Default New to Metal Shaping
Hi my name is Ross I’m from Melbourne Australia and just starting to try to learn some metal shaping. I am restoring a 56 Ford F100 and would like to get hints from the people in the know I’m sure I will have loads of questions and hoping to learn as much as I can here.

Hello Ross and welcome. I am restoring a 53 F100 now. Mine has a 351c and C6, what are you using for power?

Hi Ross. Lot's of good info and helpful folk on here (I'm not one of them...). If you are new and trying to learn some metalshaping - and you are from Melbourne... best advice is try to attend one of Peter Tommasini's workshops. Don't tell him I said this, but he is a bit of a metalshping god....
