firstly the part 1 and 2 was not made from copper pipe, it was sheet as always otherwise there wouldnt have been screen used templates floating around the net! 
righty for a part 4...
24 ga copper and brass will be suited. brass for finger progs also.
for the glove...try out magla/stanley gloves. they work a treat but are tough to get hold of. a guy on ebay has a pair of xl ones that need to be snapped up.
aviation (center cut) snips work the best. for sanding i use wet and dry sandpaper sometimes (if needed)
its the blades that are usually the problem for a part 4, steak knives grinded down can work but to get tham all the same shape can be hell.
pm me if you need any in depth help
