simple rules ..make it better for production to be able assembly it easier..faster..cheaper..with less tools ..less waste and so on..

    @Munro As you correctly pointed out, most of us are fairly young (Tesla has a habit of attracting young folk). If i might offer a piece of advice: hire a social media manager (if you didn't already). Your company and persona have great media potential as the leading :
    1) Tesla critic
    2) Lens for average people to understand the engineering inside a (mostly Tesla) product
    3) Narrator of the evolution, the Tesla engineering has undergone
    If you were to optimize these things, you might find yourself to be even more of a target for talented engineers job applications (which is something you care about as i understand, less about the fame)
    Also as another source of revenue of course. These days people spend even more time online. Just live stream your work on Twitch.tv or something like that.

      The bodies (BIW) are made on dedicated lines. Before shut-down General Assembly (where painted body turns into completed vehicle) was being done on same line, though not at same time. They built a run of Y then swap part supply back to build run of 3. GA for S and X runs both vehicles on same line at same time.

    • @chstra45
      @chstra45 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@donm2255 depends on what you mean by changes. Some parts will start showing up in 3 over time. If you're thinking major changes to body, some were already made. But some changes aren't worth cost. Equipment was bought and installed already (millions $$), why throw it out. When Sandy says "it's not done this way" he's saying there is a less costly way to get the same result. Using more equipment, taking more time is wasteful. Not that it's unsafe or wrong exactly. If you've already invested in the equipment, damage done. You need a really good reason to create further wasted spending by throwing it out.

    Can you please discuss the rubber molding that is around the doors and trunk openings? My model 3 has a bunch of ripples and bends that make it not fit seamlessly and it looks bad. I was hoping they cleaned this up in the Y, because it looks terrible from a fit and finish perspective. It’s almost like the molding wasn’t formed to fit in specific areas and was just manually pushed into the corners of the trunk and door openings. BTW this series you are doing is fabulous:) Thank you.
