That's awesome! I really like how you made it diagonally, or Dragon Alley!

[@muerto2107]

I love that grinder!

[@connieolmstead2237]

You made that look so easy! But what if you don’t have a roller for the edges?

[@carolmcmillen7995]

Where could I get one of the rollers? To roll the metal. I love it. Ty for sharing

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

The early cast iron version come up for sale every once in awhile on eBay !! And the harbor freight company and others sell a more modern version!! Thanks

The weathers great here today in Northland NZ

How did you flatten the corrugated metal? I have coated R-rib scraps I want to use, but they are .26 gauge and I think I'll have to beat it flat with a sledge hammer. Suggestions appreciated!

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

Greetings Alan I just put on my old work boots and stomp on the ribs !!! Thanks

[@robertcornelius3514]

That is really cool. I have a similar crimper just lying around and now I will blow the dust off it and start making pigs.

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

Absolutely!!! And thanks

[@michellworkman3804]

What is that tool? You’re using to crease around the outside of the pig after you got it cut out

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

It’s called a bead roller !! Thanks

[@arbuckleoakshomestead6800]

I'd like to make a chicken

[@codyray3757]

[@PainterD54]

When cutting steel like that with a tin snips, wear gloves. You'll stop the bleeding before it starts!

[@sfuqua68]

What tools are you’ll using to cut with? Tin snips?

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

Yes I use a medium master brand tin snip most hardware stores carry them . Thanks for watching

[@shareemartin9055]

What are your cutters called again?

[@tishlamb13]

What can you use if you don't have a machine to do the edges?

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

From my experience this is the only way ,but There could be something out there I haven’t seen.

[@Thatcntrygirl1]

Can you tell me what brand and where you got your bead roller tool please

[@builtfromscrapwithjoet8602]

I found this on a salvage job, but you can pick one up at any harbor freight. The ones I use are all vintage.
