damn that qualifies for the world worst welding

Damien!

Dude. Are you kidding me?

you should try squirting a little PB Blaster on that steel wool every once in a while. you'll have those rims looking new in no time.

I like you but please learn to weld properly. I say this with zero attitude towards you. I like you but....This welding of yours is cringe worthy. Perhaps AVE would send you a proper rig along with some crash courses. Regards- Ricardo

What the hell kind of car was that?

this will end it all.
I bet you don't have a girlfriend do you?

YOU DONT MAKE CHROME THICKER BY POLISHING IT GENIUS

those wheel bearings are adjustable :)
Just take the hub apart and clean it a bit, should be fine then.
The bike doesn't look that bad tho, i can't wait to see what you will do with it!

Next time try some 'Bar Keepers Friend' on the chrome. It makes cleaning rust supper easy and you don't get the scratches the steel wool leaves behind. Plus it polishes the chrome and it's crazy cheep.

Your welding is better than mine. But I plan to learn to do it right some day.

As far as editing, I think it's worth it if you've got the time. Your videos aren't bad, but cutting stuff that isn't great will improve overall quality and appeal to a wider audience. But it has to be something you want to spend time doing. Because if making videos isn't fun for you, there is no point.

are you gay

Rinoa, Telling your viewers to go f themselves as you did in "Kyle Andersons" comment is not cool. I have seen you do this many times. You set a great example for children that watch your channel. You should also try not being so arrogant when people try to give you advice. There only trying to help whether they are right or wrong.

Drill a weep hole in that tube so water can't accumulate.

Hi Rinoa, I wanted you to ask if it is safe to charge lead-acid batteries indoors. Thank you very much for replying.

doing the best you can with what you've got, that's what it's all about. As a side note I quite like the rambling and as a viewer i can always skip it if I just want to!

cleaning crome with steel wool is exhausting. Cola and aluminium foild work wonders. Seriously.

Have you ever thought of taking some welding classes at a community college. Welding is a technical art and the more you know the more creative you can be. I was thinking of taking some welding classes myself.

So cool love the old Schwinn Bikes

what happened (or is happening) with your Quad/trike project(s) do you still plan rebuilds or making one electric or what - just curious :-)
Keep up the great vids.
