Never thought of that. Great idea. My Brother in Law, a horologist, engineer and tool maker made me a folding jig for tapered signal and lamp posts (I make commissioned working lamps). The chisel idea is great! Thanks for mentioning it.
@@bobsmodelrailways hi Bob. It's always good to share info. I'll have a lamp in return (joking). I've been a precision engineer for decades but never stop learning from others
Good morning Ian. A late Happy New year 🥳 Love watching your videos 👍🏻 I find them very interesting and informative 😀 Looking forward to seeing more excellent videos in 2022 cheers Stevie
Happy New Year Ian! There's something incredibly hypnotic about watching solder flow into those folded corners! I'm an N Scaler, so etched bogies are beyond my eyesight, but love to watch a master in action.
Great video, got to watching a lot of your videos recently and they're good to watch and learn a trick or two, especially with your weathering. Happy new year!

Looking forward in seeing the project videos coming forward! Thanks for the update!
Great episode really, rare to see this type of small supplier detailing posted
Another enjoyable watch. I use wood chisels when I'm folding in much the same fashion as you do

Not possible without my magnifying lamp thing!! Solder flowing into corners is very satisfying 😃

is there an N scale of those?
Not from MJT (dart castings).
Could be from other manufacturers?
Hello dear sir, what make/ model is your pe bending tool and stockist? Thanks in advance…… Cam
