Pattern making video I did with Eastwood
Check out the video I did recently with Eastwood about the basics of making a paper pattern when shaping sheet metal. It features the Handmade fenders I just did. Making an acurate paper pattern of the original part, the 'Buck' or the opposing part you need to create is the first step to shapping an accurate panel. PLEASE SHARE! and check out my shop page for more...

Thanx for the link. Great tip on the carpenters pencil. Will be using that soon.. Easy to understand video, well done. Is there a follow up especially on the shrinking of the radiused sections or is it simply heat/shrink as you go?

I am a power hammer guy so I use thumbnail shrink for just about everything. If I did not have that option i would have built the panel with more stretch then shrink. I still would have to shrink the edges and it would have been with stump shrinking and with crushing the wrinkled edges created from blocking up the stretch over a bag or hardwood. Non of this would have been fun with 18g steel though

great item thanks for sharing , the best way to make a panel copy
for the radius sweeps on the corners i would have used strips of metal hammered on the out side edge untill they formed the correct curve to the panel then marked on the pattern the hight to use them. i fined the redius gauges are a bit short on longer sweeps . hope this makes sence look forward to seeing more.

Mike, thanks for sharing all that you have and hopefully do in the future.
While watching the Eastwood paper pattern video, I wasn't sure why you were taking such pains to mark the beginning of the curve multiple times. This was an eye opener for me, count me among those who weren't previously aware of light lines. Your explanation preceding it makes perfect sense.
