This should be shown to School kids doing metal work, I think you're a naturally gifted School Teacher without even knowing it. You could throw in some annealing too and explain work hardening 👍. But I'm shure poeple of all ages can take something from your fun light hearted lessons too.
Yep, keep em Rollin' out Ryan... boilermaker of 20years learning with every episode on this channel. I love that you don't have any million dollar tooling and it's predominantly manual machinery or improvised self made tooling. It's more than just the medium that you use, it's the tooling that's interesting too!
I don’t really work metal, but I had a couple bends in the edge of my rear fender on my motorcycle that I was able to flatten out with the first shrinking method from this video. Thank you!
So good to see in-depth how this is done, and have a clear explanation of what you're aiming to achieve and why you're doing each step. Also great seeing multiple ways of achieving the same thing. Keep 'em coming!
I used to work with metal , but it was generally done with heavy-duty equipment . We took rolls of flat steel and turned it into things like corrugated siding and flashing for construction . And since nothing is ever perfectly straight in construction . We had to use some stretching and shrinking techniques . But like I said all of it was done with heavy-duty equipment . The brake that we used was probably the smallest tool . And it was 25 ft wide , with hydraulics running it instead of your arm .
RUclips is my go-to for how-tos. This is perfect. And as a body tech this will help with me metal straightening before i go to town with glaze. Keep it up!
I feel like I'm being taught by captain America, love what you do my friend 😊 as a disabled content creator making my own way around things is essential, especially with tools and processes so learning how to better make those tools is extremely valuable to me, so thank you for putting so much effort into your videos Ryan, lots of love from a lil tiktoker in the UK
The in depth-videos like this one are amazing. I want to eventually get good at bodywork on cars, as to keep them on the road/out of the scrapyard. Now that is a complex thing of course, and I'm nowhere near that level, but videos like these really help me visualize the type and amount of work it would take to do certain repairs, as well as how to go about it. So far, this is the only channel where I've found this kind of in-depth metalworking specifically applied to cars, and I'm really grateful for your guys' content!
Ok... so now I have to watch all these episodes. Why couldn't you be less interesting, useful or brilliant? (Great stuff, just the right level of knowledge conveyed to encourage me to up my game)..
Great tutorial video! While shaping, how much stretching and shrinking will you use? Please go ahead with the cheap machines, since those are the ones non-professionals may buy.
The piece you are making will tell you what it needs, if spots need more shrinking or stretching in spots, it's just about getting to the point where you can look/feel the metal and understand what is happening
Dont know why i dont get all your video's at time of release when im on all notifications. I had to go searching for this one. It's probably a little late now but yes more of these videos like this please. I would like to know more about plannishing hammering. Why do the cheap ones use a rubber top lip? How much pressure to apply, and then handheld ones. What surprised me was the weight of one a saw being used to do a roof section. I thought the weight would be a detrimental force to the area. Thanks guys.
Instead of hiring teachers who are woke and obsessed with identity politics its guys like this and stuff like this who should be teaching our kids. I'm new to your channel but I love it. This is what RUclips was invented for.
Thanks. Nice video info-wise. Just please don't pad it out with 'funny' noises and 'funny' comments - it just detracts from the info and makes it look less professional.
Im not sure this is helpful to newbies simply because we dont have those tools you use ,the average joe garage cant afford to go buy that stuff for a 1 time only use , i was expecting to see some real hands on hammering kind of stuff but this was kinda waste of time ,i am working on a fender trying to recapture some body lines so it served as nothing but a tool show for me but thanks anyway
Ryan is running a Metal Shaping class at Eastwood Co in Pottstown Pa - December 14-15th 2024! www.eastwood.com/metal-shaping-by-ryan-krause

I did this in school.....1970's.......

I’m a wood worker so metal working has always been a mystical thing. This is a great video.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Same for me. Also a woodworker and learned a lot from this video. Keep them coming! :)
I work with metal, when a wood project comes up I run for the hills, can't work with wood to save my life
@@ForgedShaft Ryan here, I also am very intimidated by woodwork. I just have Tony do all the wood projects in the shop. 😂🤙🏻
I don’t really work metal, but I had a couple bends in the edge of my rear fender on my motorcycle that I was able to flatten out with the first shrinking method from this video. Thank you!
Awesome video my dude! Never would’ve thought it would be shrinking when hammer forming but your description helped me see how that works.

I knew all this before, but you are so entertaining to watch so i stayed to the duration of the video.
Good job, keep doing what you are doing. 👍
Just stumbled across your channel and subscribed, awesome video! Always love seeing how different people's brains solve a problem
RUclips is my go-to for how-tos. This is perfect. And as a body tech this will help with me metal straightening before i go to town with glaze. Keep it up!
as a welder who welds cars for fun this information will go in use

outstanding looking forward to the rest of the series. 👍👍👍
Just love this. I was always confused what you meant about shrinking.
Great video guys, love the content please show more stuff about shaping and welding 😊😊😊😊

In depth ? Shallow minded is more like it .

Yes definitely make a video with the cheapest machines you got online!!! I have all cheap machines and they all work 👍👍👍👍
EXCELLENT video, thank you! Really appreciate your efforts to make these vids.
GREAT VIDEO! Thank you! More please.
This is such a great video and super helpful to me! Definitely gonna invest in a kick shrinker. Love all your work bro 😁
Great tutorial video! While shaping, how much stretching and shrinking will you use?
Please go ahead with the cheap machines, since those are the ones non-professionals may buy.
Really depends on what I’m making. I try to use a good balance between shrink/stretch to avoid the material getting too thin.
And sounds good! 🤝🏻
The piece you are making will tell you what it needs, if spots need more shrinking or stretching in spots, it's just about getting to the point where you can look/feel the metal and understand what is happening
Excellent video, well done, helpful and informative.
The whiteboard illustration is very good!
Awesome work as usual and very informative.
Great video. Very educational.
Good vid.... It helps me determine which metal shrinkers to buy for my car project

Very informative video, learned so much. Thank you!
Well done video. Good Luck, Rick
Great vid Ryan thanks
Great video, you have a new subscriber.
That automated press was made where I live, Green Bay wi
Hey dude great video. Any plans to continue the series?
Going back to the dishing stump... What would be the thickest material you would do? I need to dome /dish .0625"-.08" steel
I know sheet metal men that do what your doing, with our the tools you have, by hand and hammer ⚒️🔨 the old way.....
Cool.
I learned a new trick too.
Laid a cloth over the top of my computer and it blocks out the distraction and shows only the demonstration.
Im 12 too, can't stop laughing at deep throat 😂

Oh no! Anything but the woke! 😂 you people are a joke.
Getting much sleep new dad?🎉
Still adjusting! 😂🤝🏻
Are you Chris Evans stunt double
Deep throat hehehe 🤣
Hhhm hardenet steel in the shrinkers mouth dont like to bite themselfes, the need food to shrink
I just realized the shear’s name is ed “ed shearing”…
you are such a nerd 🤣🤣
Heheheheh
I bet you could name your kick shrinker Linda and no one would know why... outside the random 12 year olds.

Great video, very well explained and filmed! Thanks for sharing it
