Default first day testing

Hi

I had finally change to made first test to deep draw cobra nose. Soft alumin (1xxx series) was too weak but AISI304 (in pic there is 2,5*1,2m and 1mm AISI 304 sheet) was ok.

I didn't have time for fine tuning but I know now that I can made cobra bodies using material what break around/above 150Mpa (like 6/7xxx seris alumin have). I just need to chage final tools/dies parting lines are a bit different place than this test tool have...

I have some 2mm 5xxx seris alumin sheets so I will test those and send some pic ~next week.
