Interesting to hear that from someone with a big collection of sheetmetal
books.  Dyer is the *only* sheetmetal book I have [1] and I've found it
very handy indeed.

I guess that means, terry, that you should look for a copy.

  Publisher:

  Dyer, Herbert J., How to Work Sheet Metal 

  Subtitled "A practical man's description of metal working practice
  'straight from the bench'", 1951 (reprinted 1958, 1963, 1969, 1972)
  1972 ed. was UK45p and had no ISBN.

[1] Only a little in there about raising/repousse, though.  I borrowed
some books and took a workshop with Chris Ray to get started on that.
