I'm trying to get this cowl formed a little better and a friend wants me to tryand put some roll around the edges were it is close to the scoops. it will bealong a curve which will cause it to have to stretch too. he says he thinks Ican anneal the aluminum enough to form it with a hammer on a block of wood. I'musing .025" 2024T3 which is thin and pretty hard. what are the chances I couldget it soft enough to maybe work about a 45 degree bend along a curved edgeon it without cracking?
