Video #6 as described in the title is about the different types of tools you may not have known existed. I just picked a few different ones to demonstrate their uses in metal fabrication. I also give step by step instruction's how to make simple scribe.
Here are a list of the tools:
Hand Punches: Whitney #5, #8,
Stanley Adjustable Scribe: Part # 47-091 Double scribe Part # 47-090 Single
Prick Punch (Store bought and homemade)
Marking Scribe (Store bought and homemade)
Unishear
Double Cuts
Cone Bits
Pattern for the larger Christmas Tree Scribe at end of video.
I may have not listed everything we talked about. Let me know if you have any questions. I enjoy all the feedback! Thank you for watching Sheet Metal is Fun.
**We left our swamp cooler on throughout the video as we are experiencing several days of triple digit temperatures and I didn't want you to see me sweat!!

Hi Ken. It's a pleasure to have a master craftsman teach us his trade. Please be encouraged that people are watching and learning from your well presented videos. I'm looking forward to more challenging techniques as you share your experience with us. Thanks from Australia.

Wonderful video seeing your use of tools of the trade. Even having the super heavy duty rotary Proper Whitney hole punches is a help punching up to 1/2 inch thick steel on occasion is a time saver. Being a retired machinist and sheet metal fabricator I hate drilling holes with chips flying all over. A single punch out is so much cleaner, plus the holes are perfectly round. Seeing your sheet metal home made scribes is a great too, having journeyman sheet metal showing me to make them nearly fifty years ago. Thank you for The great videos that are plain and clear instructions.

Thank you, Ken. Lot's of good information. I appreciate you teaching people how to work, so many people now days don't understand what work is or how to do it well.

@stuartkorte1642

Great information. I have all the tools except the XL Whitney and the scribes. A lot of needed info and tips. Thanks

@ryanmacewen511

WOW. I never knew the self-drilling screws were mainly reserved for thicker sheet metals. I've done a lot of projects, and worked with many of the tools in your videos. However, I was never shown how to best use them. My ego is not my amigo. ;)

@CliffsideStables

Great instructional skills! Thanks for the video. Tim in northern TN

@terryrogers1025

Thanks for the tutorial, once again. love the gage idea, there will be one of the simple ones in my little home shop by tomorrow night, good practice for metal working technique, I do have a Milwaukee double cut already so that’s a chunk of money I don’t need to dish out again, home scribes, whole bunch of garage sale damaged screw drivers on hand to make over into scribes. I keep fooling around I might have a red neck sheet metal shop on my hands!!😮😊
