In this 4 Day Intensive Fender shaping and Repair Class taught by professional Metal Shaper Pat Brubaker you will learn the methods involved in removing damage, large dents, fixing cracks and tears, patterning, shaping new sections of a fender, fitting and welding, straightening and finishing the weld seam. When we make whole panels in the classes we can put a weld seam exactly where we want to. But when building a patch or large section 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 patches and large section replacement.
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
