On this channel you'll see mostly "How To" videos that has to do with Auto Body repair and me making my own tools for the job. I am always on a look out for a good deal on a car that needs some TLC, mostly with body damage. I'll show you the process that I go through start to finish (that includes, the tare down, frame pull if necessary, metal work, body filler work and of course paint) to bring the car back to pristine condition, so it's look and drive as it did before the accident. I love sharing the knowledge that I've acquired over the years. Hopefully you'll find my videos to be entertaining and maybe even learn a thing or two.
Cheers

✅Rebuilding this Totaled SUV with a Laser Like Precision
In this video I will demonstrate the use of the laser to get all of the replacement panels on this totaled Mazda CX-5 to line up just as they were before the accident. Most people don't know that you can use just about any self leveling laser to measure out the damage on the vehicle down to a millimeter. It's actually really simple and in this video I'll show you how I do it. This technic can be used to line up suspension, frame and and just about any panel on any car, truck or an SUV. Knowing this is a must for anyone that wants to learn auto body.

How to get vehicle measurements data online
You CAn drive a brush inside a tank : just pout some stainless steel wool inside before rolling it on the bbq. The steel wool will be easy to pull out through the lower plug.
Why did I just discovered your channel now? I should be watching you a long time ago. Dude. I love what you do. I will watch all your video. Thank you.
I am close to seattle, have a 2004 tahoe my son drives. The odometer and gear selector quite today. I assume its the chip you changed out in the video, where dontou buy this chip and what is it called?
I wouldn't recommend that weird copper flex line. Soft copper tubing and AN fittings are the usual way to do this. Otherwise, nice build.
What kind of auto drain do you use on the bottom of the coil? I’ve been wanting to build this same concept but haven’t found an auto purge or valve yet
I have a question. I did all my steppers, reflow prndl resistor and surrounding 6, upgraded to led bulbs 5 years ago including the 6v bulbs in the climate control. 3 years ago I changed the headlight switch because the backlight would go out but if I scrolled the dimmer it would come back on. Recently the backlight in the cluster dims to almost nothing but the climate control stays bright. If it’s 100 degrees out with the windows up, later that night it’s working properly. Until it’s running for a while and warms up a little from the bulbs and it goes dim again. I’m know I’m going to have to most likely reflow the whole board, but I was just wondering if you knew where to look first to diag in case I don’t find it visually with the microscope. I like to have that 100% diag every time or I feel like cheating if I just “do everything” and it’s fixed. I can’t find any kind of diagram through Mitchell or all data pro on what does what pertaining the cluster itself.
It would be interesting to download the link to the program that has the measurements of the car's body or where to buy it, or a dedicated video on how to do this process for your followers...
Nice.
I love Ooredoo mechanic job thank you🙏
I have learnd more from this one video then other videos on youtube, Make more videos please!
I just got this video recommended. Wanted to complement you @fix206 on using a liquid for pressure testing your tank. It was nice to see someone who knows how to safely test pressure vessels. For people who don't know. when pressure testing tanks, coils, etc, you usually will use a liquid (water or an oil) due to the incompressibility of the liquid. In the event of a rupture, the pressure will drop immediately leading to more of a leak than an explosion as long as you have removed all the gasses (through either drawing a vacuum first, or completely displacing it with the liquid prior to pressurization).
I got lucky and found the pump on clearance during a liquidation sale. It only cost me $60! Building this myself taught me a lot about plumbing. Since I didn't have 240v power at the time, I modified an 11hp snow blower motor and used the same pressure vessel. The unloader valve was surprisingly the most expensive part. Awesome video!😊
Seriously Dude , spend the extra money and buy a compressor that's brand new,, OMG whata ton of work, nightmare, however an entertaining video
Would you mind, making a parts list if updated avaliable parts and where to get them, the part im tryn to figure out is how the pressure release on the top part releases then the bottom releases..what are those two parts you used and how did you control the timing so the bottom goes off after the top..you did a damn fine job on this very impressed. 😊
Seems odd there was no drain valve on the bottom. Tanks should be drained daily to eliminate condensation.
Of course there is a drain at the bottom of the tank, every compressor comes with one including this one. I do open it up every now and then but since I pre-dry the air before it enters a tank no moisture ever comes out of that valve.
@@fix206 I must have missed it. Mine is where that big plug is.
Resourceful
Thank you !!
I Love The attention to detail I just subscribed!!
Thanks for the sub! And welcome aboard !!
nibs for day excellet job
My odometer is much dimmer than that in the video. PRND321 is fine just the odometer is dim.. Where is the resister that controls the odometer power?
it stil doesnt show alot.you just showed a transformer build
That was an older video, I've made an updated video later where I went into great detail on the build. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/j6UgtCN5vzU/видео.html
@@fix206 thanks i saw the build i would just like to know if it is nescasary for the timer relay seeing you have a push button on the puller.cant you just controle the time on the trigger.
