I'm going to repeat what most people are expressing. Your channel, message, delivery, enthusiasm, humbleness, and willingness to share your talents is invaluable! Great camera work and editing cannot be overlooked. Thank you Karl and Kristina... you bring a smile to many faces when they see a Make It Kustom video has been published. Cheers Mike!
Actually it’s Karl with a K and Kristina? Also with a K
-Karl, with a K, in MICHIGAN.
@@karlscribner7436 thanks Carl lol
Outstanding in all aspects mentioned, plus the sound quality was beyond compare. Total shocker for my first visit to your site. Looking forward to many future visits. Thank you K and K.
If you can ever do without you metal maid keeping your shop clean I could use her service. I expect a price break though, she can leave her jewellers loop at home. No Karl, I know you don't do it.
Do you know anyone that wants to buy a bike?
It has no seat or handlebars.
It's for someone that lost their ass and doesn't know which way to turn. 😂
I was going to write some thing but the above say's it all
Ditto.
I love your content. What I appreciate most is you not editing out mistakes. We all learn from mistakes and seeing a competent person make one and adapt and move on is a hugely positive message. Keep doing what your doing.
I really appreciate that too, I just loved it and made me feel better, that actually it's normal to loose a little concentration, thank you for this comment
I use a greased threaded rod through the center to compress them together. Even strong enough to dimple 3mm steel.
Its a must when dimpling on the car when you can't fit the car in your shop press
"when you can't fit the car in your shop press" 😁🤣🤣
When I make one, I will probably do it this way.
if you put the flange piece that youre going to grind on to the shaft and start grinding it will begin to spin....now its - its own lathe!
get her spinning and hold your grinder hand steady .
the threaded rod allows you to double nut/lock the flanged piece from jumping up / around.
once youve done it for a few minutes it all makes sense.
the grinder spins the piece and grinds all at the same time and because power is lost to spinning the grinding doesnt dig in very deep....
you could also weld first and put it in a drill then mount the drill in a vise.
the cool part about making your own is you can make both pieces with steps in diameter to do 2 different hole sizes in 1 tool or add
a crease into the flange/dimple
make diamond or star or square etc dimple dies.
time is cheap when its mine for me....lol
@@kazzTrismus There is another aspect that can be brought in here. make the the bottom and top piece to fit perfectly into one another without any clearance for the material thickness you want to dimple. ie. zero clearance. then make a few washers, each washer to be the thickness of the various sizes of plate you want to dimple. Then you just insert the relevant washer to match the material you want to punch. The washer will give you the relevant clearance needed.
@@ishsiriram8286 leave the clearance...as washers will only make space in 1 direction..
If doing/wanting a more complex shape than a cone, precision fitting reduces the range of material thickness.
details/features would require precision fitting on 2 axis at least.
Too tight will = shear depending on design
"The joy of making it" THATS what a lot of people are missing.
It's great to see a younger tradesman making his own tools. I love making my own tools. Apart from the satisfaction you can incorporate all the best features.
Great job and keep inspiring others to create.
"I don't want excuses!..." the way to go! Thanks for all the useful tips! What is better than making it your own...
You and your wife, by the way the unsung hero of these videos, are making some of THE best UA-cam content out there. Just in case you didn't already know! Can't wait to see what's next and hope your move goes well!
The best part of this channel for me is ; the showing of how to get results using cheaper , homemade, and ways to save cash by building your own fabrication tools. Professional equipment is out of the reach for the majority of people. Thanks for the videos 👍🏿
Nicely done.... I'm going have to stop watching you! You make shit I want to make and I got enough on my plate now as it is. Hahaha. Love it. Putting in the flaws and mistakes makes you real. Hats off to another fantastic video. Now to go fine me some dimple die material...congrats on the new shop. Looks nice and bright. A few videos on the move and setup be nice. Think few of us would enjoy that.
Good to see comments from one legend to another, love ya work Fitzee & Karl!!!
I'll look forward to your take/video on this as well Fitzee LOL
Fitzee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to you both. No shit. Your videos keep me sain.
Indeed we would, Karl and Fitzee, my 2 fav metal bangers.
Back when i first started out, the old timers would share information for nothing, except maybe to make you feel like a newbie. I guess it made them feel smarter. Im glad to see things have changed and sharing information is just needed. Thx for sharing…….
For a young man, you are very talented. I'm sure before you have all the tools you have now, you had to make a lot of them before buying them. You would also make a great metal teacher. Great video.
