Here's the build of part of the ether cone as seen in the previous "How To Make A Sheet Metal Pattern From Scratch" video I posted several weeks ago and you can watch here: • How to Make A Sheet Me... .
Dealing with a steep cone shape comes with some unusual hand work, so the step-by-step is in this video!

How cool! I was just searching KZfaq getting ideas on how I could make a certain copper pendant light on my channel and found your video 😮 Not only did I get a great lesson but after you added the second shape you created, it basically was the exact shape I want to make! But I also want the whole thing to have a hammered finish. But yeah, thanks so much for the tips and information. I'm going to try and use copper from an old hot water system that I found at the dump so wish me luck 👍😎

I'm watching this to learn a skill, and I'm already impressed. Where the hell do you live that it's that cold? Canada I assume.

I am so impressed with you guys I've always wanted to do this for about 35 years of my life I was a moonshiner but I never made a complete copper still and I've always wanted to I always use stainless steel drums and then copper pipe 99.9% of old moonshiners did it this way unless they lived in the deep South and they found an old tin knocker that knew how to work 10 and copper like this and they paid a fortune for their rig I want to make a tiny still just about a gallon still not to use just as an ornament I'm too old for that nonsense now but I am a metal worker I actually make my own gears LOL and other things I could probably make half those machines if I had the plans good morning but I would love to be able to work copper like that I have always been interested in this discipline. Where would one find old machines like this? Are they still in manufacturer for the hobby?

I bet you can make that copper still!! Go for it!!! The rotary hand machines are often for sale on ebay or estate sales. You can buy Chinese-made new versions as well, or check out Pexto.

Great video I use this old school sheet metal work as a vocational sheet metal welding blacksmithing teacher You do such a good job explaining 99 percent of my teaching is industrial sheet metal work but many many time I do creative sheet metsl just like you are doing My school shop has all of your old school turning equipment jump shear sheet metal stakes etc So to summarize Bravo Zulu means job well done in the US Navy I will share your video with my vocational students What is your email I can send you my students work

It's wonderful to hear you are continuing to teach these trades and vocations! I'm thrilled to hear it - the world needs more mechanically inclined people, for sure! Thank you for your praise and your support! You are happy to email me via the contact page on my website: www.housecopper.com and I will let you know the best way to send photos of your students' work. Best!

Now can you show how to do it without fancy machines at home??

@housecopper Жыл бұрын

I can try! I think that might have to be a class separately as it will require the making of lots of special jigs and fixtures to help build anything to do the same work (which will take tons more time to do by hand vs using the machines). It's a good idea and fair as it's hard to find these machines! :)
