He knows instinctively what heat/colour the material is at it's yield point and melting point - he stays between those two very tight tolerances while still guiding the internal air pressure to apply force in exactly the right place at the right time. Masterful.

@v8trauma4 жыл бұрын
The air pressure pushes the dent out where the pipe is plastic (due to differential pressure like an inflated balloon). Too much air will make the pipe act as a bourdon tube, but relatively low pressure like 150psi won't cause too much permanent deformation. The clamps allow the zorst to be pressurised by capping the ends, one has a stabbing to allow the compressed air in/out. Hope that helps.
