it's good time let's get started
well welcome back to Steve bra reviews today I'm gonna take you along with a little project I got
going on for up my hunting camp I'm making some homemade coat hooks yeah homemade I tried to go to
the store and buy some half-decent coat hooks over the last so many years it's very difficult to find
any of their half-decent especially when you're having a bunch of guys that have big heavy jackets
you know full of shells and God knows what else in there you go and hang them up and yeah they
just bend snap they're you know like everything is wiggling today you want something done you
do it yourself so this what i'm doing here i'm starting off with this steel it's 1/8 just regular
cold rolled steel 1/8 thick 1 inch wide and I'm cutting them all to 6 inches long I'm gonna take
you long I'm gonna show you how I do it and it's not pretty it isn't fancy but this is the way I
roll okay here's the steel right here nothing fancy all I'm gonna do is just take the rough
edges off it and put nice little curve on the corners so it doesn't cut meaning let's get to it
okay let's go on to the next step okay on to the belt sander let's get dark
let's go over to the drill press okay so what we're gonna do here we're just
gonna pound a couple of holes through here nothing fancy you don't got to
be in the exact same spot but we're just gonna fire them right in there
okay I'll bring you back when I change the bed over and we're gonna countersink the
holes okay let's just fire in a couple of countersinks on here and way we go
there we go let's go over to a pipe - the pipe bender now okay I got you set up as good as I can
there to show you exactly what's going on and this is my my - bender that I've showed you before pipe
bender whatever kind of bender I'll put a link down below to show a better example of this in the
past but I've got two of these pieces here just I'll do both of them and of course you have to put
the pieces that are finished with the countersinks in facing this side and you'll see why and it's
just as easy as just bending this guy's this is so easy and we'll just take our long hair and
just wrap her all the way around and it'll just bounce right off the end here when she's done yeah
so there's one right there that's not too bad eh so you could see how that's going to to be
and we'll just do another one just to show you so I've got my my set here and that's
just roughly four inches from here to here and then the total length is six so I've got
roughly a two inch curl going around so we just bend another one just bounce off the end here
there she is here guys that's it that's as easy it is to do and you tell me if
that's not going to be heavy-duty well how did you like that I'll start off from the
beginning here when I picked up this morning I went to my Steel store and I picked up a
12-footer of this so this is a six footer and I used six feet already and I've done
a whole bunch of them here guys the whole time for me to do all this I've been out
here roughly 45 minutes to do the whole thing including filming and everything and
that's what I got here guys and all you wanna do is next time you see these I'm going to paint
them and you can see that I'm just gonna put screws in the wall for that hang them up like
this guys this will last a lifetime a lot better than you can possibly buy in the store these will
be heavy-duty now I did try different lengths I tried a 5-inch guys the 5-inch was actually
too small but I am going to go with it anyways I'm just going to keep this one I can use that
no problem and here's another one here another example so I did try a couple first just to make
sure time to figure out what kind of length I wanted on them and so far it's worked out great
so that's how easy it is to do the little metal bender here is just terrific and you know I like
using it so I figured by the time I'm finished this whole vid and everything I'll have an hour
into this and I have all these done the next time you see these they're going to be all painted and
they're going to be installed up at the camp so thanks for joining me here today I hope you
like this little bit of a working project and I think I'd like to see you know more people
on YouTube actually tackle some of this stuff because you know what if you had to go to the
store and buy something even comparable you're talking easy ten bucks apiece I've tried to look
for some half-decent hooks and guys I can't find nothing like I say it's a wing wing fest out there
going in the stores and I'm tired of wing wing so thanks for joining me here today come back
again if you haven't seen this channel before well you're welcome to subscribe cheers guys
