So excited to see an update for a new video of yours!! It's cool to see your press too, I got to use a bigger one like that at a guys shop I burnt out car parts for (at my old job working at a machine shop...I designed parts and tan the laser) We had a big brake press at the shop too and made a lot of stuff for a local company that rebuilds mining cars and trolleys for Disney so that was cool. I burnt out a lot of instrument panel covers and different other parts for the cars. But we had to bend some longer parts for this kiosk type cabinet thing, which was like 24 guage, and needed tighter bends than what we could do on our big press. He said to bring all that shit to his place and use his bender...so it was really cool. I got to do a lot of awesome stuff and now I'm just sort of trying to find something to get back in that sort of environment. I don't know if I'll ever find something that cool but maybe someday! It was a whole machine shop. I can't program cncs, but I can run them and set them up. Enough about me, it's awesome to see how you make all your trailer pieces. You're a hell of a craftsman! Kudos to you!!

That sounds really interesting! All my equipment is small which makes sense for the toy stuff but it limits what i can do outside of it and that pisses me off at times. I want to do more different stuff but I don't have the space to upgrade equipment so I'll just shut up and suffer with what I have.lol

@@RCP57 hahaha "and that pisses me off" I just laughed aloud at that real good. I know what you mean about small stuff for crafting and nothing more. My dad has a big manual Bridgeport mill and a old threading lathe. Which can be more than for threading. I guess I don't even do cool shit, so I have the opposite problem. Im bad at hobbies, I get bored easily or feel like "well I did that...now what" a lot. Don't let me rub off on you because I envy your focus and follow through. I need to come up with a product already. The laser was the best machine I ever ran. It was just fun to cut shit out. And with thin stuff, or when I used ridiculous scrap pieces to get 1-2 more parts out...I'd just hold stuff with a piece of metal, or sometimes just hold it. Like guilting...only the needle will burn/melt while it puts holes in your hands 😄 totally worth it though haha I did burn myself on time testing the focus. We used tape over the tips. Press a button to shoot a small beam so you could realign it. Well I continued holding the button while I started taking the tip off and pressed the trigger and zapped the tip of my finger. It made me jump and I looked at my finger. Had a tiny black dot on it. I thought "well that ain't so baaAAAAAWHH FUUU" and that's when the nerves around the ones that got evaporated caught up with my brain haha I had this long healing scab that slowly bealed out my finger tip for over a month. Good times

It's also funny to me it says "magnum" because my dad always said that about everything. Like if it was the brand new thing, he'd jokingly go "oooh, fuckin magnum!" Haha

And that’s how it’s done folks. Looks simple but it’s not. I’ve bent many a crooked piece. :) lol

I've bent my share of crooked pieces as well my friend. The real trick is knowing how to make it look like it was intentional and that's where my true skill comes in. LOL
