What tools are needed?How to shape the parts? What gauge has the best combination of easiest to work with and strongest/sturdiest?Please provide a link to any plans if possible and/or sites explaining the proper way to work sheetmetal.
do you have the remote thing for the alarm.try locking and unlocking the door through the outside with the key.it would happend to my jeep cherokee.i didn't have the remote.but all i had to do was close the door, and lock and unlock it with the key throught the outside.lol it sucked but it would shut up and the truck would turn on sooo try that
and now you know why I HATE car alarms. the only thing they are good for is annoying or stranding the owner. you're gonna have to take it to the dealer and have them remove it and properly repair the wiring. I have bought 2 cars with alarms on them and have removed both of them for this very reason.
if you reduce to 1/2 from 1 you have basically cut your water supply in half, which means you will have less water. CVPC is cheap and easy and handles both hot and cold water. The Original plumber use 1 so why not just replace the metal pipe with 1 CPVC? over time metal pipe will rust from the inside out and you'll go to change a fitting and the threaded part will break and then you'll be without water till its repaired. Thats why its not used anymore.
Check out the link below for methods of tinsmithing. It offers great explanations of the tools, how to use them, and has details of a couple of projects. Even if you were to use galvanized steel or copper, or any other type of sheet metal, the process is about the same (there are a few differences for sealing/soldering that should be asked about when purchasing material) I would use a thin sheet metal, 24 or 26 gauge. This should be easy to work and hold up well enough to pour water.
