New tools, bigger and better.
Today we built a hydraulic press. Well, it wasn't built in just a day but we did make it within a week which I am impressed with so you should be too. The tool uses the force of a hydraulic cylinder to form and shape metal. We chopped up the old press, used it for parts, added a new and stronger cylinder, painted it to make it pretty, and enhanced it with its very own mascot named "Shop Troll." With a large working window, we will be able to work on larger pieces with ease. It is a big addition and upgrade to the studio and makes the mini cooper look even more mini.
