How to Build a Roll Cage| Step by Step
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
A full, in depth video of how to design and fabricate a roll cage. A customer brought us in his gutted Nissan 350z to build a full cage in. He is driving the car in the "Champcar" series so there were some specifications and rules that we needed to follow when designing and building this cage! Hope you enjoy and thank you all for the support.

Same, I'm a welder by trade and wanting to do my own cage for a fun project and this video was spot-on exactly what I wanted.

Man, this was perfect. The flow, details, simplified info, and everything was easy to follow. Much appreciated.
Hands down best fab video on the interwebz as of right now. I'm a welder/fabricator and am always watching videos to learn new things and I couldn't be more satisfied after watching this.

Thanks alot!
I'll watch this more than once. Best rollcage video on the Tube.
Badass that this is free. People that share their knowledge instead of gatekeeping are the best!
This was such an awesome and well done video on the subject! Lots of guys out there can do good cages, but this video was done really well to compliment the skills with the shop!
Loaded with tips and techniques! Worth every minute. I will be watching it again for refresher course. Thanks for taking the time to make the video!
This video rocks! As a veteran bender from doing custom exhaust tubing for 16 years, I’m getting ready to build my first cage. I’ve been trying to find videos on cage design or even figure out what hoop you start off with. Your video was extremely informative and you actually explain everything with the hows and whys you do things the way you do- which is very similar to my teaching style. Thanks so much for putting in the time to make this. Subscribed!
Thanks for sharing of your hard earned experience and wisdom on general fabrication tips and tube bending do’s and don’t’s as well as your reasons and methodologies on cage construction. I really do appreciate that you explained your reasons and logic on various points in the construction of this cage. That was really helpful. Although this wasn’t a cage for a drag racing door car, the general approach, materials, construction and thinking are all the same, to keep the driver safe and add major rigidity to to the chassis. Thanks a ton, bud !
can u please do a tutorial on how u built ur tube bender
This is a fantastic video. A few years ago I built my own cage in a 240Z, and while it turned out OK, I wasted a lot of material with screw-ups and mid-course corrections. If I had seen this video prior to the build, it would have helped immensely.
Definitely worth every minute of watch time.
Hey just letting you know this is a FANTASTIC video. Was not expecting to sit through an hour+ video on a whim, but glad I did. You just cleared up a whole lot of questions I had without making me wanna blow my brains out. THANK YOU!
You guys have done a wonderful job of explaining the various procedures it takes to build a legal and safe cage. Thanks so much.
Broooo the TAPE trick was by far the best thing i saw in this video..... lord jesus this one was so simple and it helped me put X door bars in my car into an existing rollcage... thanks so much. WOnderfully done video and cage work....
probably the best how to video i have seen, sometimes people use silly loud music in between and it sucks, this was amazing well explained always and simple, well done chaps.
This whole video was amazing, but it was worth so much learning how to get at the welds on the top of the cage. Mind blown. Thank you.
Probably the best roll cage instructional video on YT. Thank you!
Great video. Probably the longest video I’ve ever watched on KZread but it had so much good info that it was totally worth it. Thanks for sharing
I am going to be building a Lucky Dog/Chump/Lemons cage soon. Your video is by far the best thing I've watched on the subject. Thank you for explaining your processes perfectly.
Outstanding!!. Maybe tge most in depth and simplified video I've seen. Not only roll cage specific but overall fabrication approaches to be used on a variety of fab projects. At 64 its nice for an old dog to learn new tricks. Your attention to detail is top shelf. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving and merry Christmas.
Awesome video man. The detail is great, and the tips and tricks of years and years of experience will help people of all skill levels. Really enjoyed the video, nice job man.
Thankyou guys for this video !!!! You guys answered every single question I’ve had about building my cage. Your an absolute god send so thanks again !!!!
That vertical set up is so amazing! Makes your whole system work awesome. Be great for garage people that dont have 2 empty bays to do a main.
Very detailed video. Thank you for putting so much time into this. I will happily dedicate the full hour to watch it
Best roll-cage construction tutorial ever!
Best movie documentary DIY film ever! And it came from my favorite angle kit manufacturer! Well done, this will be forever reference video. Good job bud! 👏
Awesome video. Watched the whole thing. Some very good information. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Such a joy to see someone do it the right way.
Such a gift. Learned so much. The tool list was a nice touch to get started. THANK YOU!!
Hands down the best roll cage building video out here. Fantastic job guys!

Most in-depth video on the web on roll cage fabrication I enjoyed and learned a lot of how to I feel more confident now on welding my cage in my mustang 😊🐎
This deserves more views - probably one of the best detailed videos. Much love from Ottawa! I can't wait to snag a few of your parts for my G35!
I was watching it to the end and its been like 15 minutes, such a good content, so many informations and great explanation of each step so that there are no questions left, thank you for this video, I'm really trying to start witch fabricating and this is really helpful

Great Great Great job. This takes skill plus a lot of time and experience. I can see why your looking to do something else. Great when you are young. As you get older much harder doing stuff like this for a living. Who ever gave this thumbs down has never tried doing this kind of work.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, not many professionals are this open about their knowledge base as you are. Thank you for this video!🤘👍
Dude is a machine!! Awesome info and possibly best video on KZread. Much appreciated!
I just cant believe that someone would be willing to give away so many tips and tricks that must have took years to learn. Thank you very much.

We are out of the roll cage business and only focus on suspension now. So passing on what I know before shutting it down seemed like the best thing to do
Wow, this is an outstanding video that was very well explained. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, a lot of fab guys keep their secrets locked up tighter than a drum. Wish this video was out when I built my 8 point.
super dope video man, I don't think people realize how much it takes to see what we're seeing. Great work, crystal-clear and concise. Thank you for all of your knowledge, and insider tips.
