Using the hammer to pre stretch some 16 gauge running boards I'm making. #quickworkpowerhammer #quickwork #powerhammer #sheetmetalfabrication #metalshaping #metalfabrication #nibblermedium #pullmax #ercoshrinker #blackhawkportopower #blackhawktools #blackhawkportopower #fabrication #handmade #runningboards #scratchbuilt https://www.instagram.com/p/B5LVrfMH7gO/?igshid=ezfzeousq555
Making some large parts in the new press, much better than making them by hand like I used to! Station 218 bulkhead in the Corsair. #corsair #f4ucorsair #warbird #sheetmetalfabrication #aviationsheetmetal #hydraulicforming #hydraulicpress #guerinprocess #rubberpress #ercoshrinker #aluminumforming #2024 #metalforming #formblock #bulkhead https://www.instagram.com/p/BnEEGxCn-py/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dn9uiccp1ptt
I need a 3rd lathe about as much as I need a hole in my head! But $240 for this little Hardinge lathe, along with a nice vintage Kennedy bottom box, I couldn't resist. Came with a nice 3 jaw chuck, as well as a good selection of collets. #vintagemachinetools #hardinge #hardingelathe #kennedytoolbox #vintagemachinist #ercoshrinker #quickworkpowerhammer
For all intents and purposes I'm calling it done, and it even shrinks! Just have to get it lettered, hoping @upperhandsigns can help with that! #handmade #ercoshrinker #kickshrinker #manualmachinist #fabrication #sheetmetalfabrication #quickworkpowerhammer #shrinker #metalshaping
Made the lower die holder and got it welded to the rest of the main unit. Still need to figure out the foot pedal, and finish welding the base. #handmade #manualmachinist #manualmilling #contourmilling #fabrication #erco #ercoshrinker #kickshrinker #metalfabrication #welding #migwelding #tigwelding
Used my #hossfeldbender to bend up the U shaped section that will get welded in. Few little adjustments on the Acme anvil, and it's ready to be trimmed and welded. Also turned the pivot pins. #handmade #fabrication #manuallathe #manualmachinist #ercoshrinker #erco #kickshrinker #hossfeldbender #acmeanvil #anvil #acme
Just picked up some goodies from the laser cutter. Big thanks to @dan_bjertness for making the CAD drawings off my chicken scratch napkin drawing! #kickshrinker #erco #ercoshrinker #sheetmetalfabrication #fabrication #welding #manualmachinist
