F40 EVO // Improving the chassis and roll cage of an ICON!

We're finally onto fabrication! I'm stoked: this is what I've wanted for ages. It's a slow burn, but I hope you guys enjoy it. The F40 project is really going to start gaining momentum!

Easily the most exciting build on YT right now

[Jules_]

Can I say that I just love your meticulous approach to building?! It's so refreshing to see a build that isn't all about making it to SEMA in some stupid time frame.

[Jeffball]

20min of video to bend one tube. This is the detail that is needed and the reality of building cars. I think most of us have a distorted perspective on how long it takes to build something because of video. This is what your viewers want even if the general public won't watch a single episode.

Keep the notebook tidy, keep all the pages in the notebook. When the project is done, Get the pages published, that is some great one of a kind YouTube Merch actually worth buying.

A channel with less than 400k subs building a custom frame F40? That’s next-level. How is this channel not blowing up yet?! Criminally underrated. 🔥

[Disciple]

This channel is absolute gospel for amateur builders like me. He started talking about the bending protractor, and I heard Greek for the next 10 seconds, felt discouraged, then by this point I’m looking one up online because he explained it so well and I absolutely absorbed it.

Thanks bro 🤘🏼 11:17

I'm very much an aesthetics guy. The fact that you lined up that tubing between the panels and realized you wanted to move the bends upward and shorten the top just made me so happy. lol I noticed the sides and kinda thought the same thing: "Oh man, wouldn't it be nice if those went up just a bit more?" Then you did it!

I've only been subbed since last summer after YT kept recommending your channel to me. I'm glad I could be here to witness this incredible journey. Thank you!

[grassfedcontent]

As a machinist and a fabricator, I appreciate all your build series and I'm happy that you have been able to grow into this incredible project. 1 piece of advice for bends in tubing. It will save you time and effort if you use your bend protractor that you currently have to mock up on the car to figure out the degree you need to make for a particular piece. Buy a digital magnetic protractor to check your bends after they come out of the bender once you have calculated your spring-back. It will save you time on each bend and save a ton of time over the project. And save time on future projects as well.
Cheers,
Hope your project brings you joy and success

This channel is so genuine, when a project of this caliber is at hand, and you want everything to be oerfect, you'll spen days of work and it stacks up to a rollcage hoop.
This is why motivation is key, which is talked about many times on this channel.

[evanverschoore]

Bro you don't need to apologize for the project you're working on. You do what you want. The fact that you are so meticulous with it and how you want it to be as perfect in your eyes as possible just shows how it will end up. The end result of this thing is going to be amazing and I'm glad to watch every step of the way.

[Boz]

This is why you make the best builds on YouTube. Your attention to detail sets you out from the rest and takes your projects to the next level.

[robertw]

Your professionalism is just out of this world. That construction's gonna be around 10x better than original f40

[RogueViirus]

This is definitely a project that's worth getting perfect, using every tool in your arsenal. Not like you can't reuse lengths of the bad hoop elsewhere either to minimize waste. Glad you went into some depth on how to go about bending tube supper accurately, feels like we got a proxy shop class from Riley through you.

[Jake-vcgr]

The level of detail is just perfect for me. I’m an amateur builder, so time has taught me the basics, like in this case everything you said about measuring out the needed lengths made sense, it was just nice to see everything done correctly and gave me some pointers for my next time bending pipe. Also, you should do it yourself because you already invested in a pipe bender, might as well use it. Plus the knowledge from doing something yourself vs paying someone else has its own value too. Thanks guys.

1 episode for 1 tube, this is the reality of building a tube chassis. The setup, the alignment, the fixturing, and the first tube is easily dozens of hours to get perfect.

[bryanford]

Bro, stop placating the h8ters, we're here for your skills and vision! ...and loving every single tube of it!!

[rickh]

Superior craftsmanship Mike! If you ever get to a point that all you projects are stalled and you need a topic, I'd like to see a detailed episode on tube bending.

[dontron]

Most exciting car build I’ve ever seen. I love how you leave no stones unturned… even stones most people didn’t even realize existed.

[Bnm-fkfi]

In a past life I was an Instrument Fitter working for the local gas company and spent many many hours bending thick wall stainless pipes. It’s a lot harder than wr all think and I was blown away with the level of detail you go into the bending process and measuring etc. I wasted quite a few parts before getting the hang of it. A lot of satisfaction in looking at an intricate maze of pipes all lining up (nearly) perfectly 😀

[NuclearHeadshot]

Long episode for one hoop? Bro I was stunned 24 minutes had already passed and had to double check! I love the details, and how you explain the steps you take to build it right the first time. Great stuff
