Those people that are naysayers, just open your mind and loosen your hands. Working diligently can come natural to anyone who works at this craft. Easy peasy with time and due diligence.
@@victoryfirst2878 I don't have a place for it at the moment but I really enjoy metalwork. For me the key is to do a lot of head scratching to figure out the best way for me to make the shape I want, then carefully work the metal into shape. I like Fitzee's approach at combining simple shapes into a complex shape. It makes things possible you ordinarily could not do without far more complex tools.
I picked up a Migpak 140 the other week on sale I used to have a migpak10 that i hated. I am busting it out of the box to try some of the things I have learned from your videos
Awesome work.!! Only thing I might add is could we see the finished product with some primer on it to help see it since the camera picks up a lot of glare and a lot of the detail is hard to see on video and I don't want to miss seeing any of it.. Thanks for making these videos..
Everything is simple if you think one step at a time. When looking at the whole project, it's intimidating. The trick in everything is the sequence. You da man Fitzee!
@Will Swift if you were replying to me, I'm just offering my view. Without the how to by Fitzee, I wouldn't get any farther than cutting a sheet of metal oversized. He showed the steps he uses to make this part. I install floor coverings, carpet, vinyl, laminate etc. A new large job can be intimidating, especially so with a difficult layout or materials that are very hard to work with. You don't look at the entire completed job and get overwhelmed. If you know the process, you just start..... You don't worry about the entire process just the first process....... vacuum the floor, install tackstrips, then pad, then cut the carpet, then do the seams.... etc.
There is always at least one "wow, that's clever!" moments in Fitzee's videos. Making a template from a section of the old panel and cutting the slits for marking was one of the very best. Oh yes Fitzee, the tips were good. Thank you!
Cutting big slits like that is not accurate at all. You use a tape measure and scribe marks that’s all you need. He made it so much hatred then needs to be
Fitzee I used to own an orange Datsun truck the same color orange as the truck bed your repairing.. The reason I remember it so well it it was an extended cab truck which for my area was kinda rare back in the 80's. Dont know how I ended up here at your channel but sure glad I did!
Hello from the UK, i have been following you how you make panels, i was in the motor trade for best part of 40yrs, now retired and restoring a 1989 Ford Transit MK/3 Camper (they were called a Frisky), i wish to thankyou for your time spent showing how to make repair panels, i am now making quite a few of my own repair panels, the way you show how its done is great, and i am saving a lot of money of not buying panels in the meantime, keep up the excellent tuition.
From the far west(wet) coast of Canada (Vancouver Island) I thank you for sharing your trade, too many great craftsman are gone/retired and their skills never past on to the next generation. Your teachings will be watch by many generations to come… keep it up, you are a gifted teacher Mr Fritzee.
I learn a lot from your videos. When I'm in the garage and there's a tricky part on the car I usually say to myself "what would Fitzee do?". And that helps! 👍😂
Thanks again Fitzee for joining in with you in your Newfoundland laboratory/garage on making the profiled bed panel with simple tools, seamstress tape, scribes, dividers and markers. Making do and keeping things simple. Thank you very much for your time in sharing these repairs that can be challenging to some of us. When I weld any type of plug hole, I try to get to the parent metal edges first, since that is the holding strength, then fill in the divot if need be.
Thank's for sharing your expertise with us,not everybody is as willing as you.I have over 40 years in auto repair bussiness,I have done alot of rust repair but you showed me a new way I find it very exciting to try,again thank you
Hey folks, after watching Fitzee make that jogged panel for the floor corner of that truck bed, I am fully convinced there is nothing sheet metal that Fitzee cannot replicate! Just love your videos Fitzee!
That was a great idea notching the panel at both ends, by making the panel alittle bit bigger on both ends you were able to cut your notch on both ends and not losing your mark and when you used vise grips on both ends you could recreate your bends. Very clever or you. You are a great teacher and I appreciate watching your educational videos.
Thanks for showing us your way of replacing the panels on this bed. I love to watch how different guys get the job done. They came out great. I love learning different way of doing things and you are a great teacher. Again thanks and keep them coming - later
At the beginning I thought there might be some difficult hammer forming. Should have known you would find an easier way, with equal or better results. Thanks for the instruction.
@@turboflush the new politicians want to make a conversion to electric a truck would make the easiest for battery space , just food four thought ,🤔✌️👍💪🇺🇸⚡😸
I'm constantly impressed with how he takes a panel with a complex shape and simplifies it into easier to work with shapes and then just welds it together. It seems obvious, but sometimes I look at something and can't immediately see how to take it apart like he can.
Great video, Fitzee, you answered my questions as I asked them in real time, like I was standing in the shop with you. I've learned more from you about fab in 6 months than I could learn in 10 years piddling with my junk. Thank you for taking the time to document and share your experience with us!!
Holy craaaaap! You are the man! I need to raise the bed area over the diff (axle flip) and just put the word out this week for donor beds. I only need abt 6x48”. I’ll be able to fab it!
Thanks for making a hard project doable. Your tips were on the money. That part where you took a piece off the old box and cut slit in it and then flattened it was pure genius. Great Job. Looks factory built.
Learned another slick trick. I'm gonna put this to use on my Fairlane firewall. I've got a stiffening rib that goes away to nothing. You showed a clever way to make this happen. Thanks again!
Amazing. Everyone that tells me you can’t do quality sheet metal work without a tig I just send them over to your channel. Love everything about this. Also I had to make a similar panel for my 68 double cab and it came out great! Wish I saw this first.
