what is that for?

I'm pretty sure you ram a flat piece of metal between the 2 wheels, roll it back and forth, gradually bending the metal. At least that's how I saw it on TV.

With that I can do it faster! , and crush a finger or two to boot.



On the serious side, I can weld that up for ~75.00 Vs. 600 to buy a small one!!!

we have one of those, definitely need to watch the fingers.



my dad is like an amateur metal working guy, he does tons of body work on his old tractors and ****.



it's definitely a hard skill.

no machine will ever replace a good set of hands.



Man makes cars out of clay molds, then its machines that takes

over from there using the molds that were created by human hands.



Fikse- That machine pounds metal into the shapes you want it
