Mr. Colin Furze, I'm a 21 year old film student in San Diego, USA. I come from a 'farming community' back home in Maryland, USA. Watching your videos makes me sane again whenever I'm stressed out during a film shoot or during midterms and finals in school. But this video, the 'how to make a tools one', was especially epic! It brought me back to the pure ingenuity of my family, friends, and neighbors back home. PLEASE, please make more of these videos, please. You're so full of talent, and I'd hate to see it go to waste in advertisement/cool (but over the top/show-style) inventions! There is absolutely nothing wrong with these videos, but don't forget to stick to your roots! PSA, I visited GB a few weeks ago, and it was *ducking* awesome!

I like how most people probably assume Colin is joking when he says he's a "Tidy Person", but that is actually a pretty immaculate shop. For non-makers or builder types, it might look like a mess... but take my word for it. That is a beautiful, clean, and very functional shop. If you don't believe me, take a look at any older Diresta video and look at Jimmy's NYC shop! Google a few workshops and try to find a shop that's as functional, as well used, but also as clean and orderly as Colins. I have serious respect for Colin. Not just for his creativity and building skills, but for his respect for his workplace and tools and how he maintains a clean and effective work environment. Just the right amount of mess, just the right amount of chaos for inspiration! Way to go, Tidy Guy!

@leeknivek7 жыл бұрын
the stiffener on the vertical part (the part that folds) is usually bolted on or off. the 8' brake i use at work is 1/2" with a 1/4" angle stiffener. we rarely use the stiffener. what's more important is having the top angle down brace (the triangle part) that uses threaded rod to put down pressure onto the middle of the clamp, making sure pressure is even all around.
@leeknivek7 жыл бұрын
4:35 you want it close because the top end is usually adjustable (such as is on yours, variable down pressure) which makes the gauge thickness not an issue. you want roughly a 1/16" or i guess 1mm from the edge - you will never put metal in there heavy enough to max it out because you'll never be able to bend something that heavy!

ive built my first lathe out of scrap steel, used an angle grinder, drill press and a cheap welder. i mean, could it build formula one engines? propably not, but it was more than good enough for first steps and propably for everything you will ever do in a home shop. "i dont have tools" is a very bad excuse, i mean if you have NO tools, it might be a problem but come on, drill press: 60$, angle grinder 20$ used mma welders are so dirt cheap too. 3 basic tools with those you can build pretty much everything, you just need the will and patience to do so.

David Gingery's books are the classic instruction sets for that. Very little needed in the way of tools, and no power tools are strictly necessary. gingerybookstore.com/ or Amazon. And once you've got the basic lathe built you can use it to improve itself.
@ArcanePath3607 жыл бұрын
There's plenty on YT for making tools with limited tools, such as turning a drill into a drill press. As you make tools you use these to make even more tools. Just putting a belt sander in a vice turns it into a bench sander. I made a table saw recently and all I had to buy was a circular saw. I used the saw to help make parts of it, strange as that sounds.... EG: I used a piece of wood and clamps to make a temporary fence which helped me to make a good square fence. So basically it built itself!
@RubSomefastOnIt7 жыл бұрын
not worth it. you would need a lathe in the first place to make anything worth using. you can find used lathes fairly cheaply. I got a 1946 logan 820 with lots of tooling for 600$. Dont bother building one if you actually want to do real lathe work with it. A decent lathe pays for itself very quickly taking odd jobs and repairing and making tools. The same goes for a mill, got mine very cheap. Now I am building myself a CNC pool cue lathe with them, thats only for cutting tapers and inlay engraving, but to get the spindle I machined anywhere even close to the proper run out had to be done on a lathe then ground.

