Dude it's your channel,do whatever blows your skirt up and ignore the whining ones trying to make someone else bow down to their demands... Keep on doing what you're doing man..
I wish I had half the stuff he has... I'm stuck using an angle grinder and my welding machine because the power in my garage sucks. I have a Dewalt cutoff saw and a drill press I cant run.
Don't listen to the haters man. I fabricate a lot of stuff in my home shop, and I have to do EVERYTHING with a bloody grinder and saws. I hate it! I have CNC envy, but I'm not going to shit talk you, because I'm jealous. I'm going to do something about it and buy myself one. Cause I can see that what you can acomplish with it is amazing! I love your videos, and I think your editing style is great. It always seems to be a good mix, and you don't dwell too long on any one thing, until it gets boring. Thumbs up!
There are people in the world and if you gave them a bar of gold, they would ask why didn’t you polish this???? Continue to do you. I’m amazed that you work a full time job, run a homestead and a family, still find time to build these incredible vehicles and video it for our enjoyment. Keep doing what you do please because it’s an inspiration. I’m 65 and as my grandchildren say, haters gonna hate. 😂 Also you saved another vehicle from the scrap bin. Thank you.
Haters gonna hate Mike, I've been watching since the predator engine dirt bike days and I love watching all aspects of your vids. You have mad engineering and fabrication skills.
Mike it’s your channel not anyone else’s. Do what you do so well, teach and entertain. Remember we often live life by a set of rules that don’t exists. Do it your way. Chris
Mike, you are too nice. Let those guys work harder and go through 10 grinding wheels if that's what they want to do. We all know you can freehand a grinder for a door panel. Keep doing your thing brother 🤘🏻
07:15 The CNC footage is amazing - could watch it all day myself! I think you could be right abo the "CNC envy" out there though... 🤔 Just keep being you - that's why we tune in!
I dig every part of your builds. People are always find something to gripe about. If you offered to give every viewer a gold bar, there would be a handful that said they prefer silver. As long as you keep building, I'll keep watching.
This thing is super badass and takes those inclines like a champ. I would say I'm impressed but then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Mike Festiva. You are one hell of a fabricator and i always enjoy your videos, including the CNC stuff. The hell with the Karen's who don't like all aspects of fab work.
Wow! Absolutely amazing. A lethal mix of skill and intelligence. Mike , from my heart congratulations, outstanding work , blows me away. If I had CNC and the knowledge of how to use it I would do everything on it . To see it drive is miraculous, thank you very much for the viewing pleasure and I appreciate the drum solo. Brilliant, thank you. Class act Mike. Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude. Quality. Respect.
Yeah you should definitely take the 15 seconds of cnc footage you routinely show and edit that down to around 13 seconds, then finally I’ll be able to sleep at night. Seriously though I’ve watched all your builds, great stuff. The hill climbing ability of that machine is impressive.
Haha I will definitely cut that down to 13 seconds 😂 should help! Thanks for checking out my new video and commenting! I definitely appreciate it. Take care
Some didn't like your drum break and now CNC cutting? Geez, nobody is forcing you to watch it. Just loving this build and wow can it climb. Pretty impressive. Keep us posted on that shop talk thing, sounds interesting.
Awesome as hell my dude! That machine is a beast. Climbs like a work horse. I enjoy everything about your videos Mike. Thanks for taken us along for the ride..
Dude I am a big fan 330lbs lol ...... jk....... I love all your content. And once a month shop talk is an awsome idea. Love to be a moderator for you. Your CNC series is very in depth. Watched the dump truck since the beginning.... now the 6X6 .... and the CNC starters guild.... You are very generous and genuine with your time to give us such great content... Thank you
Yeah I totally agree, it's really difficult to find a DIY/Engineering channel without horrible loud jarring music. The Lo-Fi hip-hop jazz here is fantastic !
How could you not like seeing the CNC? The rest of us that watch you on the reg, just like seeing you work, and seeing all your work with all your tools. Great vids, always consistent. Keep up the great work. You really are one of 3 guys I watch every single video you guys put out. Great content. As I said, keep up the great work!!!
Dear people that complain about footage length......THERE IS A PROGRESS BUTTON.....MOVE IT YOURSELF. 13:44 SOLD! Great looking so far!!!! Gonna be killer!!!!!
