Another Scuttle Question

I've got a job lot of steel sheet that's 1/32" thick (0.79mm or somewhere between 20 and 21 SWG). I don't have the book to hand so don't know what's suggested, but will it be any good to use as the skin of my scuttle. I started work on it yesterday, which is going well, and would like to be able to finish it without buying more materials.

Any help appreciated.


Chris.

That will be more than adequate, If you are skinning a framed scuttle, try bonding the plate rether than welding it to prevent distortion





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Cheers Mark. What would you suggest as an adhesive?
