So I just saw a thread where roots works made his own sheet metal for his 6.. Does anyone have templates for this? I would love to make a set. Drawings would be great.. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is the link to Root Werks (Dan Root) post. He describes making the 6 tin at post #15.

Does anyone keep in touch with Dan? Maybe he can provide some form of the templates he made.

Unless Ben has other ideas, I have him covered with some oem tin.

I made my own, just banged, cut and welded out the sides from the 6 tin, I married 4 and 6 tin for the fly side and I bent a piece of channel and welded in a flat for the front.

I can sell the front as I was just given a real 6 front tin piece.
