Excellent tutorial. Thanks Tony.
Two questions.
Firstly, I notice in your third to last picture that one edge is turned up more than the other, but in your second to last picture both edges appear to be the same. Do you turn the piece around and repeat the process so as to get both edges the same?
Secondly, in your last picture you show the finished piece in place. How do you bend it around into the right shape without losing the profile produced by the formers. Am I correct in thinking that you anneal it and bend it by stages around a former, annealing again as necessary? Do you then temper it in any way?
