On this episode I go over a tool I made to help stretch sheet metal.
Welcome to The Fab Forums. My name is Kyle Voss and I produce Custom Motorsports Fabrication content of all forms for you. Carbon Fiber, TIG Welding, Metal Shaping, Hot Rods, Muscle Cars, Custom Choppers, and everything in between. I work hard to bring you new content on a weekly basis.
Here are some of the builds you can find on this channel.
I have built several Chevy trucks on this channel. The first was my 1964 C10 named Crown Spoyal and the most recent C10 truck project was the 1969 I currently have named the Black Pearl.
I am also finishing up a custom twin turbo Ford Mustang build I call the Gray Goose. It’s a 400 cubic inch Windsor style engine with twin 70mm turbos. I am hoping to make around the 1000 horse power mark to the tires on this particular build.
Last but not least is the one off custom hot rod build called the Bibbster. This is what I call a modern day hot rod. It’s made from an old Ford Mustang foxbody, but made to look like an old school open wheeled hot rod.
I also feature other fabricators and shops like Cutworm Specialties hand formed aluminum wide body kit for a BMW e46. Jeb Greenstone has also built a twin turbo, coyote powered model A style hot rod from scratch, and is currently building a Toyota TE72 wagon drift car powered by a 1UZ Lexus v8. Jeb’s custom fabrication skills are fun to watch and always make for good videos.
Check out my playlist to see some or all of these builds.

Thanks, perfekt strech tool for my smal garasje. I can just switch the topwheel on the englishwheel and fix a holder for the airhammer 👍😉
That was cool 👍🏻
Very cool vid
Wow! Thanks I always learn watching you. Have I seen you have 3d print plastic planning hammer? Where or did you make those
awesome very impressive thank you for sharing
Would you be able to make that same sample you showed at the beginning of the video out of stainless? I have a guy that wants me to repair an old stainless grill. I need to make a similar part with stainless.
You chewin gum?
Very informative. Thanks for showing your equipment.
Nice demonstration
Awesome. I have more fun making tools than making the project.
That's fkn sweet
Nice tool. Question, any fancy tool material you used or just mild steel. Do you have issues with one side of the material being to thin to weld? Thanks for the video!
Great video and creativity skills!
I can tell you from experience that nothing makes a man get more creative than being broke. You'd be amazed at what you can do if you have to. LOL!
This idea is the best and quickest way to stretch sheet metal. Thanks for this Kyle. You're saving us time with your ideas 😉😉😉
Man, I never considered making dies to stretch metal with my planishing hammer… until seeing your video. Great, yet simple tool. Thanks, Kyle.🙏
Dog needs ppe
Bad ass video! Nice work thanks for the tips!
You should have a piece of card board between your shrinker stretcher jaws when your're not using them It keeps the jaws from getting damaged if you happen to hit the pedal or arm. It's not good to push your dies together either without material in between them. I know you didn't push them together very hard but, check them when you take them out to make sure you didn't damage them.
A little bit off the subject, but what size clecos do you use the most? 1/4 or 3/16? Ordering some this week.
You the man!
Always love seeing how people get creative to solve their problems. Thanks for the vid
Once again more Bad A.. Fab work!!!
Don't tear the metal
Watch them fingers
Excellent video.
Need a tool,make a tool. 🙂
