I wasn't able to get into the tutorial on Rich's method of making an entry pipe. I found that it's pretty easy to find an old body and fender peck hammer, or head at yard sales. I took one,and shortened the beak to the diameter I wanted, and rounded, and polished the end. I shortened the handle up so it gave me something to hang on to, and drive it with a dead blow hammer.
What thickness of sheet metal was used on this project?
