Default Greetings from Portugal

Hello everyone!
My name is Leandro and I am from Portugal (which is actually a country by itself and not a Spanish city)!

I am a mechanical engineer and even though I have had to study the theory of elasticity and plasticity I don't know much about the fine art of metal shaping (at least without crazy expensive stamping dies and presses).

I intend to join the lot to learn more about handcrafting metal pieces, not just for hobby stuff, but also because I believe that hands-on guys know a thing or two that can be used to solve industrial production line's problems.

At the moment I can't really share any tip or trick for handcrafting a metal panel but if any of you guys need help with 3D modeling (to see how your project will look like even before buying the metal sheets) or to perform a structural analysis, please by all means, give me a shout out. If you want I can send you a link to my online 3D portfolio so that you can check my works.

Cheers,
