Planishing (from the Latin planus, "flat") is a metalworking technique that involves finishing the surface by finely shaping and smoothing sheet metal.
A special hammer with faces shaped to allow for correction of locally stretched sheet metal. When shrinking metal, the panel is beaten into the recesses of the grid, which help stretching.
Example of technique
: Over shrinking causes the metal to be held under tension and may be mistaken for stretched metal. ... Hammer blows should be directed around the outside of the heated spot pulling the metal towards the center
.
The process of planishing uses many light blows to smooth metal which has already been formed by some other means. So always keep in mind when using a planishing hammer, the part you are making is first hammered out, roughed, or blocked out close to its general shape.
