Hello HPC. Nice work with springs. Lethal power in those. Ok, for 30 years I have used 30cm tall X 20cm dia hard-wood stumps, bark removed, the same 2. Finally my son asked me to wrap 2 stainless hose clamps around each, close to the ends. Applied them as tight as the small 6mm bolt head would allow. We put one end of small cars on them, nice to sit on, endless uses. Now we are wondering just how strong those are? You did a similar test before, using fresh soft wood and no hose clamps. Is it possible to press stumps like these? Love the new bunker. Something has to crack the cement someday. Kipis

@@HydraulicPressChannelI think you should crush a heavy duty spring _sideways!_ Because that's the direction is NOT meant to bend... Also, maybe try to source a dump truck spring, and a train car spring, for a "Springs vs Press Pt.2"? _(although, the latter might be _*_TOO_*_ stiff)_

Man it's crazy that it took so much while trying to be unsafe! Honestly after watching the first half of the video might give someone the wrong impression, but I think airbuddy in these comments have witnessed a potential accident themselves or from others. I've had three springs leave the tool myself, one from those shitty bolt clamps and two from different dealership spring tools.. all three of them surpassed my super Saiyan Matrix speed reaction, leaving the area completely before I could even blink and being super lucky after two previous that the last one of them resulted in a minor knee cap injury where I was bracing the special tool. Still absolutely terrifying after 3/4 thousand McPherson struts... But awesome quick money. Name of the game😅🎉

Bolts wedged between the coils on just one side will cause a spring to bow when compressed (remember those aluminum spring stiffening inserts from back in the day). A bar sticking out that only grabs one side of the coil might help, as it will flex open a bit.

@Whatsinanameanyway13 2 ай бұрын

@@dstillmanYes, I would consider having a small hole through the bunker that you could pass a rope through to pull on a stuck test object in cases like this. If that spring was stuck with stored energy, pulling it off the table and letting it hit the floor *should* be enough of a shock to release it, or at least safer than just walking in there.

@@petuniasevan Yeah, so not a loaded spring, sure. But you wrote "certain items", and added "not that uncompressed thing".

@seanman6541 2 ай бұрын

For a more scientific idea, since you can graph the force over distance of the press, you could try compressing the spring all the way (maybe even overcompressed) while logging force and distance and then let it sit fully compressed overnight. Then release it and compress it again and compare the graphs to see if the spring lost any "springiness".

Safety first, last, and always. Thank you.
