doublewide6 Repairs LLC Clear, concise, Well Done!!!
great process
Hey man, I don't usually comment on these homemade DIY videos but I wanted to let you know you did a great job. Not only were your instructions simple and concise, but you spoke really well. Nothing annoys me more than people who um & um through these and waste time trying to search their minds for what they want to say. Thanks
Yes a great video, this is a good example of what we in the Army called “field expediency”, we found ourselves making things work with a minimum of tools or material and repair parts. Keep up the great work!
...and in the non-military world we call it "MacGyvering"... lol :D
Thanks, Dude! A year since the last comment and you're still helping people!
Good idea, great job executing it. It is nice to see how sometimes one man sees it differently than another and comes up with a solution with things on hand. Keep up the fixing, I need ideas, all my stuff is falling apart and I ran out of duct tape and bailing twine!
Great fix...You really are creative in repair methods!!!...I have owned an exhaust shop for years and love making stuff like this....but I have to say this is genius!!!
Don't you just love how this stuff is engineered sometimes? Another nice tip from you. Thanks!
+1crazynordlander Yes the manufacture the fastest and cheapest they can.
Great job. I've been doing this kind of plastic repair for many years. Just one thing to add - if you don't get the metal piece in far enough before it cools, you can press it in further with a soldering gun as it heats it up again.
Saving the wallet, mind and the planet one smart repair at a time! Keep em coming, plastic trims and body work are especially hard to fix and, for some strange reason hmm, expensive..
Great tip Thank's, everybody throws away plastic things these days because of problems like this , because it's plastic and it break's they think it's broken or ruined, I have made one or two things like brackets just with a heat gun wish people were more aware of this !!! have a nice day Brian UK .
Nice work man. Wish I had seen this years ago when I was working on a bunch of quads.
Nice idea, thabks for sharing it, mechanic here from the philippines
Brilliant work, mate. Would never have thought of that.
Thanks for good tip on how to fix very common and extremely annoying problem.
Question; what is advantage with aluminum wire? I would have guessed it would be music/piano wire.
Cool repair . Likely stronger than the original !
you're a genius and I'm not being sarcastic great video thank you
+gene hensley Thanks too bad my SAT's did not reflect that.
Good tip. If you need more strength I have found roughing it up on the inside with sandpaper and using fiberglass cloth with one of the marine two part epoxies (I happened to use West System) does the trick. You can build it up as thick as necessary. I did the fan shroud on my truck six or seven years ago with a couple of layers of cloth (chop strand matt actually is even stronger and tends to give a tapered edge where important). Even in the hot environment it is still as good as new. It would be u/v sensitive so a protective top layer of paint would be needed if out in the sun. Now if there were a way to repair those little spring tabs on plastic electrical connectors on cars etc.!! Made to fail. Take care. Doug
very interesting method... broken plastic tabs are one of the most frustrating problems DIY's face
What else
Nice job
Awesome repair job so much better than replacing plastic it's expensive Suzuki motorcycle one of the quarter panels how to crack we had a plastic weld it from behind then we paint it
Is that a Charles Parker & Co vise? I have a very old vise that looks identical to some of the C Parker Co vise's but mine is unbranded
fencing pliers, claw hammer, and a propane torch to fix plastic.
Awesome
Thanks, been doing this but using Epoxy to hold the wire in, you just saved me some $$
Strong work
Good presentation, DW-6. Perhaps we could just use a pair of pliers for holding the hot wire. So many items we have break and we just throw it away without trying to repair it - saving time and dollars. Some items are made to break [such as plastic connectors, etc.]. [Thanks for holding back on wild music or almost speaking English.] Waiting for your next video.
Thankyou ,this helped me out..great video and very clear explanation..cheers from New Zealand
Hi I have a question, I made the mistake of putting a side cover in the oven to quick dry the paint and turned it too high so it sagged a bit. I know real bonehead move. Side panels are hard to come by due the age of my bike so I intend to do it again and form it back into shape but have no clue what temp I should use. can you shed some light on this?
Saves trying to plastic weld and it's a strong repair. I'll have to remember this one.
Cheers
Martin
+retrorestore Hope it can help you out thanks for your input. Your the best magnet fisherman I've ever seen:)
doublewide6
Haha, I've only caught a cold lol.
Cheers
Martin
retrorestore only problem is aluminum does not glow orange when heated. The wire was steel not aluminum
Very clever. Thanks for sharing!
genius idea actually
It's probably stronger than the original. Looks good.
Good video, but I was looking for a fix on my tail light asm. both attaching point are broken off, not sure how or why?
Brilliant thanks! I'll definitely put this to good use!
Im thinking I can maybe do something like this to fix the broken tab on my fridge door shelf
Extreme smart idea, I salute you, Sir.
Everyone on my can am ds250 are like this😂 for years is been like that. Bought it like that actually with hopes of fixing it. Damn near 10years later here we are
slick fix! that pliers is a fencing pliers but I'm bettin you know that
Real nice!!! I love McGyver people , why buy when you can improvise .
