Ductility, yeah. The metal itself is very ductile if not hardened.

Years back we welded a 3m Dia disc 5mm thick to a steel table and blew a dome, had an air bleed off in the center so only water under pressure. when dome was about 500 high welds started making wierd eerie sound, then a crack opened, the jet of water from the crack spurted across a gap of 3m and blew the wall out of the portacom office and knocked it off it's foundations.

I have shaped metal hollow forms by hammers and stakes, by presses and english wheels. This is such a clean and simple process. Your results are amazing! It seems i have been inspired to add to my skillset and workshop!

Thank you everyone for the comments, it has been fun reading them. Here is a video of what I build with the part I made in this video, it is called a handpan. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pYuNx8-CktqxntY.html

Nice work, would it be possible to hydroform something into a form with a certain shape? say, a car hood or something like that? if one would make like a form from concrete, make a print in the concrete in the desired shape and then hydroform it against this form? like a stamp but with no moving parts??? You think this would work?

Wow that's very cool! Well Done!!

Never heared about hydroforming. Great post!!

In school, I built an explosive forming chamber about a third of that diameter. I used a shotgun shell (pellets removed) to push aluminum sheet (soft alloy 1100) into a steel die, with water as an incompressible buffer. Because of the fast forming time, I didn't need a very good seal so I could just smear some grease on the edge of the clamp and let a bit of water squirt out. It worked really well, but I could only use so many ashtrays... One thought: you could use your pump system to make tubular objects from 2 sheets of flat stock welded together around the edge, like perhaps a 2-stroke engine's expansion chamber.

Nice sounding compressor. Good build!

That is fascinating! Great work.

That is so cool, well done!

We have been doing this for a long time too, only we do not drill the workpiece. We have a groove on one of the rings and a bead on the other. Tightening the bolts creates a lock. We press with oil.

Basically, you know how if you fill a balloon with water, it goes from being floppy to always wanting to be round? This is the same concept here, just with metal instead of rubber. The metal needs to be able to hold the water back, but it can't stretch out too far, since the internal tension inside the metal wants to keep the surface from stretching. As such, the steel stretches as little as it can, approaching a round shape over time as more and more water is added- a sphere is the object with the most volume for its surface area. I probably could have explained this better.

I am very impressed with the build quality, the heavy duty aspect of everything to keep it from coming apart and the 'simplistic' nature of the assembly. So, what are you using the domed metal for, and what alloy of steel did you use, if that was important to stretching the dome. (And I like the 'no frills' and 'no extra talking' parts of this video!

Hello. maybe someone has told you before or maybe you have tried. I do not know. I think if you heat the piece and use hot water, it will get an easier and beautiful shape.still looks very good. I like it, good luck

With all due respect, it’s a great setup. You may find that throttling your pressure with a quarter-turn ball valve will eventually wear out the ball. It might be worth your while to replace with a gate valve. Just my two cents.

Excellent, put zinc spray on your bolt threads, it’s a dry lubricant barrier and stops thread galling. A polycarbonate cover over that would be a good safety measure, your don’t always know the quality of the steel your dealing with particularly lately with so much old recycled steel going into steel production the carbon level is up and becoming a problem. I’m guessing you may be using panel steel... If you have a rupture your going to get intense discharge due to elasticity and potential to loose an eye. Operating the stop and release remotely via a drive tube with lever attached would be a safe option. Awesome result and good uniformity, your would beat a metal spinner on quality..

That's excellent

that'll do.that'll do just fine. :D

*Oh how I wish my friend Mike Canaday was still with us to see your video. He was a really good guitarist, a pretty good drummer, and passable on the piano and bass too. We both marveled at the sound of Hand Pan drums and Mike took a couple stabs at making his own but wasn't successful. I know he would be totally studying your set up and wanting to start buying the parts and pieces and then I would remind him he's gonna need a machinist too. Thanks for sharing this.*

Congratulations you now have a wok and when that one wears out in 30 years you can make another one.

I wonder if slotted holes would let it drag in more material for more of a half sphere?

round metal thing ASMR? hell yeah

I was wondering, could you put the flats and divots into an upper form hand pan all in one go? I know you would have to make one upper for each sound combination you wanted to make and you still would need to tune it but would this take an appreciable amount of work out or just too much?

@KallePihlajasaari

2 жыл бұрын

They might not stretch in the right places but then again they might stretch in even better places that way. With a hand made drum I think they would need as much tuning afterwards as making them from scratch but not sure. Certainly for production work it would make sense to have a counter die.

AWESOME!

Hello, I really like your design improvements over Colin’s original design. Are you using 1” steel for the large steel rings or is it 1 1/2”? I was thinking about trying 1” or even 3/4” myself, but didn’t want to waste money if it didn’t work out.
