Paul, these are the shroud things i mentioned the other night, cant remember in what thread though
5mm plate, the prototype was welded from pieces, with tube in the corners for a bit of a radius.
I made mine in one piece (bar the collar) pressed with flat bottom tooling in a baggy v. creating a reasonable radius, folded so there was a gap where the corners meet, about 5mm, then just weld it up on a low heat downhill, bridging the gap. Sand off and you have a roughly a 15mm rad
They looked nice until they were painted yellow, in a rush, by the worst painter we have
