- My homemade corrugated iron rolling machine finally works! Yay! What a project this has been.. Now I should be able to make the roofs for small animal shelters...
I couldn't have made all the metal parts without my cnc plasma cutter - here's a link : xtremeplasma.ecwid.com/ (Tell Rob we sent you.)
Ok, here are some important website links. Please check them out..
Here's Tim's amazing guitar machine..

Don’t steal our stuff!
That would make a heck of a big mail box. :)
LOL
Do you know something friend I'm following your videos not really knowing what you're at a lot of the time but the fact that you are actually making"stuff" is cool. Please keep doing what you're doing.
Ha! Thanks, Tom
Enclosed trailers are very expensive. You could make those really waterproof.
Good idea! Thanks
Yeah! There are lots of people looking to basically make the same sort of thing for a 'tiny house'/camper trailer.
By the way, this is so cool and you've really impressed this particular mechanical engineer! Keep up the good work!
It looks very similar to the ribs on an oil drum. I wonder if that is how they roll those as well.
Congratulations on your success!! I admire your mechanical aptitude and indomitable attitude.
I brought that up last time. When they do oil drums they roll the cylinder first and then weld the seam. Then they put it on a set of rollers and put the ribs in it. I told Tim it might be easier to do it that way, to get the shape first and then put the ribs in it.. but he did it his way as most of us probably would.
I think if you're making the same size all the time, it might be worth doing things that way round - but I hope to make a variety of sizes, so this way makes most sense , I think..
Thank you TWH!
Can you make them bigger.
Like really big. For a shed. One piece barrel (28 ft across) roof Is what us roofers would call it. Then sides of 10 ft
Yes I live on a farm. And yes the mind never stops.
J.A.Ratt85 if you were to try, & put the ribs in afterwards, you would only be able to put them into the curved section, which would leave the flat section straight, would it not?
I've loved watching the trial and error of this project series! So great that you persevered and managed to do it!
Thanks, Dave!
"It even makes orange ones!" 😂
Congrats Tim, you did it!
fioré 😂😂😂, I had a good laugh at that one too lol.
Your barn is starting to look like a real sheet metal factory! The curving process actually makes the corrugation look nicer. That's a great success. How about taking a long sheet and putting a tiny radius in the middle so it's the right size for a bicycle garage? Oh! Better yet, these would make great bicycle camper trailer roofs. A bicycle camper has been on my list of projects to get around to for a long time. This would make great roofs for covered trailers of all kinds. Now I want a sheet metal factory in my barn too.
Good ideas. Thanks Ben. (Yes, I wonder what it takes to be a real factory. A bell? A sign that mentions Bros? A canteen? Perhaps I should make a tiny canteen and a sign and open for business properly!)
@@WayOutWestx2 I envy your space... I used to take it for granted with my grand father's shed. Now living in smaller places where there is no room to do such things. Heck I have to go outside to change my mind! Keep up the good work. Explore those ideas, they are golden.
Two bits of curved roof fastened end to end, and turned up, would make a lovely raised bed for planting
Was going to suggest this myself, The corrugated iron raised beds that can be bought ready made cost an absolute fortune!
That's how I ended up here😂😂😂
Raised garden beds, is what i'd like to make. Well done.
05:24 The railway system you made is just toooo good....
Especially for such heavy items.
It really is helpful sometimes
Great result! As to applications, perhaps small garden storage, say for a compressor with ends closed up, rhubarb forcer again with closed ends, hedgehog shelter, if bigger lawn mower cover, firewood kindling cover better if rolled out of transparent aluminium!, but if you can make them bigger many more possibilities emerge for animal homes: dog kennel, pig house... & storage. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent ideas - thank you !
Also, If you could get Camo themed coating on them, a great little kennel or small water /irrigation shed in bigger gardens or on farm lots where they wouldn't be noticed by crooks.
Here in Australia they make water tanks that shape that are for narrow housing blocks to collect rain water. I thought about compost bins too. instead of un- environmentally correct plastic made in Chicom land ,and Irish one,which over the decades would itself retinue to nature.If you made them stackable you, they could be made to stack really high for the small alotment holder to make a few tons of compost.
I'm glad you persevered and sussed it out in the end. Congratulations!
Thank you for not giving up and share your adventure
I am very glad that you have come up with a design that works for you!
Brilliant machine! Brilliant video! Laughed out loud at "It even makes orange ones!" Thanks for sharing!!!
It's so awsome to see someone so focused and stubbornly stick to an ideal and rather than to give in to frustration and give up, keep at it till the plan finally becomes a reality! Bravo!
Curved corrugated iron makes for good raised garden beds. Durable, cheap, lightweight, and they look good.
You are a freaking genius. What a great example of engineering yourself a solution to a problem you made up yourself. This should be inspirational to everyone who encounters a similar problem.
I have so enjoyed this entire odyssey, in particular your upbeat and positive attitude despite your many setbacks. Thank you for allowing us to share in the satisfaction of your success.
I like the progressive rib dies! It makes it easier for the sheet to contract when tolling the ribs
The finished product is beautiful. I'm very happy for you!
Well done Tim, you did it.
Bravo Tim ! Amazing as always. Blessings to all.
Yay! Congratulations!
I admire your persistence! Cant wait to see the first finished house 😊
Well done Tim!! Pumphouses. Rabbit sheds. Chicken tractors. Rhubarb/asparagus forcing covers, cowls for chimneys, Andersson shelters for suckling pigs...
