Backyard Metal Fabrication

Hi,

Just a few shots of what I have been doing over the last few years.



Let me know what you think.

that is hardly backyard standard, GTFO

[garvice]

Wow, bit embarrassed about my efforts now. HA. No keep up the good work.

[crack]

Very nicely done.

[Rz]

Real nice

[Fondles]

Nice job on the pedals, for a back yardie they almost look bought.

[Billzilla]

Very nice work.
You'll get business from here with quality like that.

[JOHN MAYER]

I have a backyard. Come make me some parts

[JZK25]

Very nice, what machine are you using?


And get that thing in PF street cars asap. Duratorq in 323 with S300 BW turbo?

[noizy323]

Thanks for the comments guys

I'm using a UNITIG machine, It'll need a bit of duco before it goes in any magazines I think. Duratec is the Ford marketing name but yes its the same engine, the motor is full of Ford and Mazda bits, it was pulled from an 04 Mazda 3 FWD. The turbo is an s200sx. If anyone needs anything just shoot me a message. I might have some more pics later on.

you outsource the folding or do you have a big pan brake in the shed?

you 3D model stuff before fab (e.g. ex manifold)?

when making the sump did you need the top and front faces milled?

you got any progress fab pics of the inlet mani?

Folding is done on my panbrake. Nothing on the car was designed on CAD and yes the faces must be milled true. I'll try and get some pictures of the intake manifold, it's very basic in design, probably nothing better than a standard manifold, something I whipped together until I have the time to design my good manifold.

Really nice work, how long have you been doing it for?

I have been doing this for a few years now and only just started taking on work. The first major job I started on the car was the diff conversion.

[ALLMTR]

Nice work! Love the work gear

Tig welding Aussie style like a boss!

[garvice]

If it was Aussie style he would be wearing thongs

[All For You]

Man very impressed, backyard or not the finished product is nothing short of professional.

How are runners paired on a split pulse 4cyl manifold?

Cylinders are paired depending on the firing order of the engine. If yours is 1342 then cylinders 1 and 3 are paired and 2 and 4 are paired.

Thanks.

Yeah no, opposites in the firing cycle are paired. 1 and 4, 3 and 2(normal I4) or 1 and 2, 3 and 4 for a subaru.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to correct. My firing order is 1-3-4-2, so if I pair the opposites in the firing order that pairs 1 and 3 together, and 2 and 4 together.

What did you use to bend those hardlines to shape in the first pic? about to make some lines up for my car, and unsure of how to go about bending them up...

Plumbing shop should have the tools needed to bend soft tube like aluminium or copper, there is a bit of "over the knee" bending needed too.

awesome work man well done!!!!!! Are you self taught or do you have a background in welding cause those welds are faultless!!!! One of my mates is a boilermaker by trade, been in the game for fkn years and he cant tig like that!!!!

[methodmania]

Got to remember to wear sunscreen on shoulders and arms when you weld with a singlet or you end up with nice tan lines. Big red ones if you weld using over 100amps!

[noizy323]

I've been welding for almost a couple of years now, some people pick it up quick and others really struggle with it.
