What I've been doing so far is using an IR propane burner, with its obvious limitations. As far as what part can I do; my dad was an electrical contracter, and I spent most of my summers in high school doing commercial wiring along with also working with some HVAC equipment, so that part shouldn't be a problem. My next door neighbor has a mig welder, and while I don't make the prettiest welds in the world, the metal stays together.
What I don't have is a brake to bend the metal with properly, and I could pick up some air shears to cut it with. I was hoping to find something perhaps as a kit- or maybe find someone who was good at and knew how to make the panels, and then I could buy and install the electrical myself. That might help keep the cost down?
