Fabricating a supporting steel frame for the tracked amphibious vehicle hull which will make the whole ATV rigid. Welding on square tubing and free cutting steel with angle grinder which, in my opinion, is much faster way than going to the cut off saw and setting clamp angles and such. Also cleaning up rusty rims I took tires off of in the previous episodes. Instead of using just angle grinder and a wire wheel I use electrolysis that works brilliantly. Had to finish up the rims with a wire wheel though to knock off loosened rust. Worked like a charm. Next week I'll be attaching the DC 12 V winches and hopefully completing the hull's bottom half to make it as water tight as an amphibian's supposed to be. :) Thanks for watching! More videos will come. Subscribe for more! Cheers!
