Default New Guy from Ft. Worth, Texas

Hello all,
My name is Vernon Phillips and I am a new guy to the forum but not to metal work. I am really into cars and want to learn more about metal shaping. As a teenager I worked in a body shop and learned some crude metal shaping but wish to improve my skills greatly. I am a decent machinist and have both a lathe and mill so fabricating most anything is not an issue. I have also build drag race cars and am decent at race car interiors, meaning raw beaded aluminum panels.
I am very social and would enjoy meeting other in my area and helping each other out and improving our skills as we go.
Thanks,
Vernon
