Hey there! My name is Jay Jarvie and you've found my home here on UA-cam.
I'm a prototype engineer with an artists touch. This channel is a place for you to “stop by and visit,” in a virtual sense, see whats going on in the studio and chat about all things creative in art, design, fabrication and technology. You never know what might come through the doors, but mostly we talk cars- In fact, until the project is complete, its mostly about the Jarvie Arete GT supercar! The Arete is a ground up all composites 200 mph vehicle that we are building to showcase our design, engineering and composites skills.
So, come on in, (or pull out your smart phone) sit down and lets talk building and creating!

They say it's going to break! Can composite engineering save my supercar?
3 design features that can increase the strength of a composite structure are investigated. We build several test samples and do some destructive testing to see what will give the Arete supercar's monocoque chassis the best chance to survive the rigors of the road.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Great experiment. I predicted the shapes but didn't know about the foam core. Makes sense.
Realised that how it's made dream cars didn't show the 99.99% of the process
You shouldn’t feel the need to explain things to the internet; they’re never satisfied.
Off topic, but, has anyone ever told you that you look a bit like Bruce Campbell?
How did you calculate the total weight for the cement blocks (not cinder BTW), since a significant portion of the load between the strap and the outrigger support? You can choose either the strap or the out rigger as your fulcrum point, and measure the distance from each block center to the fulcrum in a ratio with the distance between both supports (strap & outrigger). If the outrigger is 20 times the distance from the strap than the load center, you must reduce your effective load to 95% of the actual weight. 10 to 1 would knock you down to 90%. Your rig looks like roughly a 5 to 1 distribution depending on what blocks are placed where...
I could reduce the number of engineering constants if you would submit $5000 dollars for a nice little used Zwick composite testing rig (plus $2000 for shipping from Slovenia). It was all for a point of discussion, not submission for a military contract. Straining at nats. P.S. I live within a hundred miles of 5 large inactive volcanoes and several thousand extinct cinder cones. They do indeed still make cinder blocks here in the Pacific Northwest.

