    Part 2 is pretty intense. That chop is crazy and incredibly labor intensive for sure.

    Brain you have a gift,when it comes to metal. And Stephen did a great job filming the build without saying a word or drama. PRICELESS!

    Thanks for shairing the videos with us. I think I and a lot of other picked up years worth of tips from the first two and can't wait for the next one.

    The attention to detail on the chassis is outstanding.

    Brian, from what I see in the video, (finely ground up chips), you are spending way too much time sawing holes. I had noticed that at the start of a hole, the saw would spit out chips just like a band saw, then start grinding the steel into dust and the rate of cut would go down the crapper. I started using this trick that saves big bunches of time:

    Drill a 3/8" (or so) hole in the waste piece, with it partially in the saw kerf. This will allow the chips to fall through and the saw will zip through steel just like a band saw. On larger holes, drill two holes.

    Oh, great looking car and thanks for the video!

    Bill
     
  21. Yes, this works well. I do a series of small holes in the kerf.
     
  22. Sweet. I'm ready for part 3.

    If you could pick a build that best showcases your abilities, would the wade coupe be it?

    Or do you feel you get 'better' with each build?

    I've read each build thread you have and see similarities in your thought process and technique, but each are so different too; they are all so fucking rad!

    Please keep inspiring.

    Like everyone else says Brian, thanks for sharing your talent with us. How big is your shop? p.s. you should get those frame rivet plates mass produced and sell em. Peter
