Re: A '54 named Busty

Yeah. Nice stuff he builds. Let's see him do that with 18ga steel, a claw hammer and a piece of firewood. Haha
I built a power unit for my bead roller from an old starter, a flex plate, an electric drill, some scrap metal and some bike brake cable I had laying around the shop. I bought a center shaft adapter for a pulley/sprockey to mount the flex plate, one of those weld on style you get from farm equipment places.
You're gonna have fun with it. Try some thin metal first to get the hang of it, spacing the dies differently and how that affects the shape etc
