Just opened my own custom fabrication shop 6 months ago i am already booked out to summer with really interesting and lucrative work. Most importantly, i am honestly happier than ive been in the last decade. I am Doing what i love and making money; largely thanks to people like you and stuff I have learned from you, it’s saved my ass on multiple projects. Thanks man, keep it going.
To save on shipping you might want to sell a diy kit. All the small parts just minus the tube. So you can just get your tubes bent up at a local place and weld it all together
@@MakeItKustom I'm in the UK and planning on building a planishing hammer, yours looks great but it doesn't make sense to import the whole thing, even if I had the dough.. I'd certainly be interested in buying dies though :) Love the channel btw, new subscriber!
Yes great idea! I'm in France and I wants one but shipping will be prohibitive so a build kit with the dies and such would make sense for overseas. What kind of steel does the tubing need to be? Chrome molly or does regular softer steel work?
I like to just buy the hardware kit as far as the the dollies Dolly's and all the other accessories it's related to it Maybe do these upper dollies have the 401 Shank
I have been watching your channel for a couple of weeks now, and really love your skill and enthusiasm. Although I'm not a rat rod guy, the innovation on your pickup is truly inspiring, a true work of art. Keep up the videos coming please.
Thanks so much Russel I really appreciate the feedback. you have a similar outlook to mine. We don’t all need to like the same stuff but we can all support each other in the industry and the community regardless of our taste! Thanks for watching will keep making videos forever!
How fast do you want to go, how much do you want to spend? For those saying they can get something like this at a $500 or so price point, I'm calling BS. Go on line and you can see that a good set of hardened dies alone go for a grand or so. Add in the rest of the materials, labor, packaging, etc., and this is actually a pretty good price point for what you are getting. A lot depends on what you are going to use it for. If it is only a one shot deal on one car, maybe it is a bit much to spend. If you plan on doing a lot of this type of work, it's not. And frankly, when you figure that to do a good Street Rod (Not Rat Rod) you are going to spend roughly what it costs for a new car, adding two grand into the budget so you have a quality tool to work with isn't that much. You can always sell it when you are done.
Thanks Eric sounds like you know the market and the products well. You’re right sometimes you can just use a tool for one project and if you’re not gonna use it again pass it on! Good tools don’t lose value like cars and trucks off the lot. Cheers!
Love this. Just started doing hammer and dolly to my 51 ford. Using your videos and the book "The Key to Metal Bumping" gave me the confidence and knowledge to do it myself. Was blown away how the metal just started falling back into shape. I need some other metal working tools till I need a planishing hammer but still love supporting you in any way I can.
That hammer is awesome man, wish I had that when I was doing more auto body work. I hope all works out, it seems like you worked really hard to get this project to where you we're comfortable with selling it. So Congratulations and looking forward to all of your future videos, especially the Cadillac can't wait to see it completed.
@@MakeItKustom excellent tool.. but.. can I offer two redesigns.. the arms would be much stiffer for their weight.. or much lighter for their strength/stiffness AND be easier to fabricate with box section tube.. as well, box section would give a better proflie to grip.. 2: it would be a level more convenient to manover AND lighter again.. by connecting the air line via the arm tube.. socket the hammer head airline to the tube at the head & the compressor airline to the arm at the hinge pin.. would help the weight balance much more.. cheers from NZ.. love your work.. love your philosophy of making the tools work for you.. my strategy too 👌
Looking forward to seeing your planishing hammers brand grow. Can really see this taking off and becoming a staple in the classic car restoration industry. Definitely a whole lot of potential. Thanks for posting all the great videos.
Thanks so much! I enjoy reading the comments. It’s nice to know that there’s such a great community of like-minded people that appreciate this type of content! It pushes us to keep doing our best! Cheers
I have a P hammer that suits my needs but young guys smashing metal and designing tools makes me happy. Hope you have success. Quality tools are never a bad investment.
I really like your work and your vids. No loud brain melting music, well presented and articulate descriptions of what you are doing or working on. Wish you all the best with your endeavours and keep the quality coming. Good luck with you hammer sales, I am sure it will be a sucess.. Thanks again and keep it up.
*Awesome!* Dude you are killing it! Glad I came across your channel! Not that I can do the stuff you're doing, but this 51 year old is never too old to learn a new trick or two.
I do not do hardly any metal work at all but have been fascinated with your channel for the last month or so. Love watching how easy you make everything look. I wish you the best with your hammer sales, hope they sell out in 1 day.
I just inquired about this hammer from another video. This is a stunningly beautiful work of art. If i had space, money this would be in my collection. Money cannot buy the honor that you have earned here today. Brilliant 👏 👏 👏
Thank you so much Chris! I’ve been meaning to get at you for some feedback. Had an incredible time meeting you and appreciate your soul tour and the hospitality!
Awesome ingenuity man! Love the adjuster, maybe add a very simple quick release to open those jaws up a foot or 2 to quickly pull out out of the piece your working on. I dunno, it's just the first thing I thought of when you stopped and opened it back up. Nice work! Good luck to you!
You might want to consider a quick release at the hinge that will allow it to open wide to get in or out and then lock to use the adjustment screw to dial it in.
Looks great. You can also use hex stock material for the adjustment handle to save the knurl operation in the lathe. Hex gives the hand a grr ear grip for something that size.
Might I suggest you make a quick release wall and stand mount. Maybe even one that swings to and from the wall that can be locked in so it won't move when in use or stored. Just a thought.
