===Forming the circular part of the shroud===
 
I knew that one part of the shroud was going to be perfectly round, so I set it up with a bolt in the center and made it so it could be spun by hand against an end mill. This will make it easy to shape the circle, as well as cut the box section down to its proper thickness.
