The shower curtain would be awesome I'm thinking about building one right now.

Would love to see a prinsu type rack. Great instruction!!

Seen @SlimPotatohead build a wind deflector using an old $25 snowboard. Would be interesting on how you'd do a wind deflector for a roof rack.

Thanks Micah! I really appreciate the kind words!

Thank you!

This one is for you man! You are welcome!

Thanks for watching! That's what I want my channel to be about!

Thank you!! 🙏🙏

Thanks you! 🙏🙏

Nice! Did you follow this build or find it later?

@@PatrickRemington I saw yours and then just went into my garage and started it, nobody has made a video for a rav4 so I had to figure out a bunch of little issues but it works great now. I just painted it and threw it on for the final time, the gas can is still coming in the mail and I'm just gonna do my own thing for mounting it, ill probably just weld some brackets onto a rung and go from there.

Mine is a twoby 🤫

@@PatrickRemington haha, I won’t tell a soul! 😉

Thank you!

Thanks man! 🙏🙏

Haha, Get to it, man! Glad I could help!

It’d be nice, but i’m not sure it could be done on a budget. At that point just open the door, ya know?

Thank you!

Nice! I have a e-350 ambulance build hopefully coming soon to the channel. I also ride mtb at the Ridgeland trails and the quarry in Jackson/Madison ms. Saw some of your videos from there!

@@PatrickRemington Awesome! yea I noticed the TCMBA sticker! Looking forward to some E350 vids. Hope to start on mine soon!

Thank you!! 🙏🙏

Heck yeah! Do it!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thanks man!

Thank you!

My bends did match up perfectly. I also would have waisted some conduit learning how to get perfect bends and didn’t want to deal with that. But the bends would definitely look better that’s for sure

haha Thanks! Nah not yet. As long as I'm not not manufacturing and selling them as my own then I'm good! I was contacted by the owner of a Hammock Mount company from a recent video where i replicated their product but it was to thank me for giving them credit and he sent me a shirt and some koozies which was cool.

I would get a 110 flux core/mig welder. You don't need shield gas with flux core wire so it's cheaper and good to start with. Whenever you want to start MIG welding you can just buy a bottle of 75/25 shield gas. Flux core welding spatters and Sparks more it doesn't look quite as clean. Mig spatters less and looks cleaner. I would try to find something used first. Nothing too old tho. Welders have gotten so much better and cheaper in the last few years. Lincoln electric, Hobart, Vulcan (harbor freight) are all good choices for anyone. Watch some review videos here on KZfaq. If you would rather buy new I'd look at a machine from YesWelder Which is the brand I was using. I've been very surprised by the quality for the price. Hope this helps! Let em know if you have any other questions!

I read that it needs to be primed with a latex primer for it to work. If you prime with oil-based primer it will adhere initially but will quickly fail. You need to remove the coating to weld it anyway and my spray paint is oil-based so it's just easier to go ahead and remove it. With a good paint job, I'm not worried about rust.

Thank you!

Yep! Should have clamped them together and drilled through both of them

Yeah, I’m not sure. I don’t have any experience with brazing.

@@PatrickRemington Keep up the good work, bud. Loving the DIY RTT community you seem to have started, it's awesome!

@@antontaylor4530 Thanks man! Glad you are enjoying it!

Yes, you have to remove the spoiler. I used the spoiler mounting holes to secure the ladder on the top left.

Haha thanks! I know I got an least one additional subscriber for that effort!

Thanks! No, I can not.

Thanks!

It's not much weight so they hold just fine.

Thank you!

I can see the title now. 🙌 the MOST ULTRA LIGHT RTT EVER!

Thank you!

I would get a tap cutter tool that matches the nut you are using and just re-tap the threads after you weld the nuts on. Does that make sense?

@@PatrickRemington yes that makes sense, if i saw your reply sooner i would've done that, instead i used some threaded tabs from my motorcycle, worked perfect

Absolutely! I was just using it because that’s what I was leaning at the time.

​@@PatrickRemingtongood to know. Cuz I have the old gen 3 ravs with the spare at the back and I can't find any ladders for this vehicle and even if I do its like 800 bux. So thank you for this guide.

Yes definitely! I just don't have one

Actually looking online I think I can just use a regular conduit bender to get the angles. Thanks for the video gonna attempt one for my fzj80. Was originally gonna buy one for an FJ and modify it, but this is cheaper and I can make it however I want.

@@jaimereyes7480 Yeah you can definitely use a conduit bender just wanted to show how to do it without the bender.

😂😂

@@PatrickRemington I'm going to build one for my 2002 4runner. I'm going to make the ladder sides out of 2" flat bar 3/16" thick, and use extruded aluminum for steps to match my roof rack. I am leaving the rear spoiler on, so will need to modify the upper bracket. Enjoyed watching this and got plenty of ideas from your build. Great job.

@@snowhiterover Nice! i'd love to see that project!

It’s an AC-DC tig welder by yes welder yeswelder.com/products/tig250p-acdc

Thank you Great work

Yep.. The reason I avoided that method was to keep from having to buy a new tool I would rarely use and I wanted to avoid the learning curve where I might ruin a few pieces before figuring it out.

Because I don’t have a conduit bender and didn’t feel like buying one and wasting metal trying to figure out the angles of the bends.

The first reason is that I don't have that tool and wanted to avoid buying another took that I wouldn't really need again. Also, that tool comes with a learning curve and I didn't want to waste any conduit try to learn out to get the bends just right.

Yes I know. I’ve been tig welding for a week before this video

@@PatrickRemington Oh dang, a whole week, look out! Just razing ya, man. Trying to help. I've been doing it over 20 years.

@@dREaDneck_Moto haha yeah I know.. tig welding has a heck of a learning curve! Got lots to learn!

I'll take that as a compliment