Thanks dw6 for this trick. Good life.
That was a handy bit of information ! Thanks for sharing ...
Good idea!
Now that is a very handy and super great fix man .. Thumbs up !!
+ShawnMrFixitlee Always there and always a thumbs up! Thanks
Nice idea thanks for taking the trouble to share it with us.
Good idea thanks
I`v been using that torch since I can`t remember when. Say`s it first available 2005. Thought I was using it longer than that. But good trick.
Nice tip.
You gotta like a man who's smarter than his tools!
+A LeBlanc Yeah you have to know how to use your tools. I don't know how Mattis Wandal figures out his settings for his pantorouter. If I had one of those things I would need my wife to calculate the settings for me, and besides she has been band from my shop for over a year now:)
Wow - I tried rebuilding my tabs out of epoxy, but they failed after a couple months, can't wait to try this...
Report back how it works for you.
Thanks double wide!
thanks man. I like your video.
Kasaini Schaaf jj o. Jj)kzbzinka
Good video. U r a 1 smart man.,,,,You really enjoy what u do. Thanks
+skirtdevil Thank you. I do enjoy my projects.
Thank you for sharing the idea.
Great idea. Could save a lot of bucks.
Who the hell would even "thumbs down" this video!?
Great! Very useful video
thanks i have enjoyed your sample step totally awesome
nice job sir, very creative.
use cigarette lighter or bring it inside your house kitchen and use the flame to heat the clip you don't need buy any torch , trust me it works that little clips easy to heat up , i'm a welder and i know that for sure .
Aluminium melts if it is red hot (Al mpt=660 deg. C red-hot iron=800 deg. C). I know that from experience and from Google to back me up.
Nice solution to a problem!
+Curiosity Thanks you. You always take the time to comment and that is wheat you need to get your video seen.
Thanks dude you really helped me out 💪
Good work.
Just wish we didn't have to fix so much plastic. Great idea for fixing busted tabs.
+Mac Fisher I run into broken tabs all the time usually I just leave one or two broken and attach the rest.
very smart idea...well done video too..thx for posting
+MrCoolerdave You are welcome I'm happy you enjoyed people.
Great idea! Thanks!
Ingenious... thx for posting.
20 seconds in "Not so fast".. priceless! .. my own impression is that if you are going to use heat then you probably only have to drill the hole less than 1/2 the diameter of the aluminum wire.
Cool hack
Nice trick, good job
Very cool work
Genius! Thanks.
thanks for the info
Very good.
Thank you.
Great info. Thanks for sharing.
Smart idea. I have some options now
Pretty clever imagineering.
You didn't show the repair of the black tab in first image - how can I fix tabs that bolt down please?
Same thing - you use a bent or curved rod that the bolt can capture. Might want to add a washer.
I would drill two holes in the plastic and make a U shaped rod; bend the rod around the bolt first so it's the right size, then mark where the holes have to go, and so on.
Superb
great idea man ,thanks
that IS a good fixup
Great idea.
Yep. Good idea, like it
excellent. thanks.
Great job bro !!
Wow, nice job man! Hey what kind of nozzle is that on that propane tank and where did you get it?
It's a harbor freight torch head. I recommend getting a better one though
+Ian Porter oh ok cool thanks a lot man. Well see i have a few of the propane and map gas one's from Benzomatic but none of them get the metal orange but that's ok I love Harbor freight for some tools i will check it out. Thanks again!
+jaybizz No problem! You do have a good point, it heats things up real quick
+Ian Porter
Yez zir, I gotta get me one! =)
+jaybizz The torch I'm using is from Harbor freight. It gets really hot because it broke and I fixed it by removing the jet inside. I would not recommend doing that and I only use that torch in my garage not in my house to light my pellet stove. Anyhow, I like the benzomatic one that I have listed on the link, we had them at work and they worked well for soldering candle holders that the kids were making. Thanks
exelent job Sir. 😎👍🔥
Great idea. cheers rob
Nice. Mike.
Good job, Dude!!
really innovative. good effort
+ringo rajpal Thanks
Cool.
Thanks ,I know I will use this
hey dude, aluminum melts at a lower temperature than the temperature stuff turns orange at. Even welding aluminum, there is no orange. Your wire is steel, likely stainless, which is a better choice than aluminum anyway. Aluminum wire would be about ready to snap off after bending it like that
Great idea. Thanks
+anhtuanvidi Thanks
Very clever!
+paulsjunkcars Thanks, I'm happy you enjoyed it!
technically, coulldnt you avoid the drilling? i mean, if you heat up the clip, it will melt through the plastic anyway.
good idea
+Ozzstar Thanks I this this tip will help tons of people. Sometimes you have to think outside the box.
Why not use steel music wire? Much stronger.
Brilliant
Great tip!!!!
+2LateIWon Thanks Comments and thumbs up help the video preform.
+doublewide6. thought i already had but did for sure now
Very cleaver! Seems like a great fix.
+MidwestMotoRider Thanks.
It would’ve been nice to actually see that it worked by placing it on your ATV is showing v
