I knew you had to have a planishing hammer and metal brake of some sort as well. Nice shop. Rick C.

My homebuilt planishing hammer. The HF ones were so lame I didn't even bother and just built it from scratch. Those descaling guns have quite a bit of power.

I also built a deep throat shrinker as I am going to try building my own gas tank.

I am intrigued about the concept of a "deep throat shrinker", but am scared to ask.

Grizzly. They used to sell a hammer that used the same one, and they make an upper die that fits on it. I also bought the lower dies from them. I haven't used it much, as I like the English Wheel better.

Yeah, this is definitely a cool build! I really get a kick out of seeing people building out Flyers from the component kits. It gets more bikes out there and I get to see the results.

Being a former electrician, I must say that I get a Kick out of the repurposing of the sheathing from some metal clad wire.
