  1. Metal can only be Processed by Four Major Means: 

    English Wheel  Stretching  Bending  Shrinking
  2. Bending or Curving Shrinking or Contracting Metal A dependable strategy

    to curve metal is to use form bending. Metal sheeting in placed on a shaping gadget and bent as essential. By using force to force down on a metal sheet with a rim beneath will help to achieve the preferred shape. A well-known alternative is metal brake. Metal Brake’s highest actually reaches the angle up to 90 degrees. It includes the following ways:  Tucking Metal  Shrinker  Heat Shrinking An old age method is the tucking metal procedure which depends on pressure to change the shape using a tucking fork or spade hammer. A Shrinker is a instrument like a liver organ, managed by hands or feet. This tool has the teeth with a touching surface that holds the steel in the correct place. The heat shrinking process can be much more challenging as you work at high temperature. This procedure relies on heat to stretch the metal and shrinks on cooling down.
  3. Stretching Technique English wheel The stretcher procedure depends on a

    mechanical press to hold and steadily size the metal using flat surfaced jaws. A basic system is the hammer and dolly procedure. This is a simple procedure of striking the metal to reshape. Hitting the metal sheet flattens it to achieve the preferred form. This is much such as using anvil or hammer and dolly. The program utilizes a wheel technique to help shape the metal. The metal is held so that is can be rolled and flattened in the process.
