Learning Metal Spinning! Making Hubcaps for Wheels - DIY

There are quit a few restoration channels on YouTube, but this is the only one I watch. The way you strive for perfection and your attention to even the smallest detail inspires me to do better in my own work.

I love the fact that you show us that you don't actually know everything, and admit you're still learning new techniques. Kudos.

Voice was broken so he made a new one. Nice!

About the voice... yes, more of this, You're a natural narrator.

Just when you think this channel can't get any better you started speaking, wow amazing what a game changer.

In my youth i did a lot of spinning. Try using a bar of soap like Sunlight Soap for lubrication. Multi position tool rest is a good idea. The thing you call a negative form is called a chuck by spinners. You did a good job especially learning on your own without a mentor!

Honestly, I'm really glad you not only kept, but actively still use that beverly shear. It's a unique tool that you just don't see on youtube, and since it was the first of your videos that I found, it's nice to see it make a cameo from time to time.

It's very good to listen to Toto Wolff's overvoice! 😂

It is a poor worksman who blames his tools, but a master knows that you need the right tool for for the right job.

The first attempt was perfect, you just needed to change the title to “I make a cymbal”.

Oh my god he talks, HE ACTUALLY TALKS! :-) You sound exactly how I thought a Swiss genius would sound.

Finally hearing your voice after like 5 years being subscribed is like hearing the voice of God

I like the way that you design and use your own bespoke tools to meet new challenges. Very satisfying!

Ever the student. “I don’t know how to do something. Give up? No. I research and study until I find the best way and then practice my newly learned craft. Now I retained a new skill. Another book in my vast mental library. “

Discovering your channel a few years ago, when you first started posting videos, completely changed my understanding of manufacturing and materials. I had been interested as a DIYer for years, but had never gotten very deep. But watching you restore tools - identifying what could simply be cleaned, what needed restoration, what had to be replaced entirely, and what could be improved upon - and how those processes could be approached - that completely flipped my perspective. I now recognize that if you understand the properties of a material, why certain components and products are designed the way they are, and what can be done to shape a material to make it suitable for performing the function you need performed - you can make anything. Anything can be replaced, or rebuilt better, or fixed hastily in a pinch. I know you didn't invent any of that, and certainly aren't the only creator on YouTube producing this kind of content - but you're my favorite, and I've learned so much watching your channels. Thank you.

I love that you kept the first failed attempt in the video and went through it in full detail before approaching the problem again with improvements to tools and techniques. I also really appreciate the voiceover, we get more detail and insight into how you think with each step. Excellent work as usual, I love seeing your work! :D

Работа этого мужика - как эталон , на который нужно равняться и восхищаться

I was a metal spinner for 10 years & I can say great effort for a newbie. Your not classed as spinner until you have stitches from a cut.

I love how you freely admit the limits of your knowledge and take us with you as you develop new skills. As great to hear you talking us through the process.

I love going back to your older videos! And to see you using tools I watched you restore just makes it all the better! :)