Thanks Rupert - at last the huge demand for bomb shelters for pigs can be met. Oh happy day : - )
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. Congrats Tim! So great to see your hard work pay off!
Dog / cat house. Small garden tool shed. Motorcycle shed. Anything much larger than that you would need to get your sheet metal on a roll
I was so happy to see you did it. 😊
Congratulations!!!
this is absolutely incredible to see finally happen
I identify with this logic applied in this video! "I want a thing, but the the thing doesn't exist or it does but is oddly expense. So I build a thing to build the thing I want and spend a vast amount of time getting it right."
It's a terrible curse, isn't it? Much better to say - that'll do just as it is!
Very happy to see your sucess on the project. I strugglet with this kind of problem years ago and never made it work. You guys are just amazimg.
Yay Tim! Congratulations!
Little dog houses or farm cat mini barns? Or a nest home for broody hens. What a genius series of inventions.
Good idea - thanks, Fiona!
So glad you've got it figured 😊
Ideal for animal shelters! For wildlife rescue centres and farms. Love this, great work!
Thank you for sharing us
yayyy!! I'm soo glad to see u stuck to it and figured it all out, well done!!!
Congrats sir
Well done Tim!!! So glad you beat it in the end. Nothing feels better than success! I knew you would do it!! So very pleased for you! Take care and all the best to you and Sandra!
Thank you, Sharon : - )
Nicely done!
I enjoyed the journey and the outcome very much.
I ran a roller for 30yrs, and that is very good work, make 6' ones and use them as smokers
Really impressive work
In awe!
Congrats!
Homeless shelters, pet/ livestock shelters, seed starter....you’re very talented!
Fantastic.
Brilliant, well done!
Quite brilliant , inspirational.
You figured it out! 👏👏👏
Yay. Great work.
Your tenacity gave rise to accomplishment
That's wonderful! I couldn't be happier for you. Congratulations!!!
Amazing job sir
Dude you rule! You didn't give up. You kept looking for solutions. Awesome
Congratulations on your success! Hard work pays off the best!
bloomin marvellous! Well done Tim :)
What a fun project! You are very talented! And great storytelling, and pacing as well!
Hooray! Success!
Our very own 'Gyro Gearloose' of Europe you are :) Love to see your tinkering, Tim. Thank You.
Ha! Thanks, Bjorn.
Well done 👍🏻 getting better every time. Looking forward to the next installment to see where it takes you!
Well done 😊
Awesome! Thanks for sharing 😊
Fun in doing things your way
Really great stuff Tim, a lesson in perseverance.
Awesome job!
Brilliant Tim you certainly got some patients and sticking power cheers
finally you did it . I was with u all the time . very happy . today
Thank you, I & P. Good ideas.
wow ! the finished roof looks great Tim .
Thanks, Richard - yes, I think it looks ok too
what an inspiration.
never give up i’m glad you finally got it !!!!
Huzzah! Glad you got it worked out!
You’ve certainly tort us all a thing or two about not giving up. You and your fine lady. Well done 👍🇦🇺
Make an elongated oval using two curved pieces as 'ends' of a raised bed, (e.g. hugelkultur method of growing food), with longer straight pieces as the longer sides of the raised bed. Sell as a bolt together kit.
I just discovered your channel due to me trying to get ideas on rolling sheet metal. My friend I must say you are a true master of ingenuity. I love watching your different projects please keep it up. Thanks for filming all of this. Take care
Thank you very much! Welcome aboard. Don't forget the new channel - way out west workshop stuff
Fantastic work!
Brilliant as always.👍
you did it man well done
Instant equipment covers for snowy areas...just pop it over mower/tiller/generator or other outdoor equipment that isn’t under other cover.
Hay bale cover, so you can feed flakes to animal, and keep the rest of the bale dry nearby for feeding AM and PM.
Electric fence or irrigation controller cover, so water doesn’t get on battery or electric hookup out in the field.
Wheelbarrow or garden cart cover, so what is in the could stay dry!
Instant toolbox cover for flatbed or pickup bed...with a door you could lock, removable at any time with a few bolts only accessible from inside.
Shall I go on?
Great work, Tim! What I like best is how you handle failure. You’re an inspiration to us all.
Thanks, Pat. Lots of good suggestions there. I especially like the hay bale shelter..
Your engineering level is best
way to go Tim!!
Completely badass
Fantastic result, great work team. The big companies should have been able to do that!
Love it! It’s old blokes with to much time ! Looks great😊
No farm project is complete without a concrete block and some twine :D - brilliant stuff!
Well exactly!
Way Out West Blow-in blog, I loved that the concrete block is a stand-in for a higher tech spring! 😂
Amazing work, inspiring perseverance!
Great job👍
You're getting there. It's looking very promising. Well done.
outstanding
Congrats on making a machine that finally WORKS for you! :D This final one is really clever!
Well done, Tim! I got really excited upon reading the title! 💜
Thanks, Magabyte!
Excellent 👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing
good one
Bravo 👏, great idea . The possibility are limitless, bird houses,dog house, covers for lawn equipment,vehicle covers , water tanks ,barrels for storage, out houses. Now you need a edge roller to make the ends to tie into the rooftop an walls . Great idea though using pallets for a base to make small storage sheds .
Thanks, Ardy - good ideas all
Dude..... unbelievable.....
Genius! Impressive!
Congrats ..great machine....it was a case of no surrender !!!
Well done tim, persistance paid off
Thank you for you're videos I really appreciate and enjoyed them
Thanks for watching!
Well done 🙏😁
