Make a few extra sets for us poor bastards who can't work metal! I'd be happy to pay for the time and effort :-)

This will be my first try at shaping these
It almost gets there just bending slightly
Will see how it goes when my Shriner shows up

So spent some time with the shrinker
and found what I wanted I could just
bend slightly on my knee

This is the mockup piece I did a while
back. Finally bought the new metal and
will clean things up

Leave the lip long so you can roll it around some rod for strength....


Looks great Bob!

Bob --- Find your local Snap-On dealer and buy an air driven BODY SAW -- it will do a far nicer job for you.

There are others -- and whatever you do - don't cheap out and buy the Blue-Point junk version (they have zero torque)
