Aluminum scratched easily needed plastic coating.
Petals intersected - more tolerance needed.
Detched petal-to-petal tabs allowed more tolerance + more accurate bends.
Final test.
“Ears� overlapping bend lines would be bent - must not overlap.
Tabs were difficult to bend accurately.
Very tight/difficult fit on structure with attached petal-to-structure tabs.
Newer bending machine needed.
All tabs detached - multiple flowers fit on structure easily.
