    I have mixed feelings about working with sheet metal.

    I bought a dedicated circle saw that uses a dedicated metal blade. It seemed kinda over the top but it definitely makes a difference in working with sheetmetal.

    I did all this with the jigsaw. Not perfect, but good enough. Those giant rubber grommets hide alot of sins :laughing:

    Bending it is where I struggle. I'm cutting grooves on the backside and then bending with whatever I can make work.

    I understand supply and demand, but some of us got into these trucks later in their life. There are some items I wished were still available though.
