John Glover has done a tremendous job of describing and illustrating techniques refined and perfected over a lifetime of unparalleled metal shaping successes in The Practical Sheet Metal Worker.
The book is divided into sections that include working the edges of metal parts, like beading, forming a wire edge and turning a flange. There is also a wealth of information on shrinking, tucking and heat shrinking. A section on making louvers is particularly helpful. The 'finishing touches' described in the book can enhance any metal shaping project, from basic to very advanced. Happily, John covers metal fabrication details and fine points in true English form - with excellent clarity and exquisite attention to detail.
Antique race cars, motorcycle gas tanks, aircraft parts and many other projects are all covered. Readers will enjoy John's perspective and personal touch along with intriguing information from days gone by. It’s full of valuable information about the hand forming of metal parts used in restoration, prototype, race and custom cars.

These metal formers are great for making smooth radius bends in sheet metal without cutting, heating or hammering the material. Reproduce just about anything with a curved edge. Mount on a workbench, in a vise or on a stand.
Use the shrinker to contract metal and to make inside curves. Use the stretcher to expand the metal for outside curves.
Cast iron body with hardened tool steel jaws for exceptional durability and long life. Each 12-lb. unit comes completely assembled and ready to use.

Simple and quick to use!
Just drill a pilot hold for the draw bolt, then apply the tool and tighten the bolt for a smooth, flared hole in one easy step;
Punch hole only by removing female flare ring and use punch and die;
Easily mounts into Mittler Brothers bench presses;
Features
Automotive (standard) punch and flare tools are designed to punch the required hole size and follow with a 45-degree radius angle (leg length of ¼") in metal thickness of .040” to .065” aluminum and mild steel.
The total clearance after the punch/flare is made will be 1/8” larger than the punch size. (e.g. 1” OD punch will enlarge to 1-1/8” OD after punch/flare.)
Punch to die clearance is 0.012”
Anti friction bearings are included.
ONE SIZE: 1" punch and flare tool
