its all about making it up as you go along , standing back, aiming to impress the mot man, making it a good purposeful repair that is stronger and better than originally what was there .---which is pretty poor on most fords
you need tools like this metal folder ..that can probably be got off ebay for under £70
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/265198164010 ... SwYPpgyfHYmines the blue one below, other pics of it being used, will fold 2mm thick with ease ..don't going buying the fragile looking ones
note that folder only folds certain ways and you then have to improvise with other gizmos that you build to do the job - that's what you are seeing is those two box sections bolted together.
or use a vice to the same effect .
other than that you can spend thousands on pro equipment, once you start fabrication ..it may take over your life - you can get heavily into everything mechanical ..and it will change you ..for better or worse ..so be warned
ist picture is the finished panels ..sorry pics are jumble
