Metal Shaping for HOBBITS! Helmet Fabrication (LOTR) Eastwood Mini English Wheel Test & Review

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

#fabrication #cosplay #craft
This week we gave the ‪@eastwoodco‬ Mini English Wheel a try, and thought it would be fun to make an Uruk Hai helmet from Lord of the Rings! In this video we go through the project step by step and put the Mini English Wheel through its paces. A helmet fit for an Orc!

    Been on the fence about this one for a while. Thanks for showing what it’s actually capable of! I went from having a 1400sq ft shop to a single car garage recently. Everything has to be modular since floor space is limited- as is table. I am a competition motorcycle builder and believe this will be perfect in my shop.

    Love your videos! Thanks for taking the time for explaining your process. We are not professionals by any means, so having an English wheel on hand is something I would use to learn and practice on. I am a DIYer, so I can definitely use it to make custom panels, more organic-looking mounting solutions for my personal vehicles. We are in the middle of lifting our VW Golf and I have to make everything including new fenders, new inner liners, etc... probably need to relocated some stuff too to clear the larger tires. I also need to bead roll some stuff. Which would another thing I would like to learn to do.

    I never used an English wheel before your video was very informative. I have been trying to make a copper weather vain in the shape of a sailboat however nothing I do gets the compound bends necessary to complete the hull section to any satisfaction. I am an avid woodworker expanding into metalworking. After viewing your video on the Eastwood mini English wheel I can visualize having an English wheel being a valuable asset. Thank you for the tutorial on the English wheel. Your videos are great.
