TRY This SIMPLE Trick to Build Curved Flanges for Inner Structures!! (Hammer Forming + Dimple Die)

[@fitzeesfabrications]

Nice work. Simple tools. I love it. I like to know some of the history on the vintage tools and equipment. I see clamps machines and bunch of other old vintage stuff. Too cool. Old tools tell a story. Yours can write a book!

[@xozindustries7451]

Well said

[@mrcasperjensen]

Yeah I’m glad I watch yours and fitzee’s videos.. makes it so much easier

[@MakeItKustom]

@fitzee’s fabrication Yes tony! I’m the same love the old tools and the people that I’ve acquired them from. One of coolest guys I got tools from built his own mining equipment, mined for gold, refined his gold and made gold jewellery. Never got to meet the guy but wished I did.

[@georgeyoung613]

@@MakeItKustom wow that would have been an awesome conversation if you did. It's extremely rare to meet people like that and i always take advantage of the opportunity when it presents itself. Its terrible unfortunate those opportunities are fewer every year. Its good to see there are people picking up where they left off. One day you will be the story tellers in trusted with the past. Keep the skill and passion alive brother.

[@aamantium1]

My wife calls me a "simple old tool", but no one wants to hear my stories!

[@weldersandblaster]

Most channels add some music, and most channels have its volume too loud, so you can't hear the narrator. I love the volume of your music. Just noticeable and soothing, but not overpowering.

[@bpaulet739]

Agree, I just watched one from a South African company builds G40s. As impressive and dedication to building a road driven 40, man the music was shocking. My mate who posted it said who ever done the audio, must of been drunk

[@MultiMarty100]

#metoo 👍

[@LonersGuide]

Yeah, I was digging that little tune at around 13:20 or so myself.

[@DustyMacsGarage]

My man!!!!! I been busy, trying to catch up on all the videos! This is gonna be great!!!!

[@mrpurcountry]

You have the most professional metalworking shop on KZbin, hope your move to your new shop goes really good.

[@jayinmi3706]

Yours and Fitzee's are some of my favorite channels. Basically I like that you both break it down into bite sized pieces to keep from getting too overwhelmed.

[@kristoffer-robinlotze7273]

Same here. 😀👍

[@MakeItKustom]

Happy to hear it ! I really dig fitzees too!

[@johnmcclain3887]

Reading the "replies" sends me to ever more interesting videos with techniques I've seen the results of, but not having seen how it's done. I don't think I'll be doing much sheet metal work, but I think I can do a better job making the tooling, better understanding of how it's used, and the problems that need special attention. I really enjoyed seeing those curves welded in, really nice technique.

[@Richie5480]

Glad to see young person using safety protection. You do great work, your video person is great too. Thank you for your time, to make these videos.

[@thomasnewton9818]

Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. I spent 25 years in precision sheet metal and prototype sheet metal building computer and machinery housings and display units so I know and appreciate the amount of time that it takes to do what you're doing. I like your attitude about finding a way to get things done and the way you break things down to simple components.

[@ronlynch7744]

I gotta say, these are the coolest techniques with wicked videos to show all the metal work. It’s an Cool Hot Rod Shop Class. 😎👍🇨🇦

[@garyyorke1080]

Sweet and simple . Shows you really don't need a huge top draw tool shop to do something that looks the business . Thanks

[@e30mark]

You're enthusiasm and skills are amazing, not forgetting the great camera work as well.

[@DesertRatFabrication]

You hit another one out of the park Karl, cool cool

[@PatHaskell]

I like everything about this…clear and concise, excellent explanation, clean shop, no obnoxious music or antics, excellent editing. I wish him all the success!

[@messinger123]

Karl, I want you to know I have deep gratitude for your efforts to share the knowledge of your craft. I realize you (and your spouse) have been pouring hundreds of hours into these videos. They are so well done and so helpful. My next project is a refresh of a roadster that has been in my family for 60 years. The things you are teaching me are literally helping me better honor my family.

