Curving Plates

Curving a piece of flat steel without access to a heavy duty power roller can be challenging. Here we made many cuts on the back side (unseen) to facilitate rolling the radius. These cuts will also keep the piece flexible which will make it conform easier to the wood door that it will be attached to. Laurie is welding close the cuts on the edges which are visible. It then gets sanded and finished with a dark patina and wax. Pictures of the finished project to come....
