Default Hi from the uk

Hello everybody,

I'm Nathan, I live in the UK and I love cassic and custom motorcycles.

I've been inspired by the creations of Shinya Kimura and I'd love to learn to shape metal to make sculptures and motorcycle parts.

Total newb in shaping metal but I have done a tiny bit of arc and MIG welding at a local college before they cancelled the evening classes.

Looking forward to learning as much as I can from these forums.

Cheers
Nathan

Default Thanks guys

Thanks for the welcome and nice to see that there are lots of UK members here.

I've been reading the beginner threads which are great.

Time to buy a bag and either make or purchase a mallet then.

Cheers
