Hi Jim,
I am not sure where to place a "how to" photo series. If you would click this http://allshops.org/cgi-bin/community/click.cgi?id=117116836611723&zone=1&1172594640
You will come to an album I have in the Metalshapers site.It has some shaping hints.Looking further in this site you will find albums devoted to illustrating shrinking and stretching methods, and machines to shape, form and planish sheet metal. I personally utilize objects found for a tool source, but venture further from the cave as need presents itself.
If the hyperlink is nonfunctional just google metalshapers.
I hope this is helpful. The finish on Professor Drago is wire brushed and raw. I need to apply some kind of protecting coating. Any hints?
