Nice job but try editing it so you don't repeat yourself so much, hope your car turns out great and keep up the good work. I have same welder and I think my current dial is busted, does yours spin freely? Mine does which potentiometers usually don't do that as far as I know.. so might just need to replace it which I can do but it's just a pain to get at the dial on this machine.

my old 04 CL55 had a pascal engine

Good video, it's always nice to see people venting fumes for ASA/ABS as it's not the safest thing to be breathing in haha.

I too was using ASA to print car parts. But in my journey I learned a few things. 1.) Polymaker, and probably all hobby grades and materials are quite flammable. I did a few tests and there is no flame retardation or arresting. It likes to burn and pick up speed. 2.) It does not do well with fuel. It turns to a rubber gel. I learned this because I spilled gas on an old scrap part(total coincidence) and then went to pick it up about an hour later and it squished in my fingers. Point is, its probably not an issue for what your are doing, but its a good fyi- parts exposed to gas fumes, or maybe dripping oil etc. could lose rigidity and fail. For me, it was a good reminder that there is a difference between hobby and engineered grade materials. Anyway, nice enclosure. Using an wire shelf is a clever idea.

Solid. Love it man.

My lord 💪👊

Only question is what is the duty rating of the fan? Most of those fart fans can only be rated to run for an hour at a time…..

need some control arms too

What grit sandpaper did you use?

Hello, I'm from Poland and I'm building your vehicle. I'll probably finish it in mid-February. If you would like to see the end result, please provide your social media so that I can contact you ;]

I don’t often comment on videos, but this one was particularly helpful. I just ordered a carbon fiber steering wheel from Overtakeauto for my 2004 C5 Corvette. Following the steps in this video made for an easy project and I was done in just over an hour start to finish. I did NOT need to use WD-40 on the splines as the wheel came right off with the puller I rented from O’Reillys. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make and post this video!

FYI...C&S Corvette in Sarasota FL...look for their video on batteries. Lyle talks about this very thing...the different batteries that you'll look at and depending on where you live i.e. very hot climate like down south..stay away from certain batteries like AGM..they're expensive and great but don't do well at ALL in hot weather.

did everything you did and mine would not come off, the steering wheel removal tool stripped its threads from tightening it so much. saw a comment about using a cigar torch lighter, might try that

FWIW I have mine routed through the gill so I can trickle charge mine without the hood popped open and it's easier to access. It's a bit of work to get it setup but great for those wanting a clean look.

I have had no problem, but I went to a Diehard AGM battery two years ago. And if tray needs cleaned, simply remove it first.

@11:30 remember no matter how good we do in life, people will always have something negative to find about you regardless of how bad/well you are doing so what i like to say...f 'em. You keep doing you and nice video btw. nothing wrong with a clean tool box. That just means you are organized and clean.

Nice video, bud! I’m sure glad I got the AGM battery a few years ago, just had to install the LMC5 though, , and OEM shocks, deleting the mag ride F 55. , but I do wanna keep mine, I got a 2004

I there What oil should I run then if I live in Norway? Our climate is very different. In the summer it can be 25 Celsius and in the evening it will be around 12-17 Celsius. In the springtime it’s around 10-15 I drive a E55 AMG M113K. What oil do you guys recommend? Thanks in advance 😊

Thanks for that! Great work!

Bro pro tip...Just use a cigar flame lighter or a lighter torch. When I replace these I just heat it for maybe 30 seconds the metal expands and then cools and it comes off easily. Great video.

The organization of your toolbox makes my brain happy.

I have a question. When is a good time to use 12 pt sockets? From what i understand the strip bolts so why use them?

Pittsburgh pro s ockets the last time i checked are also made in taiwan.

Cool idea. I moved away from the Phoenix area a couple years ago unfortunately. Now I have to put it away this time of year. I did place an order with you for them. Thanks 😎👍

For your socket organizers, one hack you could do is maybe drill a hole on each side of the organizer in the middle of them, then use a zip tie to hold it down so it's more secure. Not the best solution but I can see how that would get very annoying!

Thank you for filming this process. It helped a lot

The viper won any moment

Asa is also printed best with a heated enclosure, you need a consistent temperature. This is especially true when doing long prints.

Whats the exhaust?

I use a tender all winter (and anytime I'm not driving it) and never thought about running a spacer like that. Very cool idea.

AGM batteries can leak or seep, I had a older battery charger that was not going into trickle mode and it caused my 2 year old Optima to seep out of the vent holes on the side while charging my c5,Check your charger as well.

I just bought the Creality K2 Plus. Seems like they waited just in time for Bamboo to release this and improved on it. Bamboo will most likely release an updated model to compete. Thanks for the vid!!!

Good video but please try to keep things short. The internet is suddenly full of guys doing documentaries on their experiences.

Great video! And I think you are right, this printer opens up 3d printing to the masses. I would have never messed with 3d printing before a device like this was available. I dont care about the "art" of 3d printing, I am just excited about the utility of it, as a tool!

Why are you testing the Auxiliary battery?? Why not the main battery in the trunk?? I thought the Auxiliary battery only did extra things like the electronic brake system and is seperate from the main cable?

08243 3m smc repair can’t be painted over or body filler over it’s made for back side repairs with fiberglass over the top if I’m remembering it I use lord fuzor ez100 it’s a oem compliant for bonding and fixing voids and cracks

Blinker dead

You’re making me motion sick. Nice organization in the box

trust me, i know its fun but 90% of those 3-4 shifts were not required. Number 1 thing i learned in racing school is don't make more inputs to the car than are absolutely required. This includes shifting. If you're holding it at 5k RPM, then hold it there, it won't hurt the car.

I kept this drive pretty conservative as this was my first time taking this car out on this road, so I definitely wanted to get a feel for the car on this road before I decided to "open it up" a bit more. Next time, if I don't get stuck behind so many cars, I'll let the car rip a little more :)

Can definitely appreciate the experience learned by doing this work yourself…. But dang you could have gotten a used bumper in perfect condition for far less than you have in all those 3M repair products!

Thanks for the information. This will come in handy when I finally get around to fixing up my 26 year old C5.

That was one of the problems that I was concerned about so I put a acid Matt. underneath the battery I did not see any problems with the battery putting an acid matt underneath the battery just a precaution

If you're not going to be moving them, you could epoxy those plastic socket rails down to the MDF base to keep them from flexing.

Appreciate your great & golden advice! Do you remember how heavy the C55 valve body was? I try to know if it's doable by one person. Thank you !

what number should I use to seal a crack in a door?

You really like your sockets😂

I have a C5 corvette 2003 model. The car is not driven much during the year so at times when it's not driven, the battery drains out quickly. I was told by a mechanic to install a circuit breaker for battery so whenever I want to drive, all I have to do is switch on the button for the breaker which would be installed connected to the battery so the power comes on in the car. When I am not driving, I would just have to switch off the circuit breaker button so the power switches off in the car. Please advise on this as I am new to this. Would appreciate your feedback.
