Panel Beating techniques?

Post by cahillp3 »

Any Panel beaters here that can share their knowledge? Im about to attempt to Take out the dents in a standart Brass tank and im worried about the dents in the middle of the tank (not the caps).
What id love to know is what tools would be best to use for this small panel beating work?

Thanks,
Paul

Check out through the search, lots of posts on this subject. Try to avoid the commpressed air technique it can have explosive effects. Take the ends off and use a scaffold tube as a former and a rubber malet worked well.
Life is what you make it, and what you make could change your life.
