I want someone who wants to play Hullk to show us how he can cast a 3mm stainless steel panel nearly 20 feet long with a brake and shear.:)

Or, he can use several brakes and, surely, he only needs one shear -- and he can take as long as he wants to cut it into shape of the Cybertruck or Pinewood Derby Car if he wants to simplify it.:B

I won’t expound on how silly the first statement seems, ok, I will. You are insinuating that the body panels, made of stainless (idk what grade, doesn’t matter though) are roughly 400% thicker than the average auto body panel (hood, fender, roof, etc skin)?
Not to mention you must be referencing very small manually operated sheet metal tools?

To the second part, yes my response you’re referencing was largely tongue in cheek in reference to the fact that there doesn’t appear to even be a single curved panel and not even any compound bends or breaks in the skin. I’m fully aware that a press like that is or will be used to form the structure of the car body.

How’s that 2% workin out these days? I’m not seein it, tbh.

Although I’ve heard drinkin the Koolaid helps with this, of which you have decidedly drank a lot of. Maybe not enough though….so keep it up. It may help, someday…
