Awesome Pipe

When you want to cover the end of a metal pipe, you typically attach a cap and solder it in place. This brief factory video shows how a machine closes the end of a copper pipe by tapering and flattening the metal in one smooth motion. Enjoyed that? We found many more satisfying videos from the same Chinese metal fabrication shop on Instagram.

We have a hard enough time putting together an off-the-shelf model. Top One Maker is an overachiever and builds all of his models from scratch. In this video, he shows how he took some grey PVC pipe, heated it, and cut and assembled the pieces to form the body and chassis of a remote-controlled Mercedes-Benz AMG G 63 SUV.
