I had a couple hours yesterday afternoon & a couple more this afternoon, so I thought I'd get organized for the upcoming "Z" firewall build. I've got some sheet metal tools that have been under the bench for a good long while now. So, I chopped up an old attachment I had for my first track loader that was just collecting dust in the corner. It had some slip tubes on it (like a receiver for the hitch). I used some angle iron I had in the shed and made this deal up. I put it on an outside corner of the shop so I'd have plenty of workin' room.

I bought a stretcher/shrinker at a car show a couple years ago. No mount so it hasn't been used yet.
Harbor Freight Planishing hammer. Might call it new old stock. I've had it for a long time too, but never used it.
I've used the bead roller a couple times. Clamped it in the band saw when I DID use it.
I'm wondering about a wing (table top) on each side of the bead roller to help feed the stock through? or maybe it would just get in the way? Any thoughts?
I still plan to make an attachment to hold the bench vise, and one for a small welding table. I'm gettin' tired of saw horses.........
ops:
that's what I've been up to this weekend.