Japhands are magic hands. Doesn't matter what you do, when it's done it's beautiful.
very creative, very helpful. And video crew does a fantastic job capturing it all. She deserves a super hug. Love your channel. The two of you make it all happen in such a classy way. Educational, entertaining, always. Thom
I have never needed a dimple die before, and I don't think I ever will, But I want to make one now just to say I did! I preach on my channel that you have to think outside of the box and get creative. This is creativity and hot rodding at its core. Awesome!
It's TOOL TIME, unlike Tim Taylor, your stuff up didn't end in disaster 😆😆😆
Very clever 👍👍👍
Ough ough ough!
TEE SHIRT QUOTE: "NO EXCUSES! THERE'S ALWAYS A WAY!" 🤣😂😁👍
It’s hard to show mistakes, I know from experience. 🤣 It’s refreshing to see the honestly and realism when making something yourself. It doesn’t always go as planned. Nice work! 🙌🏼
how simple and quick to make ,making your own tools is cool as ,thanks a bunch ,you make people like me just get up and do it
I absolutely love watching your videos. You talk and act just like we are working along side you, and not like your above anyone. Thank you for that. You are a super talented man. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Can't wait for the next video.
This is the best part about outfitting your shop/garage with fabrication tools. You get to the point where you need a tool or part for your build and realize its quicker and easier to just make it how you want it then to shop around and wait for shipping etc. I think more project car builders should invest in this stuff and learn how to use it, very satisfying! 👍
Check out Fab Rats.
I am relieved that I am not the only one making those mistakes. Great job.
They don't give the commercial dimple dies away, as I'm sure you already know. This is a big help Karl, thanks.
love seeing the mistakes as well, make you far more relatable than the guys who edit everything in a way to make them look perfect.. keep up the great work, you are very inspiring
great vid. two things I like... your humility and your usage of common tools.
I learn more in one of your videos than going to a school for a whole semester! Simply explained and to the point! Love these ideas!
Karl, thank you again for sharing how to make things with simple tools. The knowledge you share is invaluable!
I like that you didn't edit out the mistakes and issues you came into on this simple project. Subscribed because I think you have good vibes and positive energy. Keep it up!
Yes! A Big Shout to The one and only Mister Rick Farmer... Extraordinaire! Must Great to have him on your team!
Great video just like the rest of them you have done. I'm 60 yrs old and have been making my own tools when needed, and have learned a lot from you. Thank you and keep on keeping on.
I appreciate the fact that you did not edit out mistakes... I do stupid stuff all the time, but people only see the finish product and say how great they think it is. I can't help but think to myself, if they only knew how often I have to fix little mistakes that they never see. Keep that in your content, it really makes you more relatable.
While I consider myself a bit of a hobbyist fabricator, I watch your videos and am blown away by your abilities. Half of the stuff I probably won’t be able to do or even need, but damn is it fun to watch! Great job as usual
Coming from a farming background, we always made the tools we didn't have.
I never thought of making dimple dies though! I've been trying to get someone to lathe up a set but might give this a go.
Australian prices would probably make it cheaper to buy a set than to buy the raw stock though.
Thank you for all of the video episodes thus far! I’m learning a ton! You are a true Master and an artist!
Another awesome video. Love watching people make tools as well as metal working techniques explained for the common man just getting started
Perfect, I love making my own tools for a job, so satisfying.
I've never done any kind of body work but after watching all your videos. You got me want to go mess with this old 82 MC I've got at the farm.
Don't sweat it bro making mistakes and working through them is real life. I love that you are so real on your channel it is refreshing!
As always I get excited when a new video is posted! Didn’t think it was possible for me to gain more respect for you (at the top already) but you laughing at yourself for a mistake is rare to see, an admirable trait IMO! Thanks again for doing this and sharing to us.
I am Impressed, Glad I found your channel. Very down to earth, please stay this way. Do not change a thing.
So great, I appreciate that you did not edit out the mistakes, it makes it easier to build knowing I will screw it up and it's still ok.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Thanks this video is a real savior.
WOW,you make everything you do look easy to build at home for all us doit yourselfers,well done,thank you Christina for all your camera work to show how Karl does his work so we can clearly see how it's done and copy some of what he builds 🏁👀
Awesome video today Really enjoyed it from Melbourne Australia. 🇦🇺
love your hands on real world content
You’re not an idiot. We all make goofs. Love your attitude and content! Keep up the good work for us. Gives me motivation and has become a part of my day. ✌🏼
thank you for showing how to do it without a lathe. we need more fabrication videos like that showing people that simple tools can do the job, and that perfection is often not necessary.
