Well my children start back to school tomorrow from their Christmas vacation. I figured I'd get the creative juices going early and start them off on the right foot today. Education should start an home anyway..

Anyone that knows me knows I like to share. I'm just not the person that would dump 3 days worth of video of guys walking around a car cutting and welding without at least trying to explain what is going on. With over 20 gig and 30 hours of video that is nearly impossible with my schedule. I did...

Dave Kinnaman from Kinnamans Kustom Kars invited me over to help section a 51 Pontiac for a Kustom build he is working on. After the days work was complete I made a video with instructional images and time lapse over a few hours. I thought you guys may like it. We are going to be putting a...

I put this on the other site, but wanted to make sure I shared it with you guys too.. Myself and a couple of other guys were at the Chicago Autorama helping Gene Winfield chop a 41 Ford Coupe top this weekend. While Gene and I was talking about a particular shape he drew a diagram of random...

I was told there is a lot of shape in this panel and it isn't an easy one to create. I feel they weren't kidding.. I still need to do some planishing and defining of the bottom brake , but overall I am happy with it. I have to say that I made the panel on the first try, but I changed my mind...

All 20 gauge steel. I will update as I progress..

I have a few panels that are going back to the earth from the inside out. I need to do a lot more dressing and a little shrinking on the insides, but here is the rough cut..

Here is my version of a popular reciprocating hammer documented on another website. It still needs cleaned up and painted, but I couldn't wait to use it. It works very well with a set of thumbnail dies and doming dies I also built.

Just throwing out something for your guys that are between projects and looking for something to keep you busy.. I am always looking to re-purpose old unused junk. I had an old metal patio table with the umbrella hole in it. I welded up the hole and smoothed it out and asked the little lady to...

It has been a while since I put any pictures of Shorty up. My buddy and I are taking if over to the shop for wiring and finishing up the rakes. Here is how he looks now. I still need to wrap up the grill shell I am making for it. The angle iron is to hold the hood in the correct spot while I...

I am trying to go a little more traditional on this one (to an extent), but thought you guys may still be interested..

I know there are a lot of great builders here. I just wanted to throw this up in case anyone was wanting any info on building your own panels. Here is a grill shell that I started the other night with the bare minimal of tools. I am putting a tech article on the website as I build it. It will be...

All, I put up a few pics and a video that may help you guys out. We have been making our own driveshafts and it is working out well. Make sure you get them straight with a dial indicator and have them balanced by a professional though. We put the info on out facebook page because I did not know...

Well guys a couple of people asked me to document this for them and I thought I would share it with you as well. Forgive me as I do not have the time to rewrite it for a post, but here is the link... They only cost me $35 to build. Check the link on the parts page for the build...

Here is a little rod that I am building for myself. Shorty is a .50 roller. I am just waiting on perches. You must remember this is still a mockup so no gusseting has been completed on the rear yet. I plan on sculpting the rear rails as well as gusseting them..

I just wanted to remind you guys that there is a lot of old tin out there still. My son and I look all over every time we are out on the road. We went on our weekly road trip last week and talked to this gentleman...
