I tried this technique and it works great! Just be sure your socket fits tightly on the extension. You don't want a red hot socket slipping off the extension and landing on your new carpet. Ask me how I know!

Good job! An old soldiering iron works too! Always hot and ready to burn right through the carpet when warmed up.

Use a soldering iron, makes perfect size hole , no flame, no nail , no hot extension or socket to hold. Perfect size, place in holder when not in use.

Gonna be installing new carpet in my 1966 chevelle, this definitely is a much better idea then cutting a X and getting fluff and stuff everywhere! Eager to try this

Electrical Metal Tubing (EMT), makes a very good burner. Use pieces about a foot long and wrap one end with a good rag.

Thanks for the great video and how too. I am doing the exact same job on a Chevelle and wondered the best way to make seat bolt holes with out fraying the carpet.

How did it go?

@denisebarragan9993 6 ай бұрын

Can I ask where the carpet is from? Or if there’s a specific company you recommend that does custom carpets for a car

What I got to know is why is your propane bottle the same color as a fire extinguisher?

@nicwaymire Жыл бұрын

It's oxygen not propane

@rockspoon6528 10 ай бұрын

@@nicwaymire That is most definitely propane and not oxygen. He even calls it propane multiple times in the video.
