vlog no.4. In this video I show how Imake various panels some on jigs others freeformed - all hand crafted. www.metalshapi... for the DVD (new site coming soon) www.classicmet... for quality metalwork.
David , thanks for taking the time to share with the rest of us. I have found your DVD to be the best of several I own. There are several good ones out there but yours is the one I always go back to when I need an idea for how to do something. It was really the only one I needed.
Thanks - Ha ha, there's a dislike button so people use it, It's fine. At least they are watching. I personally have never pressed the dislike button an any video.
Well as I said when I started making these videos I am doing them for fun, but actually there is quite a bit if information in the videos. I called them Vlogs and not 'how too' videos. all the best. David
Hi David, I bought your fantastic DVD a number of years ago. It sits on a table next to my laptop so I have it as quick reference or just to re-watch for educational entertainment. I was utterly shocked at how I was able to use your method of gas welding panels without warping them into the next county after all those years of doing it the wrong way. You say the market is flooded with DVDs now but I haven't seen one to compare to your style. Practical demonstrations of how to build real world parts instead of being made with fancy/expensive equipment will win out all the time for us "normal" folks with little money for all the toys. Keep up the vlogs. They are great. I enjoy the personal side of the productions as well. Being from "across the pond from you", I like seeing the countryside there. As for the plannishing hammer.. please show it! Record your progress. Post it here or at least have it as a build instruction video available for a small amount of money as a download on your site. Just as a disclaimer...I am in no way associated with David... just an admirer of his work, talent and down to earth style. ;) Joe
I have to say I love your work! It is nothing short of beautiful! The couple of videos of yours has taught me so much - you now have a new sub!!! And I definitely want to see the planisher build!!!!
Thanks for these great videos. I also have had your DVD for probably over a year now and always enjoy watching it. I highly recommend this video to anybody who is thinking of doing metal work (make it your first choice if wondering which video to order). I'm also glad to hear your opinion on gas welding sheet metal as everyone thinks I'm outdated/crazy to prefer it over MIG,
Dave, great vid as always. Would love to see more vids of jeep build and I'd be happy to purchase your next DVD if another installment is ever available. Cheers. E.
hi Paul, the 'press' was something I knocked up quickly almost thirty years ago from some scrap metal and Iv'e been using it ever since.The pnumatic jack is a fairly recent addition. I had a lorry jack before that.
Thats great thanks for the reply. I purchased your Video was it was first released and the content was brilliant! suprised you have not done some more as a series?
Hi paul, I employed someone and trained them after I made the DVD, this meant that there was never time to make any more. Probably the biggest mistake I ever made. Now the market is flooded with DVDs. But I have some plans for more tutorials.
Thanks David...... you are right about other DVD's ..... BUT not as good as yours! Room in the market for a Brit who knows what they are doing ie how to make stuff
That Bantam jeep? We seriously need a vehicle like that even in the 21st Century. Durable, mechanically simple and affordable to buy. Yes, there would be issues with emissions, but you can't tell me that can't be solved.
Thanks for the video. I would like to see more about the planisher build. I assume you make your own slippers that you use in the video. Could you touch on making them? Thanks again
I am working on the planisher in between other stuff but I will do a video of the build at some point if there is enough interest. I will see what I can do on the slappers, though we call them flippers here. David
A pleasure to watch.
Holy Crap!!! Extremely impressed!!
I've recently gotten into making panels, mainly for tractors at the moment but your videos have helped me a lot. thank you.
Bought your DVD several years ago and great to see you on TH-cam. A true craftsman and much respect...(and more than a little envy..:-)
David , thanks for taking the time to share with the rest of us. I have found your DVD to be the best of several I own. There are several good ones out there but yours is the one I always go back to when I need an idea for how to do something. It was really the only one I needed.
Very Nice work!!! It's always great to watch a pro doing his specialty.
Impressed by the craftsmanship shown here, and also the large and small tools used in your videos. I think I need to order this DVD.
I'll bed your arms are powerful from all that hammer work.
Always excellent, David-Always ✅
Great craftsmanship!
Very interesting to watch, but hard to see how someone can dislike a true craftsman work.......well done.
Thanks - Ha ha, there's a dislike button so people use it, It's fine. At least they are watching. I personally have never pressed the dislike button an any video.

excellent work David you make it look so easy. surprised you've never been approached for TV work.
Ha Ha, I dont have the face for TV.
Wonderful to watch - thank you! :) I'd suggest you offer face to face courses if you don't already? I did some years ago and loved them!

Film making is one of my hobbies so as and when I get time...
Always interesting to see a video

I intend to make more videos for sale but first I have to get my new website on line at https ://www.metalshapingzone.com
Perfect work!!! I have question... what tools You use at 5:40 minuts? 🤔
