Default Hello from the Twin Cities.

Hello Everyone!

Excited to thumb through the wealth of knowledge of metal manipulation that makes up this site. I have a great fascination for metal shaping itself, but also for the tools that allow us to get the jobs done. Simple things like hammers and stumps, to vintage vixen files, all the way up to the big boy toys like a Pullmax, Eckold, or a Yoder power machine. Even the homemade tools get the bearings rolling for me. Great to see what people can perform with their collections.

I think my chances of enjoying spring thaw here in Minnesota have greatly diminished.

See you guys around,

Branden

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

Dan, I'm just North of the Twin Cities. I believe I may have been down to your shop once before for a Sedan Deliveries meet. If I'm remembering correctly, you have all kinds of tools and gizmos, things that you've adapted to make your own and make them work better...very cool!

Of course, correct me if I'm wrong.
