Thanks for coming by and filming our work! We had a blast!

That's what Eastwood needs, a real metal shaper to demonstrate the tools,

[Mechaniclyfe]

Guy is a craftsman, been following this guy on tiktok for a while truly talented metal shaper - mechanic lyfe

Good job shrinking the "F" out of that piece but I'm wondering by just using a roll over die on 3/4 of an inch on each piece and weld in the middle of the rollovers to each other. Be quicker no!

It was nice of Ron Burgundy to step in on flute.

[PreciousOpal]

The nome😂..i got grumpy frowning while holding a wood plank on a post with a smile drawn on the plank😂

[mythos]

Awesome work...not a fan of the front though. Now the rear fenders! Oh hell yes!

[tomcoryell]

Wow, I need to do this exact job. Thanks for showing it!

[bendude]

I really need to learn how to TIG weld seems to make a much tidier job overall for sheet metal work.

[alanmony]

Will you give Wray Schelin credit for teaching you the flexible shape pattern technique? Remember, metal is clay!!

[porsche]

why not just make a paper pattern, that can be used for both sides and templates for the curves? seems that would be a lot easier. you should file your edges first...

[sblack]

Why do you have vise grips on the shrink stretcher? Just a place to keep them or is there a need to squeeze the 2 sides together?

[jjohnson]

Cover the glass so it doesnt get damaged from sparks

[ryno]

Nice work👋 please tell us the name of this song

[danwalker]

I wish you instead showed the making of the outer quarter panel

[tomcoryell]

Wait, you just blew past the flanging part! That’s the part I needed to see!🙄

[oacumulador]

I miss the 67 camaro restoration... No more?

[charliemyres]

Something is wrong with your shrinking dies, they are stretching the edges not shrinking them!
