    Oh look I make one simple metal box by using this thousands of dollar worth of equipment, WOW!! Not even the corner notches are correct, you generally cut out 45 deg. corners to not have any access material, you also drill holes in the corners as stress relief when bending. You also need to deburr the rivet holes otherwise they will have no strength, oh Jesus .... this is probably one of the worst DIY videos I have ever seen. A Russian dude with no tools in the snow makes this faster and better than you with your whole garage filled to the brim with tools.

    Great idea adding the ridges before bending as it adds material strength

    Hi Max, before rolling a bead in the middle of a sheet you need to stretch the metal first, this can be done with a planishing hammer (panel beaters hammer).

    Wow! One of the best videos I have seen on youtube. I was wondering if you are ok with making a tour of your workshop and all the tools inside? I always love learning about tools that you wouldn't know unless someone showed you, if that makes sense? Those rare/esoteric tools are what I live for!

    Love your videos .... I live in Italy and i am from India, I do product design and do a lot of prototyping ... Its so easy to get job works done in India, especially laser cutting and bending when you work with sheet metal for a fraction of the cost .... On good laser stations like Amada etc.. The best part is you can get them done the same day :) In europe its difficult to get job work done unless there is quantity.

    I bought a pack with a variety of rivets, but most are far to small. 4.8mm head width is a good size to work with. If you buy Polybulb you only need two lengths.

    Great video. I think you have a great channel that would grow with more content. I like how you showed your failures. It's nice to see that other craftsman and their mistakes along the way. Im currently without my shop and so I have to vicariously make things by watching youtube videos. I want to make a disc golf cart out of sheet metal. I thought I would have to weld it but you gave me the idea to just rivet it! I also learned from your other videos about bending sheet metal. Thanks.

    I had to look up what a disc cart trolley is. I actually build something similar! Welding thin aluminium is very slow and error prone. 3mm and upwards is much essier. 2mm steel however is very easy. Good luck!
