Lineup magnets holding them in place.

Great hammer-form-work Andy! You're making it look effortless again. Keep this up and it will be done before you know it. My elbow still aches for you though.

Are you planning to replace it piece by piece using the original to keep things aligned or as a whole assembly? The former is more work but tends to have less surprises at the end I reckon.

Sheet metal **** welding clamps like these are also very handy if you don't already have some: https://www.harborfreight.com/****-welding-clamps-8-pc-60545.html

 

[drivesitfar]

Andy: it's great that you take on those fabrication challenges and most of all show all of us that might not have a clue or know how just how you did it. would you mind showing the tool that you are using to cut the old rusty bottom of your door off for those of us that are not sure which tool or method might work best?

i hope your bull shows up at the barn soon cause i'm worried about his leg. hopefully he's ok and maybe just putting it in the mud at the creek sort of like our mud baths to take the infection out of it.

best of luck on the fabrication and hoping all your hard work and thinking pays off.

Hi Andy
Your metal shaping is going well I'd say

So what's a 99 with flake. I would hate to disappoint on your first visit.

Thanks for the kind words. My grand daughter may be forty before the truck is finished but I'm having fun!

Well, if I told you what a 99 with a flake was, then we'd all know.

I'm not sure what the original poster was referring to but I've had soft serve cones with a flake of chocolate stuck in it. Not sure what the 99 refers to, though.

Great job!

Thanks Vladimir!!

For a self taught tin knocker you do very well.

I wouldn't say self taught, I have a book It sure would be nice to have an experienced guy say "no, do it this way".

Thanks for the positive statement!

I love C3s...would like a '69 w/ a 427 someday. Stingray.

Well just buy one, they're just going up!

Thank you sir!

Andy,
It is looking good.

Thanks! Slow going, for sure.

Great hammer-form-work Andy! You're making it look effortless again. Keep this up and it will be done before you know it. My elbow still aches for you though.

Thanks! If it wasn't 12 gauge it would be a lot easier. I hope this is like sand volleyball, when I finally get back to 18 gauge i hope it iwll be easier.

Are you planning to replace it piece by piece using the original to keep things aligned or as a whole assembly? The former is more work but tends to have less surprises at the end I reckon.

I'm scared to do anything other than piece by piece. And for this truck, I'm trying to keep the hidden parts looking kind of like original. I may abandon that madness, though.

Sheet metal **** welding clamps like these are also very handy if you don't already have some: https://www.harborfreight.com/****-welding-clamps-8-pc-60545.html

I did buy some of those, if I can find them. Thanks for the suggestion.

Andy: it's great that you take on those fabrication challenges and most of all show all of us that might not have a clue or know how just how you did it. would you mind showing the tool that you are using to cut the old rusty bottom of your door off for those of us that are not sure which tool or method might work best?

Thanks for the good words. I'm pretty sure I don't have a clue either, but common sense goes part way. I'm just using a 3" or 4" cutoff wheel.

i hope your bull shows up at the barn soon cause i'm worried about his leg. hopefully he's ok and maybe just putting it in the mud at the creek sort of like our mud baths to take the infection out of it.

Yep, bull is on my mind too.

best of luck on the fabrication and hoping all your hard work and thinking pays off.

Thank you so much!

Thanks for all the comments, guys!

 

[Rex_A_Lott]

I'm impressed. The Z flanges on the curve isn't that easy. Guess you figured out by now it's a lot easier to stretch than to shrink. All that work makes me thirsty, thanks for the Coke.

I really had an easier time shrinking these than stretching. I think that's because I was doing it all in the form with a hammer against wood. I did fail to make a nice inside flange on the tightest corner, but I think I was trying to fold too much metal, and should have cut some out for relief.

Hope there's still dimes on top. It needs defrosting every 30 days so I'm about ready to defrost and reload.

Didn't have much shop time today, but I did find time to take the driver's side (that would be left) bulkhead out at the back of the running board.

