Hands down, I have yet to find any YT metal shaper that teaches better than you do! For those of us interested, huge thank you. I hope your ROI for the effort you spend capturing and editing your content justifies your commitment to sharing your craft so you have the motivation to continue.
I've followed you for a while on Instagram and only recently started watching your channel on youtube. In a world of presenters on UA-cam, you have to be hands down the best at showing and explaining how you go about making complex curved pieces. Your skill and speed in turning a flat sheet into a compound curved piece is amazing. Thankyou for sharing. I've been forming sections in builds for many years and feel like I'm quite good, however nowhere near your level. With every video I watch I'm learning and understanding and aspiring to improve my skills.
You Sir have the best workshop I’ve ever seen, a true craftsman, I came across your channel from watching Make it Custom (Karl) recommended to check you out, so glad he did, your content it very informative and helpful for us that are having a go in our garages, a big thanks from us in Australia 🇦🇺👍👍🍻
Thanks for watching, I dont really dont use the wheel much other than as in this video to adjust the form. Once you switch to a power hammer the wheel is almost obsolete
….. just like magic…… so smooth. Mike, thanks for the brief glimpse of converting a plan into art piece using deliberate actions yielding predictable results. 👍👍😎👍👍
Definitely a dangerous channel. You're educational, and inspiring. I see a ton of old cars rejected and reasonably priced because of damage, or missing parts. Fighting cancer at the moment, but I so want to do this.
I understand why Carl Fisher said we should check out your channel. Schilene is great ....your approach seems as good .... or better. Great skills and well explained.
Even though I only do my stuff manually, it is very interesting and enlightening to watch the metal move with those big machines. Watching your videos also helps me understand how to predict what will and needs to happen to make the panel go where I need it to go. I find myself predicting what you're going to say as you say it which helps me build stuff for my projects. Thanks for sharing the stuff you do.
Another WOW! Knowing what to do where and when represents untold hours of labor on your part. Your explanations are superb and of course the craftsmanship matches. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your vast knowledge with us. It sure makes me want to learn the craft that I've respected for so long. I've done several cars using the ultra-hard Chavant clay but mistakes were expected and easy enough to fix. Aluminum and metal are totally different animals, so now I'm learning to oxy-acetylene and TIG weld aluminum. Hope to be a student within the forseable future.
Thanks for watching. Anything I do on power equipment can be done with basic hand tools it just takes longer. Its all just a series of shrinks and stretches
It’s amazing what you can do with the right tools, knowledge and abilities and the understanding the details of this type of work. I know it years of working on these projects like this, but where did you learn the basics skills to get into this type of work.
I just didn’t know if there was now a days a schooling, classes, videos, books, anything else like that. I would think an apprenticeship would be the best way to learn with someone that is there to help and teach you, but I know when I looked for something like that years ago nobody wanted to teach you what they knew. They learned the hard way so they thought that was what you needed to do, l was actually told that by a couple of body men over the years. So many years ago. I still love to watch and learn and think how I would try to do things if I was still able.
Thanks for watching. The problem with longer format videos is the time to make and average watch time of 12 mins. so its a lot of wasted effort when i could cut it into shorter videos. not so sure on the production assistant. I had a video guy for a while and it failed miserably

Thanks I really appreciate it
I can't afford to go to metal shaping classes and training.Priceless information ! Thank you for time spent to make this.
Thanks for watching
Wow! Impressive machine and even more impressive operator!
Thank you and thanks for watching
I just love to sit and watch videos of sheet metal fabrication. I wish I had some sort of shop 🥹👍
Thanks for checking it out
your amazing ability to operate machinery , your shop has the best tools "bar none" but you know the tricks operating - HATS OFF
Thanks
Great video. For a 15 minute video, you cover a lot of ground and share some valuable knowledge. Thanks.
Thanks for watching, i try to keep them short and sweet

Thanks i appreciate that.
So much appreciate your show
Thanks for watching
The American Craftsman is alive & well at Cornfield Customs. Love your analytical approach & execution, creating another masterpiece !!.
Thanks i appreciate it
Beautiful work ,and excellent teaching ,like to see English wheel work in future ...keep the videos coming , hope there is more of this car

Thanks, more just hard work and effort vs magic

You make this look so easy and I know how hard it is.

What a great video! Thanks Mike!
Thanks, Glad you liked it!
I was gonna ask if there are certain steps that need to happen first in the shaping process but you explained it well.
Very inspiring...now I've got to see how my significantly scaled down equipment can make that. Where there's s will..there's a way
Thanks

Thanks man, I can only do what I can do
!🙂. I like to see how amazingly you can handle a piece of sheet metal and get these shapes

Thanks
It’s amazing what you can do with the right tools, knowledge and abilities and the understanding the details of this type of work. I know it years of working on these projects like this, but where did you learn the basics skills to get into this type of work.
I am all self taught. I spent years screwing up parts and panels, and learning what not to do.
I just didn’t know if there was now a days a schooling, classes, videos, books, anything else like that. I would think an apprenticeship would be the best way to learn with someone that is there to help and teach you, but I know when I looked for something like that years ago nobody wanted to teach you what they knew.

@@Chevypowered5766 I am here giving the knowledge away for free, but also offer in person classes at my shop
Magic.
Magic Mike 😊
Trabalho perfeito, Parabéns.
looks nice.
Thank you
Amazing skill
Amazing!
Thanks!
Impressive!!
Thank you
NIce work.
Thanks!
Curious, if there were no interruptions, feeling good mentally, could this roof section be shaped in a 8 hour day? Great work
Probably
High quality
Thanks
beautiful work! i wish you had the time to make longer videos, but i know how much time that takes. you need a production assistant!

Nice Work. Without doing the Video. About how long would it take from start too end?

It was over a couple days
Thanks for another great lesson Mike, Where did you get that rubber wheel from?
Bailiegh makes them
If in the light line area where you blend shrinking with stretching how do you get rid of a hump or high spot that is In the middle.
You blend it all out by washing across from shrink area to stretched low crown are evening the surface
I wonder when the world is going to find out that you can build frames and bodies the way they make lasagna from scratch.
lol Thanks
What's the difference between the power hammer with radial stretch dies, and the planishing hammer?
A power hammer hits harder and slower BPM, and the planisher is lighter hit and much faster BPM.
Thanks!@@cornfieldcustoms
Very rough estimation..
How much time involved in making the pattern and transferring it onto the metal, then how much time forming it to this point?
It takes as long as it takes to do it all correctly
@@cornfieldcustoms same amount of time here too. It's completed when I'm finished.
Record it all and see what the algorithm says, there will a heap viewer's riveted to the very end. I learn by monkey see monkey do👍
Thanks for the view
