English Wheel?

TOOLS1
Administrator
I have been wanting an English Wheel for some time now, and have been doing some online shopping. I am just wanting one to work dents out of fenders, and make side panels... Nothing too big, or heavy. Also I do not have much room for one in the toolshed. I just came across this little bench-top unit. You just clamp it in your vise when you want to use it. I also notice it comes with the dies, which are not included with Harbor Freight, or many others. Any opinions?  http://www.amazon.com/Grizzly-T25101-English-Whee-Length/dp/B00DQJOKUS/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hi_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0P6W6PYF3WPJ1CFXH9GC#productDetails

Not a bad price. With that and one of those cheap sheet metal brakes I could make my own cafe seats...

I like to make seats out of fiberglass, but I suppose it would handle 18 gauge for a seat.

That's the same wheel Chunky has, except his is blue because he bought it from Mitler Bros. I does flex some,but it's not bad. Just back off the tension and make more passes. That's the same wheel I made the seat/tail for the WB.

Jut watch your fingers. It is soo easy to get in the rhythm and pinch yourself with one of these things.

Well if Chunky is happy with it, then that's good enough for me.