not worth using? and cheap? sure, you can get a 1000 pound lathe "cheap" but if he doesnt have a shop already, where should he put it at? following the gingery books is a very nice, fun and rewarding way to build your own shop, you learn so much by doing this stuff and you become better and better

couple of things, you should grind the sheet clamp bar face a little past 90 degrees to the table so you can bend a little more, it helps with thicker metal. also with the clamp bar, cut out some of your middle welds at the front edge and tap holes at the top of the angle iron so you can put in screws that will push down in the middle against the clamping face and effect more clamping pressure so the bend is more uniform on stubborn but middling wide pieces. now your next tool should be a magnet base drill, think of it as sort of a drill press that clamps itself to the work. its basically a rectangular steel box with an interior box you can place a electromagnetic field coil between to magnetize the edge of the inner and outer box. to cheat they make a permanent magnet base that is interrupted by a field coil (current unlocks it instead of locks it) to whatever magnetic base you need to add your drill in some sort of linear slide with some sort of lever to push it all down -OR- buy one of those tiny drill presses, finagle it so the center post will pass thru the top of the power head (so you can lower it fairly low) and bolt the base plate backwards to your magnet base so you got a all powerful magnetic drill press! if you're being cheap and lazy just knock a hole in the middle of the base plate where the spindle drops and just use clamps to hold it to whatever needs drilling. you can even bodger it to your lathe table to do complex drilling on chucked items. another handy tool to have on the corner of the work bench is a tapping station. its basically a swing arm mounted on a vertical post that holds a spinable shaft that can hold a threading tap square to the surface of the table. almost all of it can be made from steel pipes and fittings. first a pipe flange to bolt down to the table top, a length of clean pipe screwed into that. around that a clamping collar to adjust height. you want to take a steel T fitting and bore out the long side to slip fit the vertical pipe. easiest way is to screw in a short nipple right angle and place it against the face of the lathe chuck and chuck up the body of the T and lathe out the bore. you want three of these btw. the third T might need to be smaller as the pipe size you pick to slip fit must be able to be connected to a thread tap chuck either by butt welding to the face (hard to get running true) or bored to snugly fit the chuck and tack weld it together. now you add a longer nipple to your first T fitting and a 90 degree elbow to the other end. the elbow then gets a nipple long enough to pass through the second T and to that tee you add another nipple and your last T fitting. lay it all down against bits of plank so only the pipes are supported (it will square it all up to each other) tack weld the threaded connections. leave the slip fits free. stand it up on the flange and put the slip fit segments together and you have an arm that will always be square to the table top. the pipe with the tap chuck you can leave long and drill a cross hole opposite end to add a cross rod to spin it to do the tapping. you can even make yourself a set of chucks to cover the gambit of tap sizes. now after you drill a bunch of holes to tap in your drill press, you can just move the piece to another machine vice and tap them all nice and square to the surface

Another feature regular breaks have is you can break past 90 degrees because the knife (top clamp part) is raked back at an angle. a sharper knife is also a plus because if you set it back half or more of the material thickness you can change the radius of the bend. it looks pretty solid tho

and I like the way you do stuff - really neat and professional.

If you tap your flat plate so you can move your fence back, you can take a piece of tube, say 25mm for instance, weld a piece of flat stock to it on the tangent, lay the tube piece in on top of your metal, clamp it down and now you have a 12.5mm radius. Most likely you'd have to add vertical clamp tubes to the back side of your hold down bar and maybe stagger the holes if you wanted to use multiple radius plates.

Excellent work. Thumbs up. Now I was trying to make a bender to bend sheets of galvanized iron that are 2 m long and 1.5mm thick, but it turned out to be very difficult. Any idea for such case? Thanks...

You could use some light, small coil springs under the clamping bolts to lift the upper portion. You would need to recess the spring pockets but it would save from having to raise the clamp while feeding or removing the metal

One of my favourite videos of yours in recent times. Would love to see more of this type of stuff

Great build. On the handle, you might just have the handle detachable. That way you keep the clean profile when not in use. Shop projects get good views. In the movie Wall E, his storage unit revolved. With limited space that would work for you.

if you put a small bevel on the clamping plate it will allow you to bend past 90deg. to allow for spring back, good tool though...
