Mini tub wheel well in one piece, Doubtful - Part 1
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this Video I show the process of laying out a one piece mini tub wheel well. Explain the basics of shrinking and thickening the metal on the power hammer, and show the first set of shrinks to start pulling the panel around.

@@stanstelmach5326 the material gets thicker at the shrank area. So the material is compressed. If the grains dont move and stack up how would the material get thicker in the areas of shrink?

One thing that still boggles my mind, despite watching yours and several other explanations, is how the thumbnail die works - my brain wants to believe that the metal would just end up right back where it started as you pull back out, yet it doesn't. I still can't quite wrap my head around how the die doesn't just simply "undo" the tuck :)
Great content Mike, this is the stuff 😊

You killed it Mike. I even made my wife watch and listen to you explain stuff. One extra potentially helpful thought on teaching / explaining - perhaps a pencil sketch of the thickness of material in the shrunk zone through a cross section diagram - help is see where the material is being moved to and how that causes panel to spread in places and contract in others. Keep up the good work Mike. You have a gift to teach. You also just a humble guy. God bless. Aaron.
Brilliant explainer...still don't think I'll ever do it, but if I did I'd be replaying this video quite a few times to get schooled up. Nailed it!!!
Science = Organized knowledge. I'd say that was in and itself the best explanation and demonstration I've ever seen on how metal forming is done. Unbelievably cool 👀
Amazing!

thanks for watching. Yes smaller hammers are more than capable of doing these parts. I have a smaller hammer that i used to make these on. I just use the big hammer on everything now
Oh so much easier than when I was an apprentice we had to do this very same exercise using only a blocking hammer and a block then later hammer and dolly. I prefer this method.
Really great video on a complex subject.

Thanks Mike! Great video, loads of good information. A key takeaway for me is to focus on getting the shrinks to accurately form the radius of the bend before worrying about the floppy outer edge. I know how much extra effort it is to produce videos on top of actually getting work done, much appreciated!

@@cornfieldcustoms I tried making that piece on my MH19 early this year. I never could get the wavy part to come all the way over and tighten up the piece. After watching your part 1 I am thinking that I didn’t have the hammer blow intensity set right. Ultimately I ended up making the pieces in 2 parts using a round over die (covell tank die) in the bead roller and then welding the center of the radius. They came out OK but not great. After I watch you finish the one that you are making I will try making mine on the hammer again. I never installed the ones I made in the spring. Anyway thanks again for the post. It is much appreciated.
Very good ... Matt Precision Panel craft... Closing the panel a bit can help shrink.

Mike very good explanation, thank you, what type of steel do you use A K deep drawn metal? Can’t wait tell the next video, thank you once again.
Amazing knowledge and abilities. I am assuming you made many "mistakes" along the way to get to this point of your learning abilities. And I also assume you didn't start with the power hammer machine, but hand tools as you progressed. So that is where most of us are presently working with metal forming. Thanks for the lesson and video...
I'm in for episode 2 for sure! My question is if you didn't have a power hammer would you split this into 2 pieces?
@cornfieldcustoms
9 ай бұрын
yes if you were doing this with hand tools or some lighter power tools 2 sections would be the only way to achieve it, unless you spin it and cut out, but that a whole different topic
This was a great video, you're a great teacher Mike. If you were to make this part with a mallet and stump, you'd have to flip the panel, right? When you crush the tucks with a mallet, the panel is pushed outwards (convex). I'm trying to figure out how I could do something similar with hand tools.
@cornfieldcustoms

if you were to make this with a mallet and a stump you would have to make it in 2 pieces and weld them together

thanks for this nice explanation. I have just one question. You said, it is essential to stop right at the line. Where actually are stoping in regards of the die? Is the outer flat area not crossing the line or is the tuck going til the line?
@cornfieldcustoms

You dont pay attention to the die. You stop the shrink at the line. Not the die or the tuck itself. There is an area just in front of tuck thats kind of a horse shoe shape thats what is stopped at the line. Its the front edge of the shrink

well actually you can also drill metal draw it, upset it, and rivet it, but I suppose thats a differant type of metal work and names for much the same concepts but you say you offer classes and lessons in shaping and crafting? hmm sounds like I might be interested if I had the time. but thanks for showing us the layout, its so seamless its a work of art

@@cornfieldcustoms ah yes but you said welding, a differant method of attachment, and of course the operations I mentioed have more to do with bar stock or slug metal not thin plate or sheet metal, but I guess you do thick stuff too bending frame and tube and its crazy how well it works without even kinking the metal heh, I guess I am trying to be a wiseguy thats a big hammer, how much force does it hit with at max pressure per blow, I am more familier with forging type power hammers or presses which have the force of the ram or weight of the hammer, not necessarily the blows per minute.

welding and attaching are totally different things. lets say you have 2 pieces of .500 1018 Mild steel. You forge weld them together ( 100 % clean, no cold shuts, or delam, a perfect forge weld) , what do you have? 1 solid billet of 1018 mild steel. you can not go back in and separate the 2 back into their own individual pieces. now take 2 identical pieces of .500 1018 Mild steel, you rivet ( bolt, tape, glue, zip tie) the 2 pieces together, What do you have? 2 pieces of 1018 mild steel rivet ( attached ) together. you can easily knock the rivet out and you are back to the 2 individual pieces you started with. Welding and attaching are different theories and i was not talking about attaching since it doesnt have anything to do with the 5 core principles of modifying a ( singular) piece of metal. it doest matter material shape size or thickness, you want to modify a piece of metal you are shrinking, stretching, cutting, bending, or welding.