Don't listen to the haters, your never going to please everyone especially the keyboard warriors, they just like stirring the pot, your doing an awesome job, wish i had all your equipment especially that cnc, that thing is sweet, keep up the good work bud can't wait to see the finished product! Btw that last 90 degree hill climb was impressive, went right up no hesitation
I think you work entirely too hard to worry about what a select few people think. The majority of my motivation to do my own builds comes from guys like you. CNC or by hand I enjoy your videos and all the content. From the welder videos all the way to the 212 dirt bike. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for always checking out my videos 👍 there’s still some extra roll cage I’m finishing up in the next part of the series, it’s really going to take shape then. Take care
So bad ass! I'm curious about how you're going to complete the seams. There isn't a way to make everyone happy, rock the drum solos and show the cnc footage, do you bro!
re: CNC. This is not a "how to make this in the viewer's home shop" type video, if it were, then yeah, manual marking and cutting is appropriate. This video is about how Mike Festiva made it in his shop. Use the best tools for the job, don't waste time doing things the hard way, unless the video is an instructional how-to with minimum viable tools.
Another great vid Don't listen to the negative comments, there's a lot of sad people out there who will never be happy unless they're moaning about something. Off road performance looks great even with a light rear load Cheers Ian
Those people complaining about the cnc vids are probably watching the wrong channel. You're doing a great job and making awesome content, don't listen to those who just want to be negative.
yes to new video format / more videos PLEASE! i would prefer walk and talk so we can see more of the property, and othe projects like the dump truck.... instead of just one angle vlog style... maybe switch it up every 2 or 3 minutes. love this channel!
Anyone complaining about seeing the cnc stuff need to stfu I’m tired of all the channels cutting out all things such as build montages or them actually building the machine because people in the comments say it’s boring but I feel like a lot of people feel the same as me when I say I love watching the entire process so I can learn from you, someone more advanced so keep doing whatever you feel
I like watching your videos because of all the different things you do. At least that's why I tune in, if they don't like the content don't watch that part. Pretty simple I think.
OUTSTANDING WORK. Mike you could teach your own class. The way you see a future project in someone else's junk is a gift. The CNC table is the best. We like your channel because of your amd who you are!!
You were right about the roof-chop - looks just right. Made me laugh when you were driving along nice flat road and then perversely took the hardest exit angle - what grip and stability! Maybe this is a Hafpinzgauer..?!
These videos aren't just a display of Master craftsmanship, they're also quite soothing in the chill environment you display. I wouldn't change a thing!... Keep up the good work!
Because 1 is mesmerizing. 2. because fuck them they are fucking haters typing form moms basement...or they hate their wife because she points out thier own shortcomings.
If NASA had a TH-cam channel you would have a hundred comments about the music, the volume, the smell of the rocket fuel or that you need a manicure. It’s your channel, maybe it’s not perfect for everyone but I like it the way it is.👍😎
To anyone complaining about watching Mike's CNC table in operation: Consider that it takes him considerable time and effort to make these videos, and share his skills, and (and least to my mind) all that great content we get for free gives him the right to plug a tool that any of us could use, and from which he will (rightly) get a little kick-back if we buy through his link (and save ourselves money in the process). He's not asking a lot, and personally I don't mind watching it anyway! As the old saying goes: "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." So why not just do your bit to support the channel by simply keeping quiet?
They are the same people that think that screaming from the sidelines equals knowledge. If you don't like what he's doing, LEAVE! It was a commonly understood concept a coupe years back and it worked...Some of us still understand the concept.
Mike! That thing is a freakin' mountain goat! Wow. And the door turned out great. This is such a cool build. A classic case of "One person's Rose is another person's weed" is that every time you go for a test run in the woods I'm cringing as you run over all those ferns. The only ferns in Southern California are those you buy, plant and water. And up there they are just weeds! LOL!
I can't believe there's loads of people bitching about whatever and making you worry about catering to them. No doubt half these people couldn't put together even a quarter of what you have in this series. You do you, the people who truly appreciate your content aren't going anywhere.
Another great video! I enjoy the Drum break,you certainly have a lot of talent! From your fabrication skills,to welding to building. Tool talk with Mike sounds very interesting. I would definitely tune in for that. I love tool reviews/talks about them.
Mike love your builds and the artistry of your videos. I like the CNC segments! Don't worry about the haters my man, they are so few. Keep the faith and the builds coming!
That's what the WEB is for: Sitting on the Sofa and watching cool people working. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD!! Mike, if you have one day no more idea for a new projekt( 🤣) ,have a look at the first Mercedes Benz UNIMOG from the 1950s. It's look is comparable with the Pinz. I would be very interested in mini version. 👍👍👍
Maybe on one of the shop talks you could talk about when you started figuring out you liked building/fabrication and how you got into it. Or why you got into it! I’d watch it!
Please keep some CNC content - its very motivating to see what can be achieved quickly, accurately and repeatedly. Great job Mike.
