New Here

Bags · #1 03-29-2010, 10:05 PM

Hi all. I'm from just north of Philadelphia. I have always had a passing interest and admiration for metalsmiths. I'm here to learn, and possibly take on some personal projects to work on my skills. Among my toys are about 20 motorcycles, a 69 Z28 that I got in 1976 at age 16, 37 Chevy pickup (all original), a '37 Packard project in the family for 45 years, an Fj 40 landcruiser, a 68 Cuda tub (possible ss/ah long term project), and last but not least a Piper Archer. i'll try to look and learn.. I just built a new garage and this Fall I plan to begin putting together a nice metal shop based on what I'm learning here. Thanks in advance.

Yea. Jeff Bagley (hence the nickname). Thanks for the welcome Tim. I'm also on Advrider (bagspacked) and Garagejournal as bags.

I'm everywhere as tdoty

, but it's good to know who is who on the other forums since some folks change names or can't get the username they want.

Nicknames are fine, as long as that's how you want to be addressed

Look around, ask questions and don't be afraid to jump into the fray!
