trying out my new bead roller dies to make some guards for the cubman

In this video I make a set of guards for the cubman using the new bead roller dies I brought from extra machinery as well as my stretcher and shrinker then I had an interesting idea about making radius edge wheel tubs so I had a go at making one of them as well using the TIG and planishing hammer
It was all quite successful and I will definatly be using these methods on an upcoming build

Good to see the Cubman again, Nice job on the guards too.

[@juscozcustoms]

The final build video should be happening soon... ish

[@dangdang3970]

Getting some grind hard plumbing vibes of this clubman build, love it 🤘👌👍

[@juscozcustoms]

I had been planning on building the cubman for probably 5 years but I was inspired by GHPC to finally build it and film it. Well that and breaking my leg and having lots of spare time. I have an extensive playlist if you want to see EVERY detail of the build

[@chrisoxley7148]

Haaa ... the "shedquarters"... terrific handle !

[@juscozcustoms]

Thanks. I borrowed it from a close friend who was using it as the name for his shed back in 2001 and since he was no longer in that shed I claimed it for myself... well for my shed anyway

[@2wheelworkshop]

Good job Jeff. Wish you had the bead roller when we were in high school. The floor pans of my Torana wouldn't have been 50% fiberglass.

[@juscozcustoms]

Yeah. So many tools I have now that I wish I had back then... so many tools I have now that I wish I had even two years ago. Look on the bright side... I have them now and the builds that I can do now are going to be so much better than what we could have managed in highscool

[@chrisoxley7148]

Hey I really enjoyed this ... thx fer leading the way and building confidence in us thinking of following suite . Lookin forward ti following along ... cheerz from 🇨🇦 😁

[@juscozcustoms]

Thanks Chris Oxley you have come along at the right time I am just about to start an automotive build that will require a lot more of this kind of fabrication.

[@chrisoxley7148]

Sure glad I subscribed at the perfect time ... lookin' forward to it . Cheers from a " boat person" ... floated over here in ' 66 from St Helens, Lancashire ... and in Ontario ,Canada since then. Cheers bud !

[@juscozcustoms]

@@chrisoxley7148 well I happen to have a boat or two of my own that might just make it onto the channel as well. But first I need to get some storage solutions happening in the shedquarters so I have space to work

[@animal_engineering]

awesome work they came up looking awesome, I'm about to attempt to make some for an XD Falcon.

[@juscozcustoms]

Sounds like a good project. Is it a sedan, wagon or ute?

[@juscozcustoms]

Ok checked out your channel now I have some videos to watch

[@animal_engineering]

@@juscozcustoms hi it’s a Ute, I had already brought tubs before watching your video, I’m gonna have a go making a set just for fun though looks like a good project

[@joell439]

that had to be very exciting to see how well it came out after a little planishing - 👍👍😎👍👍

[@juscozcustoms]

Sure was. It came out as good as I had hoped. It could probably be sanded smooth but a coat of hibuild primer would definitely make it perfect

[@ElFreddoAndRubyScoo]

Yellow! The clubman guards need to be colour matched yellow 😉😉 So many possibilities with those tools!

[@juscozcustoms]

definitely yellow. and possibly some polished alloy stone guards on the rear ones. so many possibilities and the first fullsize project that I am planning to make with all these tools will be bike engines and should definitely PEEL the tires

[@guillermonieri4203]

Thank you.

[@juscozcustoms]

Happy to bring the camera along and share some knowledge. that's what this channel is all about

[@johnm.washbush591]

Oh, yes ... the Clubman is back! Go, Clubman!

[@juscozcustoms]

Well it's still here that's true but it's not back just yet... I'm going to have to rewatch the build to work out where I left off in episode 49 so I can plan out the final episode.

[@johnm.washbush591]

Nice to see you back in action again. The family looks great. Shed Korgi needs to go on a diet, me thinks! ;>).

[@juscozcustoms]

What do you mean @@johnm.washbush591 #shedcorgi was so skinny in this video you didn't even see him. But hopefully I'll be back a bit more often now

[@justinskustoms4224]

nicely done!

[@juscozcustoms]

Thanks!

[@blakegaddis946]

Great job! Have you watched any of Lazze's videos?

[@juscozcustoms]

@@blakegaddis946 yeah he has some good tips and tricks

[@davidmurphy1653]

That's what I call a bead roller ma man

[@juscozcustoms]

You call it a bead roller, I call it Betty... Well not really. 😆

[@juscozcustoms]

Maybe I should

[@trevorhenderson8658]

Just one question where was shed corgi in this video?

[@juscozcustoms]

ummm. on my hat and shirt... unfortunately he is missing from a few videos and this is one of them. well done for noticing his absence and thank you

[@lindabenbow8492]

Are they a hare and forbes dies set? What was cost of complete set. Cheers John

[@juscozcustoms]

I assume they come out of the same factory in China as the Hare and Forbes machine but I got them from Tim at extramachinery.com they are located in Sydney and gave me a much better price than H&F. Also because it is the same machine from both companies if you already have the H&F bead roller the dies from Extra Machinery should fit. I brought them many months back and can't remember what I paid for them but if you ring Tim and tell him you had seen them on my video I'm sure you will get a better price than H&F would give you

[@st170ish]

G'day mate just subbed to your channel my kind of content! Those mini tubs what if you rolled a curved shape before rolling the edges, wouldnt have the shrinker chewy chew marks then which suck when TIGíng. I got one of those bead rollers too but of the H&F kind(the little brother MB600) and also obtained the radius edging dies but havent tried them yet. Looking forward to more of your content 👍

[@juscozcustoms]

Thanks for the sub. I actually tried that with the roller first and it didn't work at all. It ended up mostly flat again but with ripples in the edge. The shrinker marks are not bad because I was only shrinking 3mm of the edge. I should be able to remove most of the marks with a flap disk fairly easily before I weld it next time. I am going to be customising my bead roller soon to make it work better that might interest you. But I am also going to have a go at making another small English car very soon but until then you might enjoy the cubman playlist

[@st170ish]

@@juscozcustoms Ok that dont work... saves me trying it then! I havent mucked around with my bead roller much yet, still trying to get my metal/car working area sorted. The shed Im using was an old piggery made from drill pipe thats been added on and on an on by the previous owners who had a "that'll do" attitude... rustic to say the least🙄

[@juscozcustoms]

@@st170ish my previous shed (a rental property) was a 4 bay machinery shed that only had one inclosed bay and the rest was carped on dirt flooring that was basically impossible to work on. I am happy with my shed now but it could be a bit bigger... maybe ten times the size would be big enough but for now I'm just doing shed upgrades to make the most of the space I have so there might be something that helps you in your shed As for the bead roller I suggest getting a sheet of 1mm steel (I'm using .95mm) and trying out every combination of dies you can think of and see what happens. It gives you the knowledge of what is going to happen with each die and after bending up $50 of sheetmetal you will have the confidence to have a go at making something to keep (its not a waste of steel if you are learning)

[@bradameerbeg2154]

Haha… first time I was first to comment and watch for a while, I think!

[@juscozcustoms]

True. But what did you think about the video?

[@bradameerbeg2154]

@@juscozcustoms awesome, the bead roller is cool.

[@juscozcustoms]

@@bradameerbeg2154 sure is. But it needs to be customised 🤪

[@johnm.washbush591]

the Clubman fenders need to either be yellow or polished shiny. Please, not black ...

[@juscozcustoms]

I might have a go at making some alloy ones to polish but for now I'll just paint the steel ones yellow... definitly yellow 😁

[@balwn4127]

Hey Mate, Are you in Melbourne?

[@juscozcustoms]

Close but not quite.
