Is there anyone making these for the Zenith Cruzer and selling them? Or are they really not that difficult to make. This is an area I am assuming that you want to make certain the strength is there in the metal, and the flanging really makes the piece stronger. Or... am I being overly cautious? :)

The flanging dies were cut out on a lathe and are made from oak or from nylon.

What did you use for the die to make the flanges?
