Sheet Metal

How do you cut and bend sheet metal?
How do you cut and bend sheet metal? Can you give me a website or some info?
it depends on the application and end tolerances
at home I make do with snips, jig saw, a vice and hammer
when it comes to a quarter inch thick, well!
but often I need to go to a shop with proper shearing and bending tools
how thick sheet metal and what metal?
