  • Removing dents with hammer and dolly can cause the oil can effect. Means the material got streched and there's now too much. With heating up to red hot, hammering gently flat and quenching you can shrink it again.

    This is a Panel Beaters method of shrinking steel, however don't use a carburizing flame as it will introduce carbon to the metal always use a normal flame. Also practice the skills of actualy using a hammer and dolly otherwise you will find that instead of shrinking the metal you are stretching it and chasing it all over the panel. The art of shrinking steel is usually learned after many hours of learning how to shape and work steel cold.

    1. A little too much heat. You want your heat affected zone to be as small and controlled as possible, it’s better to go until the color BARELY starts to change (or not at all.) Then if you need more shrinkage do it again.
    2. Quenching or blasting air will cause a more abrupt change in temperature, therefore shrinking it even more, again making it less controllable.
    3. Hammer on dolly stretches the metal back out, so ideally you’d only shrink it just enough so that you can strike off dolly to straighten it out. The fact that he was hitting on dolly so hard shows he over-shrunk it.
    Overall good work. It got the job done, and with a skim coat of body filler it’ll be perfectly fine.

      I don’t know anything about whatever this video is, but I do know a thing or two about cameras, so just to play devil’s advocate real quick, the way your eye perceive brightness is different than how a camera does. Specifically a camera has a much smaller dynamic range than the human eye, so if something is blown out white for a camera, it’s quite possible that it wouldn’t be so bright to a human. It all depends on the camera’s dynamic range, and what the brightness of the correctly exposed parts of the image is.
      He still may have been too hot I’m not saying you are wrong, just pointing out it’d be very difficult to tell from a video.

  • @derBenIsPlaying
    @derBenIsPlaying 2 місяці тому +2

    Here's what he's doing: He's slightly smelting the metal to hammer it down to create a small indent. This means the material is pushed downwards, and on the edges, the material is pulled into towards that "crater". By hammering it flat you even it out again, but the stress remains, as the material is still pulled towards the indent, the indent is just hammered flat but the internal crystaline structure of the metal is all over the place.
    This causes a LOT of stress in the material, and stiffens it. So you are trading a stiffer, less flexible metal structure for the fact that it is now under constant stress in those parts. And any movement, even small deformation or vibrations or tensile actions, cause microscopic stress deformations that eventually turn into ruptures.
    You create a less wobbly structure,which has lost most of its flexibility, not very good.
    A better way would have been to weld a reinforcement on it, or use a metal roller tool to roll grooves into the material, preferably in a "X" shape, which is much more gentle on the material than this heat + physical deformation.
    If you ever see a metal sheet with an "X" or other shape indented into it, the reason is the same - to reduce the flexing, without compromising the crystaline structure.
    But heat + hitting it is a very harsh and hard change, avoid doing this.

He talked about guys who could take a sheet of flat steel, and with ball peen or other hammer and dolly, form the metal into any complex shape needed to repair the plane and they did this within real time, hours, not days, no heavy machines. This was all done just to get the birds back in the air. That's my memory of what he said. If there is anyone else out there that can verify that's what happened, kudos to you.

    • @PrometheusEpimetheus
      @PrometheusEpimetheus Рік тому +4

      When you heat up metal and cool it quickly, it makes the metal harder and tenser. Add on the hammering and you're both speeding up the process and directing it. Basically what he's doing is taking the "loose material" that's letting it bend and adding tension to it so it pulls itself taut.
      Not a good idea for anything like the frame as it can structurally compromise the metal (makes it brittle, less bendy) but for panel work it's perfect.
      As for why its loose? Could be a rough fit/weld at factory, someone could have dinged it, heat expansion and cooling for a couple decades, etc.
      Fun fact: if you heat material and let it cool down by itself, it can actually make it softer depending on the metal in question.

    • @thewolfin
      @thewolfin Рік тому +6

      Look up the phase diagram for steel. Heating and quenching quickly will increase the hardness and decrease ductility, making the metal harder, but more brittle. The steel's crystal lattice is affected, which changes the density of the material. In this case MM uses that to his advantage, making the heated/cooled spots contract in order to cure the "oil can" effect.
      Slow heating + slow cooling can have the opposite effect, making the metal softer and more ductile, a process referred to as annealing.

      Still missing one detail. Low freq sound comes from large length. Putting hardened spots cuts length, and builds a high pass filter, blocking low freqs. The narrower spots reduces length and makes higher freqs ( if any ).
      Sometimes you either dislike low tune freqs, and prefer higher freqs.
      In other case, some low freq can be a resonance point with an other element, and be either a resonating element, or amplify an other noise. It can either harm to the structure, or a discomfort people around.
      The hard point can also be seen as a resistive element, or, a pillar blocking propagation.
      Most answers here are from metallurgy. But there are many things to say in the frequency domain, sound, signal treatment , wave propagation ( 12 sides of the same dice ).
      Metallurgy was a mean. We don't have the purpose, but it's probably frequency related.

    Its not only the hardening that makes this plate stop doing that. What is actually happening here is you are deforming the metal while its still hot, allowing its crystal structure to deform without damage. Then, when its as you want you cool it down rapidly, freezing the crystal in its place, so all the stresses that were in it previously get discipated. Not only that but you are also deforming the metal by heating it, witch introduces structural stability in the metal.

      Makes sense, heating makes the molecules shrink more on 1 side than the other. Heating the outside surface would mean it slightly warps to the outside and makes the molecules on the outside more tense. Which could mean you cant push it in anymore. Oil canning like in this video is probably because the metal expanded just a tad from working the material. Shrinking towards the other side is the solution.
