Time to use my economy bead roller to add some nice touches to the jeep body. I roll some beads for stiffness (and to be fancy, lets be honest), and then i roll the edges of the fenders. Well, not super well, I don't have fancy dies for that. I made up for that fact in the usual way, by using hammers. The nice rounded edge looks much nicer than a straight cut, and means i can grab around the fender without my fingers getting sliced off by jaggedy, razor sharp mild steel. Not fun. I do plan to paint it red, however, so the blood won't show up. #planning
