Thing like floorpan where you do alot of wide, deap beads (3/8" or even 1/2") you will use so much material for those that you will end up warpetch for sure.

For those you need to prestretch with ewheel. Deeper you do, or numbers of beads in same sheet, more you need to prestrech it.

Bead art like Jordan's, the bead is low and narrow so use of material is minimum.
He use so calld flame die that is two dies on different line pressing sheet up and down next to each other. On floor beads you are pushing one die in the other and streching is much greater .

Of course keeping sheet flat is good when doing flat pieces like floorpans.