It was spot welded on three sides, and a little tedious to drill out the spot welds. But out they came

It needs a little repair, and having one of two factory tags on it, it's kind of a focal point so it needs a good repair. That exposes the inside of where I've been working. there is another hat section rib that is rusted off, both sides. I think it just fades into the top of the running board since below that is where the other hat section gets thicker. This may be a challenge to get welded in.

Now I need to brace the door opening in the proper alignment before cutting out more metal.

Thanks for stopping by!

 

[BBChevro]

Like Guster said, you do make it look easy - but I know that it's not.

Great work.

 

[Ole Slewfoot]

I wouldn't say self taught, I have a book It sure would be nice to have an experienced guy say "no, do it this way".

I had a real experienced mentor who would watch and laugh, then say 'Here is where you went off the rails'.
Maybe he thought I'd learn better the hard way.

 

[slimpickins]

Andy,
I suspect you're a visual learner as am I. If I can watch someone doing something - preferably the right way - I'm a good imitator even though I may not get the best results right away.

I haven't posted much because frankly I just read your thread with my jaw hanging down!

Body work is definitely an art! I tried doing a bit of body work years ago in the days before YouTube, and after I'd been trying to fix a dent for a few days, a friend with years of experience came over for 20 minutes and showed me some techniques for what I had been trying to do and it was like magic! I was able to do much better after that, but I realized how much I needed to learn. It sure looks like you've got a few years of experience in doing this kind of work!

I wish I had access to YouTube back then. Now you can google up an expert demonstration for almost anything.

Now I just need more time.

Cheers!

 

[xtremek]

Thanks for the step by step. It all makes sense now.

 

[oldironfarmer]

Like Guster said, you do make it look easy - but I know that it's not.

Great work.

Thank you! So far it's been pretty easy, just really slow. It is pretty exciting to be able to do this stuff, even if it is crude I'm convinced I can patch up the old truck.

I had a real experienced mentor who would watch and laugh, then say 'Here is where you went off the rails'.
Maybe he thought I'd learn better the hard way.

There is a lot to just diving in and trying. Beginning blacksmiths often can't get started and common advice (including from me) is to just heat some metal and beat on it.

I spend a lot of time looking and wondering what i should do next.

Andy,
I suspect you're a visual learner as am I. If I can watch someone doing something - preferably the right way - I'm a good imitator even though I may not get the best results right away.

I do all right reading and comprehending. but it all seems different once you actually start doing what you've been reading about. In trying to learn foundry work I realized there are lots of bad examples on YouTube. So if you're watching videos, you just can't stop with only one. Being left handed, some demonstrations don't work out so well for me.

I haven't posted much because frankly I just read your thread with my jaw hanging down!

I know nothing about dent removal. My grandson says he'll show me. On the Studebaker my plan is to replace the rusted portions and make him do the body work for his sister. My first sheet metal work was the Massey Ferguson dash modification. I have learned a lot about stretching and shrinking and am learning how to straighten simple stuff without warping it. Easy when you know how

They just started the internet too late for me

I'm in the same boat on time, even with six Saturdays, time is flying by

Thanks for the step by step. It all makes sense now.

Thank you for the kind words. It seems to be a universal truth that things you understand are simple, those you don't are complex. for many years I have tuned out someone explaining something to me when they say "this is pretty hard" and home in on those (like my college algebra teacher) who say "this is pretty simple". I never fail with that philosophy.

Today all I got done was moving the Corvette into the shop for my grandson to work on it. And started to make a grate walkway for my son's cattle guard. My daughter in law and grand daughter have trouble walking across the the cattle guard so he wants a flip up walkway. Started out cutting the good part out of some old grating. Love the plasma cutter!

Had two pieces like that, and they are now welded end to end. Pictures tomorrow

Thanks for the visits everyone!!

