What a decent bloke - too many are on here to build up a following then go down the pay per view route - good on ya mate

Trev, good on you for not selling out like some other content providers have done. I admire your ethical approach. Great graphical demonstration of the physics at work during the shrinking process. Regards, Mark Presling

Love you skill.i was 58 i started teaching myself how to shape an form metal. Im learning everytime i work metal. Your experiance helps me trmendusly. Your a true MASTER ! thank you.

Wait for those sponsor companies to come along Trev, the ones that donate products to you but you give them a mention and show the products in use. Another great video.

Thanks Trev for staying with your original intent ,ie helping the novice in his shed and not going in the other directions you mentioned. Your advice is invaluable. Cheers from Australia

Thank you for explaining the 'doughnut' effect. I have one of those nasty sharp dents in my car and even though I don't have a fancy spot weld puller, the knowledge will help me massage the dent out more effectively. I love to learn new things. Also, thank you for understanding about those who can't donate. I sometimes feel a bit guilty because I am not a patron, especially to some of the channels that talk a lot about how wonderful their patrons are, but I am a pensioner and every bit of my money must go to keeping me going. If I had the means, I would be donating to many of my favourite channels, one of which is yours of course. Cheers.

Trev, I agree ...good for you for not selling out! I greatly appreciate your desire to help the "common bloke" get some education without having to go to a trade school.

You are such a genuine bloke Trev. For me, it is a real pleasure to be able to watch such craftsmanship, get a detailed explanation of what to do, and why, and learn from it.

While I was watching the video, I wanted to give likes 2 or 3 times forgetting that I have liked the video from the beginning. 10/10

Dont even think about leaving youtube Trev us that are half way through our builds will be lost mate

I commend you for not selling out for the all mighty dollar (or pound). Your willingness to teach and share is greatly appreciated!!! Thank you Sir.

Thank you for keeping a pure channel. You are a talented guy, and these have been immensely informative for me, a beginner with sheet metal.

What a star you are that is brilliant you give so much help such a nice guy in doing that keep up your excellent work mate.

Essentially a dent acts just like a drop of water, the ripple it creates. Great vid!

G'day from West Australia, glad to see a man that still understands steel manipulation. Bit of a dying art in Australia.

Hi trev donation sent . I have no intention of panel beating any vehicle but it's good to watch a true craftsman at work . I will stick to sockets and spanners 😉

Trev, you sure ahve helped me in my bus and MG restos, can't thank you enough. Cannot wait to see the van done, think it might be better than when it left the factory.

I admire that you are staying true to your subscribers., keep up your excellent work mate.

Dude..... you do beautiful metal work, my friend. Unbelievable. You’re an incredible artist.

Here is one dude to learn from. You are good at this. You learn me some skills and i have been in this buisness for 40 years. Keep it upp.

Great video @trev. One of the many counter-intuitive aspects of metal working. Thank you.

Outstanding job Trev. I always get something extra from your videos.

What a great video Trev. Fixing up my Kombi I've also had to pull up dents that can't be accessed from the back, particularly around the swage line next to the windows. Having a stud welder like that is something I always want to add to my kit but never seems to happen. Keep up the videos as your able, not let others corrupt you!

Beautiful work Trev. I learn a lot watching your videos. Like the raised surface surrounding a sharp dent.

Brilliant! I always look for your tips and techniques. The best body shop stuff on youtube. Thanks!

Finally a panel beater worthy . Completely! Thank you very much mate from panel beaters Australia

Thank you very much Trev. Your work is great, and I, personally, learn a whole lot from you. You are doing great. Keep on being yourself.

Trev, you are a gentleman and a scholar. From the US I will be contributing in the near future. Your desire to help others is inspirational. Thank you very much.👍😃🤙🙏

Thanks for making all of this awesome info available to the common man, Trev. Your ethics are noted and greatly appreciated :)

Another great video! I have used a lot of the lessons you have shown on your channel on my old 46 Ford pickup. Always tons on useful information! Thank you Trev, you’re the best!

What a nice bloke and yet another great repair video, and of course classic vehicles getting the benefit of being saved to live on too.

I learn something EVERY time I watch your videos.

Yay! Another video from Trev! 😎 Love the content and thorough explaination. I am happy to see the new kit find a use in this video. I feel you can be more precise with it.. I learned shrinking with a torch and hammer. Love that you are staying true to your subscribers.. this is exactly the information I come to KZfaq for! Thanks Trev! Cheers Mate!!

