Practice

                               Using the Guillotine to cut the aluminium sheet, here we are using 
                               the 1mm 5005 aluminium 


                               Once we got the desirable size, use the mark pen to roughly draw 
                               the shape of your model 
                              
                               THINK CAREFULLY if you don't want to waste your material!




                                          Cut off the irrelevant area by using this large shear




                               Use the aviation snip to modify the edge. Here are two types of
                               snips which are right-hand and left-hand, it is very important to
                               choose the right type which suits the curve you want




                               Use the slip rollers to curve the sheet as much as possible, the 
                               curve should be covered around the body of the model in order
                               to avoid a gap between your model and aluminium sheet 




Check the sheet with your model to see which area need to be modified




Use the T-Dolly to bend the edge
JUST BE PATIENT! 



The English Wheels can make the metal thinner and wide, it also smooths the skin
