this should work! if it does, there should be an animated .gif included in this post.
this is a test I had starting working on. The final piece is to be a visor for a helmet,specifically a type called a sallet. I liked the way the profile came out but was unhappy with the contours on most of the other views. This was made from a piece of cold rolled 18 ga steel. I used a dishing form and a few stakes to get the shape, the eyeslot was rough cut with an angle grinder, then chiseled a but and then filed to get the round corners a bit neater. On the final, I will actually build the helmet top first then take a pattern off of that to ensure the visor fits well.

I have been doing cone out of sheet metal and today I was wondering if there was an easier way to do than my way wichh is to trace it on metal and then roll it to shape and spot weld it in place. Do you guys or lady out there have any better way or easier way to do it.

Hello!
Blacksmith and sheetmetal worker here! several questions:
First off, I am wondering whether it is possible to raise sheets of mokume gane/pattern laminated metals in general. Should it be done hot?