I was a bodyman in the 60's and 70's, portable planishing hammers were common, but they disappeared, nice to see craftsmanship is coming back. Great Tool, it's very hard to hammer and dolly a hood like yours, but a portable planishing hammer makes quick work of smoothing out the wavyness. Great Video THANKS
You’re very welcome man! Those hammers almost never come up for sale from back in the day but there are some excellent copies of the Chicago and Milwaukee hammers Used back then. Because of the scarcity I created my own thank you so much for your input!
I've been subscribed and watching your channel since you started the channel. You're such a talented engineer and designer I know you're going to sell a million of these.
What a great tool, excellent job and good luck with distribution. Perhaps a quick release pin might make a less time consuming option for the adjuster, at least for entry and exit of panel/part. Kinda like a clevis pin secured with hairpin.
I just wanted to let you know I'm really enjoying your channel. I have only just started doing metal work and body work as I do a restoration of a 1956 f100 that I had shipped from Saskatchewan to Ontario.
Consider a shallow lower hoop. I suggest sleeved hoops that can lengthen and shorten by the insertion of a bolt-in sleeve. Your customers might do that anyway. Or, perhaps telescoping hoops that can expand from 24" hoops to 36". That feature would make your product more versatile and a more attractive investment.
Karl that is such a great tool that you have designed, I think it should sell pretty good. I know this person that has a body shop and I am to tell him about this planishing hammer. I will ask to watch your video on it.
Hey Karl love your work mate, whilst I have no use for this tool I can certainly appreciate the work that has gone into it and such a great idea, keep up the awesome videos mate 🇦🇺
Hello! I just saw the video and this looks like a great tool! I hope it sells well. May I make a couple of suggestions to consider(unless you have already considered them and rejected 🙂)? Since it looks like the air hose is in the way, would it be possible to use the upper pipe as a part of air supply: use a short piece of hose to connect the air head to the upper pipe and then to have the air input next to the hinge. Secondly, it looks like it would be nice to have a handle, like on an angle grinder, on the upper pipe with a quick release. This would allow a better control when working. Otherwise, I love your channel! Good luck!
Yea you can use hot air guns or induction. And really focus the heat. And then if you wanted use a tank if co2 to force the shrink. I just am never building a hotrod again.
Wow thats beautiful looking piece of machine i made my own a few years back from scrap steel in my shop really hope it goes well for you guys a big shout out from SA
just started watching this channel a little while ago and found this video today. i really enjoyed this one because ive been wondering wtf those pipes on the wall were for the last month.
Hi Carl, have you ever filled a stationary hammer with sand for dampening purposes? I’m assuming your hammer is solid enough that vibration is not a problem, and the extra weight would not be good for portability. This is the first hammer I’ve seen that is dual purpose, meaning mounted or hand held, the cheaper Princess Auto ones are too awkward to handle, and need to be sand filled or they shake apart. Great product, are you still teaching classes? Love your content!!
Thanks so much man! There’s definitely deflection in these tubes but because of the lower air pressure when using one of these hammers it doesn’t seem to affect it. Feeling the tubes in a stationary hammer is definitely a great idea but maybe not a portable one for the weight as well
It should be a convertible, where you can remove two equal sections of threaded(?) pipe (top and bottom) to make it a 12 or 18 inch, or add two equal sections of threaded(?) pipes to make it a 32, or 36... You show a 24 inch version at 3:41, imagine if we could add two straight 6 inch (top and bottom) pieces of pipe to make it a 30 inch, or add two 12 inch pieces of pipe to make it a 36... I even think (at 3:41) that you should incorporate that piece of pipe hanging from the wall in the background 2nd down on the left, aaaaand 3rd down on the right to get into those hard to reach areas, while add stability and versatility...
Yes all the ones on the back wall are going to be able to pin on so that you have different lower jaws in the future. My problem with threading added pieces is the vibration and how the thread score become loose and damaged. I appreciate all your feedback and suggestions thank you so much Joe
Hi Karl Love the channel. Would you consider a kit to save on shipping to Australia. Maybe included everthing but the tubing, very interested would pre-order if this option was available. Keep up the awesome work. Take care mate
That’s a great idea and a few people have suggested and asked for the same thing so certainly in the future I will look into making this a builders kit
Karl, My oldest son owns an online store that sells “Jerky”. I brought up sales from here to Australia. He brought up something I had not thought of, but if you had 20+ customers who wanted to order, if they where willing for slight delay, but he said “Bulk Sales Distribution” orders could cut the shipping cost by 1/2 to 2/3rds. What this means is basically bundling product into one large box design to fit the seaTainers to join other cargo and products inside a large container headed for that country. So, delivery of your products, bundled into one shipping box, inside of the freight container with other people/companies goods just hitching a ride by size & weight along with whatever products from companies X, Y and Z all bound for the same country. Generally, he said depending on each product inside the box, you might have to pay a fee for a port bundler to open you container box of goods, then place each one of them in the hands of the postal/delivery system used in that county. The sell “Kangaroo Smoke Jerky” and make large orders to be shipped to the USA. He never see’s the product as a port bundled handles opening his container, giving the prelabled boxes to the postal service and shipped to customers and local warehouses here in the States. I hope this makes sense as it would reduce shipping cost to our buddies “Down Under” so they could “Planish” their hearts all over Australia. Unless you Develop a contract with another company or distributor warehouse connection for this service. He said there many choices to reduce cost. It is like Alaska. 98% of everything comes in one boats or air. Air being the most as weight is the issue. Something they are use to. Just thinking out loud! ASE Master Tech since 1978/Retired.

