Your last words... “I’ll figure it out.” You say that every time you hit a bump in the road. What is awesome, they aren’t just words... you always walk the talk. And that’s why you succeed.
100% what you said Primus54!! One of the best attitudes I've seen demonstrated in a human in modern times. I sometimes daydream about how awesome it would have been to serve alongside her. Oh, and that razor sharp wit!!! 😍
1) I Love Sarah's Hair with waves or curls😍🌹 2) Lotta Respect Watching Sarah Build these Cars on her own in her garage. I want to say Thank you Sarah for working hard and putting out content for all of us to enjoy. Btw I love your humor. Be Blessed and Stay Safe ✌🏾🌹🤙🏾🌹❤
Hot rodders back in the day were working with inadequate tools in garages (or backyards), and they built some of the coolest cars ever made. You're doing great!
Yea, I was gonna say the same thing. If she had used spot weld cutter, she wouldn’t have had to weld holes. Also a proper spot weld chisel works amazing, and cleaning the paint off the surface helps tremendously.
What makes this so great is that you are doing this. Not a shop or whatever. I can totally respect that. Its always awesome to see people building there own projects.
I'm trying to build a race car, in this garage, with inadequate tools, by myself. So that makes you just like the other 99% of shade tree mechanics in the world. Your doing a great job Sarah, just keep plugging away at it like the rest of us and you'll get it done. And if you need help you have about 281K subscribers that would love to help you, so you are not really alone in this.
I did 20 years working on KC-135 aircraft sheet metal, mostly aluminum repairs, but we had to learn to drill steel, stainless, and even titanium and the key is using the right speed with the right feed pressure. For aluminum, you use a higher speed with little pressure, with steel and stainless you utilize slow speed with more feed pressure, not enough to break the bits as we saw, but enough pressure with the slow speed to produce curls and not chips if possible. Using a cordless drill with the ability to vary the speed is probably your best option because you can reduce the speed easily. You could use high-speed steel or cobalt bits on steel, but it does help to get better quality ones. Another tool you should get is an automatic center punch to spot your initial drill points. Also, if you need to drill off rivets or similar rounded fasteners you can sand/file a flat spot on them first. As for drilling spot welds, you can take a 1/4" bit and flatten the tip angle of the flukes so it can drill through the top sheet but not pierce the bottom so readily. As for welding holes, you can also buy/make a copper "spoon" to put behind the hole to lay the weldment fill across the hole better, the copper won't stick to the steel. They also make magnetic hole fill aids that attach to the back surface and are adjustable for depth, they sort of look/act like Euro cabinet hinges. Using the disc grinder can be difficult in some areas, they make a wand-style die grinder, like a big Dremel, that can use burrs and ceramic stones for cutting, shaping, and smoothing.
some really stellar information there mate! cheers! Its a blessing folks like yourself still passing your knowledge to others. Ive learnt half of what i know because of blokes like yourself. Namaste 😊
Looking awesome in the roll cage intro. Love the hairstyle. You're mechanical skills and video skills are great as well. Some may say you are the total package!!
For smaller holes there is an aluminium foil tape. 2" wide. Works well. Watching your first welds use 2 hands to hold the gun. Mig fills holes really well and quickly.
I literally dropped my sandwich at the 10:00 mark, dayum! I was sad to see the extra clothing after that... but I understand completely... welding is not a time to have exposed skin.
The best way to learn to weld is pretty much what you are doing, repetition. You are improving. Keep making great videos, always entertaining and fun to watch.
Welding up holes in thin sheet metal is some one of the hardest things to do with a welder. Once you master that everything else is a breeze. That is pretty impressive for your first go.
Don't get discouraged. I have built several vehicles from scratch and you have to look at it 1 step at a time. If you look at the whole project all at once it is overwhelming. Break it down into little projects and only concentrate on one at a time. This has helped me get through some really tough builds. Great job.
Charlies a Dang Magician with several Skilzzzzzz!!! Btw SURRAH....as for removing that adhesive. Several machinist, car repair and fabricators told me to use "CITRONELLA Oil or Fuel' to remove Tough adhesives??? I called BullS hit when they told me and broke down and tried it. WOW....it's like a Frickin Miracle!! If it won't come off at first and it's on the roof/ceiling put it on a rag and secure it to the area for a few minutes. I was Dumbfounded how well it worked. Something about the oil/petro/etc.....Damn Magic Bullett stuff right there. Stay Strong Grasshopper.
