Default Introduction

Hej,

My name is Jens Tornblad and I live in the forest outside the small town Kristinehamn, Sweden. I'm a father of two and I'm married to a woman who is also interested in cars. For many years I've admired all those guys who manufacture wonderful car body parts out of flat sheet and I've always wanted to be one of them. Two years ago I bought myself an English wheel and got started. I find it difficult but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. The current project is to make new wheel spats for my 1954 Mk7 Jaguar. Unfortunately the work is currently suspended as the work space is occupied with my wife's Saab which has suffered a gearbox failure...

Welcome to the forum, Jens. Many of us here have to juggle our fun projects around our necessary projects....
