There will not be a direct follow up to this video. But there will be more videos from me soon. These fenders are long finished already. In fact they were both finished before the video was made.

I am a power hammer guy so I use thumbnail shrink for just about everything. If I did not have that option i would have built the panel with more stretch then shrink. I still would have to shrink the edges and it would have been with stump shrinking and with crushing the wrinkled edges created from blocking up the stretch over a bag or hardwood. Non of this would have been fun with 18g steel though