Andy, your comment about being left-handed reminded me of an opportunity. Gloves come in pairs and I have little to no use for the left ones. The only exception are my MIG and TIG gloves -- they work fine turned inside out (becoming a right glove). I kept all those left gloves in a box but threw them out after reading about GJ members cleaning up their shops. I don't recall seeing you wearing gloves but if you'd like I can send you my future leftover lefties. Fair Warning -- I don't buy expensive gloves because I shred them in short order.

 

[shortykorte]

Lilac a dog, Pond Rosa. I view my thread 900 times a day to see if anyone posted. Andy there's no comments we can make that compete with your own.
Like others, I've been busy with work, hurricanes and moving so I'm barely keeping up with everyone's threads.
Also like others, getting into some of the fab work, all I can do is look, learn and appreciate. Good job.
p.s to help you get your post count up I give you this.

Also, Studebaker trucks are the coolest of all the 50's era trucks.

[Unruh]

First of all I gotta say I kinda feel like after reading this entire thread today, I may know you well enough to invite you over for Thanksgiving dinner. I showed my father-in-law it and he sat reading to the end as well. He is a retired farmer/rancher and kept laughing and showing his wife the tractors and other equipment. Thanks for sharing all this with us all!

 

[BBChevro]

...I feel like I know you well enough to invite you over for Thanksgiving dinner...

I think that Andy probably has that effect on many of us - particularly anyone who either grew up on a farm or (like me) had friends who did.

 

[BBChevro]

Andy, the "cattle guard" that your building a walkway across would be what we refer to as a "grid" (or "cattle grid")?
A lot of ones here have a narrow plank at one end to walk across (too narrow and too close to the fence post for any cattle to attempt it).

Interesting concept, but I think you're wrong handed. Inexplicably I seem to always wear out my right gloves. I have a friend here who lost his left arm a couple of years ago at 65. We got to talking one day and I said sure, I'll take your left gloves and give you some right gloves to boot. I was actually surprised to find my worn through gloves were all rights. I had not noticed that before. And I'm not sure why, even though I'm pretty much ambidextrous. One example I can think of is the brake/shear. I'm handling sharp metal with my right hand while operating the lever with my left hand. Oh well, thanks for the thought!

You're checking your thread 900 times a day too? Wow, what a coincidence!!

And you really did log on my thread! I saw the picture and had to stave off laughter. That was almost pulp fiction...

Thanks for the kind words.

Anyway.

Yes Andy there is much to learn from you

Thank you, I learn much from you as well!

hows your bull

I'm thinking he may be OK, I haven't seen any vultures, but I can't find him either. I look every time I have a chance, but he is one tough cookie if he has survived.

Thanks for sharing lol this with us all!

All right!! I love Thanksgiving dinner Can I bring a couple of pecan pies? I hope your father in law will be there. I am in serious need of advice on cattle...

If possible, I'd like to bring my wife. And son in law, and his wife and their four grand children, and my sister in law, and her husband, my grandson/brother in law, and of course his daughter and her boyfriend. Would it be too much to bring my neighbor across the street who lost his wife this year? And my Zumba teacher and her husband and their two adult daughters might make it too.

This is really sounding like fun. I'll ask my son if he might want to bring his family of five. I'm getting excited.

Thank you so much!!! What can I say? Except you're a swell guy and we all appreciate the generous invitation!

Would it be too much to ask for us to make menu suggestions?

(talked to my brother and they already have a commitment, but my sister and her extended family sounded interested. Hope your not too disappointed about my brother)

Andy, I could be (and usually am) wrong but in my youth when I didn't wear gloves my left hand was always wounded. If it wasn't an errant hammer blow, it was the slip of a knife, saw or other tool. Probably just as well it's gone because I didn't take good care of it.

 

[oldironfarmer]

Sorry, I'm already committed to Thanksgiving dinner. Might be available for 2018 though. That would be quite a road trip

Wait, you guys don't even do Thanksgiving, do you. No pilgrims, no nothing. Oh yeah, I remember your "Pilgrims"... never mind.
You're just joking, just making fun, I get it. You know a sensitive person could have their feelings hurt.