Hello Trev, Thank you for the detailed explanations of your demonstrations. You have the ability to make things clear and interesting. We all learn so much from you. Stay true to your plan of getting the information out there. You have my thanks and support.

Trev you are like a breath of fresh air to people who are looking to gain valuable easy to understand information on all manner or metal working tasks. A true gentlemen with a passion for sharing quality knowledge and encouragement to people who will hopefully start to tackle jobs that They may have only dreamed about before. Hope I don’t sound too corny but you really are a top bloke 👍

Very clever, Trev. A fantastic and clear explanation of what happens, for example, with hail damage. And this is why hail damage is expensive to repair!!

Closing remarks re sharing knowledge reminds me of my Father's words knowledge shared is knowledge grown exponentially. Good one buddy like your style😉🙂👍👍

Top quality information - Never used this kind of kit before

I'm amazed that this channel only has 36k subs as I feel it's one of the best D.Y.I. channels there is for body repair. I believe you to be a sheet metal artist and a gifted master body man. I've learned more from your channel in a year than from the previous 35 years of doing bodywork. Thank you very much for your brilliant instruction!

A fantastic channel Trev. So nice to get a UK guy telling it like it is. Im new to fabricating and welding, and find your videos a must have. Will donate as soon as I can get back to work. Keep it up Trev.

A lot of useful information here. Thanks Trev!

Thanks for another great video Trev. I learned I've been pushing too hard. Great Tips!

I swear I say this every time, but this was the most amazing video yet. The donut is truly amazing... You have a much better system than a stud welders. Much quicker.

Trev... You're a boss! Thanks for your vids. I'm a diesel mac but able to flip dents on my ride now because of the wealth of knowledge you shared. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

Really great tips on the heat shrinking. Every day is a school day. Thanks Trev 👍🏼

Very cool Trev, love your attitude! Happy Trails, Doug

Great track for the outro! As for the rest of it....well, it's up there with the very best in my book. Spot-on techniques backed by generous quantities of solid, in-depth info (some would say 'straight as a die' ). Thanks Trev, I always learn something useful and nothing that's steered me in the wrong direction. Keep up the good work.

Fantastic video as usual, keep up the great work. I have learned a lot from your videos and I am currently almost finished with all the metal repair work on my 1983 Chevrolet Malibu Station Wagon. Thank you for the great videos.

Thanks Trev, really helpful vid and I’m happy you’ve not been influenced to take your well respected channel in a money making direction. You’re true gent 👍🏻

Trev as always, thanks for the in depth tips. I use an insert in my mig welder that lets me insert a carbon tip to heat shrink. I’ve struggled with pressure and process and your insight has helped a ton, heat, then press. Great content, you are a wizard!!!

I enjoy your blogs Trev, you are very talented, when viewing the vans condition when you started on it I would have considered it an almost impossible task, all credit to you.

Your a top bloke Trev! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us guys stuck in a garage scratching our head. Think you've got a few thousand or so apprentice's keeping an eye peeled for your next words of wisdom. 😀

Awesome Videos Trev. So glad I found your channel.

Excellent and inspirational, the UK 's version of Ron Fournier, another metal shaping hero. Thankyou.

Awesome skills love the vids. And hell yea keep it real never let people bye ya out. You doing what you want to do is what has made the channel great. 👍

Your a true car guy, giving your experience to help those in the car hobby succeed. Keep it and tell the money grubbers to pound sand. Thanks for the great vid, a great help to me fixing up my 67 Rambler Rebel. Ray

Great work Trev

Wow, something new! Thanks Trevor - it's an art, using science.

I found this after searching specifically for info on this topic. I learned things here I had no clue about before; a great video from a good teacher. Well explained and in interesting manner. I will be watching many more of your viedos - thank you for sharing your knowledge. Cheers

Thank you Trev for explaining this process and sharing your experience ....you've helped me no end 🙏

That's a nice bit of gear Trev. Perfect in that double skin situation. Thanks for posting mate.

You're a hell of a guy. Keep it the way it is. Your videos are great. Did you ever think you would reach out to so many people? I'm over here in the States, learning a whole bunch from you. You are very informative and entertaining, with a great attitude. Thank you very much for taking the time for us.

