Thank you for showing it while doing a project, all the videos are always on the basics, just makes more since trying to make a specific shape and how to get there
Thanks for checking it out 👊
The in depth break down and close up on the thumbnail in action was great, looking forward to the next video!
Thanks! I wasn’t sure if I was going to bore people getting that in-depth, so I’m really happy to hear you enjoyed it 👍
Make It Kustom sent me.
Your hammer is awesome and amazing. Just what I needed when I was re-flooring Cherokee semi end dump trailers.
Awesome. Happy to hear it 👍
Excellent video. This is the Shape-O-Matic video I’ve been looking for. Subscribed and definitely looking forward upcoming episodes. Thank you for the time that went into this one
Thanks for checking it out, and subscribing! I’m doing my best to give everyone a transparent review of the machine, and it’s capabilities. I’ll have the next video up as soon as possible 👍
Seen Karl using the one that he built on his Chanel make it kustom , what a great machine , great job
Yeah man, awesome machine and Karl puts out some great video. Thanks!
GREAT VIDEO NICK, LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT ONE
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Very good video. I've thought about getting one of those hammer kits. Unlike a Yoder, I like how quickly it stops when you let off the pedal.
Thanks! Yeah some of the big hammers do stop immediately as well, some don’t. It all depends on their clutch set up. The Yoders I’ve seen with a traditional cone clutch actually do stop immediately, but the new machines with digital speed control don’t.
Great video Nick, thanks for posting!
Thank you, and thanks for checking it out!
Looks good Nick, looking forward to the next one.
Thank you, and thanks for following along!
Cristian @Sosametalworks has been uploading some shorts recently. That's probably why UA-cam recommended your video.I haven't seen your channel before, so i'm going to settle in and watch
That sounds right. Thanks for checking out the videos!
I bought one of these machines a few years back and used it on one piece but was unfamiliar with it, so i got discouraged. Now I feel confident. Thank you, brother, ✊🏽🙌🏼subscribed!!! Need an English wheel now!! 😅
Awesome! Thanks for watching! Check out my english wheel video if you haven’t already 👍
Very nice! I really want to get one of those machines thanks for the videos Brotha
Thanks for checking it out man!
Hello from Australia and as many have said already thank you for an excellent video. I have also subscribed and I am watching through the other videos. You are very easy to listen to and I enjoyed the tutorial. I am looking forward to the next video, all the best, cheers.
Thank you so much, and thanks for checking out the videos! I’m always happy to answer questions, and hope to have some new videos out soon 👍
Shrinking metal is way cool.
"This one is new to me, I haven't beaten him before"
It sure is! 👍
Graet video, well explained, had to subscribe and follow along !! Keep up the Rad Work!!!!!!
Thank you! Thanks for checking it out, and subscribing! I did my best to break down the process, I’m happy to hear that it makes sense to others.
great video waiting for next video hope everything is okay looks like a while since last video
Great video one of the best I’ve seen, keep um coming 👍
Thanks for checking it out! Will do👍
Good video mate👍🏻
Thanks man!
thank you so much，its valuable
Thanks for checking it out!
Awesome video Nick! I have been considering making my own reciprocating machine like a mini-max. You may have changed my mind as I would be using it primarily for stack shrinking. I also see on the new Sosa kits you can perform joggling operations! Very cool! Looking forward to seeing more!
Thanks man! Exactly, this machine has an adjustable stop so it preforms like a fixed stroke machine. I’ll be making a video demonstrating that feature, and making a custom bead profile 👍
@@CatskillMtnCustoms looking forward to it!
Thx for a nice vid. However i would put concrete or sand inside the hammer frame to make it more stable.
Thanks for checking it out! It’s already filled with sand. The hammer appears to move more on film than it actually does 👍
Excellent tutorial....
Thank you!
Loved the video!!!! And subscribe to your channel
Thinking about buying a Sosa hammer can you do a quick walk through on the hammer . Looking forward to seeing you pass video.
Thank you for checking out the video and subscribing!
The Sosa hammer is a great machine, especially at it’s price point. I’ll be filming videos again soon, and will definitely go over the machine’s capabilities 👍

Question, do you have to bolt your machine to the floor.? I’ve seen other guys on UA-cam that have a Sosa hammer and it’s bouncing around all over their shops😂. And thanks for the reply.
@@JosePacheco-jw3kc Haha Yes, you absolutely have to bolt it down.
any chance we could get a video on the Max o Matic option
Great video ! What clearance do you set between the dies?
Thanks! About 3/8” 👍
does that change with the material type? Like 16 ga aluminum used different gap then 18 gauge steel?
@@DrydeeMetalWerks In this video the machine is functioning as a power hammer, not a reciprocating hammer. A reciprocating hammer has a fixed stroke, so if you set a gap, the machine will maintain the gap while operating. So in that case you may adjust your gap slightly depending on material thickness. A power hammer is a dynamic stroke, and the top die is trying to hit through that bottom die. So gap only determines how hard the top die will hit against the lower die, and is not dependent on material thickness. I hope that helps 👍
@@CatskillMtnCustoms ah! Thanks that makes total sense now. Thanks for the explanation!
@@DrydeeMetalWerks No problem 👍
Magnifique...merci
Thank you!
I really enjoy your style of teaching. Wish you were churning out content at least weekly. I hope the reason you aren't is because your shop is incredibly successful and you are just busy.
Thanks!
Thank you, and thanks for checking out the videos! I would like to put out more UA-cam content, but I just don’t have the time. I do post regularly on Instagram @catskill_mtn_customs 👍
Your finished panel shape is curved everywhere so wondering why you shrink everything on one edge? Could you not go half way in the direction you're going essentially leaving the original metal around the middle of the curve. Then shrink on the top flat section to pull that down ? If that makes sense ? I have no experience doing it myself, if this is a dumb question, can you please tell me why ?
I think I understand what you’re describing, and no that would not work. The opposite actually needs to happen, and I’m going to stretch into that top flat section. Shrinking in that area would create a shape similar to an upside down taco.
