(Looking into 2013) Any SouthEast Metal Shaping Events?

[backlash18]

Hello,
I had posted a similar question about metal shaping classes on MetalMeet for 2013. Though it was suggested that I ask here as well regarding a meet in Huntsville. Do any of you know of a good shaping class, meet, or event in the SouthEast? I am in Knoxville and could travel within a 250 mi. radius.

Hi Joey, We'll have another DixieLand Metal Shapers Gathering next fall...Lord willing. We haven't picked a date yet but it will be announced here.

This is a link to last years event:

Joey, OJ Higgins will be hosting an event on Mar 10th to include using lead on body seams. He's a bit out of your 250 radius, but it is about a straight shot up 81 to Berryville VA.

He hasn't updated this thread lately, but the metalshaping demo will focus on hand tools, patch panel layout, fabrication, trimming, etc, tipping tools and some dent removal. If you couldn't tell, this is primarily focused for a bunch of gearheads. OJs website:

That's one I'd like to get to.

Thanks MP&C and Kerry for your information.
Robert; that event in VA looks like something of interest being that I am trying to catch up and learn more about hot rods and metal. I may be able to squeeze the wallet to make that one.

Keeping my eyes peeled on this one. I signed up here the week after you had the event in 2012. Looking forward to it.
