New kid from Down Under.
Hey guys! My name's Mardy and I'm an apprentice Panel Beater at a restoration shop located in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia. I've been there for about three years. I am into minitrucks and have been building my '87 Ford courier for a few years, doing most of the work myself with the help of the old man.
 I went to the Peter Tommasini seminar over the weekend and was amazed at his metalworking ability. He put me onto this site, saying there was heaps of info and plenty to learn. I have come to this site to hone my skills and grow as a metal fabricator. I want to eventually open my own shop but have a long way to go so I am collecting some tools to practice on my own car at home.

Cheers Peter
