    You are missed Ron, you were always so generous sharing your extensive skill but most of all your knowledge, thank you!

    Awesome video! I love youtube! It's a wonderful place where we all can learn amazing things from incredible teachers that take time out of their lives to share a piece of their soul with us with great videos like this. Mr. Ron has passed on and we still get to learn from him. Just amazing! Thank you!

    Thank you for a great video. I have been lucky enough to work with a few men who are true craftsmen, shaping metal, leading seams. Before everything became disposable, these craftsmen fixed or made everything. It is a pleasure to see one at work. It proves to me that I am still teachable and that there is still much to learn.

    Some people call it art when they see someone putting paint on canvas. THIS is art. I would like to sit in his shop and watch while drinking a cup of coffee. But, I'm doing that here at home.

    I love watching your videos, Sir. Thank you for taking the time to make them, so that a person that can't get up to Michigan, can still learn from you. Hope all is well! Stay safe.

    Having recently attended a course, there is nothing like the personal attention given to each student by Ron himself. Any error is quickly analyzed and corrected. This video compliments the course very well.

  • @DivineMisterAdVentures

    Ten points, Ron. That looks like a great workstation design. You did this video in 2012 - and we're still learning!

    Excellent video. short and sweet demo of these tools. A quiet shop w/ no distractions was perfect. Also very refreshing to not have to listen to twanging guitars, not that there is anything wrong w/ guitars, just not while we're trying to hear the work sounds and descriptions

    Super good instructor! I restore old military equipment with lots of metal missing or rusted away. The hoods and fenders are 3 or 4 times as thick as a regular civilian car fender. Will these tools work on my projects also?

  • @joselacera8716
    @joselacera8716 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    SIR I THANK YOU VERY MUCH I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS MACHINE WORK I SEEN IT IN HARBOR FREIGHT BUT I SAID THAT HAS TO BE DIFFICULT TO USE BUT YOU ARE AMASTER

    • @snoopu2601
      @snoopu2601 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you have a welder you could make a metal working machine to roll the metal. I have seen home made one's that people took two metal wheels the bottom whee they welded to a jack the tip wheel stayed in one place. It worked well for being hone made. The shrinking machine you can weld a ball to an air hammer with diffrent tips to put on the air hammer.

    Ron, Have you tried/used the newer Mittler Bros. beaders, with the deeper 'throat', and, the correspondingly larger wheel diameter sets?