Best demonstration for homemade dimple dies that I have seen yet appreciate it
Awesome. Just Awesome! Love your real life approach to the work, the videos, and not "hiding" it when you "make" a mistake!!!
Thank you so much. I'm building a peddle car for my grand daughter and now I can do some dimple work. Because it's small I spun the rear fenders on the lathe. Next I need to learn how to make some body moldings. My son bought me a bead roller set and shrinker stretchers.
Christina is the war correspondent of UA-cam videographers. You moved the work to direct the sparks away. . .she dives with the camera directly into the line of fire.
Simple dimple! The way you do and explain, everything is excellent! I want to make a dimple die, and I don't even need one! 😄
Love the honesty in this vid....a small mistake (that we have all made) emphasised and rectified..mistakes and honesty very good for the algorithm..THIS makes this channel...
hello, thanks for the lecture and the practical lesson
Respect to Christina’s videography. Top job.
Learning something new is rewarding. You teaching Your experience is awesome! THANKS
I have your exact vice, right down the missing pipe jaws. It's an awesome bit of kit, and it was cheap. I bought mine over 40 years ago and it must have travelled over 1 million kilometres around and across Australia within me in the back of my vehicles. Yours is the only other one that I have seen. Love your content. Greg
If you can get ahold of some thin latex sheeting or thin flexible plastic to sacrifice between the workpiece and the die, your finish comes out really well even if there are some blemishes in the tool surface. Really cool innovation you guys!
Awesome work… I have been trying to find a small dimple die for the blind screws for door latches. Having watched this I’m thinking I might just go make my own. Thank you for the inspiration!
I do love every single video that you guys provide to us...lots of knowlodge and tecnique that make all easy!God bless u all
Pablo De Oliveira
That was another great tool that you made it look easy. I’m glad people are noticing you on UA-cam. Good things could not happen to a better guy. You are awesome and your videos are fun to watch. Keep them coming!
Found your channel recently and I'm loving the content - and your delivery. Early in the video you said (paraphrasing) "There's always a way with simple tools, always" - something I have to remind myself *often* when I'm bemoaning a lack of tools (and, to be clear, there's a small lathe and a Bridgeport sitting in my shop!); I try to remind myself that people have been making accurate, complex, close tolerance parts, for waaaay longer than CNC has been around!
Great content as always! Really enjoy your approach and the way you deliver this awesome information. Fantastic to see the new shop happening as well!
carl and christina what a team these videos are so in formative and well shot thank you so much for the top quality content , you know your talented when fitzee gives you respect
For a young dude you are really the shit. I grew up like you with more time than money. My father got me a job working with him in a steel fabrication shop. and the rest was history. I love making my own tools!! Thanks for these simple tools that make a job look so more professional.
Mr fisher wodup, inspired by ur works, good stuff, marcus Cape town South africa 🌍
Man that is awesome! Incredible work. I already have a full set of round dimple dies but I’m thinking I might use the same concept and make some square and maybe triangle ones. Thanks for the inspiration!
You are NOT an idot 😎
Your teaching is GREAT 👍
great video ....Being a retired electrical contractor I had several knock out punch set laying around sooo I took one set and had the back side of the cutters beveled to 45 degrees. Now I take one punch and knock out the hole and then take the next size up and use the back beveled side of the die to make the dimple....a two step process but cheaper than going out and buying the one step dies and I have a set from about 7/8" to 2 1/2" dimple dies.....like making your tools
Something I've always wanted. Thank yo so much
I like watching your videos you sharing your knowledge helping that is poor boys I've been working on my car with some serious rust damage your videos will help me out a lot with the equipment I have and I haven't used them many years thanks
Thanks Karl for the great video.I enjoy all of them. Your a true craftsman and your skills are fantastic.Your new shop looks great it will be nice when you get it organized the way you want it.Thank you for sharing Karl and keep up the great work.
No excuses, you can figure it out. Best advise I've heard in a long time!👊🏻
This is one of the most valuable channels on here .
Yet again another video that doesn’t disappoint. From a guy just tryin to learn cool stuff your channel is definately a first place scenario. I / we are grateful for everything you video and demonstrate . Currently building a van like your boogie van with a bit of a twist and every video you have gives knowledge and insipiration. Thanks again
Did that deburring tool give anyone else chills when listening ? Oh OK, only me? Love the channel and your content.
