Default Hello from Florida

Hello all,
Checking in from Pensacola, Florida. I am retired military, currently working as a contract aviator. I have a long-standing interest in metal shaping; when I first retired from the military, my first job as a civilian was doing custom metal fab on the 66-77 Ford Bronco. I loved the work, but the appeal of returning to flying was hard to pass up. Anyway, I am still passionate about metal shaping and have attended Mark Gerisch's metal shaping course (Academy for the Art of Metal Shaping) up in Wisconsin (twice!). I am slowing building up my shop to be able to do more metal shaping, so any tool ideas/tips or workshop ideas are always welcome.
Thanks,
Marecl
