Bertha,picking up where Shewheeler left off.

Ditto on the "crisp" comment. How is the rigidity with the dimples in the 16 gauge? Have you considered a bead roller for the thin stuff?
 
Its super stiff after it's dimpled. Surprisingly so.

Avery and I have actually been talking for a while about going halves on a bead roller :pimp:
 
Been looking myself, just cuz it's so good on thinner sheet at adding a lot of rigidity...when you don't want holes. I figured the dimples would add a lot of rigidity. Good to know for sure though. :waytogo:

These dimples are super crisp and clean. I had never used the air/hydrolic pump I used on this before.

I don't know how many ton the two pumps I have are, but this one has a bunch more mojo than the one I use on my press to dimple.

I think the 40 ton ram on the iron worker will do the trick... :whistle:


They look great. Epic with the muffin wrappers :haha:

If I didn't have a way to punch the holes and a non manual way to dimple, I wouldn't get all crazy with the holes. :D

My dad has a 100 ton press we built. It is the most awsome yet scarriest tools ever.

You can stack a quarter, nickel, penny, a dime, and smash/fuse them together to about .025 thick :D

It has a long remote and a huge gauge so you can hide and safely peek around the corner :cool:


Had to take break from the weekend progress to help fix a flat. She did most of it her self.

 
Painted the fuel cell thingy, cleaned and painted the frame where I wouldn't be able to later, and ChevysmithZ71 came by Saturday morning to give me a hand pulling the bed sides.

And he came by again today on his way home to help me put the thingy and cell back in :cool:





Next is to pull the rear section to finish welding and paint.

Then on to the rear suspension :D
 
Need to have monkey bring the eazy bake out and fill those up. More help might swing by......
 
I think i missed it, but what exactly is the dimpled cup cake pan actually for?
