Default Howdy from Scotland

Howdy folks,

I'm Mario living in North East Scotland.......I am new to metal forming and I am looking at learning to form metal panels for my project 59 Chevy Biscayne( and other future projects)....I may not be a spring chicken, but I am firm believer in being able to teach an old dog new tricks

I've recently started purchasing some new machines ready for the long resto' road ahead of me...metal folder, shrinker/stretcher...

Next on the "list" is an English wheel, either bought or home made...

I look forward to reading/learning and the metal forming ahead of me...


cheers

Mario

Welcome to the forum Mario - that's a good traditional Scottish name you've got there! What Clan are you with?

In all seriousness, this is the right place to come and learn as it is all 'no nonsense' and dedicated to one subject only - shaping metal.

Don't forget to post some pictures up when you get a minute
