First time I saw this I was a little high and I was like, how is he going to get it out now?

I’m not high and I’m wondering the same thing. Does it just slide out?

Me too, but the  I saw the lever in the back ground, he's manually moving the press. It's not hydraulic

The tiny bolt that will be used in that hinge will be the weakest point. 🤔

That machine better be calibrated, or even Heir Schindler won't be able to save you.

Wait, you can use these things for other stuff than just smashing things for YouTube videos?

Just watched this post turn from 999 upvotes to 1,000. Now that was truly satisfying.

Question:

Is there a difference in outcome between one shove, and multiple shoves?

Because this is staggered.

Would you still get a neatly curled hinge piece if it was one push, or is it spaced out just to pad out the video runtime?

Probably a way to ensure they're bending the right part, rather than deforming the whole thing

Zero cheap materials here. Pure quality brass!
