Starting with aluminum
Hey guys I've been playing around with steel forming 16g and got a big sheet of 16g 6061 from work. Now I have a few questions because I don't have a torch set up.
Is annealing necessary or is it just to make the workability Easier or am I running the risk of work hardening the material to the point of failure.
Also on the topic of annealing I've seen most people use 3000 series aluminum for working with how's 6061 compare as a product for doing forming? I have great ease of access to 6061 that's why I ask.
