Did you ever play with those little rockets as a kid, where you filled the rocket half with water, then pumped it up with something like a bicycle pump?
Thanks for an informative and well put together video. About 4 years ago I was quoting a similar type of job where 2 pieces of 1.5mm thick sheets were seam welded and a valve welded in on one of the edges. This was used as an expandable pillow that, in the flat, was slid into a sawn section of quarry rock. It was inflated under high pressure causing the cut to expand and separate the rock into a manageable size to handle. I'd love to see more of the shapes you have made👍
Very interesting, it is impressive how much lifting/splitting force can be generated by inflating relatively thin sheet metal. I'll continue to share my experiments with new shapes on here
You are such an artist Connor. There`s something very satisfying in decorative hydroforming. Thank you for your videos and persistence. I always wonder what you gonna come up with next. :) Bless you.
Please keep up your awesome work mate! I'm impressed how cool this technique is and how many things you can virtually do! Actually you inspired me a lot, I make furniture with wood and metal but I'm always been intrigued by stainless steel... I was just thinking these days what can I do (since I'm a novice tig welder too) and you have been the inspiration, that little spark that i needed. I thought that for the hydroforming procedure was required a much higher pressure, and apparently is easier then I thought... at least in terms of tools that are needed. I'm happy! Please, keep it up. 😊🤙🏼✌️
I worked at a place that made pressure tanks. You had to certify the welders for pressure, because it's much harder to have zero leaks under pressures much greater than a pressure washer can generate. Amazing video.
Very awesome tutorial, I agree the possibilities for this technique are immense. definitely going to dedicate some time to this eventually, keep it up!
Great video! Perfect timing too, since I recently showed your videos to a friend and he wanted to try it out and I told him you’d probably release a tutorial sometime soon… haha That was a great welding tip too… I struggle with perfectly straight lines and I’m still learning, so that angle iron guide trick looks like a great way to rest your hand/wrist. I’m definitely going to try that out!
i learned to Tig weld on aluminum with a thumb trigger. but i have Tig welded with a foot feed. i don't care for it. man thank you for your time making this video, i truly appreciate it, i know how long they take to film and edit. u gave me an idea how to make my own fenders and door panels for my 33 Ford Tuck. again, thank you..!
Can you draw annealed lines on the sheet metal with a blowtorch to guide crease formation in situations where the geometry allows for more than one outcome and you don't want it to be random?

