Hello all.

Make mandrel bent tubing by day but am always adding capability to my home shop. Have long been into motorsports and machine building.

Also have basic sheet, plate, weld, and light machine capabilities at home but have recently become more interested in more advanced sheet metal forming. Over the last few years I picked up (all 36") Pexto jump shear, brake, and slip roll. Also miscellaneous shrink/stretch, punches, press...etc.

Looking to add a good bead roller and maybe an English wheel later. Looking to learn from folks here and develop my skills.

Best,
Kelly

Welcome to the forum, Kelly.

You do get around. I know you from the metal casting forum. I am the administrator there. If your metal shaping set-up is anything like your foundry set-up, we need some photographs. (He built a foundry to die for.)
