@nedanother9382 Рік тому

Umm...it's this kind of old (I'm old) thinking that has me spinning....I'm trying to get away from even the ridiculous word perfection...its completely subjective, unachievable and absolutely gets in the way of whats important....far more important than the myth of "perfect craftsmanship"...it's finishing. You have to finish. Use the wrong words for a person like myself and you end up with a lifetime of potential and a garage full of "perfect projects" that couldn't meet the criteria and were never finished. Just piled up regrets for even the inspiration to start them. I now make the commitment to finish what I start whatever the final outcome. Further, because I suck, I also have to commit to finishing them ON TIME. That daggone word causes lateness that causes a bad taste for the end user regardless of the finish..."I needed it then, not now"...because I was chasing a ghost for two extra months. Thank god for youtube and generous artists to help work out these kinks. Cheers

@jmackinjersey1 2 роки тому

Yeah, I went through years of school and OJT and got a degree in paint/fender/body, and when I would ask about PDR, a lot of the guys would scoff and say it was fine for small dents, or maybe after hail storms. They'd all want to remove/replace fenders, cut/weld/fill/sand/paint QP/SP and door skins. I'd ask them why they don't try to manipulate the dent and make at least reuse the original fenders etc. Most would say it was easier and faster to do it their way. I'd still hold on to the old parts and practice manipulating the metal, but if I had been able to see this channel when I was still working there and going to school, I think I would have been able to convince the instructor as well as the owner of the body shop I was working at to train me on it. I'm not knocking the other way at all and understand that in certain instances it is definitely needed. However, an alternative is always nice to have.

First time on your channel and enjoyed watching the master at work. I did subscribe and liked. I look forward to watching your next video.

I've been a Body Technician for over 10 years. I would have never guessed something like this was even possible. Ive never seen your videos before. But I am definitely going to watch more.

This is an art form. You teach a 1,000 students. You’d be lucky to get one who could come close to this

Incredible work. I am working on an old Mini Cooper so replacing a panel would require finding a donor and then cutting and welding. But your video has given me a bunch of ideas to try with a block of wood and a come a long! Thank you. I’m your newest fan and subscriber

The most amazing part to me is the paint, it's flexibility. The fact of seeing the paint "stretched" to such a degree and then manipulated back, without a crack is incredible.