I'm kind of thinking we have a new family tradition at Unruh's house anyway, so I'll get over it, just forget about next year mate.

Andy, the "cattle guard" that your building a walkway across would be what we refer to as a "grid" (or "cattle grid")?
A lot of ones here have a narrow plank at one end to walk across (too narrow and too close to the fence post for any cattle to attempt it).

That would be the same. This one is made of 4" pipe on the top. And the sides are sloped outward. I've not seen a walk plank but see how that would work well. The flip up grating is my son's design, and being related to me, I was apprehensive about offering suggestions.

A quick update, I went out early this morning to see how my grandsons and their friend did in the tent last night. They had gone a quarter mile out into the pasture. I got there just before sunup and they weren't up yet. Wish I'd taken a picture. There was Hershey guarding their tent. She is such a good dog. They said she was the perfect alarm clock, barked at something every half hour all night long. After a couple of hours they gave up trying to see what she was barking at. She was glad to see me and I did not wake them up, the sun heating the tent would do that soon enough.

I finished the walkway, determined the driveshaft they brought from the purple car had good u-joints (but did find where something has been wearing on it, 10" from the transmission tailshaft), found a very worn tire (terrible alignment probably bad ball joint) so decided to load the Corvette on son in law's trailer and haul it to Oklahoma City myself and pick up grand son's old truck which needs brake line replacement. We all left about noon and got back at dark thirty. Great road trip, my wife went along and we had a good time.

The Ford also needs the cab pulled off and rusted cab supports replaced and reinforced. I begged and I get to do it!

Thanks for all the comments today, and I appreciate everyone looking in. I was only able to check in a couple hundred times.

Very interesting concept and excellent justification of reality!(Probably just as well it's gone)

On the other hand, I seem to injure my left hand more, glove wear notwithstanding.

However, I find you are usually not wrong, in fact are usually right, except under the spousal judgement category where you have not only never won a medal, you've struggled to get second place.

I may need your help replacing brake lines on the pickup. Should be a piece of cake for a man of your experience.

Thanks for dropping in

Andy: I don't know how much help Bob would be on the brake lines. You have 2 lifts and he seemed to really enjoy laying on his back (with or without the welding blanket) to accomplish the line replacement. The higher clearance of the Ford truck from his Corvette might throw him off his game also.

Kenny, you nailed it. I do some of my best work and have some of my best naps lying down under the vehicle. With the reduced blood flow to my brain while standing I would likely end up passed out on the floor, becoming a tripping hazard. Then it's tighten a fitting, move Bob, bleed a cylinder, move Bob, etc. etc.

 

[drivesitfar]

Andy: any Bull sightings cause a lot of BULL going on in the thread? I also love your tutorials and daily postings and even though i post (or did before i went MIA) a lot i still could say more cause you tell a great story with most or all your pictures.

best of luck with the fab stuff and i think we need to see some pics of your granddaughter pounding on and welding up some metal if that might be a possibility.

hope you are having a great weekend

Yeah, both my lifts are ******* so we're (assuming you will help) going to work on the Ford on the floor. I'll put you on a creeper so it's easier to move you when you pass out.

Thanks for stopping by, Drives. No bull sightings, and no granddaughter pictures. She has not been back. They've got a little stuff down in OKC they are working on and I'm working here. They will come up and help before long.

Thanks for the visits, guys!

 

[Farmall450]

Hopefully you haven't see the buzzards yet!

 

[oldironfarmer]

Hopefully you haven't see the buzzards yet!

Haven't seen any buzzards, so there's still hope. It's cooling of this week I'll take another stroll through the woods and look for him. So far he has not rejoined the herd.

Thanks for the visit!

I made a bit of progress today. After taking Hershey in to be spayed (stressful on both of us) I reinforced the driver's side door post on the Studebaker. 3/8" rebar from the floor pan to the rear door post and another across the door opening.

The bottom of the front door post is free, and it was 7/16" closer to the rear door post than the other side. I measured the doors and they are identical so I figure the door openings need to be identical too.

