Default Introduction

Hello everyone, My name is Ken Loomis and I'm excited to have found this group. I'm brand new to shaping sheetmetal but I've always admired it from afar. I've fabricated and built dirt track cars and hot rod resto's but only so much as bolt on/off and chassis mod's/welding. Having been a plumber/contractor for 25+ yrs. I'm trying to make a career change that follows more of my passion for metalwork and car fabrication. I look forward to reading many posts and viewing more of the fantastic work thats being created all across the globe! Very exciting stuff. Feel free to email, call or post replies with any suggestions or advise for budding shaper, thanks.
