This is escalating quickly.... I likey!
Very, very cool. Someone was a good boy in '22.
Very nice Donovan! I can't wait to see the work that these tools will enable you to do. That English wheel looks pretty cool. Is that a Princess Auto product?
Oh hell yeah. Can't wait to see what you have planned with the dimple dies! Also what you can cook up with an English wheel.
This is escalating quickly.... I likey!
ahh get ready to start smashing your finger tips while learning the English wheel. But I got a feeling you will master it here pretty quickly!Posting this in The Juggernaut thread and not in the “What did you do to your shop today” thread, because I’m going to be trying to step up my fabrication game in 2023 BIG TIME.
Spent a lot of $$$ this holiday break, and have got some really cool new toys with more on the way. Already picked up a full set of dimple dies, in sizes of 1/2”, 3/4”, 1”, 1 1/4”, 1 1/2”, and 1 3/4”…

Looks like I’m going to be learning how to wheel!
I was going to stop there, but decided this morning to pull the trigger on a couple more things. Got onto the @eastwood.com website, and ordered a powered drive system for my bead roller…

…as well as a table for it:

These two accessories will make my bead rolling operations much easier and more efficient/comfortable/convenient. No more having to recruit a second person for anything, I’m especially stoked about the drive motor. Speed adjustable, and foot pedal controlled, this is going to be a huge game changer.
So excited about these new tools, and can’t wait to start putting them to use!
So the parts that you're getting from Summit will replace the zip ties that are holding the feed and return hoses that are going to the tank now Donovan? I'd like to see it after its all finished with the new parts you have coming. I think I will like it much more then. Thanks for posting the explanation and photos up to now. I'm assuming that there won't be any kind of vapour canister on the car, and that's why you ran the vent hose to the filler neck?
