4 Day Intensive Patch Panel Development Metal Shaping Class February 25,26,27, and 28th

Regular price $800.00 $0.00 Unit price per

CLASS DATE: FEBRURARY 25, 26 , 27, AND 28th

In this 4 Day Intensive Patch Panel Class taught by professional Metal Shaper Pat Brubaker you will learn the methods involved in removing, patterning, forming, matching and welding the patch to a panel. When we make whole panels in the classes we can put a weld seam exactly where we want to. But when building a patch panel some times we don't have as many choices for where the weld seam should be so we will go over the how and why of patch panels.

As the class runs we will cover:
Pattern and layout work
Reading the pattern and building a plan
Shrinking and stretching (what to do, when and how much)
Hand tools
Making small tools for details and features
Uses of the English wheel
Details and body lines
Turning and finishing the edges
Fitting and welding
final straightening and metal finishing

The Class topic will be covered the first 3 days and the 4th day we will focus on individualized skill building
