Default sheet metal question

Hi I am hoping you gentlemen won't mind answering a newbie question. I
want to put a wire rim on a bucket and also do the bottom seam. I am
looking for sheet metal information on the web or on e-bay if there is
anything that you could recommend it would be much appreciated. Also
would this be the proper tool to perform the operations, harbour
freight item # 41081-ovga? Thank you.

Yes, HF 41081 will work, as long as the sheet metal isn't too thick.
Maybe 20 ga. or thinner.

larbooks.com and centaur forge have some old reprinted books on the
subject.