Cool. The first time I heard about hydroforming metal was when the C5 Corvette debuted. Its frame rails were hydroformed and I always wondered how the process worked.
I was surprised by your statement suggesting those concerned about rust could use stainless. Have you tried this? I have messed around with DIY hydroforming, both pressure washer and grease gun techniques. I have never had a successful expansion in stainless, I have tried several different grades and thicknesses. I think it is because it work hardens so quickly. May I ask, what stainless have you tried? Did you find some trick to negate the work hardening?
Here's me using stainless: ua-cam.com/video/_rV4Jt5m-zs/v-deo.html It is 0.9mm thick, grade 304, and I treat it exactly the same as mild steel, which fortunately has worked well for me
05:40 you could place a small tube up the hole to speed up the draining significantly. No need for a blowtorch for draining. Not too expensive for you to try it. 👍
Collin Furze did this some years ago when he made a jet. Your TIG welding looks quite good. One can also use MIG for that but turn down the wire to an absolute minimum. Everything else would just be a waste of wire and make the result look bad.
For circles you would need to use thick steel mold, as the edges pull towards the centre, usually making a large dent. To make 2 domes I would make a sphere and cut it in half: ua-cam.com/video/6DvWDCmbPxs/v-deo.html
Yes it works with aluminium, and parts get easier to hydroform the larger they are. Because of its small volume, my hydroformed slingshot was able to take the full 90 bar of my pressure washer
It’s hardly dangerous when you use water. That’s why pressure testing of vessels is done with liquids that cannot compress. If you pumped it up with air that is compressible,then it would be dangerous. Generally what happens is you get a tiny leak on the weld seam and you can no longer build pressure . It ends with a whimper ,no bang…
I don't have a gauge, but the pieces I've done have ruptured before reaching 90 Bar. I also inflate some pieces with air pressure using 100 psi or less. I use 1mm thick steel, so going thicker may need more pressure
What pressure do I need to mold 1.2mm thick stainless steel? Does it vary depending on the way you want to achieve it? My intention is to make a dome 53cm in diameter and 13cm high.
A small 90 bar pressure washer would still work, to make a dome you could try welding a strong ring around the edge, to help stop large buckles forming
When i saw that before you cut the tube off i thought that could be a mini boiler tank,. Have you tried making a lasgana style. Like to sealed tanks right beside each other. It could be a apparatus for electrochemical expirements. Oh jolly
We did a dome 3600 diameter 5mm steel, when the weld failed at about 250 PSI a jet of water blew out the wall of a nearby portacom office, smashed the windows and flipped the furniture inside upside down. There was no air, this was a result of the small amount of spring in the steel. If a person had been standing in front of it I think it would be worse than getting hit with a sledge hammer.
I loosen the screw fitting connecting the hose to the pressure washer to let the small amount of air inside escape. Larger pieces are filled completely with water, to remove the air before adding more pressure.
haha what a great video, It's interesting to know how easy this can be and your explanations throughout were clear and to the point it was awesome you just let it break as i really wanted to see that when you mentioned it, not as powerful as expected. Loved the little warp out!
Nice work! I watched your videos with enthusiasm. May I ask you what is the sheet thickness you use and what is the material specification? Is that standard DC01 sheet or some deep-drawing material ?? Last question.. I am thinking about copper or brass sheet with soldered joints instead of welded . Did you happen to try as well ? thx
Thank you, I use standard 1mm mild steel sheet. Brass with brazed edges should work just as well as steel, copper and solder could work if the joints are able to cope with the movement and pressure. I haven't tried them yet, but they would look great polished up
I thought you were going to use some kind of mold and specialised forming compressor. Not very precise, but still very usefull. BTW. that edge welding was very satisfiying to watch.
You can still inflate metal with air (I call it Aeroforming), it is just more dangerous with potentially explosive pressure releases, I only use a limited pressure under 100psi
Your videos are really enlightening. Have you ever worked with aluminum sheet? Specifically 6061-T6 about 1.5mm thickness? Or is aluminum just too brittle? I have a project wih aluminum tubing that requires a minimal amount of expansion.
Thanks, a aluminium test piece I made did have brittle welds that cracked, but annealing could help with flexibility. Tube may be difficult to inflate as it already has a circular cross section, but may be possible with strong welds and enough pressure. I know its common to form tube in industry with complex molds and high pressure.
Awesome work:) Your TIG weld looks great! Would you like to share your settings for your welding machine? Especially the plus frequency and range is something I unfortunately never worked with:( Greetings from Germany and thanks a lot.
Thank you, my typical weld settings can be seen at 1:55 I'm not sure of the exact numbers as the machine's display doesn't show them. I found my preferred settings by welding lots of scraps and comparing, then putting pencil marks next to the dials.
The basic principles will be the same, you will need either a powerful pressure washer or a hydraulic pump. Also the weight and volume of water needs to be accounted for, and set up on soft ground so you can dig a shallow hole for it to sit in
C.H. You R the "Cost Effective Hydroforming Wisperer"... Just saying. Thank you for this video. I shall will use this new skill to save hundred$ on a Dry Sump Oil Tank. Who needs a 6-axis mill? Cheers.
I normally use 1mm thick steel, here's how to make a sphere: Take the diameter you want and multiply by Pi to get the circumference, divide this by 8 to draw an octagon. You can then use this drawing to find the dimensions of the two cones and cylinder that make up the sphere. Cone templates: www.blocklayer.com/cone-patterns.aspx
@@ConnorHolland hi again... I had my first success after two failures using stainless steel (too hard) For the 1mm thickness, I had to use mild steel as you advised in another conversation we had. . Have you tried it with stainless steel?
It should be possible with enough experience welding aluminium. If I need a mirror finish I use stainless steel, as its stronger and welds better than aluminium
See my video on Hydroforming a sphere, here are the dimensions of that ball: (I used this to make cone templates: www.blocklayer.com/cone-patterns.aspx , (Top Width 80mm, Base width 187mm, Height 57mm) The 2 discs are 80mm in diameter, and the cylinder is H 66.7mm x W 587.5mm) To get a larger ball, you can use maths to scale up the dimensions.
It's basically the same precautions you would take when cleaning using a pressure washer (avoid touching the jet), and make sure to expel any air trapped inside the workpiece, which can cause more energetic ruptures
The finished shape depends most on the shape of the outer edges. Welding, clamping or using a steel mold can affect how a shape inflates, if they are strong enough to resist the large force acting on them.
Wow something I never thought of! I like how you calmly do the impossible!
Great idea. You mentioned minimizing trapped air, but it would be good to emphasize how this reduces the chance of a dangerous explosive weld failure
Yes, see my latest video for a demonstration of what happens when there's trapped air