@@go-dog-go citro oil is great, as too is Eucalyptus oil. i also find WD40 is great for residue. i often have to remove decals and badges with the custom bikes/restos i do. I find a liberal amount of WD40, let soak a little, and a fingernail gets 99.9% of it off 👌 But citronella is a great option, and leaves everything smelling all fresh and lemony 😅🍋
This was the best Sarah show ever! Maybe it was the hair. Maybe it was because I was totally entertained! Maybe both! Keep it up girl, you're doing just great 👍
Fearless Sarah stepping out on new skill welding. I never cease to be surprised at your courage and skill. When this covids over you would be a great person to talk to young ladies about going into the trades. You definitely have your plate full but how about considering being a mentor. You would be awesome!
Hi Sarah, your knowledge on cars is inspiring, always look forward to your next video and I say this with respect....you are off the charts gorgeous! Love your playful humor. Huge thanks for your dedication.
I made the mistake of watching this at work during my lunch hour. I literally laughed out loud when you said “it smells like robots were fucking in my garage” 🤖
Hi Sarah, just a good welding tip for welding holes in sheet metal. Hold a copper bar or flattened water pipe on the back of the sheet. The weld does not stick to copper so you can fill up the hole without the weld faling out of the hole. I always use old copper water or gas tubing that a flatten and bend in different shapes. I even put some wooden handes on some... 😉👍
Sarah. You looked genuinely distraught at the end of the video trying to figure out how you will finish this step. Don't let it get to you. You will succeed in this. You've succeeded in so much just to get to this point. I know you have the strength, ability, and fire to solve this. Take a step back and do the vlog. Indulge your OCD with a deep clean of the garage. Enjoy that moment and when you see the clean garage you'll know that you tackle any challenge! I look forward to your next video.
Finally, Sarah back in your groove but with an updated twist. Jokes, skin, hair and attire, the reasons I started watching your content. Please, keep it going!
Sarah I applaud ya goin for it without a full on body shop set of tools- THATS how I learned how to mod my guitars I sell off my site. Keep rockin chickadee!
weee sarah with curly hair. Its different but liking it . And welding is not that easy as it looks. Needs lots of practice and you get more confident with it .
A little welding tip. When welding near auto glass, you need to protect it from the slag. It won't take much to ruin the glass or explode the glass. They make a welding paper to cover the glass from sparks.
Yes you are building a race car 🏎 I n your garage by yourself!! Ha ha that is why we love your show. We are invested into your success. We are rooting for you!!!!
Never give up on what your doing you are an inspiration to thousands of people and when it comes to welding practice makes perfect keep up the amazing work
Having spent over 30 years replacing rusty metal during classic car restos in the UK- my hobby- I say cracking job for first time, well done! I’d offer to help but it’s a bit of a commute.... One tip- if you can get behind any of the holes, a piece of copper clamped behind means you can build the puddle without risk of blowing through and do a hole almost in one go. I use a bit of 3/4 copper pipe hammered flat if I can’t find anything else. The weld won’t stick to copper. Don’t use brass- it explodes if you electric weld it!
Welders do it in all positions. Love the videos and the way you tell your story about how you are learning about each and every thing you have learned to do. Keep it up. Looks good. I would help you but I’m sure you don’t want every guy knowing where you are.
Once you figure out what your preferred heat and wire speed it can be so much fun. Good on ya.. good to see that bright smile of accomplishment. Digging the curls👍👍.
While I'm just like every other heterosexual male watching your channel and love the short shorts while working on the car, doing this kind of work might be the time to put on some long pants. You are definitely hard core! edit: I just got to the 10 minute mark! Even grinding and drilling sitting in that car with shorts on wouldn't be top of my list.
Please, Sarah! Use active ventilation when welding. Or at least a face mask with a carbon filter! Even short term inhalation of welding fumes can be carcinogenic. Your health comes first!
One tip of advice, when you're welding areas that have nearby paint and epoxies (especially in a confined area), have a small fan behind you lightly blowing the fumes away. But not too strong of a breeze, otherwise it messes up your arc especially if you are using a shielding gas. Welding is fun but not the best thing for your health : )
A tip when welding, if it sounds like frying bacon then you are welding right, if it smells like bacon then you are on fire.
Best advice on the internet.
Haven’t heard that one before! 😂😂
I have smelled like bacon more times than I care to count.
Been there done that... lol 😆
now I feel like a bacon sandwich
The best "that's what she said" content on TH-cam 👍

