Learning Metal Spinning! Making Hubcaps for Wheels - DIY

7 months ago

In this video I'm going to make some aluminium hubcaps for scooter wheels with the help of metal spinning. I've used this technique just once before on the kitchen scale restoration. Back then it worked, but the surface finishes were very rough and I had to do a lot of sanding. Therefore I decided to dive in deeper and find out were the issues are coming from and improve my setup and technique.

I hope you like my work and the video.
