Default Thanks John

Yea, there is a lot of stuff out there for sure. ALready have an order in for a random orbital buffer too!

I'm actually interested in shaping some of the parts on my own for several reasons:
1- I would like to learn it
2- The price for the pre done sections of aluminum are very high from any airstream place, and the main body pieces I need are the belly, so I don't have to make them perfect perfect.
3- I would like to make a few custom parts, add-on plates, designs and such that can be polished up. I assume most all of the aluminum people shape can be given a mirror shine??
This is why I'm looking to learn a bit about annealing aluminum and working basic shapes out of it.
Cheers!
Eric
