I can see it coming. The Boddingtons wheeling machine. Drink till your liver is nigh on dead and get a free wheeling machine. Then these metals and alloys are not the easiest to work with as are they very malleable after processing? Annealing etc? Most of the models I have seen avoid compound curves unless they were present in the formed donor container. Got a very nice 2CV. An interesting hobby and a test to find the limits of possibility. Not done this myself. I was seduced by plastic card and ended up making equipment selling it to War Gamers. The demand for Elephant Tanks and such was quite lucrative for a while. A whole lot easy medium than recycling tins.