Ingenious!! That is a great idea! Thanks, and thanks for showing us your mistake and how you fixed it. Glad to know I'm not the only one who makes those kind of mistakes. Even happens to the best.
I do enjoy seeing others make there own tool I made mold and die for sheet metal leaves and flowers
We had a Metal Supermarket here in Albuquerque, but 3 guys went together to expand it and for some reason it never reopened. Really miss it. I really enjoy your video's, and it's refreshing to see you admit if something went wrong...shows us we are not perfect.
Good show keep it up helping young people learn how to do this stuff keep the art alive
Awesome channel, with perfect editing and perfect volume mixing! 👏👏👏 Thank you so much! 😉😉
Love, Love, Love the making your own tools videos. Achievable ideas for the average guy with basic tools.
I've always had a fondness for dimple died panels. Looking at the prices for premade dies has always kept me away. I had never even thought about making my own so cheap and effectively. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much, one of the best teachers ever!
No words truley spoken ! Looks Awesome ! What a tool made by an expert its brilliant buddy
I was wondering how the move was going, glad to see the new shop cameo. Thanks for the continued content, I love how you showed using "everyman" tools versus the machines most might not have. Cheers from Dallas Tx.
i needed a small one not too long ago and didnt feel like machining one so i made it out of a truck balljoint. worked great
Wow dude! You’re clearly a master of your art. Loved learning this process and will be trying it soon.
I absolutely love it when someone says to them self “how much do they want for that? Nope I’ll make it myself” great videos!
Always enjoy watching you work Carl...i also enjoy learning from you...
Can’t believe I’ve never found this channel before today. So glad I did
Can't get enough of these videos thanks for all the content boys and girls at M.I.K.
Only recently found this channel along with Fitzee you guys are teaching me loads! I only bodge at this stuff, been playing (as a hobby) with cars for years, but after watching you guys I've jumped in and started my own channel, you'll recognize what I have learned from you in it :). Keep up the videos, I love them...
Another great tool that when you need it you really need it.
Our original ones, 3" dia., were made out of dried Oak. Like you said you use what you have, everyone had different raw materials and tools to make your tools.
Sometimes it hurts watching you as Being a retires machinist I'm use to all the big boy tools like mills, lathes, presses, benders, surface grinders and all.
Thanks for sharing.
You are an awesome presenter. You explain everything very well. And when you couple that with great attentive videography by your helper (Kistine?), it makes for a very useful and illustrative video. I've learned a ton from you and looking forward to learning further. Its very encouraging to see you make stuff. I feel like people in US don't make our own custom stuff enough. The satisfaction of making things yourself is worth it! Thank you for your content, keep it going!
You have a" good eye" Mr.
Your enthusiasm and passion is obvious. Yes,I subscribed.
MORE HOME MADE TOOL VIDEOS!!!! Most (if not all!) your viewers are like me :hobby guys who can't afford to buy all the specialty tools... reminds me of a old gunsmith I used to know, in that world (at least back when) making ALL of your tools was standard fare..
We really appreciate your knowledge and you inspire all of us. Thank you
In regards to the scarcity of 19 gauge sheet metal:
Wray Schelin mentioned finding a supplier for 19 gauge sheet metal and was able to stock up on the stuff. His video was about 8 months ago titled, Metal Shaping for Beginners: Shrinking With a Helve Hammer.
I recall you mentioned the 19 gauge shortage in a recent video I watched and several other UA-cam builders have found the same shortage in their areas. A place just outside of Langley was cold rolling 18ga to 19ga for a restoration that was very fussy. Their rollers were capable of doing 30 inch but their age showed some distortion at the edges so 24 inch was settled on as the max width.
The hydraulic roller press was apparently from one of Boeing's auctions in Washington state. At one of their auctions I ended up with a project to rebuild a hot dimpler for aerodynamic aircraft riveting. Industrial auctions can be interesting with crazy expensive mixed in with nearly free deals. A $100usd hot dimpler was nearly free. Just thought I'd mention that. A great way to bring occasional use equipment into your shop that you normally wouldn't have considered buying.
Giving me so many idea for when my new shop is built cant wait to start working on the trucks again!!!!
That's bad ass I never had enough of a need to buy a dimple die but I can find a need to build one
Literally every one of your videos is excellent
