I bought it at HF &#8211; I think it was $5. Although I did use the visit to HF to pick up a 230v spot welder for the rest of the sill repair. (I always wanted one and it&#8217;s Fathers Day weekend&#8230;thks kids). That&#8217;s one of the reasons I made the parts. I would rather throw my money to tools than to parts.<\/p>\n<p>This is the bending down of the flange in about 8&#8243; increments. This is necessary on the bottom where you have the 20* twist, but I also used it on the top to ensure my flange was uniform in size and it also helped straighten out the piece.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/namgar.com\/NAMGAR2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/PBP_IMG_2588_resized-1.jpg\" alt=\"Repairing the Outer Sills\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-43968\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Two pieces matched up to each other.

I started by taking pictures and measurements so I could use them as reference to align all the panels back again.
