Dave, there are some good Kirkham videos on YouTube that show great metal forming skills. The Kirkhams are the ones that built my bronze bodied Cobra. What these guys do with a flat piece of metal is amazing.

Way cool Dave! Are folks down in Texas smaller than us Yankees? I don’t know how I’d fit my keester in them tiny cavities you got. Oh well, you took art in HS, so who am I to second guess?!

Tim, can you share a couple pics of that Cobra? I'd love to see them and I'm sure that Dave wouldn't mind seeing it as well.
