In rod we trust.
Indeed
yes homer
Afrotechmods? I thought you were dead! Please post more videos! 😀
nice
I see what you did there. 1/8” = 3.175 mm
Dave it’s 3:40 am here in the states. I need to sleep and this is just fueling my insomnia.
Probably a bit late now, but if you slide a bit of metal tube over the straight part of the stock it concentrates the bending forces at the part you're trying to bend and you can get a more accurate bend. Of course that means you have to have a bit of metal tube with an internal diameter only a bit bigger than the rod....
Stage 2 of Lockdown: Fix everything around the house.
Good enough for Australia isn't important. The real question:
Are they good enough for Mrs. EEVblog?
Nice to see OG EEVBlog lab ;)
You can actually park a car in there?! I guess that's possible when you have lab and a bunker...
"How to Bend Stainless Steel Rod"
or: "How to make Misses EEVblog happy" :D
Glad you were able to find that 3.18 mm rod. 😁
Yeah - the good metric stuff LOL
"just the tip, trust me" - lol
Back to doing video in the garage again.....
EEVblog returning to it's roots.
I would have put the 2 screwdrivers at the desired distance, coil the rod around 25 times, then cut the unwanted section on the middle with an angle grinder and grind the ends a bit so to remove the cutting-edge
They would all spring back open a fair way.
That's what heat is for I guess :)
@@6581punk or a hammer.
Nice AvE reference with the "Just the tip" bit. Keep your screwdriver in a vise.
Wonderful and funny video! I'm trying to figure out what gage/dia ss rod I need for seaplane upholstery hold down, and you gave me the answer.
Getting nostalgic for the garage lab days now.
BUT! Did these pass Mrs EEVblog's quality control? You've not told us...
I love the innuendos :D
When you bend the rod, do all the electrons bend as well?
All electrons will fall out.
Yes, the electrons bend. There is no signs (arc) of them escaping.
Metal has a grain and bending it like that does tend to stress it and weaken it. Which is why casting and forging exists.
If you apply enough force even time will eventually bend
(And I'm not even kidding)
I want to see how they are used then
Such an amazing achievement!
Use a 12" shifter and vice or two shifters to twist the hooks back to the same plane.
Mrs. EEVBlog would probably prefer that when you're alone in the garage, you use a vise and not a vice.
Have you tried to use a tube to help you bend instead of bare hands?
Nicely done! And practical!
Just saved my £90 on a cheap indian metal bending jig, Thanks for sharing!!
Bender Rodriguez would be proud
Stainless can be brittle. Heat the bend area a with hot air rework gun. Just my 2c worth.
Careful with those old stanleys, can't get em like that anymore and all the new ones are garbage.
Is it good enough for Australia? Only if you hold it upside down.
Please rename video "how to earn brownie points with the wife"
Just did this, worked great!
318 Stainless Steel is not 3.18mm. 318 Refers to the amount of carbon to iron in the stainless.
I think you are thinking of 316 which it probably is. 3.18mm is near to dead on 1/8" so it IS that imperial rubbish :P
@@WaynesWorld999 I think you are thinking of 304 which it probably is as low as Stainless Steel rating goes hence why it is is the most common stainless steel usually used in kitchen utensils.
i know, I was not saying that. This is 304 stainless, and it is 3.18mm diameter, 1/8 inch.
@@EEVblog2 - In Germany we have something what is called "Zoll-Stock (Ger.)", in English you can translate it with "inch stick".
In former time they printed inch and cm lines on the stick (left side inch-lines, right side cm-lined). Nowadays they only print on it the cm-lines (of course with millimetre lines between the cm lines)
I think that we will always use inch, because we have some standards which we can not change so easy. We have 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1, ... , 2 Inch pipes / garden hose and so on.
Dave the steel bender
just like a brought one!
Good on ya Dave. ;)
A little bit of heat (SS is fairly forgiving), and some 1/4" id tube would help.
"Just a Tip, I'm telling just a Tip". Worth mentioning :)
Thanks! I need to do this for a Rohde & Schwarz fold out foot.
1:13 - Louis Rossmann wants his royalty. LOL
"Little bit of a bend-ski."
"Just put the tip in", said the actress to the bishop.
Dave, nice to share your experience and skills.
And I always thought this is an American thing. :-)
Teller: "I did this and that ... "
Listener: "How cool."
Teller: "... and I did it one handed."
