That is one of my favourite twists it's been around almost as long as blacksmiths have been around. If you check out some blacksmithing videos there are some other interesting twists, like the "dragon scale" twist. Not sure if you have tried this, but if you wire brush the scale with a brass wire brush you get a brass look to the steel. Make sure it's a real brass brush and not a cheap brass plated steel brush. Also, if you want just the high spots brass, rub with solid brass bars.

Cool effect...I'll be scratching my head trying to figure out what I'd use it for.... congrats on finding a new place...I moved my shop and 40 years accumulation of tools, machinery, car parts, and junk recently. Almost 200 miles round trip between locations. 61 days, 12,000 miles, $3,600 in gasoline, two forklifts, 5 trailers, multiple trips to the dump and scrapyard, and 1 shipping container.... I'm NEVER moving again! Hope your move is easier than mine... Always looking forward to your next video...

When you talked about the heat running, it reminded me of when I worked in thee welding shop in Duncan. One of the things we made was aluminum railing. when done, a corner post would be cooled off in a water tank before acid etching and painting. If I plunged the hot end into the tank the cold end would get too hot to hold within seconds.

I learned to weld in 73, to fix the seat rail of a Ducati 250 motorcycle I'd just bought. I've welded professionally ever since, and never noticed this effect for what it really is. I find it quite curious knowing physics well, and having to question how this works. I have noticed it before, but rather incredulously, only now recognizing what I saw in the past. I've done a good bit of "toolmaking" as a machinist and welder, and noted the effect you describe, without having thought in depth. Still have serious questions!

I too enjoyed the biker build-off shows. I wish they would do them again. I just binge-watched all of them on youtube a few weeks agon I have twisted a lot of square, flat and hex bar too. One extra technique I use is to find a piece of tubing that will just fit over the bar to be twisted and just short of the length of bar to be twisted. Then slip the tube over the bar except for the area to be heated. Heat the bar, slide the tubing over the heated area and twist. The tubing keeps the twist in perfect alignment. For brass I use a non-contact infrared thermometer gun. It can measure up to 700°F. I can see you were very careful, and probably don't need my idea. Thanks for sharing! I'm enjoying your channel. It is almost all building and no drama. Love it!

Love the channel, everything you two put up here is top notch! The cheaper work arounds for when you can't afford a certain tool are a huge plus. Thank you for those. I used the welding work around for bending HSS recently and it was a huge help. The torch twisting is such a fun detail. I actually made a tall flower (somewhat similar to the one you showed) for a mother's day gift and used that detail in the stem. Not sure if it helps anyone, but for short gals like myself -- I cut a length of pipe and drilled a hole through the center large enough to fit the end of the square stock I was bending. Tacked that in place near the end of the square stock. Making a longer lever arm that was locked in seemed to help in my case, especially when it's a larger cross section piece. Seems like you manage just fine with wrenches though, one less step for clean up is always a plus.

As a marine, I ran across the Asian notion, "trying to be perfect is an insult to the gods", and their deliberate leaving a flaw, back in the seventies. I've built chopped bikes and cars, rods, with that as a primary idea, and the "flaw" is sort of like a touchstone of nature when we leave it be. I'm sixty five, so I guess "an old guy" too, the bones feel like it anyway!

When I lived in Az, a buddy told me that he had seen a Volkswagen powered twister for ornamental iron works done there. Production innovation! Clamp a piece to the rear wheel with a home made gizmo, with the car blocked off the ground, one guy heats, one guy holding end, one guy “drives “. Makes sense if you need a lot of twists

Thats where I saw Indian Larry do this technique as well. It wasn't much after that when he had his fatal accident. That is until I saw that you had your pieces done on your truck. I l love the look of it in brass especially ! I don't think that I've ever seen it done in brass but I really like the look of it !

Awesome Job, the craftsman like Indian Larry, Billy Lane bending gas tank shapes on his knee, etc. seems to be a lost Art, glad to Ed the younger guys keeping a bit of the old school.

Like the video sir. I'll admit that the part "The Indian Larry Way" got my attention. I used to love watching him build his fine rides and I distinctly remember him making those exact style of bends in the square bar like that. Larry was one of the greats and he is very much missed by his fans and his friends/family the most. RIP Larry! I hope that the good Lord is riding on one of your creations as I type this.

Yea his style twists are distinct. The 180 degree back and forth I think is close. I was very inspired by all his work

That came out awesome! But while watching it, I realized that you could make your life easier if instead of using a torch to heat up the bar, you used an induction coil. That way not only it would heat up to temp in seconds, but you can concentrate the heat to a very specific area and move the coil as you twist along. And also you could eliminate the need for a second person and have a foot pedal to turn the coil on when you are ready. And instead of using angle iron on the temporary rest, use half round pipe to ensure the square bar is always touching at two points. I know I’m probably taking the artistic part out of it (or the fun) hehe. In any case... your work doesn’t cease to amaze me, and I’m glad to see your channel growing fast and getting the recognition you deserve. The movie about your truck seems very cool. I’ll be checking that out as well.
