I remember the one I had as a kid. Wore the sucker out! and then some. Tried to modify it to cut iron!:biggrin: That just didn't work!
Remember getting cut fingers, splinters, kick backs from that forming tool. Would chunk a piece of wood once a while if you went too thin.
Sure miss some of those old toys we had as kids.

what is a Spin Welder?
it's a RACE CAR BUILDER!
see that Can Am.
those cars were going 260 mph when they pulled the plug.
compare that to NASCAR where surprise! they don't go faster than 200 mph.

You did what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I lost most of the parts to the one I had as a kid in the sand. Kind of like my dad's tools. He said one time "If all the tools my brother and I lost in the sand had come up and grown, it would have made him rich".
