Greg, getting machines and start making stuff, exactly!

Yeah I 'might' have a $45 sheet of steel ready for the dumpster because it's so warped, and I 'might' have freaked out and went ballistic on the second one and put 15 holes in it with a hammer, and 'maybe' the 3rd one will work out. (seems like it will lay out fairly good, if I tack weld it from the inside out).

With persistence I will gain experience.

I've seen guys pre stretch with an english wheel. Seems to help but still not perfectly flat.

I didn't know you could repair it afterwords with a wheel.
