Trevor, I will make a donation. Quick question, intend to teach myself how to do metal work and welding. Although I live in Canada, where do you think the best place is to source out hand tools? Many thanks
it takes more time, but to keep the bends on the straight runs tighter, I add clamps and clamp blocks holding the steel tight to the form near the edge (because your straight runs have a larger corner radius than the round corners do). It takes more time but you will get a uniform bend radius. Plus, if any part of the bended lip will be hidden you can cut/notch into the bended lip area allowing the metal to hammer easier…then just do some spot welds or stitch welds.
Great looking replacement panels. True craftsman sheetmetal fabricator. I've done this sort of work my whole life in aviation for Lockheed, McDonnell, & Boeing. You would of fit right in, actually better than most, not all, than I've seen, and worked with in my field.
