Folks... Allow me to introduce to you...
The ALIKAT SUPERLITE HOTROD BOMBER
So recently my attention was drawn to some of the insane bead rolling artwork of, in particular Jamey Jordan.I was so impressed that I jumped in with both feet and added a few new toys to the already cramped Alikat workshop. I got myself an electric bead roller, and a 30 tonne shop press. I invested in quite a bit of tooling, punches, dimple dies and metal forming dies.
Here you can see a WW2 Bomber seat, and how that has been the influence for this Hot Rod seat that someone else has made
Bead rolling a quilted effect into a super light weight, 1.2mm aluminium sheet
Punched dimple holes around the outside
Solid riveted strip on the front.
