Hey

I'm excited because I bought myself a new set of dollies today and some more hammers. Sooooo, I was just wondering if anyone else has a set and would like to post any work that they've done with them? I'll post pics up of flaring my front guard inward and outward when I finish them.

Thanks

Troy

whats a dolly?

serious question :$

Panel beating tools?

makes sense

yep, panel beating tool. They come in different shapes and sizes and have many purposes. Xany, what do you use your dollies for......

that's a nice set just so you can put a face to names :)

is there a tutorial anywhere on guard rolling, ive never really worked out how its done and havnt seen any step by step write up and pics on the process, always intrigued me

doesnt really matter anyway, i can't roll my guards, their shape is created via bog, so theyd just fall to bits :)

thanks, i did search once, but not very hard...

my bad

Nick! Have a little faith dude. I just like using them on anything I can. Everyone always goes on about how hard it is to do it with a dolly but you can get really good results it's just about practice and patience as you've said. and LOL gotta love the off topics, I'm great at doing those hahaha.

haha, how does a billion practices say. I like to practice before undertaking anything...probably a not so good thing as it wastes alot of time, but never mind. Yeah dollies are 'da bomb.' REALLY off topic question - who hear knows when you use a semi-colon?

you use a semi colon when you have two sentences that are so closely related that they are not completely seperate sentances, however they are structured as two seperate sentences so a comma can't be used

if that makes sense :wink:

My guards were rolled by cutting the inside lip then pulled out into the correct position then a thin rod was welded into the inside lip.

makes sense :wink:

thankyou for the semi colon explanation; it was spot on. How's that? wrong lol.

AH yes, I've done a similar thing to what you've explained, but I wasn't flaring my guards so to speak.

lol not bad effort, its hard to create an example, i tried to think of one last night but couldnt manage, and I'm not opening up my old enlish assignments to find where i have used one :wink:
