I recently purchased a shrinker/stretcher combo and a set of Cleco fasteners. I have already used the combo set to fab a patch panel for a TW fender. Today I was fitting a patch panel on the rear wheel lip opening so I used the Cleco pins. These tools are great, the s/s combo makes easy work of forming sheet metal and the Clecos hold the panels like nothing else. I've done it the hard way in the past but with these fasteners it makes quick and accurate work of holding a panel for fitting as well as welding. Both Eastwood and Auto Body Toolmart offer these and other cool tools to make working on vehicles much easier. I think a bead roller is next on my list. I took some progress shots but need a little work on my close ups I guess. Anyway you can get the idea of how the shrinker/stretcher makes patches.
