English wheel enthusiasts, look here
I'm interested in fabricating some bicycle fenders (mudguards to you
Brits). Picture a motorcycle fender, but with a much steeper transverse curve. Looking for suggestions on how to get the right curves, with a beaded or folded edge. I have learned a bit about English wheels, but it feasible to roll the strip by pushing it into the appropiate negative form? One difficulty with the English wheel would be that the ones I have seen would not allow a curve of 180 degree arc. -- Ted Bennett Portland OR |
