The largest coldformer we have here is a National, the dies for forming the rollers are about 80lbs each and runs 5 stations. For comparison the smaller coldformer dies weigh about 5lbs.

I'll post a pic of part progressions here shortly. The machines basically take a small coin of steel, jam a punch into the steel which jams into the die and makes all the formations by pressure alone. The national is a loud mother fucker when it's running.

Valve lifter line is a lot of milling hardened steel, turning, grinding with abrasive wheels, small tolerance honing, special form milling, as well as front/back chamfering on multiple through holes.
Nice. American Manufacturing!!

Here's a pic of the machine (dude in blue tooling up for next job), and some progression parts. The third station literally smashes that little coin into that whole form, outer diameter as well as inner diameters on top and bottom. Pretty fucking crazy shit.

You bought used jeans online? What site is that from? It has taken me two years of wearing my jeans to get many of those used looking features.

At first, I thought this was directed at 1MOREMOD and his reference to "choking his chicken". I was terrified. I was glad to have been wrong.
