Yeah the Driftwood guy uses about 2.25mm outer and 2mm inner sides but the whole vacuum pump technique is beyond my skill/tool level. I've see about 4 different methods across the web making your last comment most relevant and thanks very much for the comment.

If I can find some scrap I'll try bending both sides at once as it seems most methods aren't dependent on perfectly bent sides to begin with.
