Hi Ayden, love your videos mate ! question, would i be correct in assuming the power hammer used here is the 940 model ? Im looking at purchasing the 760 & was curious if power & capacity was the same between the two & if the only difference was the throat size ? Keep up the great work & keep the video rolling too, im really learning alot from them 👌😉

You need very expensive tools on top of your own skills to shape these panels. Thanks for sharing.

Hello. Are your lower anvils true radius or do they have flats?

that is the outer skin.. great job and nice video! Question.. what is going to stiffen the skin etc? Are you making that too?

Great video, very interesting with good description of the full process.

What is the aluminium thickness do you use for your panels please.

Beautiful work. It's inspiring. Please turn up your volume. I'd love to hear your commentary better. Thanks.

What filler rod do you use on alum ? After planishing im noticing hairline cracks

Such a great shape on that tail section, mate!

Excellent work. Would it be possible to do a reverse curve in the English wheel? It's just that most home hobbyist don't have a power hammer. Thx

Really nice work from a guy who obviously loves his work.

Coach building is just the best job in the world, ain’t it?!😍

I see some Peter Tomassini in this young man

Thanks for the tour. This is going to be fun. I happen to live where the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Company ended up. I had the privilege of using Glenn Pray's shop for parts of some of my projects. I think he would approve of your design and style.

Could you coment what state and area your coach Buildin shop is

Awesome work mate.

l am 74 yo l take my hat of to you as a true tradesman (craftsman). l love the other builds you are doing as well.

I really like these sped-up video with voice over. I'd like to see a couple of little asides where you show a close up of the panel and say "It's not right here, so i'll do this here to fix it" just to get a handle on what you're looking for and how you decide how to fix it. It's noticing and catching those small defects and fixing them before they become big problems that makes for a good panel.

What thickness and grade of the aluminuim sheeting do you use.

Enjoying your videos! Love all your tips.

Seems like a weight load cell to show how much pressure being exerted would be helpful while using an English wheel.

that is a lot of metal work .. and just think that is almost half a car .. still another half and the hood .. roughly how long to build a car like that 2 or 3 years ??

Really enjoy your videos, i'm trying to get my head around everything and just doing simple repair patches, it's very pleasing when I get it right lol, thanks from NZ.

Very nice and well carried out reverse , one of the hardest shape to make and understand . Well done !

I appreciate the videos. But to make them as good as possible, please try to make the transitions in the video as smooth as your panels! It would be better to fade the music in and out. Maybe soft background music during voice overs?

Are you using the English wheel solely for smoothing/planishing the surface? Or is it simultaneously stretching? Thanks for the video

Your videos can never be too long!

Hey Mate Nice work as usual 👍 Really enjoying them 🤗 What Grade and thickness Aluminium ? P.S I sent you an email with a reverse curve piece, did you get it ? Cheers Andy from FABCOAT

Were you overlapping those two panels? I couldn't tell.

cannot hear what you are saying in the last segment of welding the quarter

Hi Aiden, Audio from your footage seem to spill in over your voice .. at around 13:30 .. Enjoying your videos keep em coming. 👍

Great idea And great you are coming to visit New Zealand later this year. I am looking forward to seeing you at Autorama Hamilton

What grade material are you using for making the panels and filler wire?

Looks amazing, thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us, it's really appreciated and inspiring.

Great work as usual. Great hearing your methods as your working thru them cheers

Nicely done!

As usual excellent content and presentation.

You make it look easy.

Gday Aiden Man that English wheel and wire brush get noisey😊 Actually I was watching you snip the excess material and one thing nobody talks about and every novice does is never snip to the end of the jaws, it might be just worth mentioning Thanks for the good videos and information

Can you please share your welder settings/preference for tig welding aluminum?

a true artist very impressed

Really enjoying the style and format you have going on. The voice over and details are all there without the sometimes painful blow by blow some other have in their content. There is always a lot to unpack and pick up in each presentation. Oh the quote "I don't try for perfect is doesn't exist" love the honesty

very nice work .. thankyou for the video showing your work ..

Hey Ayden Nice work Buddy 👍 I Really appreciate your Posts ,you are very talented and inspiring ! 👍 Cheers Andy (FABCOAT)

Do you ever gas weld aluminum? Have you ever had issues with TIG welds cracking in aluminum?

Amazing work,

Hello Ayden, you have a very interesting video series there. Lots of good tips...very helpful. Respect for your good work! Good tip on how far to work with the thumb nails. What distance do you set between the thumb nail tools, it needs some air so the material can thicken as it shrinks. Is there a kind of "rule of thumb / basic rule" at which intervals one shrinks? And if it is to shrink deeper, in how many "levels" to put the shrinkage? Some people draw very precise grids on the sheet metal and run their shrinkage as if according to a system. When you shrink, do you have a rule for how much you shrink the material? It must have shrunk more because it expands again when smoothed with the wheel or power hammer. Greetings Jan
