Default Sheet metal fab thread?

The other day I bought an English Wheel. A tool I've been dying to have for YEARS!

Just wondering if there are others who are into this end of the auto-fab section.

If so post up some stuff!

My first attempt since highschool.
Cut a random piece of sheet. Beat it with some mallets. Wheeled it.

Results


It's covered in oil but it is really smooth.

E-Wheel works quite nicely.

im also highly interested in this. ive seen these at harbor freight but had no idea how to use it or what its capable of. i know there have been quite a few instance while doing body work that i wish i had a nice curved piece of sheet metal to fill in a section.
