David, I have two projects I'm working on. The first is an entertainment center designed after the arts and crafts style--only in steel. I am planning to have three beads on each style, a 1 1/2 X 3 X 14ga rect. tube. The plan so far is bead a piece of 18-20ga cold roll sheet, then capture it in a 1 X 1 X 1/8 angle frame, then apply the frame/beaded piece to the styles. Just as KP predicted the sheet stock rolls in two dimensions....looking for effective means to prestrech/postform with my tools on hand. The other project is a demilune table with forge steel legs(1 1/2 in tapering to 1/2 in square). The hard part is draping a piece of 24 oz copper over an MDF top and make look like a smooth table cloth. By the way I never take on really hard projects.
Is everything clear as mud?
