Hey there. New to metal working. Started restoring my first two cars, and after searching for parts, figured out I could possibly shape them myself. I don't get much time to practice. But I have been trying none the less.

Hello Scott and welcome to the site.

Practicing is the best thing you can do to get it right when it comes time to do it for real. Think of a shape you want to make and keep after it until it becomes natural.