Dude it's your channel,do whatever blows your skirt up and ignore the whining ones trying to make someone else bow down to their demands... Keep on doing what you're doing man..
agree
Wicked seeing it climbing, watching the CNC table in action is therapeutic, It's amazing, if they don't like watching it, fast forward !!
Always enjoy the music, attention to detail and quality of your work 👍
I cant wait till I can afford my own cnc table 😩 sooooo many possibilities for cool stuff. Mounting brackets, decals, name plates...
Not sure why anyone would complain about the CNC clips. I could watch that all day.
Fuck me sideways this is one of the best projects I've seen on TH-cam, and keep the CNC content, it's part of the build, it's your channel, you do you
I’m here for all the fabrication, no matter what tools you use, it’s all cool to see.
Thanks buddy 🙂
Here here I agree!!
I wish I had half the stuff he has... I'm stuck using an angle grinder and my welding machine because the power in my garage sucks. I have a Dewalt cutoff saw and a drill press I cant run.
The skills he has is amazing... my fabrication only comes in the form of fabricating a story to save my ass!
Don't listen to the haters man. I fabricate a lot of stuff in my home shop, and I have to do EVERYTHING with a bloody grinder and saws. I hate it! I have CNC envy, but I'm not going to shit talk you, because I'm jealous. I'm going to do something about it and buy myself one. Cause I can see that what you can acomplish with it is amazing!

Keep doing what you do please because it’s an inspiration. I’m 65 and as my grandchildren say, haters gonna hate. 😂 Also you saved another vehicle from the scrap bin. Thank you.
Absolutely! Thank you Dale!
Haters gonna hate Mike, I've been watching since the predator engine dirt bike days and I love watching all aspects of your vids. You have mad engineering and fabrication skills.
Thanks Kevin I really appreciate it 👍
Mike it’s your channel not anyone else’s. Do what you do so well, teach and entertain. Remember we often live life by a set of rules that don’t exists. Do it your way. Chris
Right on Chris! Thanks
Mike, you are too nice. Let those guys work harder and go through 10 grinding wheels if that's what they want to do. We all know you can freehand a grinder for a door panel. Keep doing your thing brother 🤘🏻

Man that thing climbs! VERY COOL. Please .......do some SHOP TALK vids. CNC content rocks as well.
Can’t please everyone. I personally love seeing the CNC cut outs you do. Thank you for the video.
This thing is super badass and takes those inclines like a champ. I would say I'm impressed but then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Mike Festiva. You are one hell of a fabricator and i always enjoy your videos, including the CNC stuff. The hell with the Karen's who don't like all aspects of fab work.
Thanks Derek I really appreciate it!
It definitely climbs pretty good 👍
For sure interested in the shop talk series!
Awesome 👍 Thanks Phil
Shop talk sounds like a good series!
Can’t make everyone happy. These projects you do are always great!
Going from a bunch of parts to taking those inclines like a champ! It has been awesome to watch this build. - Josh in customer service
Thanks Josh I really appreciate it!
Thanks for checking out my new video 🙂
I just love the way this build comes together. Fantastic fabrication skills.
Thank you 🙂
Wow! Absolutely amazing. A lethal mix of skill and intelligence. Mike , from my heart congratulations, outstanding work , blows me away. If I had CNC and the knowledge of how to use it I would do everything on it . To see it drive is miraculous, thank you very much for the viewing pleasure and I appreciate the drum solo. Brilliant, thank you. Class act Mike.
Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude. Quality. Respect.
Looken good Mike! Love watching all the CNC!!!
Not gonna lie, digging the drum mix over welding stuff.
Thanks James 👍
Yeah you should definitely take the 15 seconds of cnc footage you routinely show and edit that down to around 13 seconds, then finally I’ll be able to sleep at night.
Seriously though I’ve watched all your builds, great stuff. The hill climbing ability of that machine is impressive.

Just loving this build and wow can it climb. Pretty impressive.
Keep us posted on that shop talk thing, sounds interesting.
Just can’t please everyone lol! Thanks Ryan
Awesome as hell my dude! That machine is a beast. Climbs like a work horse. I enjoy everything about your videos Mike. Thanks for taken us along for the ride..
FWIW, I *LOVE* the CNC stuff. I appreciate that you put it, along w/ grinder stuff, at high speed.
How about calling it "diggin' up the dirt" shop talk with Mike Festiva.
Yeah keep the cnc stuff. I could watch it all day too.
Dude I am a big fan 330lbs lol
...... jk....... I love all your content. And once a month shop talk is an awsome idea. Love to be a moderator for you. Your CNC series is very in depth. Watched the dump truck since the beginning.... now the 6X6 .... and the CNC starters guild.... You are very generous and genuine with your time to give us such great content... Thank you
No thank you 👍
Mike bring on the CNC! Love watching all your videos! Just amazing!
