On this episode of Make It Kustom, I cover hammer and dolly techniques used for dent repair. Our replacement fender for the G10 van was crushed in a yard work accident and needed lots of work to get it back in good health.

ASMR and imparting knowledge are two extremely different things, having them compete against each other, simultaneously, is *NEVER* a good thing. It is easy to accidentally *abuse* the viewer when combining the individual "power(s)" of audio and visual. Video is so much more than the sum of it two main inputs, THAT is what makes it possible to be utterly compelling to produce AND consume. When the art and science skills are combined "magic takes place"; use it responsibly and judiciously for it resides at both ends of the good-bad spectrum. *Background music/noise/sound matters!!!*

Ive tried watching a few videos on proper hammer and dolly usage, and this on by far is one of the best ive found. Im a novice at it and when you get the hang of it spending some quality time tapping low spots out of a panel sure is relaxing and rewarding work. I like the home made slap hammer, will have to find a thrift store file and make one myself. Great work!

I'm an auto mechanic with 30+ years experience and by no means am I a body repair guy. I have an inductive heater for siezed nuts and bolts. It works absolutely amazing. My point is that you can buy all types of attachments for this tool and one attachment I bought is a panel heating pad. I have used it to heat dents, dings, and creases and then hammer them out with various hammer and wooden hammers I've made over the years. Now I have never truly been concerned with paint finish or any real technical issues but heating the metal with that inductive heater has really stepped my abilities up. It actually makes the outcome look like I know what I'm doing. I'm just curious if you or anybody here in the comments has any experience using one, and if not I do suggest trying one as it has worked for me a complete novice.

Regarding hitting a hammer with a hammer... While it's good advice for occasional hammer users or novices not to hit a hammer with another, you are a professional and understand the dynamics of what you are doing. You understand the physical properties of the metal that hammers are made of and compensate for the possibility of shattering by using a soft face hammer. This is called INNOVATING! I personally would do the same thing. The cross peen hammer is the perfect force director for what you're doing. Keep innovating!

Which is why I appreciate that you took your time to show us how to do it properly with real time and theory versus a jacked up TikTok video with edm that left my head spinning and still knowing nothing .. I’ve watched most all your videos .. thanks for the educational manner you’re taking that one can actually learn a skill.. skills take practice .. practice takes time

Once you see the idea, I don’t see the point of watching 20 minutes of realtime hammering or 30 minutes on an English wheel. At that point the only learning to be had can only come by grabbing a sheet and working it through with your own hands on your own tools. I already watch most of these at 1.5x so using up more time in a video would be an unwelcome waste of time for me. I think there’s a reasonable balance a lot of the time- making long drawn out segments out of repetitive hammering will achieve nothing with about equal benefits to watching an hour-long video of paint drying, orbital sanding of a stack of pine boards, or clouds passing overhead. The production is what it is; I’m not asking for shorter videos; I’m not his only viewer. But I surely don’t want longer videos filled with mundane tasks. Besides- and I haven’t looked- I’m sure there are plenty of videos out there of clouds passing overhead. @MakeItCustom

Brilliant, more please!

Using an assortment of household tools, claw hammer, sledgehammer, splitting wedges, screwdrivers. No Bondo, certainly not perfect, but he was happy as hell to have his trunk back.

Karl, GREAT GREAT video for us novices that are just learning to use body hammers and dollys. I like how you didn't use any of your fancy tools to do these repairs, just basic hammers and dollys. Also liked how you showed us how you improvise, like you said, use what works. I picked up a lot of good info. One thing I recognize after watching this video is that I'm using body hammers with too much of a crown when doing dolly on hammering (plannishing). I like how you showed that very small damage can cause the oil canning effect. Would love to see a video on shrinking to repair an oil canned panel hint, hint :-)

The rolled edge that you are trying to get back to original can be done with a piece of aluminum more rounded than your hammer or a piece of hardwood that has been heated. Shape the wood and then heat the area of the wood with a propane torch. It may char a bit but it will get harder. I have used these shaped pieces of wood to .act as miniature dollys. They can be great for getting out very small low spots.

I remember back in the '70s, the old shaggin wagons were everywhere. Some better than others. It was a big thing. I had a pretty sweet 66 Dodge van laid out pretty sweet. 50s on the rear 60s on the front side pipes 360 four barrel headers. Shag carpeting, mirrors on the ceiling, ice chest, pedestal table. A lot of good memories in that ole van. Can't wait to see the ole girl done up. She already has a nice stance to her. Keep On Keeping On brother! Totally enjoy the channel Karl.

@@MakeItKustom Yeah Karl she was a sweet ass van bro. She was the short van an had the ole diamond style bubble windows in her. Had the ole aluminum deep dish slots on her polished with Corvette sidepipes polished. A friend of mine which is no longer with us spent almost 2 months painting her. His own blend of colors, it was like a deep dark purplish that faded to like a light lilac that he used a actual heavy fishing net to incorporate the colors as they lightened. It was phenomenal! I've never seen another paint job remotely close to it. He was a painting genius. He painted alot of custom cars an vans back in the day. He was a little dude no more than 5' tall, and the ironic part of it is, his last name was pronounced Colors but wasn't spelt the same. I wish I still had that ole van. The ole Shaggin wagons are coming back. Life was awesome in the '70s, simple but yet explosive an memorable. I wouldn't trade my time in life for anything in the world. I appreciate seeing a young man as yourself with the skills you hold continue on the art of metal manipulation. Metal work is becoming a lost art. Keep On Keeping On Brother!!!

A video on making a stationary dolly and the accessories would be great. Your videos give me enough insight to have a go. Thanks

I'm trying to learn something new everyday.... That crease at 27:30... I would have looked at that and banged it in from the outside and you did exactly the opposite. I had no idea.

Hello Karl, I want to thank you for the few videos of yours that I have watched. They answered several questions I had for doing body work I've had for a long time. They are very educational and you are a good teacher. And what I really appreciate is there is no loud annoying obnoxious music blaring away while you are talking. In fact, I really liked the music and the low volume you kept it. I think this is a first for me. I come to KZfaq to learn and so many youtubers just don't get it. If you quickly turn off your audience by being obnoxious you have lost your audience and it really doesn't matter how much one knows, if they alienate the listener they haven't successfully taught them anything. My first love is working with wood, but I have an interest in any thing that involves using ones hands. I have a high regard for those who have fine tuned their craft and love learning from them, even if I may never use what I learn. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in a way that is enjoyable to receive.

Also, explain more about the "feel" of using different pressures on the hammer and the stretch of the metal after hammering and "shrinking" metal. Something I have struggled with.
