Great information! As a hobbyist this channel is my new go to...my old body shop class instructor who was a real old school body man would love this! Thank you again!
Found this channel, & subbed REAL QUICK! I just saw an old old timer in town selling a monkey on a stick, we got to talking and he sold me on it! I started autobody in 2010/11',, never seen that tool! Your video catalog is amazing! Gonna go on a binge try and watch 43 videos this weekend 😂. Thankx in advance
I found the title “PoGo-Stick” and had to see for myself what it was! As a tech, I fixed the cars at the dealer while the guys into the bodyshop straighten and replace or repaired. So I am watching to learn. Retired now, after being an ASE Master Tech since 1978, I have seen tools and bought tools that SnapOn dealer had not seen. It I not uncommon to see something so simple used incorrectly for years but once learned, gets the job done. I am finally doing a 1967 C10 for myself for a change at 6’3” I fit comfortably with modified Tahoe bucket seats and a center console to mount electronics for easy diagnostics or repair. Remember, I fixed vehicles, so everything gets a photo and each system gets a schematic with colors, connectors, routing and a diagnostic flow chart for future repair on a “Resto-Mod” in a 56 year old vehicle and 2003 EFI truck engine. Enjoyed the video and reminds me of the tools in my garage my sons would never figure out what they are for! Thanks for sharing! DK, Omaha.
@Auto Body Training Solutions >Regardless of how old one maybe, like me, learning never and should not stop. Thanks for the kind words. Encouragement helps get the job done!
While in the trade we made "pogo sticks" out of a length heavy wall tubing with a "J" hook weld on and a piece of flat iron welded on the end Cheap and easily availible material They were great for aligning coresupports Pleased to see that friction jacks and "Morgan" slide hammers are still around I've heard from owners that the trade has become a parts swap or "total" deal with little or no "real" repair work
Yes the industry is going to replace instead of repair. The old tools are still being used but the techs that use them are slowly disappearing. Thanks for watching
Good luck in finding techs that know how to shim for caster. Good luck in finding techs that are willing or even know to replace brushes. The trade is getting lazier but greedier.
I made one out of all jack Pole Drilled holes all the way down every 2 inches apart You smell hooks from a scissor horse stand And some chain laying around Welder plate at the bottom And then caked the bottom with the seam sealer ,free 99 and 30 minutes of time
Still wrong. You actually get more power from the closer hook. Another difference is the pulling angle. The closer hook pulls down while the far hook pulls straight out.
You are correct about the pulling angle. You loose outward force because it’s pulling down. By keeping your angles low with the top hook you don’t get much travel. Just like a transmission low gear has more power but low speed. Just use whatever works best for you. Thanks for watching
It's great to see videos about old but not out-dated tools and techniques. Thanks a lot for posting these! 🙌👍

Can you share videos of actual body work you did or are doing?
When possible I do. Check out my playlist on the 57 Chevy and the 1970 Chevelle which is still ongoing. Thanks for watching