It climbed that hill like it was nothing! when finished it will be a off-road monster!
Seriously, man... That smooth, noir jazz is devine.
Yeah I totally agree, it's really difficult to find a DIY/Engineering channel without horrible loud jarring music.
The Lo-Fi hip-hop jazz here is fantastic !
100% looking forward to a shop talk series.
6 wheel drive for the Win !
It's got as much traction as a mountain goat !
It looks like a little "Evil Lair" service vehicle from a 70's Bond movie !
How could you not like seeing the CNC? The rest of us that watch you on the reg, just like seeing you work, and seeing all your work with all your tools. Great vids, always consistent. Keep up the great work. You really are one of 3 guys I watch every single video you guys put out. Great content. As I said, keep up the great work!!!
Dear people that complain about footage length......THERE IS A PROGRESS BUTTON.....MOVE IT YOURSELF.
13:44 SOLD!
Great looking so far!!!! Gonna be killer!!!!!

Btw that last 90 degree hill climb was impressive, went right up no hesitation
Squash the haters. Do what you do.. It's what you got you here.
Don't Understand how such an interesting Channel with so much to learn from only has 134K Subs?
Inspiring and brilliant work as always Mike.
Appreciate that a lot 👍
I gotta say mike- this thing is 6x cooler than a 6x6 ATV!!
Thanks John! It’s not going to win any races 😂 but it’s definitely got some cool styling👍 thanks buddy for checking out my new video!
Love your projects. Ignore the whiners and do what you do.
Thanks Tom 👍 I appreciate it 🙂
I think you work entirely too hard to worry about what a select few people think.
The majority of my motivation to do my own builds comes from guys like you.
CNC or by hand I enjoy your videos and all the content. From the welder videos all the way to the 212 dirt bike.
Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks 😊 I appreciate it 👍
Roll cage looks way more finished with the gusset plates.
* Personally, I like seeing the CNC cuts.
Thanks for always checking out my videos 👍 there’s still some extra roll cage I’m finishing up in the next part of the series, it’s really going to take shape then. Take care
So bad ass! I'm curious about how you're going to complete the seams. There isn't a way to make everyone happy, rock the drum solos and show the cnc footage, do you bro!
Your Fab skills are awesome, I'll watch whatever you put on your channel. Thanks for the videos
Thanks for the support 👍 I really appreciate it 🙂
DON''''''''' change nothin ! I like watchin the table!!
I appreciate that!
I personally love watching the CNC cut
re: CNC. This is not a "how to make this in the viewer's home shop" type video, if it were, then yeah, manual marking and cutting is appropriate. This video is about how Mike Festiva made it in his shop.
Use the best tools for the job, don't waste time doing things the hard way, unless the video is an instructional how-to with minimum viable tools.
CNC envy?😂 gets my juices going every time. I want one just to play with!
PS. Im proud of you!
Another great vid
Don't listen to the negative comments, there's a lot of sad people out there who will never be happy unless they're moaning about something.
Off road performance looks great even with a light rear load
Cheers

Love the CNC cuts. 🤘Keep up the great work!!
Those people complaining about the cnc vids are probably watching the wrong channel.
You're doing a great job and making awesome content, don't listen to those who just want to be negative.
Thank you Josh 👍
I second what Josh said, Mike. Don't change a thing and don't listen to the haters. You just keep doing you.
yes to new video format / more videos PLEASE! i would prefer walk and talk so we can see more of the property, and othe projects like the dump truck.... instead of just one angle vlog style... maybe switch it up every 2 or 3 minutes. love this channel!

People come here to see what you do, how you do. Don’t worry about everyone do you and the true fans will be here.
Thanks Mike for the positive comments👍 I really appreciate it!
I like watching your CNC video. It truly shows what can be done by the home craftsman.
I would definitely like a shop talk series
Mike I see that you are a "pleaser" but you cant please everyone so please yourself. I enjoy the CNC Cuts and love the precision that the CNC gives
Way to not kink-shame the angle grinder stans! That's very open of you. Now gimme that robot torch, please.
I like watching your videos because of all the different things you do. At least that's why I tune in, if they don't like the content don't watch that part. Pretty simple I think.
I think you should call it the mountain goat! This thing is ridiculously good at climbing!!!
That's a beast Mike! All your weight out front, that sucker will climb a wall!
That traction on the inclines was amazing, Im impressed!
