Here's the complement or tools I used to block the body. Some were purchased and other home made. The assortment of hoses were used for the valleys and creases in the body. There are no flat areas on the entire body, only curves. The two rolls are self adhesive sandpaper. I used both 220 and 320 grits. The curved block next to the wooden paint stick was my invention to sand the fender tops and valleys. It's made from 2 pieces of thin brass sheet with a piece of 3/4" rubber foam in between. The concave surface is for sanding the fender tops and then it gets turned over placing the convex part against the fender valley. The sand paper used is the self-adhesive variety.
