    Had the need to form flanges on curved profile light gauge sheet metal recently, so made up this handy little tool to do the job, Using materials I had to hand, - see assembly and demo on the YouTube video below:-

    I very much like your curved edge flanging tool. I've already got a bead roller, tipping dies, and a shrinker stretcher I use for the same purpose which work very nicely for me. If I didn't already have those in the shop, I would be making one based on your design. Will keep this in mind for our local HS Electric Vehicle Race Team as this would be rather easy for them to use and certainly much nicer on their very thin budget. Great idea, and well worth the effort and cost to make. Nicely done!
