Ace thnks
But he seems to have a couple of screws loose …
Posted 2 years agoAfter watching his two build videos for this there was a large wait for the test drive film. I was convinced it had failed in some way, but as ever that’s bloody brilliant. I wonder what happens to all the vehicles he builds? Can’t keep them all surely?
Posted 2 years agoThat’s brilliant! He’s off his head!
The Monday Night Pub Ride crew did a film with him for EDF energy last year. He’s a really nice bloke. He always just built mad stuff in his shed and now makes a living out of it. Good luck to him
We’re on from 6.40 in should you be interested

This, was expecting a video from a hospital bed (though you half expect that every video, he is going to blow himself up one day). He is turning into one hell of a prototyper/fabricator.
Posted 2 years agohe is going to blow himself up one day
He’s already done it!
Posted 2 years agoI was thinking more along the lines of them collecting the bits of him that were left from a lincolnshire field after the premature detonation of his 8 million subscriber 400ft uber catherine wheel.
Posted 2 years agoI spotted some re-inforcements to the screw threads. I wonder if that was part of the delay.
It’d be ace on some sand dunes (not proteccted ones obvs). I would say it’d be good on snow, but a snowmobile is probably more fun.

No he’ll be perfectly safe – he usually wears a safety tie 😉
Posted 2 years agoNot sure about taking it on snow. There isn’t really anything to stop it sliding sideways. Going straight up a slope would be fine, but if it deviated from pointing directly up it could just slide away sideways back to the bottom.
Posted 2 years agoWhy would that be any different to mud or sand?
Last video was available to subscribers after the second one came out I think.

You’re right, he had a couple of hairy moments on those muddy side slopes. I reckon some sort of blade keel, or even a transverse screw would sort it though.
Posted 2 years agoThat’s awesome. The original Russian ones actually seemed to be worse than his.
Posted 2 years agoSeems mad dangerous to have the screws rotating inwards.

They are all in his underground bunker
Posted 2 years ago+1 bunker. I planned one as a boy except mine had wall-to wall Scalextric track and antechamber with extensive personal library 🤓
Colin’s is better though as he
1. Actually built the bunker
Posted 2 years ago
2. Fitted an ejector bed. Perky fella innee?Seems mad dangerous to have the screws rotating inwards.
Especially with that tie
Posted 2 years agoIIRC he used to ride a BMX
Posted 2 years agocolins cabin fever cure
Posted 2 years agowould have thought he’d have been more cleverer with the gear change
Posted 2 years agoHis videos have given me lot of enjoyment lately. Loved the Stig 100hp Dodgem Car one.

All that gave rise to one thought. “Why isn’t there a Colin Furze / Project Binky mashup?”
He’d have finished it in a long weekend.Why isn’t there a Colin Furze / Project Binky mashup?
he’s got a plasma cutter, and according to some on here it would spoil binky cos binky is all about 30 mins on how to make a washer bottle bracket, and then having to remake it after changing your mind. Knocking one out in 30 secs on a plasma cutter is cheating.
Posted 2 years agoThe super fast mobility scooter was one of my favourites. Showed that to the in-laws who had scooters at the time !
Posted 2 years agoCake-o-matic is our favourite at work
CAKE! CAKE!
Posted 2 years agoDo you need planning permission for an underground bunker?
Posted 2 years agoWCA – if you look on his a YouTube channel the video he posted last Thursday was a revisit of the bunker and he answered this question.

Do you need planning permission for an underground bunker?Not if it’s a secret one. 🙂
Posted 2 years agoPosted 2 years agothat’s some shed Mr Furze
Posted 2 years agoI really enjoyed that. I had a couple of periods in my life working in big engineering workshops and that brought it all back.
Posted 2 years agoColin goes back to the future….
Posted 2 years agomore screwing
Posted 2 years agothink he’s fishing for master criminal consultancy work….
Posted 1 year agoHe’s auditioning to be a Bond Villain. Or Q. I can’t make my mind up which.
Posted 1 year agomad but brilliant
Posted 1 year agoI agree.
Posted 1 year agoPosted 1 year agoThat was excellent. Like how it doesn’t just work, he had to go through various versions and his selection of tools is beautiful
Posted 1 year agoReally not sure how I’ve managed to never watch one of his videos before. Just watched his workshop tour. Brilliant. Recognized lots of similar tools to my Dad’s collection, most of which I don’t know how to use, but hope to start learning a bit at some point.
Posted 1 year agohe is god
bloody brilliant