I'll figure it out....is such a guy thing. :) A combination of dumb and brave. It is something beyond explanation.
She will get it done, she's a champ.
That’s right. That’s why she inspires me to try to crazy things, like trying.
Im just looking forward to watching this series as it progresses. Its inspiring
100% what you said Primus54!! One of the best attitudes I've seen demonstrated in a human in modern times. I sometimes daydream about how awesome it would have been to serve alongside her. Oh, and that razor sharp wit!!! 😍
Sarah you are a badass and run circles around most men in the automotive industry it's a beautiful thing
Sarah I love your hair like this
1) I Love Sarah's Hair with waves or curls😍🌹
2) Lotta Respect Watching Sarah Build these Cars on her own in her garage.

OH MY , Sarah is stepping up the HOTNESS game !!!!!
had my jaw dropped to the floor for half a video.
She passes
Who else was wishing it was colder in her garage?
We need more car videos to show some hair and bulge!
That olive drab top she is rocking must be military grade material because DAYUM !!!!
Spot weld cutters are worth their weight in gold.👍
The beauty is you dont drill through anything.
Oh my gosh search "spot weld cutter" on amazon, they are like hole saws made by the devil.
@@hydroxacte use the flat solid drill type ones, not the teethy holesaw type things
Yea, I was gonna say the same thing. If she had used spot weld cutter, she wouldn’t have had to weld holes. Also a proper spot weld chisel works amazing, and cleaning the paint off the surface helps tremendously.
Thats what I was thinking, like $20 and you get one that will last 150 spot welds easily before needing to change it.
You are not afraid to tackle anything and that's why I admire you. That's why you succeed when you take on a project!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job Sarah, nobody does it perfect their first time.
She’s pretty perfect tho
As Sarah would say, that's what she said. 😂
The world would be a better place if everyone had Sarah's work ethic, passion and perseverance! BIG pharma would go broke!!
"It smells like robots f*cking in the garage" that is an accurate description of the smell of welding gas and burnt metal.
Literally the best thing I have heard her say so far.
What makes this so great is that you are doing this. Not a shop or whatever. I can totally respect that. Its always awesome to see people building there own projects.

"Earth to Common Sense". That line cracked me up. Worth the price of admission right there.
My Respect to you Sarah for taking on this work
Love your tenacity. It may be a long time coming, but you'll have this car ready to go, and it'll be worth it.
Welding up holes in thin sheet metal is some one of the hardest things to do with a welder. Once you master that everything else is a breeze. That is pretty impressive for your first go.
Seriously though Sarah you need to do a Calendar and merch!!! Will sell like hot cakes!
Don't get discouraged. I have built several vehicles from scratch and you have to look at it 1 step at a time. If you look at the whole project all at once it is overwhelming. Break it down into little projects and only concentrate on one at a time. This has helped me get through some really tough builds. Great job.

I ❤ this video. Kudos to you Sarah. You win the internets today.
Charlie said He'd weld the cracks, and then fill the hole. Charlies a lucky man. A man with a plan.

@Sarah -n- Tuned
Don't you even THINK about stopping this AWESOME build, girl!
BTW this curly hair with than green top - fire!!!
This was the best Sarah show ever! Maybe it was the hair. Maybe it was because I was totally entertained! Maybe both! Keep it up girl, you're doing just great 👍
Maybe its the super short shorts....its the whole package!
We the people of the internet believe in you Sarah! You can do the thing! You just need to remember that this will take time.
Every man's dream girl on earth
I honestly can sit and watch you do anything at all.
Ok Sarah, you KNOW how good you look!
This channel is the best. I learn a lot form Sarah every episode. And those shorts were fire!!!
Hoorah you did it! This brought back memories of when I first tried welding sheet metal. It's fun once you figure it out. Keep going love!
Doing projects like that under resourced is the stuff champions are made of keep grinding its fkn awesome.
Funny, was shouting at the screen “turn the gas on!!!” 🤣🤣🤣
😂 yeah!
It's an easy mistake to make when starting off though. She's doing really well for someone who's never really welded before.
Just takes time.
Me too. I was cringing my toes! 😬
Same. Also "open the damn door!" It's not exactly the best idea to weld in an enclosed garage.😳
me too
@@jameshaulenbeek5931 I've done this quite a few times with Tig, burnt up quite a bit of electrode.

When this covids over you would be a great person to talk to young ladies about going into the trades. You definitely have your plate full but how about considering being a mentor.

