Panels look great. What gauge metal are you using to create the panels?

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
wat i usually do to straighten tube is clamp one end in the vice hold the other end in some visegrips and give it a few good yanks
as long as you support the line after youre done its straight as an arrow after that , just need to cut the ends off

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Hey 67cheby:
What gauge sheet are you using for the interior bed? When you bead roll, does it change the part dimensions? Do you have to bead roll and then cut the part to the proper dimensions after or can you bead roll after it cut? |