You made it this way because you don't know how to weld?
Nice work and nice demonstration. Don't take to much attention to negative comment, they are all the place anyway, those who made it don't make mistake simply because they do nothing else than commenting... Thank's for sharing your project it's always nice to see creativity at work!
Leviathan youre satanist?
From beginning to end 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️. I liked the process. Not the design. Good job.
Machine balancing at speed is essential to prologue turbo life. It's likely it will 3at itself if not very precisely balanced. Upgrading the thrust bearing would have been ideal while it was stripped.
Awesome. I've always thought about building my own car!
You should! Today is the day!
How does your insurance work
Just find an insurance company who understands or deals in exotic cars or kit cars. Usually, prices are very reasonable, as axillary tables show that very few accidents occur in cars that don't see many miles.
@@BuilderCreator thanks!
Use a generator to power an electric outboard motor for propulsion in the water. You’ll probably want a generator anyways and an electric motor can be stored in any configuration. You won’t get any higher than ten knots unless you plan on over a thousand horsepower anyways. Use a high torque electric motor with a large propeller in order to get solid thrust. You will also have maneuverability issues in the water so be sure to add a bow thruster to turn that thing. I’ve worked on mega yachts for many years and have designed electrical systems for them. Electric propulsion is the way to go in this case. I know I’m very late into the game but just my two cents. Good luck with your build! Looking forward to your build
We are on the same page. There will be a flotation platform attached to the back that will lower down parallel with the frame for water travel. This platform will add additional flotation, and contain the propulsion system (motors). All we need is 4-5 knots. ;)
You can’t beat the feel of chromoly steel.
Well, maraging Steel and titanium feel pretty good! :)
When you were gonna say the price I was thinking like 100k
Kevlar Bumber…Awesomeness Sir 🤠🤠🤠
May God Continue To Bless You and Your Family In Everything You Do Sir. I Think Your Channel Is So Intriguing. I Love Everything That Got Anything That Concerns Engineering. Thank You Taking The Time To Make These Videos and Everything That Goes Into Film Editing and Everything. Thank You For Sharing.
I appreciate that. Some people take free UA-cam content for granted.
So these mufflers are built to become louder after about 1500 miles, when all is burned away😉, nice Idea 👍🏼 like it
Oh my God WOW!
If I was gonna build my own kit car it would be a GTM from Factory Five!
excellent explanation sir, your a pretty exceptional engineer as it goes - you have to love the haters, haha and you handle them so well, personally i think they need the shorts taking down and given a good slapping since they behave like little kids from the point of you building a car, super or otherwise, the wheels base is perfectly short, we are not talking about the same loads that might be exceeded perhaps in a plane or a bridge, so the car and its size are well within tolerances in comparison to using fibre glass, carbon fibre and kevlar which in its self can be considered an overkill in the automotive industry, but safety apparently is looked on as a necessity these days and so cannot be avoided - carbon fibre shatters like crazy in F1 car racing, because it is designed this way to absorb as much impact as possible prior to glass fibre and carbon being used, paper and cardboard was used in similar ways, soaked in resin, built up in layers to create very hard impact surfaces, disposable fuel tanks were made in a similar fashion throughout the 50's and 60's - for the haters, consider a simple toilet roll tube of cardboard, stand on end an place a simple house brick on top, will it hold and ask yourself why, how does this work?
And of course the best way to see if it will work is to build a prototype and take it for a test drive . . . .Oh! that is what we are doing. Imagine that.
@@BuilderCreator hahaha image that - oh hang on, do i need a brain for this, or can i rent one - like you i do laugh at some folk, i'm sure there are wires not joined up somewhere, not that there's anything wrong in people not being able to do joined up thinking, but it does help in some instances
i was thinking the obvious choice to tie off the ends of the exhaust wrap was looking at you in the face with the stainless steel twist wire, clean and simples - project is coming on nicely, some nice plumbing too, that ceramic finish is sexy as well and very functional keeping heat down
RESPECT!
May I ask, what transmission did you use and did you use automatic with paddle shifting? I have a Cayman and wish it could have been 4wd
I’m sirprised he isn’t sunburned from all the bare hand welding.
Using the 4L60e transmission, which can be electronically controlled with paddle shifters.
Excelente conselho ao final do vídeo, você só saberá fazer a pergunta certa sobre algo que não conseguiu executar após tentar.
i'm only 20 yo but i think my grandchildren are the ones who will witness the final product of this project.
Subbed 🤠👍 interesting build
Thanks for the sub! I'll keep the interesting content coming.
hey i know this is an older vid and you may not see this but i was kinda lost on the fiber glass bit, i understand on applying it but i was wondering why did it turn red
I change the color on each layer so that it is easier to tell when sanding through. The red is an automotive paint to get that final hard, glossy surface.
@@BuilderCreator ah kk thanks so much, i was planning on building a project car when i get into automotive engeneering n as a side hobbie n your serise is by far the simplest way to actually go about making the body of a car
Jay, I hope that you have made enough money from your channel to pay for this project. It has been several years of labor excellent video series cannot wait to see the project on the road
Sadly, my costs WAY outpace my UA-cam earnings. I would likely need to get a few hundred thousand views per video to get my earnings to match my expenses. But, every view help! Thanks for following the channel.
OH WOW!!! This is awesome!!!
Will you be selling kits of the body and blue prints on the chassis
Not for this prototype, but it could lead to a second generation "perfected" model.
Great work / content mate 👍 👌 cheers from New Zealand 🇳🇿
This Lambo, would be an amazing follow-up ! Thanks
Getting stoked to see this roll! Gonna be a screamer with that engine.
really crap uninformative video
Wow credit to you I can totally understand your dedication . Just amazing!!

Endgegner- I had to look that one up. My ten word German vocabulary didn't include that. But, you are mistaken, the real "Endgegner" is my wife. ;)

What a great informative video Also like the snipe towards the end of the vid
I like that you were building your own Vector back in the 80's.
Thank you for making this channel and content. Amazing.
The tire/rim size to car looks ridiculous, car looks like a 4x4. Hope it's corrected in the build.
Just heard, Chip Foose has hanged himself in his back Yard.
I'm really curious about how your going to make it street legal or how would you register it and insure it and all of that
