    I am never disappointed whenever I watch one of your videos. Informative, compressed just enough to keep things flowing smoothly and interestingly (ie, the way you move through the boring shit in fast motion where others leave in the part where they do things like moving parts around or turn every damned screw, beginning to end. It's very much appreciated that you don't). I like the incorporation of the old footage, and the brilliantly dry and sometimes dark sense of humor is like the cherry on the sundae! I salute you, Sir! You are one of life's winners. Congratulations and continued success!

    Tony...as a youth my father owned an Ornamental Wrought Iron Shop. He purchased a Hossfeld Bender with a gob of Dies. He mounted it on a Custom Stand he Built for it. What was really cool was he Fashioned it to a Hydraulic Ram & Electric Pump! With just the Pull-of-a-Lever much of the tedious Labor was removed. Thanks Dad!

    It's nice to watch a craftsman at work. What some people may not realize is the hours you have devoted to your craft. In any craft, the fun only begins after lots of research, trial and error, and a ton of devotion. So many young people today, are oblivious to the sacrifices of a true craftsman. Thanks for the video.

Oxyacetylene to marry things up, at the end. For me, pickling is for herring. ;-)

      Hey Adam -- yep, shop-made. Google "hossfeld bender plans", there are a ton out there.
      FYI, since I'd wager you'd probably be bending some big stuff, the hydraulics are an add-on, just
      a cylinder that does the pushing. Basic machine is the same.

    The demonstration of use of the Hossfeld reminds me of the antique bending tool I kept in my toolbox during my decade and a half career as a spring maker. Although it could be held in one hand, thereby looking like a toy version of the Hossfeld, it was perfect for making forms out of music wire up to .125". The forms would then be mounted to sliding tool holders with the form tools to maintain squareness, ensure consistent tool engagement or part clearance. I was very hesitant to use the bender due to it's 50's manufacture date, but it became so useful I never regretted putting it to use.

      Oddly enough it doesn't sound like clipping.

      We used to have a pond then one year the pond froze so hard that when the geese flew south they took the pond with them.

    Really enjoy your videos. I find myself laughing a little to loud at your sense of humor, which gives away that I am not working. Sounds like I am listening to Alan Alda.

    Hey don't apologize for the voice over part... I found it the best part of the video. It's better quality sound, it's edited to smoothness, gets right to the point, whereas the live audio scenes tend to ramble or drag on, (Please don't take offense, I'm just trying to offer an individual viewer's perception). One of the reasons that Jimmy DiResta's videos are so addictive is because of the style, with voice overs that get right to the point. Content-wise, great stuff! I'd love to sit and watch all the videos you could come up with on metal working.

    I don't know how that many people could give it a thumbs down.
    I have a Hossfeld copy also that I was able to set up a hydraulic RAM and bend tubing with it. Your makeshift dies are very cool
    I'd love to see more videos like this.

    First class and full of fun. Love the old music, horn rich... Great info on the bender types and functions. Funny too because of needing to compound bend 3/8" 01 in fairly tight radii...between you and Marv, I may have it fingered out. Thanks for all the fun Tony, always grateful for your vids!! ~PJ
