I came here when I read your comment on the video of Pask Makes where he makes his Fly Press stand. You did a great job making the bending tools. Metal working is not really my piece of cake but this was really interesting. Your video (shooting and editing) skills are awesome. Your channel doesn't exist very long yet. I guess your experience with making and editing videos you gained already before. You deserve many more subscribers and views . Stay safe.
Wow, thanks so much for your kind words! I'm really grateful you saying that and you taking the time to check out my channel. Comments like this make it all worth while! Much appreciated 😁✌
nice work, will the flypress stand not move a lot when you use it. mine tries to move when i tested it on the floor and it doesnt have wheels. I would be interested in seeing how you got on.
Yeah, ours at work have to be bolted down, but we use them for punching etc, so they have some force going through them. I just use this one for really light applications at the moment, so its fine to be on casters. Plus I'm in such a small workshop (single garage) that I wouldn't be able to use it if I couldn't wheel it away from the wall. I'd definitely prefer to have it bolted to the floor though! Just having to work with what I've got at the minute. Not had problems so far, but I've been using it more and more, so time will tell. Thanks for the feedback!
Not trying to be a troll but as far as i understand the shaft collar needs to be solid bar, not a pipe. so that all the pressure exerted on the shaft doesnt warp the shaft. another reason why people tend to put shaft collars in the shaft too. hope this helps you something for future builds. good work though.
Yeah, I've had a issue with that, not from pressure exerted from the fly press though, because as I explained I'm only using it for light applications (which is how I get away with it being on casters), but from the bolt that tightens to the tooling! It's caused an indentation, so when I put the tooling in, it sits off centre slightly because of it. The pressing pressure isn't an issue right now, as I've since shortened the shaft to have the tooling right up inside it, so that the force isn't driven through it. Cheers for the comment and tips, my dude! I'll get some round bar for it sometime in the future. I'm using it more and more so it would be a good idea. I still need to make some proper t-bolt fastenings and clamps for it too!
Super proud of you buddy glad to see you blending all your skills together!