Bro first i have to thank you for your videos and the good good job and the help that your videos give . Please tell me how i can buy one of those planishings hammers thanks.
I'm assuming the kit includes one lower jaw; can we choose the lower jaw for our initial purchase. I definitely need the lower profile lower initially.
Hey there I'm Gord and I would love one of your sets as soon as possible. I am in Prince George, and have a few jobs coming up where I need a planishing hammer. I would prefer to support local..and your product looks awesome..

Yeah the quick release is definitely something that could be of use in the future thanks for your input!
Karl thats badass man! I'm happy for you and think you have a bright future in the industry.
Thanks for the support, appreciate it!
Nail on the head. Quality dies are a fundamental starting point of any engineering task in hand.
I believe they are the most important part of any planishing hammer
Class hammer,I wish you all the best with sales.
Thanks so much Gerry!
A clever design that looks user friendly. Nice work man!!!!
This product will sell itself , and you are very good at talking about it. Keep up the great work and God Bless. And I wish you the best.
Thanks so much for your support! Cheers!
You might want to consider a quick release at the hinge that will allow it to open wide to get in or out and then lock to use the adjustment screw to dial it in.
Find "0" Rings to fit groves in the adjuster, it will feel better and add soft gripping.
Yeah definitely the O-rings would be nice but I think we are going to go with the knurled adjuster
Looks great. You can also use hex stock material for the adjustment handle to save the knurl operation in the lathe. Hex gives the hand a grr ear grip for something that size.
That’s a great idea too! Thank you!
Might I suggest you make a quick release wall and stand mount. Maybe even one that swings to and from the wall that can be locked in so it won't move when in use or stored. Just a thought.

I'm just learning metal work and this is way above my skill level but you are one skilled dude. Glad to see good people succeeding.

Thanks man I appreciate your vote of confidence! I’m excited to get these out in the world

just started watching this channel a little while ago and found this video today.
i really enjoyed this one because ive been wondering wtf those pipes on the wall were for the last month.
A rear quarter planishing hammer would have to have a shallow frame to hold the anvil. Have you made provisions for that?
Add a side handle to the 36" top jaw, I would definitely love that!
Yea accessories would be nice like taht
I like your planishing hammer. I have a planishing hammer. I might have to have two planishing hammers.

When you say "pin" are you talking about like the spring pins that you can find in an adjustable senior walker...

Generally, he said depending on each product inside the box, you might have to pay a fee for a port bundler to open you container box of goods, then place each one of them in the hands of the postal/delivery system used in that county. The sell “Kangaroo Smoke Jerky” and make large orders to be shipped to the USA. He never see’s the product as a port bundled handles opening his container, giving the prelabled boxes to the postal service and shipped to customers and local warehouses here in the States. I hope this makes sense as it would reduce shipping cost to our buddies “Down Under” so they could “Planish” their hearts all over Australia. Unless you Develop a contract with another company or distributor warehouse connection for this service. He said there many choices to reduce cost.
It is like Alaska. 98% of everything comes in one boats or air. Air being the most as weight is the issue. Something they are use to. Just thinking out loud!

I'm assuming the kit includes one lower jaw; can we choose the lower jaw for our initial purchase. I definitely need the lower profile lower initially.

Have you thought of making some kind of dolly system that clams on with some kind of up and down pedal system.
This has been used for stationary planishing hammer’s in the past but I have not seen it for handhelds. Definitely something to consider
What size tubing and thickness did you use what's the weight on it ?
1-3/8” .120” wall DOM tubing. The 36” is approx 18lbs
Bro great design
Thanks man it works well!
Brilliant design
Thanks so much!