To envoke the wise words of AvE "Grinder and paint for the welder I aint!"
Yes, you are building race car in a garage with inadequate tools, BUT YOU'RE BUILDING IT! AWESOME!
10:02 you’re welcome
Better to start at 9:58, and get a few more seconds of 😏
T C .. thank you.
Lots of practice sarah,Sarah, doing great.
10:00 You may not be able to weld however you have "high beam" adjustment nailed! No pun intended..
Hi Sarah, your knowledge on cars is inspiring, always look forward to your next video and I say this with respect....you are off the charts gorgeous! Love your playful humor. Huge thanks for your dedication.
After 50 years of welding I don’t remember it ever being called fun. 😂❤️
If she saw the scar tissue I've accumulated after many years welding she'd hire someone for the job.
It's a tuff way to make a buck but welding treated me and my family well....34 yrs
Lots of things can be called 'fun' if you don't have to do them for a living.
Go Sarah! One moment at a time! Don’t count the holes. Stop it! 😎
At around the 10 minute mark, I'm pretty sure a lot of people were on fire too...
I made the mistake of watching this at work during my lunch hour. I literally laughed out loud when you said “it smells like robots were fucking in my garage” 🤖
Just remember Sarah: a grinder and paint makes us the welder we ain't

Liking the new hair style, don't lite it on fire while welding Sarah.
The Miller beer reference is a hoot. What's even more of a hoot, both have Wisconsin bases. You should road trip & tour both Sarah.
Love your hair, girl. Especially when you were sitting in the back of the car.

Anyone old enough to remember Flashdance? this reminds me of that a little with Jenifer Beils being a female welder
You are doing a great job on the Focus Rally Fabrication Sarah and i am Loving following the Build!

You can take your time Sarah we love your work and you. There is no race. Just more great content.
I really like the curly hair. I wish you would wear it like that more often. I assume its easier and faster, so that would be a win win for us both!?
I've been pipe welding for 21 years. Oilfield work. Love it!!

@@mindtraveller100 It's not really the 80s without bangs and hairspray .... lots & lots of hairspray.
That was the best grin ever seen on this channel .excellent.
The “thud” of your elbow made me wince before your reaction.
Love the way you've got your PPE sorted...Safety glasses...Check... Gloves...Check...Hotpants...Check :)
Did you do something different with your hair , I like it just saying.. I always enjoy your videos. You go girl 👧.. 👍🏻✌🏻
I love the tone in your voice when you tell out....."YAY.......!!!!!!"
“I’ve screwed around with a welder but I have never tried to accomplish something successfully”, were you still talking about the car?
Learning on the fly seems harder, but the best way. Looks good to me. After all the welding is done and the flapper cleanup your work will be good.
You're now at "'Liked' Before Viewing" status. Welcome!
Kudos to you for learning a new skill. I like the curls.
"Hole" lot of innuendo here
You are doing it right for a first timer ! Nobody said to weld was easy! You're amazing! And dang girl.. you are so pretty!
Almost everyone starts in a garage by themselves with inadequate tools. The ones who don't? We really HATE them!
Never give up on what your doing you are an inspiration to thousands of people and when it comes to welding practice makes perfect keep up the amazing work
That Miller isn't a beer! It's a welding company.
Having spent over 30 years replacing rusty metal during classic car restos in the UK- my hobby- I say cracking job for first time, well done! I’d offer to help but it’s a bit of a commute....

Yes a "first time wedding" with "Charlie filling her holes"
Welders do it in all positions. Love the videos and the way you tell your story about how you are learning about each and every thing you have learned to do. Keep it up. Looks good. I would help you but I’m sure you don’t want every guy knowing where you are.
And PROTECT THE WINDOWS FROM SPARKS!
Ruined a few windows when 'just gonna grind that little bit' 😞
Yep welding and grinding sparks will ruin what ever they hit.

What a great opening for a video..... even the elbow hit was good......👍
Please, Sarah! Use active ventilation when welding. Or at least a face mask with a carbon filter! Even short term inhalation of welding fumes can be carcinogenic. Your health comes first!
That's no joke, she should invest in fan or something!
Your "I can do this by myself" approach is very inspiering and one of many reasons I got hooked on your videos.
If it sounds like bacon frying you're OK If it smells like bacon you're on fire
One tip of advice, when you're welding areas that have nearby paint and epoxies (especially in a confined area), have a small fan behind you lightly blowing the fumes away.
But not too strong of a breeze, otherwise it messes up your arc especially if you are using a shielding gas. Welding is fun but not the best thing for your health : )
