I cut the pedals with worn down discs on my angle grinder.
then used an overlapped sanding disc to shape each one as I bent it up.
the circles were made using a bowl, a big round coffe mug,
a tin of spagetti and a beaker

With no heat that's even more impressive.

Nice work, lost of high tech tools as well.
A good 'How To' lesson as well.
