John,
OOPS! Sheet metal conjures up images of formed aluminum in my old mind....
So, working with the bandsaw, and some hi rpm tools, i.e. die grinders, for reducing
to final shape is the best course. After they're to shape, you'll need
files, and sandpaper to remove ALL tool marks, cut marks, etc., from EVERY edge,
as these are called notches. During flight, normal working stresses may induce
crack propagation from one of these sites.
Have fun with this...
