      You beat me to it. If this was someones first time watching a video. You'd think he was wearing a wig. As someone who's been balled since his 20s, I love it. Let that shit flow dude!

    @37FordGuy 5 місяців тому +4

    A further comment. You could easily incorporate the lower die from the previous tool so this works as a stretcher… take the concept a step further and incorporate your shrinking dies from the tool before into the upper die holder with a removable handle- suddenly you have created a 17 in one tool with endless possibilities. Rock on man - this tooling series is wicked. Thank you

  • @funkinflugen
    @funkinflugen 5 місяців тому +6

    I've loved following your work...but this DIY TOOL series really takes it to another level. I hope you keep going with these ideas. I'm a hacker/hobbyist, that would love to put a little more "finish" or detail on some of my projects, your ideas make me feel "yeah, I could do that". Thanks.

    I appreciate being in the room with you two while you think though the design. That was great to see. You and Elio make a great team!
    Also, that curved bead looks killer!

  • @adambergendorff2702

    Try a spiral flute tap, they push the chip forward and are designed for through holes, you won't believe how much better they work! I love the tool building videos you do!

    • @mshort7087
      @mshort7087 5 місяців тому +6

      I agree and I’ll go one further. I push a hex nut over the square drive shank on my taps. Push them down in a vise with a socket until they bottom out. Use a cutoff wheel to cut off the square until it’s flush with the nut. The nut will hold pretty tight and generally slips (not always) before the tap breaks. With the nut pressed on you can use an impact, a socket and ratchet, or a wrench on your taps. It’s great for getting deep into hard to reach places. I’ve been doing this for years at work and it’s gotten me out of some tight spots. Always a great show, Karl. Thanks for bringing us along

    • @nicktube1857

      You are mixing spiral flute and spiral point. Spiral flute for blind holes and spiral point for thru holes.

    It is so nice that you did your design on paper rather then CAD. I have paper and a pen. but I am not very high tech savoy. I am old school and I can see the finished product when looking at paper. But computer screens you have to move it around too much, THANKS !! Keep up these tool builds !!

  • @thom17043
    @thom17043 5 місяців тому +2

    I greatly appreciate the format of your videos - the "why" of it and not just the "how" of it. There are eleventy-billion videos out there of people making things, but very few get into the thought processes involved. So you either make it just like they do and don't improve upon it or you go down dead ends in your own modifications that the original maker probably considered and rejected for the same reasons you're encountering. Hearing and seeing the process helps those watching to expand their own understanding of what is going on instead of just blindly following along.
    And I love the back and forth with Elio. Again, it shows the process of design and not just the end result. Although, Elio needs his own microphone because parts of his input get muddled in the background. ;)

    If you laminate the dies to make them wider it might help with deformation and surface finish.

    You guys have great energy at the shop. Nice to see the whole process and engineering behind the machine. Your drive to make the dies perfect is next to none. I would have been happy with the first result. Thanks for the awesome year of videos. Lets hope the next year will be as great or even better!

For someone like me that follows you to learn/ grow etc and I'm in a small garage setup a tool like this will be amazing covers so many applications and doesn't take up much space... PERFECT! please do another video expanding it!

    This is an amazing design- youve done a great job. I work in a 7 x 4m shed, and once you put a car in there: dont have room for a lot of the bigger metalworking tools. This thing is so awesome in that its compact! Its on my wishlist now

  • @stubstub8092
    @stubstub8092 5 місяців тому +1

    I considered doing something like that before and didn’t think an air hammer would be enough. This proved me wrong and I now want one.
    For the dies, you could mark them with a sharpie, use it, then polish away the light spots until you have a consistent contact patch.
    And what about casting a die with something? Kirksite maybe?
    Cutting both halves of the die in the plasma cutter would get you a close start and maybe ready to polish.

  • @ridinon22.5s5
    @ridinon22.5s5 5 місяців тому +9

    Wondering if an adjustable spring loaded action pulling against the moving arm would enhance the machine? It could be as simple as a spring with an eye bolt going trough a bracket with a through knob to tighten tension.
    Love your videos. You are such a creative young man with a great work ethic!

    • @stratowing

    Now make another one, cut the frame in half, bolt the top and bottom halves to your bead roller, so that you get the same capability, with the capacity of the bead roller's depth. 😂

  • @jeffpitzer8521
    @jeffpitzer8521 5 місяців тому +1

    Nice! It was a lot of fun seeing the whole thought process and designing of the hammer. It's definitely a design that I'll keep in mind and might build down the road. It did give me some ideas for some machines I've been planning to build and I got an idea for another machine just watching. Great work!

    @JK-zq9vw 5 місяців тому

    I am a broken and broke disabled Vet. I am finally at a point i can start forging. My problem is that I may 30-45min. the days I can. Then I’m normally away from the forge and anvil the next 3 days. I could really use a forge press or power hammer…I don’t even have cheap flux welder. My back has taken so much of the stuff I love away from my. I did see a guy use an air tool once to concave the bottom of a barrel to make an instrument and it looked like it had a huge weight to the head. It made very light work of that drum. I tried maybe finding something like that I could mount to an arm of sorts to move it around but never found it. I did find a few used electric powered lag splitters, but again, no welder or skill. Maybe I could make something worth selling but as of right now it’s just screwing around and learning. If I didn’t live on such a tight budget I think I would just hire someone… happy new year and hope it’s a blessed one.

    Hey Karl, really fab shop tool there. I understood the bolting it all together right up until you welded the gun head onto all 3 pieces. After that all I could think was why not just weld the framework together instead of bolting?

    • @stratowing
      @stratowing 5 місяців тому +1

    This is a fabulous idea. I can see a lot of potential for adding all kinds of beaded panel work for anything, even irregular panels. So versatile! If its reach was extended you could make concentric beads on larger and circular panels 😀 And a very Happy New Year to you, Karl. Nickie

    Pull the center plate back a few mm at the top where the air hammer holder goes, that way it will be easier to get the holder centered and square as it will drop into the grove made by the two outer plates being that bit further out than the centre plate. You might also get a better striking angel if the swinging die holder arm is L shape with the pivot point higher or lower than the die.

    I really enjoy this channel because not only are you a shaping wizard you're also an inventive, clever tool maker. That machine is useful and it's cheap to make.
    Being a part time blacksmith, the only thing I would have done different is to hot rivet the frame together rather than using expensive hardware. I would have added countersinks or counterbores to the holes so that I could rivet it together flush sided and make it even cheaper.