Push button is the trigger
Many people left comments including myself asking for an explanation as well as a parts list for the water after cooler in this video. This would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
the two main parts of an aftercoler would be the copper coil and an automatic drain valve. I have links to both of them in the video description.
Fix206: Could you please provide and itemized parts list for the fittings you used for the water after cooler? Also not sure about the plastic tubing you have shown with the water after cooler. Thanks in advance.
the two main parts of an aftercoler would be the copper coil and an automatic drain valve. I have links to both of them in the video description.
Please tell me more about the valve at the bottom of the copper cooling coil or just attach a link to where I can buy one. That is brilliant. I have never seen one before. I'm gathering my parts to build this. Thank you for the video I will use you links to make any purchases.
Here is the link to the valve: ebay.us/ZKD9zr
@@fix206 God bless brother and thank you so much.
Jimmie, you are very welcome !!
what are the specs on the electric motor though? If i buy a like new tank off fb marketplace and the pulley on harbor freight, what elecric motor to use on the other side and where to find the correct one
You should match up the motor to the pump that you'll be using... If pump is calling for a 5hp motor then that's what you have to go with. You won't find the motor pulley at the harbor freight, you'll have to get it online, there a link to it in my video description. You may have to look for a motor online also
Why have the copper pipe to cool the air if you have an air/water filter in-line?
Air/water separator will not cool the air but allow a hot air to pass through into the tank where as the air cools the water will condense. Therefore you have to cool the air first before it gets to the separator.
Didn’t he have car insurance?
He purchased this Rolls Royce from insurance company as a total loss vehicle... And I fixed it for him...
@@fix206 looks great.
Thank you !!
"For safety I moved the tank to the far end of my yard...putting it 10 feet away from my neighbors house" LOL
In reality I just moved the tank to the end of my property because I did not want to dump 60 gallons of water next to my house or even in the middle of the yard
@@fix206 That was more a Joke than a serious comment.
Oh gotcha... No worries...
I'm 78 years old 50 or 60 years ago we had 25 or 30 shackles and d-rings when a couple of come along and a bunch of chains did the same thing no laser took a little more time
cars are built a lot more precisely these days then they were 50-60 years ago. Generally you can get away with a lot more whenever you're working on an old vehicle rather than a new one.
Cam back 😢
Totally awesome! Very creative in solving improvements to a refined air compressor.
Thank you very much!
That's badass ingenuity. Well done.
Thank you very much!
These construction laser levels have so many great applications outside of construction 👍
I agree 100% !
I can't get the timed side (for shrinking) of the toggle switch to activate the transformers.
I'm not sure what the issue is, maybe try using another timer relay?
I was actually paying attention that is until two words came out your mouth. That's when I knew your were full of shit. Harbor Freight is like ordering from Amazon pieces of shit that breaks on the first day or first time even using the item. Yeah I agree with there is a lot of dumb muthafuckas out there that do not belong no near any tool not even a philips screwdriver. Only decent item to ever turn out worth buying was their heat shrink
Don't know what to tell you, my compressor has been running strong for over two years without a hiccup. Had plenty of other people comment on the fact that they are running the same pump from Harbor freight on the air compressors with great results... I'm not out here to trick or deceive anyone. Just sharing my experiences...
What mechanism did you use in the bottom of the bucket to release the water?thanks
It's an Automatic Drain Valve, here is a link to it if you're interested ebay.us/ZKD9zr
👍🏼
👍👍
"Protect all cars".... Then the knob starts painting right in front of uncovered cars.... geez.
Did you watch the entire video? I did mention why the car was uncovered...
@@fix206 I know, it was sarcasm.
are you still repairing 2004 chevy instrument clusters? Mine is intermittent
What exactly is going on with it?
Huh. My mother in law left a pretty sizeable oxygen tank here when she moved out. I should do something fun with it.
Any suggestions on the electric motor? I have an air tank that never had a pump or motor and want to build a compressor.
I have a 2014 Mustang GT that could use this type of love if you’d be interested.
I am running into an issue where I can not control the trip set and also scroll to odometer reading. My buttons on steering wheel are not controlling the cluster. They stopped working. Wondering if you may have a fix.
The tank itself should still have a drain on the bottom. If you think your not going to get any moisture in the tank , your dreaming. And what happens when it rains???
Of course all tanks have a drain in the bottom and I periodically open up the drain, but no moisture ever comes out of there... And what is your question about the rain?
You can level up by adding a Vaisala drycap sensor in order to monitor small changes of water partial presseure ob the exit. Ypu will probably see corrolation between cooling water temp and ppm H2O in the compressed air.
Hi sir can you send me the body dimension of mazda3 2010 sedan please
the cage for the cooling coil will cause galvanic corrosion. aluminum and copper cant be touching like that even worse in water.
Incredible
good job
Thank you! Cheers!
