bullet train, engine cowls...
There is a U-tube video of a Japanese master smith forming the heavy sheet metal noses for the bullet trains.
It shows a bit of forming, fitting to bucks, talks about the time it takes.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZNFs...e_gdata_player |

Did you notice the Eckold Craftformer in the background? Wonder what they use that for.

I saw another video about this shop, and the Eckolds were used to form the angle profile ribs for the skeleton structure that the skins attatch to, i'll see if I can find the video again.
Cheers,
