Default Metal sculptor, looking for tips

Hi Everyone,

I have joined the site to see if I can pick up a few tips on metal shaping. I have made a few aluminum sculptures of shaped panels and I look forward to making more. I have worked with hammers and sandbag, english wheel, and planishing hammer. I am getting the feel for it, but I still have a lot to learn.

Welcome Harry!! My primary work is auto restoration but when I need a break I do art. I find it stress free since it dosn't have to fit a panel perfect.... I've been working with copper but I'm just about out of material.... Lots of good stuff here if you search and lurk.
