3/4" max and then I reduced it to 1/2' ish.
The last 'angle flair' I made, if I could not create the pressure to get any S/S, I would start shallow and then move in on the same position deeper.
That was not an issue this time around.I'm using surplus steel so the actual metal is probably the difference there. This time tearing was more of an issue but I think the edge S/S are not good enough in general. I've tried to shrink way in away from the edge on other panels and the 'exoskeleton' idea using the beam clamps might work good enough for that too.
Did a rear dogleg better without a shrinker/stretcher set.

This is 16 gauge steel
I thought I was done with stretching/shrinking for a while but I got another opportunity to get more experience. This is 16 gauge.
