How to Cut & Bend Sheet Metal : Cutting Procedures for Using Hand-Held Metal Shears

[Dercommandingofficer]

Hi, im trying to pop a little dome / ridge that is less then 1cm long into a piece of metal container so when i close it, the lid will stick on to the little tiny dome so the lid will stay closed because currently nothing is holding it closed. If anyone knows what i am talking about can they please answer me or tell me what kind of tool can do this, im thinking some kind of handheld tool like a wrench that and press it and pop out the dome. Thanks.

I am completely lost as why anyone with such an naturally obvious lack of knowledge regarding sheet-metal work would post an educational video purporting to show the correct method for using electric hand shears and purport to be an expert on the subject.I`m truly dumbfounded!

talking of safety :  wear GLOVES with this machine you "experts" !!!…

(filing doesn't require them as long as you've got ou eyes and hands at the right place … )

[chaywoo]

these 'expert village' videos always suck like this one does..

[bananaphonehome]

a small burr...

[schnappy00]

Well I learnt that you can get electric sheers...

His filing doesn't seam to be doing much though.

I dont like expert village , and i dont like watching comercials on you tube

[Ibringthetruth1]

Ehow = spam and fake website.

all their info is garbage.

[reddeancaddy]

Expertvillage? more like shitvillage

anyone who has this tool already will not need to watch this video. anyone who doesnt have this tool will not be satisfied by their search results. anyone who needs to watch this video should not even be operating power tools

[chomsky72]

This video series is not completely useless. It has some safety tips and for someone who may not be a gearhead but would like to cut sheet metal (think a print maker artist who wants to cut his/her own etching copper plates) there may be some tidbits of info.

Sheeit, a union thug to make our day. Icky

[friggydiggy81]

spoken like someone who doesn't make a living wage.... heaven for fend a person earn enough money to sustain a middle class lifestyle for working around dangerous equipment and chemicals, not to mention carpal tunnel and a host of other side effects from actually working. yeah, no union members ever built anything. millions of product just magically appear out of nowhere. stockholders are the real heroes, huh?

[pancakepie2]

Oh, quit your crying. I have several friends that are union thugs and we all get along great. Just like anybody else, we all can learn some from others whether union or non-union. I happen to be non-union, and that doesn't make me better than anybody else, well, except union members I guess...

See, just for that, my buds are gonna raz me like no tomorrow...But that's ok, cuz we will still go fishing and they will catch more than I will...That I guarantee...

[friggydiggy81]

some are under the illusion that our economy is a result of greedy unions. few bitched about wages and benefits when companies made record profits during the halcyon daze when nafta and gatt were first instituted and before it helped destroy our ability to sustain itself. so, it'd seem unions aren't the reason why these co.'s are in the hurt they're in. co.'s cashing in for a fast buck and consumers placing price over quality kills workforces. ironic how most of EV vids have 230 volt adverts.

[zernestro]

i'm sorry but why is this useful at all?

[tinnerman88]

John,Im a union journeyman in Los Angeles and you seriously need some speedier shop techniques

[captzack005]

Dude, you could just take another break and discuss how to bitch about getting another raise. The union workers I've met are slow as hell.

[itin4265]

oh cmon cant we all just get along? we are all just trying to put food on the plate at the end of the day.

[kevinharps]

How thick of metal can that tool cut? How Much does a tool like that run.

[big92fs]

Nice work John.
