Size:  60.7 KBThe front bumper bucks were made from 4" round stock, 2" round stock and filled in with 3/8" plate which was reinforced with iron. The blanks are 14 gauge cold roll which had to be heated with the rosebud to roll around the buck. I drilled three holes to line up and hold the steel piece from shifting. The slots for the horn and the blank were cut with the water jet. It take about 8 hrs to shape and metalfinish for plating. The original pattern was made from ash and was shaped from a photo.
