  • A comparison between tuck shrinking and "grab and shove" style shrinking. In this video I use my Eckold machine to demonstrate the shrinking process.

    Bill - that's the best explanation I've ever heard on the difference between tuck shrinking and 'grab and shove' shrinking! I am really enjoying your video series, and look forward to what's coming next!

    Fascinating presentation. You're really good at explaining this. Thanks!

    Thanks for posting. Really great explanations of the fundamental of shrinking without all the hype of so many CZcams videos. Love the SpinalTap reference. Video style is perfect. Keep it coming

    I agree with your hypothesis of grains that were elongated to a large degree in the Ekhold (sp?) were changed to a rounder shape in the planishing hammer. A very interesting point and demonstration.

    Great comparison between the different machines. It is great to know the different way to do things. So you can adapt your process for different parts. I worked with Bill M years ago. A great guy that is a wealth of information and always willing to help.

      Willie taught me so much over the years and is a close friend. Thanks for watching and enjoying the videos

    Outstanding presentation of critical techniques, and differences, that every shaper should know. I've visited Hartmut Eckold's factory in Switzerland and admire their product line, but I also know that too many novice shapers fall in love with equipment rather than invest their time developing skills. Most European coachbuilders have FAR less equipment than American shops, and even hobbyists, but they are very proficient in using their skills to solve problems. Your presentation champions putting the role of expensive equipment in the proper perspective. I HOPE all shapers take your lesson to heart. Thanks again for a great video.

    I Made A Stand For My Eastwood Shrinker And Stretcher Into A Kick Shrinker/Stretcher!!! Works Great On Steel!!!
    Keep Rocking!!!

      You can do a lot with the Eastwood shrinker. Good luck with your projects. Bill

    Great video very educational, the no mar dies are made from G12 fiberglass, if you want to make some. We have several Eckold machines (in a large aircraft hangar in the southeastern US) and had made dies on our router in the past, It's tough stuff. Our machinist told us, never again.

    As a metallurgical engineer and a still learning metal shaper your explanations are outstanding and very easy to follow. I might suggest that your hypothesis on stress relieving is close enough. I would think that the planishing is adding some expanding cold work that is relieving some of the residual compressive stresses that the shrinking imparted…regardless, it’s the fact that you know how it works. Thank you! By the way, you’re too hard on yourself regarding the video quality…it’s fine for what we need!

      Thank you very much for the information, glad to see I'm not far off on the issue. B

    What is the best tig filler rod for 5052 so I dont get stress cracks when planishing
