For cutting the new patch, I made the initial cuts with an electric metal shearer. I made the edge bends using a piece of angle iron in my vise and formed the right curves with light hammering on a gently curved dolly....:eek: Yeah, you can go to town with that one!:LOL::LOL: I did some additional trimming with a pair of snips.
