—1.. (or 2) 22gauge sheet metal 12”x24” (I get them at Ace Hardware about $14 each)
—2 cans of spray paint, I really like the Rustoleum 2X (don’t get any metallic at first!) One red, and one Black.

I know this is a lot to get… but You are going to need all of it to play along
with what I am painting. Yes, you can buy different stuff and just make it
work for you and follow along your own way.. perfectly fine. It is just that
this stuff is very cool, and very workable!
