Worth 12 minutes of your time. Interesting wheel in there. |
Good video.

Thanks, Carey. There is an instrument repair guy in the larger building of one of the local Model A enthusiasts. I may just go give him a visit.

Very cool. Great to see that video- thanks for the link, Carey.

The magnet and the ball technique...amazing!
Whats the chance of that working on 20 gauge steel? |
Being steel, it probably wouldn't work at all no matter the thickness. I have played around with super magnets and a soda can. I bashed a dent in the bottom of a can and dropped in a super magnet and worked it with a magnet on the outside. It completely burnished it back to the original shape without a mark. Both were flat magnets. It worked the edges of the dent toward the center and then it was gone, Fun.

Ooh. This is great stuff.
I just sent the link to my friend at the Metal Museum in Memphis TN. They have a fundraiser every fall where a bunch of volunteer metal smiths come in and do repairs for the public. We get tons of pewter and silver plate (which is usually brass and soft solder). I think they should make this a training video. |
Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.
Everything is done so that the plate is still soft, no punches !!!! No bam, bam.:) |
I enjoyed watching every minute of this video, can't get over the magnet used as a planishing tool, maybe I apply used some of his methods in shaping thin copper.
Thanks for posting it. |
