Default New from Boston, Ma

I took metal fab at my vocational high school and loved it! I never pursued a career in it, but have stuck with it as a hobby since I graduated 15 years ago.

Admittedly I don't have much equipment on the way of shaping, but I have Diacro 24" Fingr brake and Shear along with a No.2 bender, electric tubing roller, lathe, mill drill, drill presses, tig and two mig welders, plasma cutter and on and on.

I'm trying to come up with some shop space to build an English wheel and planishing hammer. A Pullmax would be great, but they don't come up for sale of often, or at least I'm not finding them.

I hope to be able to contribute something as I'm sure I will take away lots.

Welcome to the forum, Taki.

RockHillWill had a P5 Pullmax for recently http://allmetalshaping.com/showthread.php?t=16981, just in case you may still be looking. There's others in the classifieds as well.
