I am about to replace my plastic bumper cover. And this is also a good time to replace the headlights. If as in my case it is needed to do.

I picked up a very good condition used one last Oct. Now that the weather is nice, I find myself using this FC-i all the time. So much simpler for quick projects or repairs, compared to using my old Century Buzz Box.

Great job man excellent video

Nice welder. I am a beginner. I clicked on the video because I saw the FORNEY. I am using one at work, it's a different model, but looks identical to yours. The machine is solid and easy to use. I am considering buying the machine you have for my own personal use. Good review, thanks a bunch.👍👍

No effect after taking off the lower support bars ?

Killer job my man. I’ve been wanting to do something like this. Been eyeballing those Prinsus for a few years now.

Nice video. I have the Forney 125 FC. I normally use lincoln .30 Wire. my welds are usually dirty with so much buckshot. I have a friend that is a good welder although does not earn his living as a welder and he is telling me I need to reverse polarity on my Forney and that would clean up the buckshor and help with penetration. Are you familiar with changing the polarity on your Forney?

Hey...nice build. I heard u said 3/16 aluminum...is that .190 when selecting 'size' on the site? I see there are options ranging from .04 to .19 on the drop menu for 'size' using the link u provided. I appreciate the feedback...thanks!

Tnutz makes rails that are already tapped on each end now. Looks good, I was looking for a decent solution for the brackets to attach to the roof, I like your method.

You should do a side by side comparison of this welder against the LincolnEllectric 90i FC. Good review thank you

WAY OVERPRICED FOR THAT AMOUNT YOU CAN GET A MACHINING THAT RUNS ON 110 AND 220 WITH MORE AMPERAGE OVERPRICED

Awesome job dude, I’m using your methods when I build mine. Thanks!

Super nice build. i would like to do smth similar for a LR 3. the price for a commercial one are ridiculous. One quick question. How did u make the mounts?

I’m looking to put a roof rack on a sedan. Unlike the SUVs and your Tacoma, it doesn’t have factory mounting points. Right now it looks like I can remove the headliner and drill holes up through the reinforced portion of the roof. Always open to thoughts and ideas if you have any.

Where did you get the exhaust fatty pipe?

Where did you buy the pipe ? I’m trying to rebuild this same bike and I can’t find a pipe for it anywhere

Thanks for showing what this welder can do, I'm going to be buying one at Home Depot. Welding is so awesome! I can't wait to get all the practice I can.

Great job, dude! Looks totally professional. The slotted rails really are the greatest thing since sliced bread for DIY'ers.

Thanks for the video, you just give me good idea for my futur Honda Element

Next project I'm doing Roof Rack manufactors are loosing their mind with their dogon prices.

dude, this is awesome mind if I use this idea for my first gen Tacoma? only reason I ask is because I will be making a video on it too. ill be sure to link to your video for instruction.

Love the videos. It’s been over a year, any videos anytime soon? I have the same Tacoma. Would love to see more projects and get some inspiration.

Solid video. Thanks bro. And nice Moab shirt. Utah is my playground.

dope

Thumbnail: "No special tools!" Man what do you call the machine saw you use to cut that aluminium.. that's so a special tool 😅

These machines are no longer designed and built in the USA, are completed Chinese, they only put the equipment in boxes in Colorado, mine lasted only 2 weeks, I waste 400 hundred dollars. They advertise: do not return the welder machine, of course, they know that they are selling junk compared with real brands you know what I mean blue and Red brands.

Great video!

Nice job bro

sweet build! definitely use what I learned here to build a similar rack for my 2021 Highlander since no one makes one for it.

Buddy would you build me one for my 98 4runner, please

Looks great thank

If you want to use it on thicker metals try preheating material to 300 degrees

Did you do 220 libe yet? It's real easy. Locate the manufacturer of your box. Buy a double breaker 30 or 40 amp. 10:2 or 10:3 wire. 10.2 black and white or black and red go to the poles on your breaker the bare wire goes into the screw hole in the panel. Holding the outlet in your hands the black wire goes to the right. The white wire to the left. The bare wire on the green screw. If You're using 10.3 you will have red green black and a bare wire you will need a special outlet for that wiring set up. If using the 4 wire one then the red and black go into each pole on your double breaker the bare wire and green wire each get screwed into the screw slots on your box. Then you get your special plug for that wire and it will tell you where each wire goes. Hope that helps if you didn't do it yet.

Awesome build. Do you get much wind noise or whistle from the T-slot rails?

Love this guy So easy going and smart Fun to learn from

I got the same welder a bunch of months ago. I find it splatters like crazy but it could just be me, it’s the first welding I’ve ever done when I got it.

Great video. Can you tell me what is the distance from the roof to the bottom of the bars? Have you had any issues the brackets touching the roof?

Super good video. About to buy this to do sheet metal repair on a old vw beetle. Very very good video

Great work, but this job involves $6000 worth of tools ⚒️ 😄

Have the same welding machine. When I'm trying to weld I just get a bunch of popping and splattering. What do you think I should do ?

Do you have a detailed drawing....you said something about the drawing in the video was wrong, what's the right locations?

What was the amperage level on the 3 samples?

Nice!...

Good job. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I'm thinking about doing this on my silverado 1500. What did you use for feet, and did you have to drill into the roof?

Made in US ?

Awesome build man. I definitely will diy mine when time is right. Thanks for sharing!

Can anyone recommend an optimal wire speed/voltage setting for 1/4 and 3/16 inch steel on 120v? Thanks.

I iike your video. I can't seem to get my settings right. What settings do you use for 16 gauge 1 inch tube?

Can I use this for my 5th gen 4Runner ?
