Rusted holes in several places due to the padding behind it getting wet. Awkward shape in that it curves in several dimensions. |
Started by making a mould of the shape with body filler using masking tape to stop it sticking to the metal |
Cut the sheet metal and folded an edge on it then started to shape it with a shrinker/stretcher |
First of many trial fits |
Nearly there! |
Butt welded after cutting out the exact matching shape |
Fully welded ready for grinding smooth |
Ground flat and ready for lead loading |
Leaded and filed ready for primer |
