Fabricating A Winch Bumper

Turn on subtitles or view the transcript at the bottom of the description for a walkthrough of what I'm doing.

Other videos on my F250:

Well, it's time to do more work on my 1983 F250. I've liked the look of winch bumpers, and winches are cool, so I put this thing together. A roll bar and some fog lights would complete the look I'm going for. I also did some general maintenance and proceeded to get myself stuck deep in the mud. More coming soon on that.

Film school? Art background? Just a natural? I mean, your filming is so excellent.

From one ailurophile to another, I love your kitty outros. My mother used to tell me, cats don't have owners, they have staff. So true :)

Simon actually repairs stuff, doesn't just replace for the sake of it, but actually makes the absolute most out of what he has.👌👍

This is one of my preferred YT channels now.

So happy I found this channel! No talking, all working, thoughtful production.

This guy has serious talent, this is what shop owners want. This is why I'd trust him with my own toys. Making your own bumper wtf, tough project to do let alone by yourself. Every week I wait for these videos, keep em coming!

The skill and video content is amazing in itself, but I don’t know if many people realize the editing and film making skill . Angles, edits, lighting, time stamps and sub text . The video production is also top notch . This kid gives me hope for our youth yet ..

Best videos on the internet a skilled mechanic w/o all the small talk and music life is good.

These are the breaks I need on a Sunday night.

[Baldskul]

I believe that even Mad Max would be proud of that bumper. Well done!

[seanilves]

Whoever you told you were going mudding was waiting for that phone call😂

[tvoprosucks]

this guy is a throwback to the 70's, love the style i miss those days
