Default Thanks for the metal shaping tips

Just a thanks for this forum and the very helpful members. Every now and then I use what little I have learned on an unexpected project. I recently bought an old car and the bottom of the fuel tank had 11 little pin holes that I poked out with an ice pick. Looked like someone had drilled them. Anyway, in order to salvage the tank I decided to cut out the bad area instead of welding up the pin holes. Used my Summit Racing bead roller to put in the beads on the 18 ga. patch. Came out pretty nice for the bottom of a tank no one will ever see(but me).
