Videos

I put a couple new videos on YouTube.


The first video shows how I make cowboy hats. I have taught several folks how to make them. This should broaden that list a bit.

The second one is just a little more action (still drawing) with the 3B. I should soon be playing with tooling on it.

Nice video, Dave. Thanks for sharing. The only thing that I have done differently on centering the piece at the start is to weld on a couple of small arms to the bottom swage and turn the ends up 90 degrees. That holds every one centered. But you did a great job on them. I have never made any as small as you have. Those are cool. Thanks again for sharing. :)

Thanks for sharing Dave. The hat looks like a great student project. The 3B is just great. A local smith here has one and I was really impressed with it's power and control.
