[bobnoffs]

hi all,
getting ready to make a fuel tank. i have the material and a very good tig welder . now i need a shop that has a brake that can handle 14 ga aluminum.i expect that i can find one by calling around but i wanted to try here,
maybe someone has a shop they can recommend.

Bob---Marvin Homsley can, but he's in Arkansas I think. Certainly some one in WI can. Check around OSH at the truck manufacturing plants.

so before i made phone calls i stopped by a friend's sheet metal shop he uses in the heating business. in the past few years he has started fabricating out of aluminum. had 4 brakes, one is a 6' mittler complete with all sizes of radiussed fingers! 40 yrs bending sheet metal and now he is an accomplished aluminum fabricator, how can i be so lucky. anyway..........my search for a fabricator is over and it is a friend 10 miles away.
