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 final straightening and metal finishing Bring your own welding helmet if you have one, as well as hearing protection Materials Provided  Class Days are 12 hours 8a.m. to 8p.m. Lunch, Supper, and refreshments Provided
