Projects new member. watch me section my Desoto.

Looking good, I always seem to buy/build the tool I need after I don't need it anymore and then complain about how much easier it would have been if I'd just got the tool to start with lol.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with these

 

Getting it all figured out! Just need to make spring mounts and foot pedals then weld it all up. Happy new year HAMBers!

 

Great work
Thanks for sharing

 

I'm hoping this will help someone looking for details on how to build one. I couldn't find anything to help me. It's actually not to hard to make. I tried to show details and that I only bought the springs. I'm making a video on YouTube search "RY TANG"

 

Got everything fabricated, just need to finish welding it then paint it. It works great!

 

NICE!!!!

 

Just a thought, maybe take some square tubing and use it to make the rear wheels on your english wheel/shrinker/stretcher stand a little more stable? Looks good.

 

Now that's a weapon worthy of a full custom paint job.
Any plans for some bitchin art work?

 

I thought about a cool paint job, but I'm tired of messing with it... Probably just yellow. That way I only have to paint part of it... Plus getting the yellow powder coat off sucks!

 

Really like this, I've been wondering where to mount my shrinker/stretchers.
Thanks, now I have another project

 

I always used the bolt through method of making tabs too, but I found that if I used a couple of large washers as guides they didn't come out with uneven Gumby heads.

 

Definitely saves room. Good luck on your project! Keep me posted!

 

My metal supply carries tabs like that, as well as triangular gussets and other goodies for steel fences (note that I do not call them "wrought iron" since they are not). I always grab a fistfull whenever I'm there. Saves a lot of time when building stuff. I can spend hours making these things or pennies buying them

 

Done!!

 

Very Nice, now its time to use it! Check out the Tuck Puck http://www.tuckpuck.com/ I just picked them up for my 37 build sort of like a pocket stump. Have fun Hobo Jim

Nice, I have been putting off getting one of the English wheels but I might need to speed up my plans.

@rytang where ya at? get too hot to build? busy slinging ink?

 

As far as I gather he's traveling, and yeah it's busy season he's probably swamped at work

 

I'm worried too, hope all is well out there, sure miss the weekly updates. Bob

 

Does anybody know him personally? I agree hope everything is OK Hobo Jim

 

He's ok guys just busy

 

Thanks! Thought my thread watcher was broke!

 

I'm ok everyone! I've been really really busy at work and traveling. I've been in the garage a little bit, but I've been making a new coffee table lol. I figured no one wants to see that. I will be getting back on the car soon!! Up next is molding the rear bumper sides.