Rolled an offset flange at the bottom of the new floor plate to match the original. The bead roller made a nice flange but I couldn't roll it in the area of the stiffing rib so I had to finish that area by hand. A blunt chisel on the rib form worked quite well.

It came out OK, I thought. There is a break in the bottom of this piece so the offset has a bend in it.

Fit, trimmed, fit and trimmed, and wound up with more gap than I started with. I should have stopped there and regrouped another day. But I persevered, intent on doing as much damage as possible.

Lineup magnets holding the left side and panel clamps holding the right side. The I proceeded to tack it, and burn holes, etc. Nobody told me lineup magnets would grab the welding wire. And the lineup clamps are really hard to weld close too. Bending over the alignment rod I put in, I could not get close enough see to weld. But I persevered, intent on doing as much damage as possible.

Good news is the picture does not show how bad the welding really is. I need to go back to gas welding. I finally got inside the transmission floor opening (tight fit) and could get close enough to see to weld and did better closing up the large gap at the far end. Precisely why I'm starting with the floor pan. Maybe I'll get some better, but it's not looking that way. I would up with a sore back from leaning into the cab. Tonight was Zumba night, and I went in bent over and crooked but after exercise my back feels great. I plan to persevere once again tomorrow, intent on doing as much damage as possible.

Thanks for joining my pity party.

We'll just call you sparky.

 

[Ole Slewfoot]

I have some copper pipe pounded flat and folded over a few times I can clamp behind the sheet metal. It helps to build a puddle instead of just burning through. It also seems to help to use thinner wire than you would for anything else.

 

[TMcCay]

Andy, while I haven't used it ESAB makes a welding wire called easy grind. It is purpose is for auto body work. May be worth checking into.
Keep up the great work. I look forward to checking into your progress each day and stay amazed at your talents.

 

[drivesitfar]

Andy: i love your GET R DONE attitude and keep posting up your cool pictures of the good (and the bad) so some of us can keep learning about this stuff. of course you are learning to do it HANDS ON so even if you are making mistakes i bet you will make it work and do better the next time.

i hope your bull shows up today!!

did you see how close the fire was in pictures on Don's thread? GEESH i hope the winds didn't change overnight cause he was already moving cars out of his cool garage.

take care and we are all still watching as you teach us while you are learning.

cheers

Thanks for the comments! Two days of rain, and I haven't been in the pasture. I need to go look for that bull.

Haven't seen Don's thread, I need to go look.

I'm still trying. My wife says sometimes I'm very trying...

 

[Farmall450]

I think that should be your new motto:

Intent on doing as much damage as possible

 

[The_Geologist]

I'm still trying. My wife says sometimes I'm very trying...

Laughed out loud at that one, because my wife would say the same about me.

Just popped in to check the progress. I enjoy following along with the various projects.

OK, you're right, it's going on the signature line. Thanks! And thanks for the suggestion...

My wife is a very kind person, but many years ago, when she first met my work group, she said "I want to apologize in advance for anything Andy may say or do in the future". She got a good laugh, but she may have been serious.

Thanks for the visit, and I'm glad you enjoy the thread.

 

[oldironfarmer]

It rained most of the day today, no bull.

Finished up welding the first floor pan piece in. Put too much heat on it and wound up with a bow on the bottom.

I had raised it up and tilted so I could get in easily to grind the weld.

Then raised it on up and ground the bottom of the weld. You can see the bow here, the gap at the brace at the top. Now I can learn to take the bow out of a panel.

Got the inside and outside ground and planished the weld a bit to straighten the buckle at the weld.

I'm glad this weld in on the floor board. Maybe I'll get better.

Going to raise it up from here to remove the rest of the driver's side running board reinforcement. The hoist is working out well.

I am working on the cab with it suspended from the chain hoists which is not recommended. I tie it to the far side to keep it from swinging.

Thanks for stopping by!

 

[dreamingmuscle]

He really isn't telling any bull it did rain all day here.


You sir need a rotisserie for that stud.
