I agree, but my time is so limited that I'd spend those many hours on other parts of the car.

The work is art!

 

COOL!

I just spent some time on the phone with John (the winner). Could not ask for a nicer guy, very humble and very appreciative. It's nice to see people like him win our contests.

Thanks again John and let's see some pictures of the new brake in your shop!

 

This is why I love the H.A.M.B.!!! Thank you very much for sharring this valuable info & with such skill! Way Cool!!!

 

Wow, I'm a happy fabricator!... just want to say thanks again to everyone that voted for me. All the positive comments mean a great deal. H.A.M.B. is a tremendous resource with so many skilled members I feel a bit lucky especially being a new guy on the block.

I also would like to extend a grateful thank you to Shane Henderson and Baileigh Industrial for sponsoring tech week.

Pictures of the brake will be comming soon!

 

Read it twice.. Still amazed. That is some skill and craftsmanship!

 

Congrats John. This is an awesome thread. I've made my share of A rails, But these are just awesome. I know a shit-ton of hours went into them. Nice work and a well deserved win!

This is one of the best informative tech that I seen so far great job and thanks for posting!!

 

Wanted to add my kudos...great craftsmanship and write up!!
I'll never complain about one of my own custom pieces taking too long to make! Thanks for sharing that.

 

nice job.
hopefully there'll be more like that as you go..

thanks.

 

wow...so much for picking up the catalog and ordering some repops...
amazing! and very nice craftsmanship!

 

How could I add something that has not already been said. An amazing piece of work. Congrats!

D A H M !!!!!! those are some SWWWEEEEEETTTTTT rails.......

 

Amazing, I just read and studied all that, and I'm sure I still couldn't do that, even if I studied it a hundred more times..

 

speechless.....................

 

not only does he have great tech skills he also has talent in the camera department! heres food for thought: the hamb needs to find a sponser that would pony up a really nice digital camera also (nothing against the current sponser at all) to keep the tech rolling with even better pic's. read through the post 3 times and....

 

Great fab work man!!

 

Can you elaborate on what a "string buff" is? I'd love to learn how to finish metal like that.

 

The string buff with the belt on it is something that I kind of invented on my own. The belts are normally used on a pneumatic rubber tire but I never cared for the finish (streaky looking). The string buff is normally used by itself with a greaseless abrasive on it to help finish odd shaped stainless steel pieces. When you put a belt on it the strings hold the belt with centrifugal force. The belt is very unstable when doing this and will easily fly off. It takes a bit of practice to master it but it gives a very nice finish. I guess I’ve had too many years finishing stainless steel…that’s why these rails kind of look like stainless.

 

Impressive enough for your first set of homemade deuce rails....but next time I'll expect to see stainless or aluminum...I mean cmon....you call yourself a Tech Winner?!?!?!

lol

j/k...but it would be really cool to see them built to last till jesus comes back.
