  • On this episode of Make It Kustom, we build a press form step-by-step to emboss or stamp a Chevy emblem into sheet metal without warping. Sheet metal stamping is a great way to make a complex bead or shape for a patch panel too!

I love your work and that you use handtools cause you realise that's what most of us have at home. I've done a lot of custom work on my 4wd, and even though I regret starting it cause it's still going 10yrs later it's been able to say it's mine and I did it is the cool part.

    My Grandfather was a master craftsmen tool and die maker.
    He told me that a file only cuts in one direction. Don’t drag the file across the metal when pulling back. It just dulls the file faster.
    Hard to remember to do that sometimes but I notice it actually works better as well.

    • @daos3300
      @daos3300 Před 2 lety +2

      yes! the exception is ally, then you drag the file to clear the chips out

    • @stephenzwemer2905
      @stephenzwemer2905 Před 2 lety +2

      @@daos3300 Good point
      I left out the part where my grandfather would tap the file gently on the edge of a non critical part to clear the chips. He was very particular and his work reflected that.
      I’m sure that gently pulling the file backwards would also do the job without damaging anything.
      I’m sure all the above is relative to the material being worked and the force applied. Gentle is a subjective term.

    When you started this video I wondered whether you would offer the result to the person that asked the question! Very cool that you offered to send him the panel for free!

    Good job on your fabrication work. Especially making and embossing the most sacred emblem: the Chevy bowtie.

    100% good enough 🤣But on a serious note it is good to see some who will not only use basic tools but show how to do it and yes thinking out side the box . So many times we put off doing something because we do not have the special tools required for it I myself have been guilty of this as are many of us . You have a gift for teaching with your down to earth explanations be it online but I am sure if you offered classes to teach metal forming you would get people who would want your classes. As I mentioned in another post I did a back to back classes with Lazze he is a very good teacher and even though it would piss me off as how he made it look so easy 😁but I have much respect for him and I am sure you would be a very good teacher in a class situation you have a wealth of knowledge to impart on those willing to learn