OUTSTANDING WORK. Mike you could teach your own class. The way you see a future project in someone else's junk is a gift. The CNC table is the best. We like your channel because of your amd who you are!!
You were right about the roof-chop - looks just right. Made me laugh when you were driving along nice flat road and then perversely took the hardest exit angle - what grip and stability!
Maybe this is a Hafpinzgauer..?!
These videos aren't just a display of Master craftsmanship, they're also quite soothing in the chill environment you display. I wouldn't change a thing!... Keep up the good work!
Thanks Christopher 👍 I try to make videos that are enjoyable and chill to watch. Thanks for commenting I really appreciate it 🙂
Im jealous of the cnc but i love wqtching the cnc.
I am formally requesting MORE CNC SHOTS!
Because 1 is mesmerizing. 2. because fuck them they are fucking haters typing form moms basement...or they hate their wife because she points out thier own shortcomings.
The climbing capability looks great.......love this build 👍
I love watching the CNC cutter in action.
If NASA had a TH-cam channel you would have a hundred comments about the music, the volume, the smell of the rocket fuel or that you need a manicure. It’s your channel, maybe it’s not perfect for everyone but I like it the way it is.👍😎
Absolute perfection!! This is the coolest little rig!
To anyone complaining about watching Mike's CNC table in operation:
Consider that it takes him considerable time and effort to make these videos, and share his skills, and (and least to my mind) all that great content we get for free gives him the right to plug a tool that any of us could use, and from which he will (rightly) get a little kick-back if we buy through his link (and save ourselves money in the process).

Appreciate that Andrew!!!
They are the same people that think that screaming from the sidelines equals knowledge. If you don't like what he's doing, LEAVE! It was a commonly understood concept a coupe years back and it worked...Some of us still understand the concept.
This build is so great; from concept to execution. Thanks for this series.
Also, I like the CNC parts.
Appreciate it Nick!
CNC envy for sure...
Roof line looks so much better! I can't wait to see this complete!
I definitely like the look of it lower too 👍
That is an awesome machine Mike. So glad I was able to be along for the whole build.
Very good work, well done. Don't let us wait to long til you continue, I can hardly wait to see it finish.
Most people do not understand g&m code but I enjoy watching your videos so do as you wish
Got Damn.... That thing is no joke. Let's goooo!
Dude your content is awesome. Whatever is in the video is great, I dig the music, the cnc, the projects. Thanks for the content!
Crawled right up that steep hill no issues very awesome 👏😎👌👍 @Mike Festiva
You cant plz everyone.....you do you boo we'll be here loving your builds....
I'd love to listen to you talk about your shop and projects once a month
Man I love your builds. The inclines this thing climbs are insane, it's a freaking mountain goat.
Looks like it works awesome Mike! Also, I'm loving the resurgence of regular drum solos, and the music production in general is awesome.
The articulation on the suspension is amazing. Loving this build
Mike! That thing is a freakin' mountain goat! Wow. And the door turned out great. This is such a cool build.
A classic case of "One person's Rose is another person's weed" is that every time you go for a test run in the woods I'm cringing as you run over all those ferns. The only ferns in Southern California are those you buy, plant and water. And up there they are just weeds! LOL!
lol we have fern alll over here your right lol! Thanks for supporting my channel
Just came across your videos in the last few weeks and loving them, even the CNC cutting
Awesome thanks for watching
I can't believe there's loads of people bitching about whatever and making you worry about catering to them.
No doubt half these people couldn't put together even a quarter of what you have in this series.
You do you, the people who truly appreciate your content aren't going anywhere.
Thanks Man I really appreciate it 🙂👍
That machine is coming along nicely ! Love what you have done and can't wait to see where it goes from here . 🤯
It’s looking fantastic ❤️
Looking good!!!!!! 10👍👍👍👍👍
Live shop talk would be great
Another great video! I enjoy the Drum break,you certainly have a lot of talent! From your fabrication skills,to welding to building. Tool talk with Mike sounds very interesting. I would definitely tune in for that. I love tool reviews/talks about them.
Mike love your builds and the artistry of your videos. I like the CNC segments! Don't worry about the haters my man, they are so few. Keep the faith and the builds coming!
That's what the WEB is for: Sitting on the Sofa and watching cool people working. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD!!
Mike, if you have one day no more idea for a new projekt( 🤣) ,have a look at the first Mercedes Benz UNIMOG from the 1950s. It's look is comparable with the Pinz. I would be very interested in mini version.
👍👍👍
Maybe on one of the shop talks you could talk about when you started figuring out you liked building/fabrication and how you got into it. Or why you got into it! I’d watch it!
Definitely into seeing any content you put out, including shop talk segments
