Just wanted to say Thanks for my new shrinker stretcher from Baileigh Industrial. It was a very difficult decision picking a tool from such a great selection. As you might have seen in some of the pictures in my posts, I already use their shrinker stretcher. and the bottom line is it works. I wanted to pick something that I would use a lot, and so far Ive used this tool on every panel Ive made for Johns 27 T. The reason why I chose another one is because now I can leave the shrinking jaws in one and the stretching jaws in the other. I have used many different kinds of these tools and this one is definitely the best bang for the buck. It does 18 guage steel no problem and that's what I need since that is what i am most commonly using. most of them out there can stretch but any one under 1200 bucks that i have used cant shrink 18 gauge worth squat. Take it from me Im about as hard as they come on tools and this one works like the day I got it. Thanks Baileigh, I'm sure I will be using it every day Sincerely ~CustomJ
Dude, thats so kool, that curve is nice didnt know you can do that with those.. You desirve it... Just dont shrink your finger!!! God bless you..
just finished reading how you hate to change the jaws back and forth and now problem solved! congrats to a deserving winner. and hats off to baileigh for running the contest. good luck, mike
a better more capable winner could not have been chosen. i cant wait to get to your level of fabrication skill...
well I don't know about that haha. I still need to roll out the belly pan and a rear roll pan as well, nothing has hinges, bust the general shaping is there, I just got the front end to where the inner structure is holding the panels in position but it still needs gaps, john and I just put the car on the rack to make the belly pan, heres what the front looks like. as of now. I have been struggling with this nose and im finally starting to like it now that I cut the opening into it. like I said, i still need to get proper gaps on the front, its not done yet but its finally in the right direction, lost a lot of sleep over this thing...
