CarAudioFab Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hello all! I have been working on a video playlist on youtube where I discuss different car audio tools. Rather than make a different thread for each tool I will be using this thread to constantly update my tool reviews. Week 1: Bojo Installer Trim Removal Tools Week 2: Self Adjusting Wire Strippers Week 3: Ryobi Router Table Week 4: Thread Setter This thing is nice! -Mark Host of "CarAudioFabrication" - YouTube Car Audio Tutorial Channel Check out my forum section here on SMD for my builds and tutorial videos!

SnowDrifter Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 Something I never knew existed for the longest time: a stepped drill bit.

Wicks Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 NICE POST...! A thread setter...... I've been looking for a way to attach items to the sheetmetal in my trunk.....rivets, threaded inserts for wood, lag bolts, jack nuts, etc. Never heard of one of a thread-setter, but this looks very promising and not overly expensive. I was set on using rivets which aren't too friendly when it comes to removal. I owe you one!

CarAudioFab Posted November 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 I owe you one! Haha thanks man, yeah I must say this tool is VERY useful. Though I wouldn't recommend using it for mounting enclosures that weigh anything more than 30 pounds, it does and excellent job at securing amp racks, panels, amps, etc. and it is super easy and effective to use. -Mark Host of "CarAudioFabrication" - YouTube Car Audio Tutorial Channel Check out my forum section here on SMD for my builds and tutorial videos!

I went to entertain you and teach you a thing or too! Your comment makes me feel great though thanks! I would love to see pics of your kerfing! I posted something in the kerf thread to the tunes of "if you learned to kerf because if this video post up some pics!" it would just make me really happy to see what someone else was able to accomplish because of the video! -Mark Host of "CarAudioFabrication" - YouTube Car Audio Tutorial Channel Check out my forum section here on SMD for my builds and tutorial videos!

Absolutely! My trunk is full of curvy thin sheetmetal which makes it impossible to mount amp racks and trim panels to. Literally nothing at right angles or smooth and I really wasn't looking forward to a bunch of rivets and/or lag bolts. I ordered the tool and some inserts last night. http://www.surebonde...7&prod_cat_id=9 I'll try them out and definitely give you a shout-out on my build with the results.
