Hi Guys (Newbie here again)
Need help BIG TIME with this one guys.
I'm pretty handy with all kinds of tools, but not that much experience with SHEET METAL FABICATION.
NEED INFO PLEASE ON 'HOW 2 '
How do I make an adjustable rectangle s/metal box 6'high x 16'long that will fit into an areas of: 4'high x 14'long ?
I know how to cut and bend the sheet metal.
However, what I don't know how to do is:
Make a collapeable rectangle box that will fit into the area and then open up to: 6 x 16in.
I need to see/look at seams/joints that will do that and then I can tack weld the joints in place. GOD WILLING.
Can any you great guys out there in sheet metal land give a guy some tips or ideas please.
THANK YOU GUYS
GOD BLESS YOU ALL

How about a sketch?
Hi Dad
Sorry my good man, but I don't know how to post a drawing of the collapsiable rectangluar box.
Maybe I can better explain it.
I have an openning that is just so wide and so high. Behind that openning is a LARGER SPACE I can use (its BIGGER then the orignial openning)
So, if I can make that rectangluar box to fit through the openning and then open that rectangluar box BIGGER ~ well than I've (we) have accomplished my goal. GOD willing.
I do hope I better explained it.
Orginal opening is: 4x16x10deep.
Thanks Again Dad for taken interest in my protect.
GOD BLESS YOU GUYS
