I`m gonna try to bend a cutaway.The question is do I bend it to the main shape and then thin the horn area down to its final thickness and try to bend this part again to the cutaway shape.Or should I try to thin the horn area down before bending the main shape and then bend again to the cutaway shape.If I sound confused it`s because I am.
