How not to make things, and why bother as well!
But I gave it a couple minutes. When that putz declared he could weld better'n anyone. . .Best clue a huge fail is next. Must be evidence; a generation taught by Transformers cartoons.
Not to mention concept of increased [at least 15x] exponential leverage against a 10" something bolt flange, and smaller yet bolt circle. Or idea extreme width would render any manner equivalent steering!
I want to see reaction, driver of flatbed wrecker.
And how long it took getting it ready to winch aboard.
And how long it took to write out the billing details. . .

I find it a classic case of having access to too much of daddy's money.
I noted that the video was all about creating some kind of attention getting drama, much akin to many of the Hollywood or low production cost movies and most so called reality shows on TV.
You probably didn't catch the part near the end where he was driving his blue Ford and explaining about learning to shift the gears back in the 1980's In order for that to have happened it would put him in his 40s at least and he clearly was not 40ish.
Yeah better welder than anyone else was a sure fire setup to fail right there.
A guy once applied for a welder's position when the wife and I had our shop. I was as usual a little too busy to stop what I was doing to administer a welding test so the Jane called my truck driver friend to give him the test. WD was by no means a first class welder but he did know his way around a mig gun well enough.
SO he took the guy to the booth handed him the gun then spun the dials on the machine to zero, said there have at it we need a flat lap weld a vee'd grove horizontal a vertical up and vertical down diagonal up overhead and full overhead grove weld her are some coupons and some test scrap for setting the machine. I'll be back in fifteen minutes.
The machine was loaded with .045 Hobart Excel 550 duel shield flux-cored wire. WD came over to the lathe where I was busy and said I'm giving that guy a welding test the way you taught me how to weld. I just asked, did you at least turn the machine on for him?
Nope and I didn't mention the gas either.
OH well if he is a welder he will be able to figure it out I said and kept on doing what I was doing.
you could hear some of the most off color language coming from the test booth for about 15 minutes. Finally I had heard all I could stand stopped what I was doing then went to see what was going on. Believe it on not the slop on the guy's stuff in his video looked better than what I saw when I looked at his finished coupons

I was going to say — this guy has waaaaay too much time on his hands — and disposable income — but no sense of load bearing. I was expecting him to pop an axle, just taking it off the jacks. And rather amazed — looking at his excuse for welds — it held together as long as it did. Guy could use a basic class in physics, and an extended course in welding. (Absolute waste of space.)

I enjoy most of the posts here but is not punting on these idiotic You Tube videos on to another forum giving these idiots exactly what they want, if they are completely ignored they just might go away, just saying.

Some call it punting, others venting. . .Either way good for us.
With such work as evidence, ascension to HMT.net isn't likely. Too bad, we could render a proper lambaste en masse!

Not exactly sure what we have here, beyond that we do have it, and it is here.
