I was watching a video this morning from 6061.com. He always does quality work, but the most recent video showed him building a manifold of some sort using common tools and homemade jigs that us scratchbuilders would use to form parts. I enjoyed it so much I wanted to share it. Aside from a mill he used at the end the flatten the flanges on the manifold, he didn’t use anything I didn’t have in my primitive shop. Good stuff.
