Basic Damage Repair on the Aluminum Body

...with Kent White

How-To Video: Basic Damage Repair on the Aluminum Body by Kent White 5_bulb Review this video!

A vintage Porsche RSK nose is axed clear through, straightened, gas welded (butt-weld), planished and metal finished to perfection, on camera, with no edits, a few simple hand tools, - and no fillers. Very good demonstration of fitting up for butt-welding.

(about 63 minutes)

Almost a 5, could use a better menu and navigation. The video demonstrates in detail how to fix a major dent in an aluminum section. We actually see how the dent is made with an axe! And then he goes through the whole process of fixing it up right before our eys, where to hammer, where and how to file, how to weld it with an oxyacetylene torch, etc. (That's right, welding Aluminum with a torch)

The last 7 minutes are a small plug for his tools, and actually useful to watch too, because it gives an overview of the different tools and techniques.

The hammering technique and process is probably useful for steel too, so don't let that prevent you from renting the vid. I don't know if his welding technique can be applied to steel.
