Awesome work! An old time hot rodder I knew gave me a copper block for welding holes and showed me the process! Blew my mind! Excellent walk thru of your process (once again)! I am amazed by your wealth of knowledge, incredible skill, and how you share it all with us viewers! Go Japhands, keep moving forward!
Bud... I appreciate the time and effort you take to do your videos, the tine you take to explain what you do and why. A ppreciate all the ideas you have and share and also what you offer to your viewers and the community. You rock homie!! Keep 'em coming!!! 👍
Excellent video as always, simple explanations of what you're doing even though what you are doing takes a lot of skill. Love your enthusiasm for the work you do too.
Thanks for the tips and tricks. Question ... What kind of compressor do you run to keep your air tools running without having to wait for the compressor to keep up?
One tool seems to be missing. To make changes on firewalls in situ, you'd need a similar tool that removes existing beads. Halfass Customs could use one on the Studamino firewall he's working on.
K&E; Your kit could include logos, numbers and letters too. Of course we could do it too; like a Mercury tail gate for your favorite Ford pick up. v/r wh
Another great video "class" Karl. Im really looking forward to doing some of the flow forming, it just seems like a huge return on investment! Keep them coming! Oh yea, one more thing... Two words... More Baby Buick! Ok thats three! Lol
Tacking with tig pulls the sheetmetal excessively more than tacking with mig due to the ridiculous amount of heat tig puts out. But it is more work to planish the mig tacking because you have to grind off the wire deposition because you don't want to planish mig welds 😂
@@bruceaskin9645 it's also probably easier to grind away any welds if they aren't right in a tight corner. I remember watching a video with an old English guy doing some body work, and one piece of advice he had was to form your panels so that you weld on flat areas, as it's easier to grind down on a flat than a concave area.

Excellent Karl! People in general have no idea the amount of work that goes into custom work on cars. Great video as always.
Thank you.
You can take a piece of copper tubing and crush the end in the vise, the tune it on the welding table - to make the copper spoon
Amazing timing - I have a bunch of small holes to mig up in some panels. Never done it before, will give it a go with the copper backing!
Karl you are a true Master of your craft.....Thank You
I made my copper backer from a salvaged piece of 1 inch copper pipe, hammered it flat ,,, works fantastic and it was free from a local plumber
I see that princess auto English wheel in the back, I’d love a video on getting it tuned up or modified to get its best out of it! Love the videos

Good welding tip .Great work.
Karl, you're a wonderful teacher! Keep up the great work!
Interesting, Bret and you building a firewall and dist cove this week. The contrast of style is great.
Aluminium works also great as a backer, 4 weld closing holes..
Nice firewall !!!
Enjoy watching you explain a do metal work
Brilliant video as always Karl very interesting and informative keep up the amazing work buddy ❤
Another great video. The copper backing trick is excellent. Can’t wait to start flow forming!
Thank you!!
I got my welding backers made of brass and it work great too! ☕️😁👍
Excellent video as always, simple explanations of what you're doing even though what you are doing takes a lot of skill.
Love your enthusiasm for the work you do too.
Good comments and instruction on spot welding and "relaxing" the metal after. Learned a lot today.
Beautiful work
Man you do some nice work. Thanks for the explanations along the way.
Once again a fantastic job Carl!
I find all of this fascinating, wish I was younger to start on it. Thanks.
If your bending awkwardly to sight lines on the bead roller you could tilt the machine 30 degrees so you can stand up straight
Butane torch and solder. No warpage no weirdness. Build it up grind it down sand it with a Da. Glazing prime when you're ready
Great video thanks Karl.
I always learn something from your videos. You do really nice work.
Awesome video. Iam using a lot of what I learned from you doing the firewall on my next few patches for my 46 Ford truck.
Great job looks excellent, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thankyou
Nicest firewall I've ever seen

well done sir
Karl, a lot of us still don't have tig, so a combination of the two would continue to help us all I think, Joe
Maybe You need a Kustom Bar Stool for the tipping at the bead roller?
I use a replacement copper head for a copper/hide hammer
Amazing work as always she appreciate all your videos
Hey Another great video. I use a brass bushing from a log truck. Works killer
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your instruction
Really some great work it looks so neat 🇿🇦
Really nice work. Great tips and advise. Be safe and stay well.
I used a copper plumbing pipe with the end flattened.
Thanks Karl.... Happy holidays to you and yours.
Awesomesauce!
Great work mate. What’s the biggest holes you could weld up with the copper pad technique?
Old welder I once worked with said "if you can walk through it I can fill it". I don't think he was lying but he sure reeked of booze.
Thanks for the tips and tricks.
Question ... What kind of compressor do you run to keep your air tools running without having to wait for the compressor to keep up?
it's a kind of magic :)
Great set of videos Carl 👍
Thanks for sharing
Making it look easy 😂😂

It was known as Metal Embossing in my day, i still have a forms for the names Willys and Chev, don't tell them though ..

More Baby Buick!
Ok thats three! Lol
couldn't you also use old brake discs to create your own plates? Cut em up and reweld them together?
I imagine disc brakes are primarily cast. They might be pretty tricky to weld.
@@rcjbvermilion Oh yes, you're right.
You should link up with cj race cars and show some tricks to ol troy and the rest of the guys
Video starts at 15:48.
Tacking with tig pulls the sheetmetal excessively more than tacking with mig due to the ridiculous amount of heat tig puts out. But it is more work to planish the mig tacking because you have to grind off the wire deposition because you don't want to planish mig welds 😂
Kinda seems like you should have welded the hole closed upside-down
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Why put a flange on the domed piece? I don't understand the need for it when you welded it in?
Is it because it easier to finish?
Nice Video. Hope that you have a Great Thanksgiving.

Question ??? Why did you bother to create a flange, instead of just welding the cup straight onto the firewall at the corner.
This is so I can stretch the weld back out to control warping
@@MakeItKustom Thanks for that

Why don't you have a phone number so customers can order products. Sent emails and never heard back from you 😒
Got the newsletter for tools and dies in the shop, everything looking awesome sir. Thank you for helping teach us noobs 🫡
