Default Another Minnesotan Finds allmetalshaping.com

My name is ken bogren. I was referred here by rouye56wingnut on the H.A.M.B. forum when I asked about the fall MN metal shaping event.

I currently own a 1963 Falcon convertible and a 61 F100, they look ok on the outside, the Falcon could probably use use some love on the underbody, but we drive that car quite a lot when it's not raining.

I've seen any number of cars I'd like to own that need skills I don't yet have, so I'm hoping to pick up some advice and a few new skills here.

Hi Ken, welcome to the site. If you have the will to learn and put a little time in you don't need to have large machines and invest thousands to get started.

Thanks for the warm welcome folks. I've been roaming around the site and it sure is a wealth of information.

Dan: I have family in southeastern MN so I get fairly close to your place from time to time. Looking at the photos from the spring event was pretty informative, looks like everyone had a great time.
