Having the room for a machine shop and the money to buy the tools to make the tools would be a very pleasant way to spend my days. I suspect I will start with the harbor freight wheel and then weld up something using the bits later.
I have a feeling you may want to weld a super structure around your frame. I wound up with 1/4" wall tubing on mine to get it stiff enough to shape the sheet. If you're just using it to smooth out walnuts, then you may not need that much stiffness. Is the bottom wheel steel? Lastly, you'll see how out of round your anvils are as you start working on panels. If they aren't concentric, you can pop them on a lathe and use a belt sander to true them up... It makes all the difference... Oh, and I need to find a scrap yard like you have!!! I need those linear bearings!!!
Great job Marsh. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the process in detail. Your video skills are impressive too. Looking forward to seeing a lot more of your work.
I’m in sacramento, CA, but I have seen similar scrap yards all over the USA. In fact, I make it my mission to seek them out any time I visit another city.
that thing you found at the scrap yard you said you didn't know what it was, donno if it would interest you but it appears to be a feeder for press. If I'm right it clamps and feed the coil into a die and should also take the bend out when you have flats that don't get hit in the part
12:37 - I feel like you might need to strengthen the diagonals on the frame because it's ever so slightly bowing upwards from the movement through the anvil, lessening the tension on the plate, rendering the wheel less useful.
So u should weld a 2" trailer hitch tube under your bench flush then u can weld 2"tube to tools like this English wheel and others that u don't use as much so its got a good mounting place but swappable to other tools
Thank you for another Very nice build video it came out awsome and can't wait to see your video on the tailgate Also I think that your going to have to do some research on the wheels bc I do believe that it would help you be able to do a lot more stuff that you were planning on doing with it bc I can't remember who said it but I'm pretty sure that 1 or both of the wheels have a bevel on them and if it's only 1 of the them I'm not to sure if it's the hammer wheel or the anvil wheel but it's just something that might help you take this all the way to doing your tailgate as nice as possible and thanks again for another great video
Talk about a rabbit hole. The anvil wheels run a wide range and the different amounts of curvature on them makes a big difference in the effect they produce. I guess you'd call it a learning curve.
Man that scrap metal yard is awesome, not sure if we have one of those up here in Seattle, too much moisture to keep it all outside, the steel would rust pretty quickly.
@@WildmanTech Good to hear because those are the wheels I have. But I cringe when I see the wheels bang together when the sheet out at the edge. I don't see how the soft iron won't dent from that but I'll take your word for it and build it.

I had never heard of an English wheel. This will be useful
Really cool build. This channel is so underrated
Well done Marsh, that was a great build and will be fun in the shop to create the tailgate

That was a great project.
I am always amazed at the treasures you make with discarded materials. Keep up the good work!

omg! 😋Where are you located at that you have that equipment in a junk yard?

Nice video and build. Can't wait to see you use it for the Econoline. Mahalo for sharing! : )

I find stuff like that out there all the time. The heavier something is, the less it’s worth as the day it has to be moved approaches.
Nice job....great idea with the castors...keep up the great work

Interesting you would say so. I subsequently did exactly that! th-cam.com/video/Ctk2wE-JwSU/w-d-xo.html
@@MarshWildman - Oh, sorry, I didn't notice the date on this video.
@@SnorrioK no need to apologize. The next project I used it for, that exact problem became a problem and I added additional gussets.
nice!
Great job! I admire how you can just build things, engineer knowledge for sure!
Almost everything you see here is the first time I tried it. I'm learning as I go.
Awesome video!!!! Exactly what I was looking for.

That is an excellent tip! I may apply that to a few tools I have!

There are several in seattle. The question is whether you're able to cultivate a relationship that will allow you to rummage around.
🇧🇷 good job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻,
You are Amazing.
That is all.
I the the anvil wheel has radius corners to aid in the dome
I've ground them to add some radius. Very likely I'll make several as I learn to use it.
I think the "hammer" upper wheel as well as the anvil wheels should be hard steel not cast iron or they won't last long.
@@billshiff2060 they’ve been working for years without issue, and can be easily replaced if necessary.

Hi good job which size metal profil you use 50mmx50mmx5mm?
2x2x1/8" and I later added gussets to the corners because it had a lot of flex.
Inside 2x2x1/8" you put 1.5x1.5 or some diferent i will be try bulid olso. Your lloknlike very good
First, it's been awhile, looks like you dropped a few pounds, looks good. I haven't used the wheel since I closed my body shop in 91. Nice build.
I lost 70 pounds using the Noom app. Gained back about ten for the winter, but I'm feeling pretty good. Thanks!
I'm looking at a factory made one for $175 on Craig's list right now!
You can get a pretty nice one on Amazon for $129. amzn.to/3vK5Bhc
