Thanks for the warm welcomes.
I’m still looking around the site.
I have 0 metal shaping experience, other than some sheet metal classes back in high school many years ago.
Is there a thread that covers tools to get when starting?
I have some roofing snips, drills grinders and other general fabrication tools but not a lot of stuff that is explicitly for sheet metal.
I was planing on getting a box and pan brake as there are a lot of folded edges in the GT40 chassis. There are also a few other areas that will challenge me but I think I can get there.
I’m guessing I probably need to get a bead roller and some dies, a shrinker/stretcher, some dimple dies for pressing holes.
I have a hand held spot welded that will need some work to get it up to scratch. It needs some new electrodes. After that I am not entirely sure what else.
Any directions on where to head for information or places to purchase other than Hare and Forbes in Oz?