This is perfect, my ‘72 commando has an identical shape towards the top/bottom of the rear floor and I couldn’t figure out how to get the shape without hammering it in. This is great thank you!
You make it to see so simple and easy! Congratulations! Thanks so much for the tips! Really enjoy the details in the construction of your version of the parts! Again, thanks from Mexico city!
I have just subscribed, you my friend are clever and super creative. When you see the number of tools being sold and for a lot of money to do the same job, you my friend are a savior.
Fitzee your the best by far, i had gone to a paint and body votec many years ago for the basics and i have learned more from you and your techniques and being able to use what you have. i have been recommending you and your video's to all my car club buddies thanks Fitzee
Another great video Tony, I've been stuck at home on the couch after knee surgery and have watched many videos with guys doing patch repair with some being okay and others just down right horrible. You however, take it step by step with each video and describe what, why, and how in your process with the basic of tools and take a seemingly impossible task and show how to manage the task without being overwhelmed which is why i find your videos so riveting.
I just recently found your channel. And as many have already said you do very good work and make excellent videos. But what I would especially like to thank you for is reminding me of a dear old farmer I use to visit on occasions and loved to listen to him tell stories. You sound just like him and have the same speech pattern and accent as him. I moved away and I'm sure he has since passed away by now. Thank you for the found memories.
Great Job Master!!!!!. It is a pleasure to see someone who knows how to do it work. Thank you for sharing what you know. Greetings from Uruguay. SALUDOS!!!!
Fitzee, you did it to me again. I figured I'd watch about 15 minutes while I eat lunch and watch the rest tonight. Anyway, I watched the whole thing. I'm behind schedule, but it was time well spent. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.😊😊
Hallo Fitzee a very good tip indeed. My friend tried to make /bend my Jaguar front floor pan acouple a months ago but he could not managed to get the shape right.It was very difficult to flip it forword and backwards "like a pancake " in the bender. The hight and distance didn't want to play along byt i think with this tip off yours we could managed to get it right this time.I have learned a lit from your videos that i actually making my own panels for repairs.Ones again thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion off metal shaping with us so that we can tackle our own projects.
As a metal shaper I never get tired of watching and learning. Good job making it look factory new! 👍🏻👍🏻Personally I would have tortured myself by shrinking the metal to form those ramps at the end of the ribs but that’s my problem.
My wife has a Jeep Commander. The rear door is rusting out at the bottom. I have done basic body repair with bondo, but I have watched 8 of your videos, own the basic tools you use, and practiced butt welds the way you demonstrated. I’m ready to try this repair. You are an excellent teacher and an artist.
Very good job on that truck floor. Love the way you made that like a production run with the template piece. Great idea cutting little Nick's in it. Tony's motto don't make it hard when you can make it easier. You remind of my father never dive into a job without a plan. It saves a lot of time and trouble. Great video's learning a lot thanks Ruth Great Britain.
You are a master. I’ve been painting and restoring cars for over 40 years. You make me feel like an amateur. I could never do what you do or get someone to pay me to build panels on an old Toyota truck. These videos are what life was like before reproduction panels. Before mig welders we used brazing rods and coat hangers and a torch.
Another fantastic how to Fitzee. Tips were great, i always keep a scribbler beside me when I watch your channel, so I can stop, pause, and write down every tip you give. This video filled two pages!!! Thank you again, and from Winnipeg... keep your stick on the ice! Cheers Rob.
Great work. I had to do this by hand on my first car that had holes in the floor pan, old Holden Gemini with big holes in the boot pan, made all new panels with a hammer chisel anvil lumps of wood and some sheet metal. Was rather complex but like you said there was no replacment parts available so had to be remade.
Excellent work again, that will save a lot of boot floor's also, my 1977 Ford Escort has a boot floor like this, we call the trunk a boot over in lreland, thanks again
This is a timely video for me, because I have a 67 C10 truck bed that needs the same type of repairs. Your attention to detail is amazing and how you share your knowledge is priceless. Little details like the weld through primer, how to clean off primer in plug weld holes with the drill bit tip, and how to weld plug welds is stuff that you don't see anywhere else. I wish I could have learned from you 35 years ago. My metalworking skills and welding would have been so much easier. I have had to learn by trial and error and I still don't know one thousandth of what you do. Thank you for helping amateurs like me who can't afford to pay a restoration shop thousands of dollars to repair rusted out projects.
I was fabricating floor pans for my 68 Bronco this weekend. As I was spotting and trimming I could hear your voice in my head: "Just gonna cut and butt this here..." I love fabricating, and I really enjoy watching someone with skills like yours make something from nothing! Hope all is well.
"I'm not one for big expensive fancy tools", @ 22:59.
That's why we love you and your videos Fitzee!
How to make the truck bed panel is great.
I could not figure out how to do that.
Great thanks you
You know it's a good video when you don't realize that you just sat for an hour watching it. Good stuff. Thanks again
Most builders will say you can't make a panel like that. Fitzee says "hold my beer." Thanks for sharing your expertise with mere mortals.
Pop y gxget pop pop
And the beer can he made with a grinder….LOL!

And a most congenial manner in his delivery. A friend to us all.

Everything is simple if you think one step at a time. When looking at the whole project, it's intimidating.
The trick in everything is the sequence.

The Milwaukee markers are the only ones that wont wipe off of duct work. I found that out about six years ago and that is all I use now.

Does look great! Amazing job and excellent tutorial!!! God bless you my friend!!! Regards from Brazil!
