OMG! That is EXACTLY what I was thinking.
Hey, it ain’t perfect, it’s functional!
He breaks about every major rule I have seen, and TRY to avoid:
No gloves/ protective gear
Not cleaning to bare metal
Welding directly over primer
Etc
But yet, it works! I tip my cap to him. I am at peace.... _________________ China Clippers Official 1971 Super Beetle Project!

I am all for saving work etc etc BUT the way he advertises his videos make newbs searching on youtube think this is how quality fabrication/restoration is or should be done. |

I was looking at the dogleg, and wondering how he's going to put a seal in that 1/4" space up the arch. He just seems to half-ass everything for the sake of time. |

yes, i use to watch his vids until he posted his "bullet proof engine build" video talking about how one should build one. i cringes so hard and decided to just stop wasting my life watching the 40 minutes of unedited videos. some sttuff he says is good, just not enough. |
