- When the tool you need doesn’t exist what do you do?…… you make it!
I found myself needing to try and get the rest quarter better but I wasn’t happy with my outcome so I spent no more than a hour making what I think is this really handy and great idea that is a mini mobile English wheel that you can apply right to the source of the damage.
I was over the moon with the outcome and I’m sure I’ll use this a lot more in the future.
Oh and sorry for calling It mole grips and not a C-clamp 🤦♂️

Great video 👍 This opens all sorts of possibilities nylon wheel different radius profiles cool
Cheers Sean . Yes it dose I completely agree 👍
Yessss sacrifice some roller blade or skateboard wheels. Now we're cooking.
Skateboard wheels, you can get lots of different densities of them, and they all mount the same way.
I use them on my bead roller.
Grate rob 👌
Clever,, Patent that thing bud! You’ll see the big guys copy that now.
I love this idea !
Well done - GREAT idea! Thanks for a real time saver.
Wonderful idea thanks
That's pretty slick. I've wondered about making something similar for quite a while.
Now that's clever 👏
that's a good one, actually never crossed my mind anything like this...
Cheers Dom 👍
Brilliant give us more please 🙏
I sure will! I’ve got loads of quirky tools I’ve made for lots of jobs
Bloody brilliant!
Great work
Absolutely Brilliant.
I could hear how much the finish improved even after one pass ...very nice little tool
This could be a metalshaper tom tool to sell with a bit of work
Indeed. Just wish I had the time to make them!
@@Metal_shaper_tom yes sadly thats the way lots of excellent ideas go but atleast you can share it here
awesome ty
great bit of kit. i was thinking of doing something similar on my van, thanks to my mates crap driving....
Amazing tool!!
Awesome idea. Love your tool making ideas.
Cheers Angus . They do seem popular and I’ve got plenty more I could show 👍
Very Resourceful.
neat idea👌
Excellent idea ‼️👏👍
Useful if I need it when working on my ‘35 Austin Seven Ruby’s body.
Brilliant. I’m after Austin seven for myself 👍
Cool tool fella & a good idea 👍
Cheers John 👍
Genius 👌
awesome little tool, I bet you will constantly find uses for it
Cheers Danny, yeah this one will definitely come in handy!
Well done!
I've seen smaller ones used for tipping an edge, usually on HVAC tin.
That’s a brilliant idea I’ll bear that one in mind!
Yep ill make one of those
If you had a way to swap out the rollers that could also be an edge roller (bead roller?). Just the powered ones but handheld.
Don't forget to let us know when those get mass produced so the non-welders can have one too.
Yeah good idea. Unfortunately I just don’t have the time to develop it at the moment
Thats neat .👍
Thanks very much 👍
Brilliant, I’m gonna have to build one
Awesome. Good luck with it 👍
I will let you know how it comes out
Specs on the bearings and bar stock?
What ever you have laying and a bit of imagination. I’ll have a look at what I used tomorrow 👍
Maui ask why you used a tig welder when a stick welder could of gotten a bigger it and been stronger? Still new to this why I’m asking.
But Tig is strong enough for this process,it’s quick, easy, strong and clean . I haven’t used stick in over 20 years
I know you wouldn't be able to control the pressure, but I wonder if you could get a similar result, with one of the "wheels" having neodymium magnets inside and no physical connection between the two? It would allow better access in some cases..
That’s a new one on me!
would really like to know if you could make a set of metal hub caps using the english wheel
I don’t see why you couldn’t. The tricky bit would be the return that would clip on to the wheel .
Great job. Just need to make a long reach one for roof repairs. Jo,s fab lab made one but I can’t find the link.
Thanks .I’m all ready working on the longer reach one 👍 I’ll look that channel up .
@@Metal_shaper_tom he does some mad things. Old and modern but done well. His early videos are the best.
Amazing!!! What size bearings?
Thanks unfortunately I don’t know off the top of my head . I’m sure you can make it with whatever you have laying around.
what size of bearing do i need to make what you made
I’m not sure . You may have to give it a google and see what you can get
Before I as can you please say what size the bearing?
Sorry I can’t remember
So how much for a new fender ?
😂
