Gonna watch it a couple of more times before I whip out the ball-peen on my '73, but that DVD is just what I needed to build up my confidence......Thanks John! IPB Image

I just know I would've gotten half way through beatin' the hell out of my fender with a ball-peen and ran out of the garage screaming......"what have I done!" Good to see the hammer/dolly/beater bag in action. Nice to know metal is pretty forgiving. Amazing to watch someone truely skilled at their trade "go at it"! IPB Image

So lets see ....got a couple of ball peens, need to pick up more bandaids, got metal snips, need to buy some finger splints....and more bandaids, buy an old leather purse...and more bandaids while I'm there, need a small beater bag....hmmmm, when did I get that tetnis shot

Thanks guys! I only used one bandaid for the whole time I was making the video....unrelated to the work. Just be sure to move your thumb out of the way about that thousandth hit or so. I expect questions, so fire away once you've had a little more time viewing. I generally watch a metalshaping video 2 or 3 times to get all the little stuff. It can be pretty boring, but I always miss something the first couple of times I watch.

should I start on the 914 or the 328????? I guess it is which ever is closer to the hammer first...

Kevin, maybe you should get a lady friend to buy the purse. IPB Image

But what else am I going to carry all of the medical supplies in?

Think I might start this weekend, weather permitting.