[@b3av3rz]

This channel gives K.I.S.S. a whole new meaning. Love this shit and I don't build or fab.... just a fan of your work.

[@jenkinseric2]

I have to comment on the music, very well done. I often give up on watching videos because I cannot make out the dialog for the noise in the background. I never have that problem with your videos. great music, well placed. thank you. Eric the 71 year old curmudgeon in Victoria.

[@brianwashereeeee]

Nice work! This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. Who needs cable!

[@pedroluken3177]

Every time I watch your video's, I am so impressed and learn so much. Thank you very much for sharing

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

I think it turned out awesome too! Beautiful work, thanks for sharing your talent and expertise with us regular folk!

[@mikecharlenebeaudoin4876]

I am a retired Master Craftsman and I love watching you teaching the old simple ways of building stuff. This is the training that should be taught in the trade schools before anyone is allows to use the machines. I also like the way you model the use of safety equipment, I would be able to hear and see better if I had been taught to use safety equipment 45 years ago. Keep up the great teaching to keep the trades alive. Cheers Mike.

[@mikedmt]

Love this kind of stuff. I appreciate the willingness to share your experience and knowledge. Look forward to whatever you do next👍

[@geneschaffer4123]

Karl you are a talented blessing to us fabbers and so is your wife doing the filming. Thanks to guys like you and Fitzee for sharing your knowledge. P.S. Hope your workshops/classes vision happens!

So good! I have been drooling over those cross braces! Thanks for the how-to!

[@wheels-n-tires1846]

Right?? I saw that bracing and was wishing I had a project that needed somthing like that, just so I could make it!!!🤣

[@carlholm2765]

Thank you for a clear and concise monologue along with the content. It is so nice to understand what is being said without constant you know, and like, and umm and regular gratuitous cursing. I like to watch these videos at home with my kids around and not have to censor content because of language, you are MOSTLY pretty good about that. You and old Derek at VGG do a great job at being family friendly without being stupid. Keep up the GREAT work! Try and get the Mrs on camera more often too, she also does great work.

[@timfoster6018]

Congratulations on the new digs

[@davidsauter13]

I'm just shade away from 70 yrs old and you are the most informative fabricator I've seen on you tube, I through enjoy your how to build you own tools, since I am a pensioner on a fixed income, that is so helpful to me. I love to build old hot rods and doing as much as I can myself. Keep up these great videos and I'll keep watching you and learning....Thanks Karl

[@c7d3p]

Awesome video. Glad you mentioned Bello's on one on your recent ones too. You two guys are inspirational metal workers/fabricators/custom car builders. 🤘

[@georgeyoung613]

This brace came out beautifully. As always i very much enjoyed watching it and i picked up some very useful knowledge doing it. Keep doing what your doing brother. Your keeping the past alive and teaching the future generations to do the same. A skill is never lost if there is but one person willing to keep it alive and pass it on.

[@peterohgren]

Thank you for the video, you make them so interesting by your enthusiasm and your skills. I follow every new video you’re making. From Sweden 🇸🇪

[@stich1960]

I would just like to mention I really do apreciate you guys keeping the power tool noises quiet, even some well established channels dont have that figured out. I'm always using headphones so if I get an earful I will always leave so I really do apreciate it.

[@MakeItKustom]

Thanks for noticing! I feel the same when I watch their channels 🤙

Yup!! Japhands and Fitzee are THE car metalwork channels!!! They share an amazing amount of knowledge and how-tos!! Theyre the best!!!

[@aaroncraig9940]

Thank you for being willing to share skills.i have always kind of avoided sheet metal. I am primarily a blacksmith and welder for about 25 years.. I used to be a car mechanic when I was young and still do some car work. Watching your videos has gotten me excited about the idea of doing some custom car work for myself. Thank you very much for that. These videos are awesome!

[@glenmiller3783]

Another great video Karl, the only thing I would add is make sure what ever hammer you are using to brake the edges over has a smooth face so you are not transfering a bunch of nick and marks into your piece.