Hi Trev. I have just binged out on your Pods. I have run my own repair workshop for over 40 year and have often kicked myself fo some of my quirks-it’s nice to see one of the best doing the compromises that we all have to make.You said in one of them that your mig. Torch stays live, l have the same mig as you and there is a coil of loose coil of earthing wire between the the aluminium mounting plates that hold the large bank of capacitors. I tried to to get a replacement but had no luck so finding an element from an old electric fire l un wound a bought eight coils and that has worked Now for years.PLESE MAKE SURE YOU EARTH OUT THE CAPACITORS BEFORE CHECKING.l hope this helps. Many thanks. Robin.

Great video Trev. You have some great repair kit and certainly know how to use it. Wow the finish on that panel is fantastic. Cheers, Jeff.

Yes! Another video from Trev!

Please keep on doing these good quality videos. They are well done and informative. Keep to your true self and dont give in to those people pushing to go another direction.

Thanks trev I found your explanation very helpful and well explained. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful Bloke thanks Trev

Great video, I bought one of these machines for my shop. It’s a major game changer.

A very good explanation, Trevor 👏

Brilliant! Again! Great video!

Really like your explanations and diagrams you make the subject very clear. Thanks

Great video again Trev! Love love love this channel! 👍

Another successful explanation of stuff I could never get right. It was a light bulb moment for me and made me understand the why's and the wherefore. I will be practising on my brothers classic mini. Oh yes and thanks for not going down the pay per view you are a gentleman.

Thank you Trev! I totally love your work and your channel!

WHAT A GREAT BLOKE YOU ARE.

HinTrev , I have been watching lots of your videos and just like to say, top man 👍. I have been self taught over the years doing loads of projects but learnt so much from your videos and also had confirmed by you what I have learnt the hard way by trial and error, so would have been easier if I had watched all your videos years ago had they have been there 😂. I would also like to commend you for a KZfaq gold medal for wanting to keep in the spirit of KZfaq and the internet by not jumping on the ' let's get greedy bandwagon' and sharing your knowledge to those who need it rather than those who can afford it 👍. Keep up the good work Trev , thanks for the videos mate , much appreciated 👌👌👌 ,Mick

Wow. Just wow. Great art there!

I enjoy the videos you have put out. I have learned from them. Thanks a lot. Ronnie.

Top man. Well done Trev

Repair looks great, good explanation.

Thanks for the video , really great insight into the trade you have become very skilled in .

I need to be a 'Trev'....Then there would be less need to buy tools.....'NO...WAIT....' Been doing some 'welding' on my daughters Freelander...repair patch fabrication etc...I describe what I have been doing loosely...based on your experience and videos, Trev...and my rather ham fisted initial attempt...ONWARDS and...UPWARDS? Thanks for sharing you knowledge and experience....TOP MAN...

You’re an artist. Make your art the way you want.

Thanks Trev , great little machines they are and Exelent tips for using them.

Your previous video made me buy one but havent used it yet, this is the best reason to go use it!

Thanks for sharing this knowledge. Very clear and precise. Regards from Argentina

very timely video for me thank you Trev . What still amazes me is the opportunity for us to learn a lifetimes of a craftsmans experience and skills in as little as an hours video. I have been repairing my classic cars since 1968 and this sort of information was never available before. There wer'nt any DIY bodywork books you could buy and where would anyone have the opportunity to watch and learn from a local body shop !...When I think about some of the repairs I have done over the years due to ignorance and having no money ...I cringe.

Thanks Trev. You are a legend mate. So helpful.

What a great tool, and another great video.

Ur a great guy, I bet you sleep well. Can't wait to buy a coffee off ur van.

I wish we'd have had more teachers like you at school,👍🏼

Another great video thank´s Trev👍

Bravo young man! There's pleasure in giving which will bring you it's own reward.

Thanks for the videos. I'm inspired and gaining the confidence I need to finally get on some of my projects. 🔧🔨

You point about resistance and pressure complete changes my perspective on the process! I always leaned in harder…. But now I know better, thanks!

Great Trev. I'm from Brazil and I love your Blog. Tks

Para un amateur, aprender estos trucos podría llevar 100 años,. Gracias Trev!

Really good tips as always Trev- video suggestion: repairing hail damage

Trev another great vid please keep them up as they really help people like me working on our projects in the garage. M
