I am trying to find or make a forming block of sorts... To be used with a blocking hammer to stretch sheet metal to form my own panel repairs. I have seen huge 400mm squarechuncks of hardwood used or even leather sand bags. I was thinking of making a timber block one but have been told that I need to kiln dry the timber to stop it splitting and not only that where does one find a piece of timber 900mm high? I also do not know where to buy a sandbag. Has anyone made up some thing like this before or can tell me where to get a hold of one.
