Baby Airstream

Postby dragginthru » Fri Sep 01, 2023 12:10 pm

Was ambitious a few years back. Ordered a bunch of aluminum and bought 3 vintage hehr windows off ebay. Heres what happened next. About to redo the inside after a few years of use for better flow.

Damn! You guys have some mad skills!

Awesome job. Looks like you spent a little time on an English roller or did you have some kind of form for the curved pieces?. :thumbsup:

^ There's an English wheel in the background of the pic of her using the planishing hammer. Nice shop. Awesome skills!
