Thumbs up Signing in from Upstate NY

Hello, I ran across this site on the off-road fabrication network forum (OFN). I'm Norm King form the Upstate Region of west-central NY. I've been slowly honing my metal working skills for the past 6 years rebuilding my youngest sons jeep (a project that grew way beyond both of our initial expectations). We've build a small three car shop with metal welding, bending capabilities, but I'd like to learn more about how to shape metal panels by hand or with basic shaping tools (planishing hammers, bead rollers, etc.. I look forward to sharing lessons learned in working metal from flat to curvy.
