Hello from Alaska. Just got in my proshaper mallet set and shrinking disc combo. I considered making my own tucking mallet. I will tell you your pictures and videos dont do it justice. It is huge. Love the videos, Patrick.

For over 35 + years I’ve followed ( books &videos) Ron Fournier, Kent White, Ron Covell, John Glover, and most recently William Longyards book on the English Wheel… where I learned of some guy named Wray Schelin? Yet none of them changed the way I thought/looked or shaped metal , like Wray has! After following Wrays on his You Tube videos , he said one thing ( on one of his videos) that none of the others ever said or emphasized that is probably the simplest , yet most prolific statements in shaping! “Any panel can be made with stretching alone “! Thank Wray for all that you do 👍

Stretching or shrinking are both easy and can be done with simple methods and inexpensive tools. I learned that from observing what the Italian coachbuilders did. They made more hand built cars, made the best designs, and their coachwork/designs have proven over time to be the most desired and valued.

Hi Laurie, actually it is more of the magic of the wireform, and using heat as a shaping tool. This panel was made by students with little or no experience. As I have said many times techniques are way more important than tools. Most people give up because they perceive the tools as absolutely needed before they can proceed.

6:52 Bristol had (mostly) full surface hammer forms for many of their models. There’s a sad photo of all of them stood next to each other in a gloomy warehouse after they went bankrupt for the last time. The doors were not full surface, if I remember correctly, only simple curved panel, like a Jag XJS. Maybe you should do another buck and hammer form video explaining what bucks can be used for what, with pictures of the cobra bucks and such, ultimate buck video.
Good Vid Wray, but what is the yellow masking tape over the wire for?

Wire forms don't photograph well so you have to put masking tape on them to see them. The masking tape also protects the panels from being scratched.

For aluminum car bodies I use .063" 3003. For steel car bodies I use .040" steel. Both have excellent dent resistance.

Hi Toby, experiment on a small scale. Make a wireform of a motorcycle tank. Use 1/4" hot roll. Once you make a few witeforms you will learn how easy and rewarding it is. Look at the videos at my KZitem channel showing how I do full scale drawings and then turn them into wireforms.