Listener: "Awesome."
I was wrestling a bear ... and I did it one handed. :-P
Impressive fixturing idea from an electronics guru. Missed the debugging, I mean deburring step.
Sorry to break it to you Dave, but that's 1/8" stainless rod you've got there. Yep, that imperial rubbish :)
They only sell that crap in 'murica
Same pile, just with a metric measurement. Just take the label with the 1/8" off slip on a new label with some oddball metric measurement, and voila, a metric product. Just like that 900mm electrostatic mat that is actually 3ft. Either system works fine, but applying metric measurements to things that are made to a convenient imperial measurement, ugh... stop doing that. At least leave both on there is it was made to an imperial measurement.
Thinking maybe that was the joke..?
Whoosh....
Ya gonna have to show us exactly what they are going to be used for... 10/10
No timelapse of you bending a couple hundred of those rods? Or do you have it in your secret Onlyfans account?
this is a win win situation
The other day I found someone who said bending copper tube lengthens the tube by an amount my brain is too tired to recall. If true, I wonder if the same happens with your rod. Have you noticed if it grows, maybe by the rod's radius? I'm not sure if it is enough to matter to the misses, more of a curiosity really.
mark one eyeball is that reference to a book about a beer can?
I sense an electro mechanical contraption video from Dave ... in the future.
Yep, that's good enough for Australia
Chamfer the ends!
Sloppy! :D
that is a 1/8" rod in freedom units
Wire you doing this?
The righy question is: How an electronics engineer bends a stainless steel wire?
Mechanic:"it's thin wire"
Electronic:"it's a whole rod!!!"
;-)))
This is how it's done for ages right?
Genius ❤️ thank you!
NO KIDDN. JUST THE TIP. TRUST YOU ME. YOU DAMN RIGHT. LOL. LOL
This were you vlog started a decade ago, isn’t it?
Could use one of them induction heaters.
Just looking at you holding the boltcutters... no mention to cut the right length... eg don't cut it in half.
what the diameter of the rod ??? thks
I hope Rod finds this video helpful.
Can’t you just caress the tip until it changes shape on its own (like Uri Geller!!!)
High marks for doing it one-handed! Stomach full and balls empty!💪🏻
I know this is good enough for Australia but how does that compare to good enough for (US) government work?
and no-ones talking about the "just the tip" comment
Is there a convenient supplier of SS rod around that you go to? Seeking 6mm or 8mm for a project. Bunnings don't seem to stock it, and online sources seem to be more industrial suppliers as you need to log in just to get a price. Thanks
HEY Joe Here. Buy A Bunch Of Heavy Gauge Paper Clips And Cut Them To Length. That's faster
Could you use the vice to clamp the wire into a tight curve?
The curve is limited by the screwdriver shaft diameter. Can't go shorter radius than that.
Just the tip....and just for a minute.
Hollywood swing?
I have an Inanimate Carbon Rod. Can you show us how to bend it?
"None of this imperial rubbish." 3.18mm = ⅛ inch
vidznstuff1
"3.18mm...none of that imperial rubbish", lol.
3.175mm = 1/8th inch
Yeah bending 1/8" rod is a pain to be sure.
None of that imperial rubbish.
Haha... I see wat you did there Dave.... 3.18mm is basically 1/8 inch imperial rubbish 🤣🤣🤣
You have bolt cutters.. oh yeah, never mind.
You need to get yourself a tripod.
"None of that Imperial rubbish." Then why is it exactly 1/8"?
Wish I could get 3.18mm rod here is US.
Bend yourself a camera tripod.
Dave and mechanical things do not mix well.
just the tip
Wouldn't be anywhere near a good enough for England.
My flabber is gasted.
Bendski!
Jack of all trades 🍄💦
Fran just uploaded too... poor Fran ☹
@@teenee4 Fran is awesome
@@kristiandawe85 😛
@@teenee4 Fran also made stainless steel hooks?
Like a bought one
Just the tip. Pullbacks.. hmmmm what are we talking about..
😂 can you bend 10 mm rod
What...No Flux?
No, Stainless has a chrome-oxide layer to keep the impurities out of the crystal structure.
Trust me…🤣
Dont trust dave he sounds like a infomercial.
Hahahahahaha
"none of that imperial rubbish" ? 3.18mm dia... um... that's 1/8" imperial rubbish doofus
lol. 3.18mm . you mean .125" none of that imperial rubbish.