Wow niiice. So now all we need is a CAD/FEA program that can predict the stretch and then produce the templates, then pump them up for a perfect part.
Well this is quite groovy I must say. Impressive creativity
Can you draw annealed lines on the sheet metal with a blowtorch to guide crease formation in situations where the geometry allows for more than one outcome and you don't want it to be random?
That could work, it may be more effective to get the lines red hot and use compressed air (under 100 psi) to inflate

thats some fine metalwork
05:40 you could place a small tube up the hole to speed up the draining significantly. No need for a blowtorch for draining. Not too expensive for you to try it. 👍
Yes a straw also works, it helps get air back inside to let the water flow out
THAT'S A GOOD WAY TO BUILD A GAS TANK.
Collin Furze did this some years ago when he made a jet.
Your TIG welding looks quite good. One can also use MIG for that but turn down the wire to an absolute minimum. Everything else would just be a waste of wire and make the result look bad.
Nothing beats TIG in my opinion, except maybe robots and lasers, but I cant afford those yet
Super brilliant idea.
Can you do it with a circular piece so you can create two shallow domes?
For circles you would need to use thick steel mold, as the edges pull towards the centre, usually making a large dent. To make 2 domes I would make a sphere and cut it in half: ua-cam.com/video/6DvWDCmbPxs/v-deo.html
Beautiful ingenuity.😎very cool
Awesome vid! More would be appreciated.
Would have been nice to also talk about the plug you insert to test the piece.
Adding a Wooden Mold Frame to Expand into might be one of the ways to expand the possibilities of Shapes to squeeze into!
I'll like to try mold making using steel, as wood could break due to the huge force involved
Does this work with aluminum, and how does the pressure scale with the vol of the part (linear?)
Yes it works with aluminium, and parts get easier to hydroform the larger they are. Because of its small volume, my hydroformed slingshot was able to take the full 90 bar of my pressure washer
Great video well done!xx
Brilliant video mate. New subscriber ✌🏻
I built an expansion chamber like this to save doing loads of pie cuts . It leaked like a sprinkler showing my faulty welds in the seams.
Lovely! You really are bringing this technique to "the common man" so to speak. It's dangerous, yes, but all metalworking is.

I don't have a gauge, but the pieces I've done have ruptured before reaching 90 Bar. I also inflate some pieces with air pressure using 100 psi or less. I use 1mm thick steel, so going thicker may need more pressure
Interesting, liked to see how you made the round balls 🤔
What pressure do I need to mold 1.2mm thick stainless steel?
Does it vary depending on the way you want to achieve it?
My intention is to make a dome 53cm in diameter and 13cm high.
Maybe you can recommend a channel or video to see hydroforming machines.
A small 90 bar pressure washer would still work, to make a dome you could try welding a strong ring around the edge, to help stop large buckles forming
Talented young man
Very cool video, what a nice skill to have. I'd love to try & make fenders and/or gas tanks for motorcycles with this method. Someday!
Great idea! You should try welding some Platonic solids and try to inflate them to see how spherical it gets

Hi nice work
I have a question
How much pressure I need to forming sheetmetal size D 2000mm 4mm of thickness
I'm afraid I don't know the exact pressures and haven't tried hydroforming 4mm thick sheet, but it should be possible with a powerful pressure washer
@@ConnorHolland thanks👍
Hi how are you
I finished my hydr... Machine for sheet elliptical size 2.5x1.86 meter 4mm I'm happy for result 50 bar
very good idea and demo
How did you let out the air? By filling without preassure and a not tight fitting?
That's right, at 4:38 I'm pointing at the air bubbles escaping
We did a dome 3600 diameter 5mm steel, when the weld failed at about 250 PSI a jet of water blew out the wall of a nearby portacom office, smashed the windows and flipped the furniture inside upside down. There was no air, this was a result of the small amount of spring in the steel. If a person had been standing in front of it I think it would be worse than getting hit with a sledge hammer.
How come you don’t need a separate valve to allow the air to go? A lot of research I have done say that it’s dangerous.
I loosen the screw fitting connecting the hose to the pressure washer to let the small amount of air inside escape. Larger pieces are filled completely with water, to remove the air before adding more pressure.

Saludos amigo que material usas y cuál es el calibre adecuado muchas gracias
Do you need to use gas (e.g. Argon) while TIG welding the sheets together without filler? Or also no gas is ok?
Shielding gas is always needed with TIG to prevent oxygen causing porosity in the weld, among other reasons
Great video!!

What are the safety concerns with hydroforming that one should be aware besides using eye protection gear?
It's basically the same precautions you would take when cleaning using a pressure washer (avoid touching the jet), and make sure to expel any air trapped inside the workpiece, which can cause more energetic ruptures
Is this also possible with 3mm v4a Stainlesssteel?
Yes I think it is possible, a more powerful pressure washer (>90 bar) would help
@@ConnorHolland thanks for the Information. Then my 180bar PW will do
Hey there, great video ❤, question can you determine the shape you create by scribing a pattern onto the flat sheet?
The finished shape depends most on the shape of the outer edges. Welding, clamping or using a steel mold can affect how a shape inflates, if they are strong enough to resist the large force acting on them.
Great video thanks!
