la bala Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Wasnt allowed in the workshop yesterday, mums orders . Had 4 hours on project today and got a bit done. As i dont have a folder, i tacked a piece of angle to each fold line and with a thin cutting wheel in grinder cut half way through. The bits i didnt need i cut out. Once all the folds were scored the 3mm plate folded easily. Once folded a few 25mm tacks brought everything into shape, i will seam weld it later. I even got a couple of legs on, i cant put the back ones on yet as there is a reason. Well by now its obvious what its going to be, and i hope any interested parties will maybe have a go. Sorry about carp pics, my phone is nearly as old as me. . More to follow. Some more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
