  • On this episode of Make It Kustom, I build the ‘Mother Tucker’ . This heavy hitting nylon tipped hammer is perfect for shrinking sheet metal quickly.
    Materials:
    16” hickory handle
    2” aluminum round bar 6” long
    2” nylon round bar 2 pieces 3” long
    4- 3/8” coarse thread x 1/2” set screws

    No auto-feed. You are still part of the process. Many don’t have the patience or understand what that means. Great job.

    First, let me say, “thank you” for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us through your channel. You inspired me to try my hand at metal working.
    Secondly, That’s a great tool! I am adding that to my growing, “I want it” list of tools, especially since my current tooling is the HF basic hammer and dolly set and some wood working tools I am repurposing for working on my 1954 Chevy Advanced Designs 6400 grain truck build.
    I hope to create my own videos of the build I am calling Farmageddon since it will be my ‘Mad Max’ style heavy hauler for gravel, hay, trash etc… for our small Kansas farm.

    A little tip I learned a couple years ago. Is to toss a peice of leather over your sandbag. Because much easier to replace a peice of leather then the bag. And cheaper. Since no matter what the meatal will cut into it.

    Check out Pro Shaper, Wray has “stumps” lined with EDPM rubber to grip and hold the metal. As always, it’s enjoyable to watch a craftsman at work and learn a few things. 👍

    Great build Karl, I like it!...But now I have to buy a milling machine. I hear the problem with tree sections for shrinking stumps. I have three outside "weathering", I just hope they aren't too weathered. If you want a thicker shot bag, get some moose hide. If you don't use hearing protection, I'ma gonna have to shout so you c'n hear me. YES! Make some "Mother Tuckers"! I think that they would be an awesome addition to your tool line!

    A helpful tip, usually the handle hole on a hammer is slightly tapered. So when you drive in the wedges, the head cant slide off.

    • @faroironandcustoms6577
      @faroironandcustoms6577 Před 2 lety +6

      I was going to mention that, but also it is actually hourglass shaped. When a hammer is drifted, it is drifted with a taper from both sides of the eye.

    Hey Karl, cool video. What's cool about your shop is you have a lot of machinery to make the tool you need or even design a tool. Your going to be one hell of a teacher.
    If you were my metal teacher back when I was in highschool, I would have never skipped his class like I did. lol Take care and be safe.

    I think I'd like a mother tucker hammer depending on the cost and more importantly the shipping cost to the us. No lathe here but a U assemble or some assembly required kit would be right up my alley.

  • @markthomas9604
    @markthomas9604 Před 2 lety

    Just purchased material to make your hammer. Had to purchase more material than I needed. My buddies will all want one any how. I purchased the 6061 aluminum. Makes a better finish but does cost more. Great videos to watch on these cold Ohio days. Keep it up and thanks.

  • @franksgarage8551

    First, i enjoy watching machining, i find it fascinating. Thats one reason i bought a lathe. Second i am amazed how quick you moved the metal. Third, always look forward to learning a little more.
    I always wanted to get into the fine art of metalwork like yourself, but something always held me back. So i just dabble, as i get closer to retirement i will pick up a little more. Thanks again!

    I have a hammer like that. It has a thread cut in the ends to hold them in. Say a 2” acme thread or so. They come loose a bit but I just keep checking as I use it.

    Made pop in ends for similar hammers. A protruding ring machined around the insert like an o-ring and a matching groove in the steel body worked great after the bad ideas were sorted. Needed a relief in the plastic to allow the ring to compress before end swaps were possible but they did go in...once. Aluminium handle wasn't a great idea but the owner/designer/critic eventually seemed to enjoy ating on is bloody hammer.
    Yours is a nice one.
