    Jere - Hey, you don't fool around, do you? Congratulations of making such quick progress on making the hammefrorm for our project. How great that you had a stash of oak and poplar, and didn't have to 'fly it in'! I'll be eager to start on my portion as soon as you ship the buck and the first part to me.

    What a surprise this colab was for me to find today!
    Two masters taking on one project in two completely different methods for the job at hand.
    Mr. Ron gave me some really helpful advice on Easter morning no less... All to help prevent marring up the finish on multiple compound curves that were to be sent through you shrinker/stretcher. I can't thank him enough.

    this series is going to be very educational. Thanks to Ron we've learned what wood to use and why it's preferred. Can't wait for part 2, and seeing Ron's contributions as well. Thanks Jere! 👍👍😎👍👍

      Hi Joel:
      Yes. With two people making the same part in totally different ways there should be some good info flying about.
      Thanks Jere

    I knew your name sounded familiar. I got a wall chart poster of yours with steel stock sizes and weight from my mentor. I see that you still sell them. Every fabrication and blacksmith shop needs one.
    I'm looking forward to these classes. This a neat challenge.

      Hello Mossy:
      Yes. They are quite handy for any shop. Just like in blacksmithing, the more times you see different people making the same thing, the more you learn.

    I am really looking forward to seeing what you do with flow forming. I have made a lot of parts and a lot of money using that technique and I have a drawer full of "ends" for my rivet gun made from every thing from aluminum, various plastics, phenolic and others. Can't wait to see where you go with it.

    • @jerekirkpatrick2092

      Hello Edward:
      It should be quite interesting to see how other people accomplish a task. Being a blacksmith since 1973 I have had the opportunity to look at the movement of metal in a different way. Seeing material where it wants to go instead of where you want it to go.
      Thanks for watching and I hope to get some feedback from you after the 3rd (shaping the piece) video is presented. Jere

      @@jerekirkpatrick2092 You can bet I'll be watching. Almost all of the flow forming I have done has been into a female die with the action being stretching so I'll be curious to see how it works from the "outside" of the part or if you elect to make a female tool from your wooden hammer form. FWIW, I have successfully stretched .060" 1100 dead soft aluminum to a bit more than 150% of its original size w/o annealing with only one "blowout" in about 60 parts. I will say, it's getting pretty tight by the time I'm done.You would have the same percentage of stretch if you elect to make the 3" diameter by stretching, but there are other ways.
      Regards,
      Ed Taylor

    That piece looks like a NASCAR stock car exhaust outlet that came out just in front of the rear tire. They made us put the little divider inside so it would look like two pipes for some dumb reason.

    Maple would be better than poplar or alder. That wheelbarrow handle is likely ash or hickory, either of which would be as good as maple.

      Hello Thomas:
      I have no idea what the piece was off of. It was on the ground not near any car. I think it is for the defroster under the dash. It has a divider inside so I think it splits the hot air to the right and left sides of the windshield.

    This should an interesting series, for sure.
    You have a section just for exotic woods at your place. I'm impressed.
    By the way.. The "buy me a coffee" system won't take a non-US Paypal. How rude. ;)
